The basic idea is running a linear or logistic regression of the target on the Shapley values of
the original features, on the validation set,
discarding the features with negative coefficients, and ranking/filtering the rest according to their
statistical significance. For motivation and details, see the [example notebook](https://github.com/transferwise/shap-select/blob/main/docs/Quick%20feature%20selection%20through%20regression%20on%20Shapley%20values.ipynb)

Earlier packages using Shapley values for feature selection exist, the advantages of this one are
* Regression on the **validation set** to combat overfitting
