The objectives of this paper were to 1) develop an empirical method for\nselecting relevant attributes for modelling drought, and 2) select the most\nrelevant attribute for drought modelling and predictions in the Greater Horn of\nAfrica (GHA). Twenty four attributes from different domain areas were used for\nthis experimental analysis. Two attribute selection algorithms were used for\nthe current study: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and correlation-based\nattribute selection (CAS). Using the PCA and CAS algorithms, the 24 attributes\nwere ranked by their merit value. Accordingly, 15 attributes were selected for\nmodelling drought in GHA. The average merit values for the selected attributes\nranged from 0.5 to 0.9. Future research may evaluate the developed methodology\nusing relevant classification techniques and quantify the actual information\ngain from the developed approach.\n
