Feature agglomeration vs. univariate selection

This example compares 2 dimensionality reduction strategies:

• univariate feature selection with Anova
• feature agglomeration with Ward hierarchical clustering

Both methods are compared in a regression problem using a BayesianRidge as supervised estimator.
