Summary
This Pull Request addresses issue number #142 from April 19, 2025, which adds support for a' n_shadow_features' parameter in BorutaPy, allowing users to control how many shadow features are generated during feature selection.
Motivation
In some datasets with a very high number of features, creating one shadow per real feature can be expensive and unnecessary. This feature allows greater control and flexibility.
Details
Adds n_shadow_features to init
Modifies _add_shadows_get_imps and _fit logic accordingly
Ensures backward compatibility with the original behavior
Includes a unit test for this feature
