    $\begingroup$ A non-random correlation might be an indicator that the feature is useful. But I'm not so sure about pre-training tests that could rule ideas out. The paper you link makes it clear that non-linear correlations are not well detected by the available tests, but a neural net has a chance of finding and using them. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 11:28
