الوصف: Understanding and identifying different types of single molecules' diffusion that occur in a broad range of systems (including living matter) is extremely important, as it can provide information on the physical and chemical characteristics of particles' surroundings. In recent years, an ever-growing number of methods have been proposed to overcome some of the limitations of the mean-squared displacements approach to tracer diffusion. In March 2020, the Anomalous Diffusion (AnDi) Challenge was launched by a community of international scientists to provide a framework for an objective comparison of the available methods for anomalous diffusion. In this paper, we introduce a feature-based machine learning method developed in response to Task 2 of the challenge, i.e. the classification of different types of diffusion. We discuss two sets of attributes that may be used for the classification of single-particle tracking data. The first one was proposed as our contribution to the AnDi Challenge. The latter is the result of our attempt to improve the performance of the classifier after the deadline of the competition. Extreme gradient boosting was used as the classification model. Although the deep-learning approach constitutes the state-of-the-art technology for data classification in many domains, we deliberately decided to pick this traditional machine learning algorithm due to its superior interpretability. After the extension of the feature set our classifier achieved the accuracy of 0.83, which is comparable with the top methods based on neural networks.
