Abstract

Gene expression data are expected to be of significant help in the development of efficient cancer diagnosis and classification platforms. One problem arising from these data is how to select a small subset of genes from thousands of genes and a few samples that are inherently noisy. This research aims to select a small subset of informative genes from the gene expression data that will maximise the classification accuracy. A model for gene selection and classification has been developed by using a filter approach together with an improved hybrid of the genetic algorithm and a support vector machine classifier. It is shown that the classification accuracy of the proposed model is useful for the cancer classification of one that widely used gene expression benchmark data set.
