Abstract

Microarray datasets comprise a large number of gene expression values and a relatively small number of samples. Feature selection algorithms are very useful in these situations in order to find a compact subset of informative features. We propose a redundancy control method for algorithms in the recently proposed SPEC family of spectral-based feature selection algorithms. This method is applied to find relevant genes in order to cluster samples corresponding to three kinds of cancer: lung, breast and colon.
