Abstract

A combination of gene ranking, dimensional reduction, and recursive feature elimination (RFE) using a BP-MLP artificial neural network (ANN) was used to select genes for DNA microarray classification. Use of k-means cluster analysis for dimensional reduction and maximum sensitivity for RFE resulted in 64-gene models with fewer invariant and correlated features when compared with PCA and mimimum error. In conclusion, k-means cluster analysis and sensitivity may be better suited for classifying diseases for which gene expression is more strongly influenced by pathway heterogeneity.
