Resumen |
Feature selection is a common solution to microarray analysis. Previous approaches either select features based on classical statistical tests that can be tuned up with a classifier, or using regularization penalties incorporated in the cost function. Here we propose to use a feature ranking and weighting scheme instead, which combines statistical techniques with a weighted k-NN classifier using a modified forward selection procedure. We demonstrate that classification accuracy of our proposal outperforms existing methods on a range of public microarray gene expression datasets. The proposed method is also compared to state-of-the-art feature selection algorithms by means of the Friedman test. Although a bunch of feature selection techniques has been used for genomic data, the experimental results show the classification superiority of our method on most of the present gene expression datasets. |
