Machine learning methods have of late made significant efforts to solving multidisciplinary problems in the field of cancer classification in microarray gene expression data. These tasks are characterized by a large number of features and a few observations, making the modeling a nontrivial undertaking. In this study, we apply entropic filter methods for gene selection, in combination with several off-the-shelf classifiers. The introduction of bootstrap resampling techniques permits the achievement of more stable performance estimates. Our findings show that the proposed methodology permits a drastic reduction in dimension, offering attractive solutions in terms of both prediction accuracy and number of explanatory genes; a dimensionality reduction technique preserving discrimination capabilities is used for visualization of the selected genes. |
