Genomic feature selection by coverage design optimization

Predicting CpG Islands and Their Relationship with Genomic Feature in Cattle by Hidden Markov Model Algorithm

Cattle supply an important source of nutrition for humans in the world. CpG islands (CGIs) are very important and useful, as they carry functionally relevant epigenetic loci for whole genome studies. As a matter of fact, there have been no formal analyses of CGIs at the DNA sequence level in cattle genomes and therefore this study was carried out to fill the gap. We used hidden markov model alg...

Optimization Of Neural Network Inputs By Feature Selection Methods

The main idea of this paper is to compare feature selection methods for dimension reduction of the original dataset to reach optimization of steganalysis process by artificial neural networks (ANN). Feature selection methods are tools based on statistic exploited in pre-processing step of data mining workflow. These methods are very useful in a dimension reduction, removing of insignificant dat...

Ant Colony Optimization Toward Feature Selection

Particle Swarm Optimization based Feature Selection

Feature Selection is a pre-processing step in knowledge discovery from data (KDD) which aims at retrieving relevant data from the database beforehand. It imparts quality to the results of data mining tasks by selecting optimal feature set from larger set of features. Various feature selection techniques have been proposed in past which, unfortunately, suffer from unavoidable problems such as hi...

Auto-optimization of a Feature Selection Algorithm

Advanced visualization algorithms are typically computationally expensive but highly data parallel which make them attractive candidates for GPU architectures. However, porting algorithms on a GPU still remains a challenging process. The Mint programming model addresses this issue with its simple and high level interface. It targets the users who seek real-time performance without investing in ...
