Prediction by supervised principal components

چکیده
In regression problems where the number of predictors greatly exceeds the number of observations, conventional regression techniques may produce unsatisfactory results. We describe a technique called supervised principal components that can be applied to this type of problem. Supervised principal components is similar to conventional principal components analysis except that it uses a subset of the predictors that are selected based on their association with the outcome. Supervised principal components can be applied to regression and generalized regression problems such as survival analysis. It compares favorably to other techniques for this type of problem, and can also account for the effects of other covariates and help identify which predictor variables are most important. We also provide asymptotic consistency results to help support our empirical findings. These methods could become important tools for DNA microarray data, where they may be used to more accurately diagnose and treat cancer.

Supervised Wavelet Method to Predict Patient Survival from Gene Expression Data
In microarray studies, the number of samples is relatively small compared to the number of genes per sample. An important aspect of microarray studies is the prediction of patient survival based on their gene expression profile. This naturally calls for the use of a dimension reduction procedure together with the survival prediction model. In this study, a new method based on combining wavelet ...
متن کاملPatterns Prediction of Chemotherapy Sensitivity in Cancer Cell lines Using FTIR Spectrum, Neural Network and Principal Components Analysis
Drug resistance enables cancer cells to break away from cytotoxic effect of anticancer drugs. Identification of resistant phenotype is very important because it can lead to effective treatment plan. There is an interest in developing classifying models of resistance phenotype based on the multivariate data. We have investigated a vibrational spectroscopic approach in order to characterize a...

متن کاملNonparametric Method for Genomics-Based Prediction of Performance of Quantitative Traits Involving Epistasis in Plant Breeding
Genomic selection (GS) procedures have proven useful in estimating breeding value and predicting phenotype with genome-wide molecular marker information. However, issues of high dimensionality, multicollinearity, and the inability to deal effectively with epistasis can jeopardize accuracy and predictive ability. We, therefore, propose a new nonparametric method, pRKHS, which combines the featur...

This study explores a semi-supervised classification approach using random forest as a base classifier to classify the low-back disorders (LBDs) risk associated with the industrial jobs. Semi-supervised classification approach uses unlabeled data together with the small number of labelled data to create a better classifier. The results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those o...
