Abstract:

With the advancement of metagenome data mining science has become focused on microarrays. Microarrays are datasets with a large number of genes that are usually irrelevant to the output class; hence, the process of gene selection or feature selection is essential. So, it follows that you can remove redundant genes and increase the speed and accuracy of classification. After applying the gene selection, the dataset is reduced and detection of differentially abundant genes facilitated with more accuracy. This will, in turn, increases the power of genes which are correctly detected statistically differentially abundant in two or more phenotypes. The method presented in this study is a two-stage method for functional analysis of metagenomes.  The first stage uses a combination of the filter and wrapper gene selection method, which includes the ant colony algorithm and utilizes fuzzy rough sets to calculate the information gain ratio as an evaluation measure in the ant colony algorithm. The set of features from the first stage is used as input in the second stage, and then the negative binomial distribution is used to detect genes which are statistically differentially abundant in two or more phenotypes. Applying the proposed method on a microarray dataset it becomes clear that the proposed method increases the accuracy of the classifier and selects a subset of genes that have a minimum length and maximum accuracy.

Fuzzy-rough Information Gain Ratio Approach to Filter-wrapper Feature Selection

Feature selection for various applications has been carried out for many years in many different research areas. However, there is a trade-off between finding feature subsets with minimum length and increasing the classification accuracy. In this paper, a filter-wrapper feature selection approach based on fuzzy-rough gain ratio is proposed to tackle this problem. As a search strategy, a modifie...

Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease using Neuro-fuzzy-based Method

Background & Aim: Coronary artery disease is one of the most common diseases in different societies. Coronary angiography is established as one of the best methods for diagnosis of this disease. Angiography is an invasive and costly method. Furthermore, it is associated with risks such as death, heart attack, and stroke. Thus, this study introduces a neuro-fuzzy-based method which can help the ...

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....

A hybrid filter-based feature selection method via hesitant fuzzy and rough sets concepts

High dimensional microarray datasets are difficult to classify since they have many features with small number ofinstances and imbalanced distribution of classes. This paper proposes a filter-based feature selection method to improvethe classification performance of microarray datasets by selecting the significant features. Combining the concepts ofrough sets, weighted rough set, fuzzy rough se...
