Abstract

Microarray based gene expression profiling has been emerged as an efficient technique for cancer classification, as well as for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment purposes. The primary task of microarray data classification is to determine a computational model from the given microarray data that can determine the class of unknown samples. In recent times, microarray technique has gained more attraction in both scientific and in industrial fields. It is important to determine the informative genes that cause the cancer to improve early cancer diagnosis and to give effective chemotherapy treatment. Classifying cancer microarray gene expression data is a challenging task because microarray is a high dimensional-low sample dataset with lots of noisy or irrelevant genes and missing data. Therefore, finding an accurate and an effective cancer classification approach is very significant issue in medical domain. In this paper, we will make a comparative study and we will categorize the effective binary classification approaches that have been applied for cancer microarray gene expression profile. Then we conclude by identifying the most accurate classification method that has the highest classification accuracy along with the smallest number of effective genes.
