In recent years, medical data analysis has become paramount in delivering accurate diagnoses for various diseases. The plethora of medical data sources, encompassing disease types, disease-related proteins, ligands for proteins, and molecular drug components, necessitates adopting effective disease analysis and diagnosis methods. Soft computing techniques, including swarm algorithms and machine learning (ML) methods, have emerged as superior approaches. While ML techniques such as classification and clustering have gained prominence, feature selection methods are crucial in extracting optimal features and reducing data dimensions. This review paper presents a comprehensive overview of soft computing techniques for tackling medical data problems through classifying and analyzing medical data. The focus lies mainly on the classification of medical data resources. A detailed examination of various techniques developed for classifying numerous diseases is provided. The review encompasses an in-depth exploration of multiple ML methods designed explicitly for disease detection and classification. Additionally, the review paper offers insights into the underlying biological disease mechanisms and highlights several medical and chemical databases that facilitate research in this field. Furthermore, the review paper outlines emerging trends and identifies the key challenges in biomedical data analysis. It sheds light on this research domain’s exciting possibilities and future directions. The enhanced understanding of soft computing techniques and their practical applications and limitations will contribute to advancing biomedical data analysis and support healthcare professionals in making accurate diagnoses.

Due to the high cost of labelling data, a lot of partially hybrid data are existed in many practical applications. Uncertainty measure (UM) can supply new viewpoints for analyzing data. They can help us in disclosing the substantive characteristics of data. Although there are some UMs to evaluate the uncertainty of hybrid data, they cannot be trivially transplanted into partially hybrid data. The existing studies often replace missing labels with pseudo-labels, but pseudo-labels are not real labels. When encountering high label error rates, work will be difficult to sustain. In view of the above situation, this paper studies four UMs for partially hybrid data and proposed semi-supervised attribute reduction algorithms. A decision information system with partially labeled hybrid data (p-HIS) is first divided into two decision information systems: one is the decision information system with labeled hybrid data (l-HIS) and the other is the decision information system with unlabeled hybrid data (u-HIS). Then, four degrees of importance on a attribute subset in a p-HIS are defined based on indistinguishable relation, distinguishable relation, dependence function, information entropy and information amount. We discuss the difference and contact among these UMs. They are the weighted sum of l-HIS and u-HIS determined by the missing rate and can be considered as UMs of a p-HIS. Next, numerical experiments and statistical tests on 12 datasets verify the effectiveness of these UMs. Moreover, an adaptive semi-supervised attribute reduction algorithm of a p-HIS is proposed based on the selected important degrees, which can automatically adapt to various missing rates. Finally, the results of experiments and statistical tests on 12 datasets show the proposed algorithm is statistically better than some stat-of-the-art algorithms according to classification accuracy.
