RETRACTED ARTICLE: Multi-stage biomedical feature selection extraction algorithm for cancer detection

Abstract

Cancer is a significant cause of death worldwide. Early cancer detection is greatly aided by machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to gene microarray data sets (microarray data). Despite this, there is a significant discrepancy between the number of gene features in the microarray data set and the number of samples. Because of this, it is crucial to identify markers for gene array data. Existing feature selection algorithms, however, generally use long-standing, are limited to single-condition feature selection and rarely take feature extraction into account. This work proposes a Multi-stage algorithm for Biomedical Deep Feature Selection (MBDFS) to address this issue. In the first, three feature selection techniques are combined for thorough feature selection, and feature subsets are obtained; in the second, an unsupervised neural network is used to create the best representation of the feature subset to enhance final classification accuracy. Using a variety of metrics, including a comparison of classification results before and after feature selection and the performance of alternative feature selection methods, we evaluate MBDFS's efficacy. The experiments demonstrate that although MBDFS uses fewer features, classification accuracy is either unchanged or enhanced.

Clustering-based spatial analysis (CluSA) framework through graph neural network for chronic kidney disease prediction using histopathology images

“…In this study, we used multi-stage feature extraction and classification pipelines with a random forest classifier to predict the kidney function at the biopsy and 1-year prediction, respectively. In general, multi-stage feature extraction and classification pipelines have high predictive accuracy compared to the end-to-end learning which requires a huge amount of data to obtain a high accuracy 42 , 43 . Further, Random Forest classifier is a commonly used machine learning algorithm which provides a higher level of accuracy in predicting outcomes over the decision tree algorithm.…”

Dimension Reduction and Classifier-Based Feature Selection for Oversampled Gene Expression Data and Cancer Classification

“…This is similar to the filter-wrapper and embedded technique utilized for gene expression data in [12]. However, Keshta et al [19] proposed a multi-stage algorithm for the extraction and selection of features in a cancer detection study. It was reported that despite the reduction in the number of features used for classification, the performance of classifiers was either enhanced or unchanged.…”
