Classification of bioinformatics dataset using finite impulse response extreme learning machine for cancer diagnosis
In this paper, the classification of the two binary bioinformatics datasets, leukemia and colon tumor, is further studied by using the recently developed neural network-based finite impulse response extreme learning machine (FIR-ELM). It is seen that a time series analysis of the microarray samples is first performed to determine the filtering properties of the hidden layer of the neural classifier with FIR-ELM for feature identification. The linear separability of the data patterns in the microarray datasets is then studied. For improving the robustness of the neural classifier against noise and errors, a frequency domain gene feature selection algorithm is also proposed. It is shown in the simulation results that the FIR-ELM algorithm has an excellent performance for the classification of bioinformatics data in comparison with many existing classification algorithms.
