A genetic algorithm approach for predicting ribonucleic acid sequencing data classification using KNN and decision tree

Malaria larvae accept explosive variable lifecycle as they spread across numerous mosquito vector stratosphere. Transcriptomes arise in thousands of diverse parasites. Ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq) is a prevalent gene expression that has led to enhanced understanding of genetic queries. RNA-seq tests transcript of gene expression, and provides methodological enhancements to machine learning procedures. Researchers have proposed several methods in evaluating and learning biological data. Genetic algorithm (GA) as a feature selection process is used in this study to fetch relevant information from the RNA-Seq Mosquito Anopheles gambiae malaria vector dataset, and evaluates the results using kth nearest neighbor (KNN) and decision tree classification algorithms. The experimental results obtained a classification accuracy of 88.3 and 98.3 percents respectively

Deterministic Classifiers Accuracy Optimization for Cancer Microarray Data

The objective of this study was to improve classification accuracy in cancer microarray gene expression data using a collection of machine learning algorithms available in WEKA. State of the art deterministic classification methods, such as: Kernel Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, Stochastic Gradient Descent and Logistic Model Trees were applied on publicly available cancer microarray datasets aiming to discover regularities that provide insights to help characterization and diagnosis correctness on each cancer typology. The implemented models, relying on 10-fold cross-validation, parameterized to enhance accuracy, reached accuracy above 90%. Moreover, although the variety of methodologies, no significant statistic differences were registered between them, at significance level 0.05, confirming that all the selected methods are effective for this type of analysis.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Feature Selection Approaches In Antibody Display

Molecular diagnostics tools provide specific data that have high dimensionality due to many factors analyzed in one experiment and few records due to high costs of the experiments. This study addresses the problem of dimensionality in melanoma patient antibody display data by applying data mining feature selection techniques. The article describes feature selection ranking and subset selection approaches and analyzes the performance of various methods evaluating selected feature subsets using classification algorithms C4.5, Random Forest, SVM and Naïve Bayes, which have to differentiate between cancer patient data and healthy donor data. The feature selection methods include correlation-based, consistency based and wrapper subset selection algorithms as well as statistical, information evaluation, prediction potential of rules and SVM feature selection evaluation of single features for ranking purposes

Evaluation of Support Vector Machine and Decision Tree for Emotion Recognition of Malay Folklores

In this paper, the performance of Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Decision Tree (DT) in classifying emotions from Malay folklores is presented. This work is the continuation of our storytelling speech synthesis work to add emotions for a more natural storytelling. A total of 100 documents from children short stories are collected and used as the datasets of the text-based emotion recognition experiment. Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) is extracted from the text documents and classified using SVM and DT. Four types of common emotions, which are happy, angry, fearful and sad are classified using the two classifiers. Results showed that DT outperformed SVM by more than 22.2% accuracy rate. However, the overall emotion recognition is only at moderate rate suggesting an improvement is needed in future work. The accuracy of the emotion recognition should be improved in future studies by using semantic feature extractors or by incorporating deep learning for classification

Decision Tree Classifiers in Bioinformatics

This paper presents a literature review of articles related to the use of decision tree classifiers in gene microarray data analysis published in the last ten years. The main focus is on researches solving the cancer classification problem using single decision tree classifiers (algorithms C4.5 and CART) and decision tree forests (e.g. random forests) showing strengths and weaknesses of the proposed methodologies when compared to other popular classification methods. The article also touches the use of decision tree classifiers in gene selection
