Abstract

Classification method of cancers using cDNA microarrays data was developed using genetic algorithms and neural networks. For gene selection, 2308 genes were ranked using genetic algorithms, and selected by frequency number of selection from 1000 of genetic iterative runs. To calculate fitness values, artificial neural networks are used as classifier. The small, round blue cell tumors (SRBCTs) which is difficult to distinguish via pathological single test was used as test diseases for classification, and the test results showed the 96% of exact classification capability for 25 test samples.
