Abstract

Feature extraction is a proficient method for reducing dimensions in the analysis and prediction of cancer classification. Microarray procedure has shown great importance in fetching informative genes th at needs enhancement in diagnosis. Microarray data is a challenging task due to high dimensional-low sample dataset with a lot of noisy or irrelevant genes and missing data. In this paper, a comparative study to demonstrate the effectiveness of feature ext raction as a dimensionality reduction process is proposed, and concludes by investigating the most efficient approach that can be used to enhance classification of microarray. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as an unsupervised technique and Partial Least Square (PLS) as a supervised technique are considered, Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier were applied on the dataset. The overall result shows that PLS algorithm provides an improved performance of about 95.2% accu racy compared to PCA algorithms.
