Description
Summary:碩士 === 元智大學 === 資訊工程學系 === 95 === In this thesis, a method to classify proteomic data and to find biomarker for cancer prediction is proposed. The proposed method includes two stages: feature extraction and classification. In the stage of feature extraction, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to search all possible subsets of a large set of candidate features (M/Z ratios) and the multilayer feedforward neural network is used as a measure of fitness for these subsets, which is in turn used by the GA to develop subsets of salient features. In the stage of classification, the selected features by GA/ANN are applied to test data to show that they can successfully distinguish cancer symptom. Various experiments have been conducted to prove that the proposed GA/ANN method has almost 100% classification accuracy.
