microarray data

Gene expression datasets have been successfully applied for a variety of purposes, including cancer classification.  The challenges faced in developing effective classifiers for expression datasets are high dimensionality and over-fitting.  Gene selection is an effective and efficient method to overcome these challenges and improve the predictive accuracy of a classifier.  Based on PROMETHEE, this paper introduces a multi-filter ensemble approach by integrating the results of two potential filters namely MaC$\Psi$-filter and PCRWG-filter to pre-select the most informati
