Abstract
Monitoring gene expression profiles is a novel approach in cancer diagnosis. Several studies showed that prediction of cancer types using gene expression data is promising and very informative. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is one of the classification methods successfully applied to the cancer diagnosis problems using gene expression data. However, its optimal extension to more than two classes was not obvious, which might impose limitations in its application to multiple tumor types. In this paper, we analyze a couple of published multiple cancer types data sets by the multicategory SVM, which is a recently proposed extension of the binary SVM.
