Evolutionary fuzzy cluster analysis with Bayesian validation of gene expression profiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Clustering analysis of the gene expression profiles has been used for identifying the functions of unknown genes. Fuzzy clustering method, which is one category of clustering, assigns one sample to multiple clusters as their degrees of membership. It is more appropriate for analyzing gene expression profiles because genes usually belong to multiple functional families. However, general clustering methods have problems that they are sensitive to initialization and can be trapped into local optima. In this paper, we propose an evolutionary fuzzy clustering method with Bayesian validation which uses a genetic algorithm for fuzzy clustering process of gene expression profiles and Bayesian validation method for the fitness evaluation process. We have conducted in-depth experiments to verify the usefulness of the proposed method with well-known gene expression profiles of SRBCT and Saccharomyces.

Clustering for the analysis of the gene expression profiles has been used for identifying the functions of the genes and of unknown genes. Since the genes usually belong to multiple functional families, fuzzy clustering methods are more appropriate than the conventional hard clustering methods. However, it is still required to devise natural way to measure the quality of the cluster partitions ...
متن کاملA validation method for fuzzy clustering of gene expression data
Clustering is a key process in data mining for revealing structure and patterns in data. Fuzzy C-means (FCM) is a popular algorithm using a partitioning approach for clustering. One advantage of FCM is that it converges rapidly. In addition, using fuzzy sets to represent the degrees of cluster membership of each data point provides more information regarding relationships within the data than d...
