Hypergraph-based adaptive manifold learning for gene selection
摘要
Gene selection from microarray data is a complex and important problem, particularly due to the high dimensionality and limited availability of labeled samples. In our previously published work, we proposed a semi-supervised method named Adaptive manifold learning for gene selection (AGMLGS), which demonstrated promising performance by using manifold learning on graph structures. Building on this foundation, we now introduce Hypergraph-based adaptive manifold learning for gene selection (HAMLGS) an improved approach that captures higher-order relationships among samples using a hypergraph representation. HAMLGS provides a closed-form solution that converges in a few iterations. Extensive experiments conducted on fifteen benchmark microarray datasets show that HAMLGS consistently outperforms AGMLGS and five other state-of-the-art feature selection methods in terms of average precision and F1 score. This comparison highlights the critical role of hypergraph modeling in effectively capturing complex structures in gene expression data. The MATLAB code for the proposed model is accessible at the following URL https://github.com/ml-lab-sau/HAMLGS.
