A neuro-fuzzy inference system that recognizes the expression patterns of genes in microarray gene expression (MGE) data, called GeneCFE-ANFIS, is proposed to infer gene interactions. In this study, three primary features are utilized to extract genes' expression patterns and used as inputs to the neuro-fuzzy inference system. The proposed algorithm learns expression patterns from the known genetic interactions, such as the interactions confirmed by qRT-PCR experiments or collected through text-mining technique by surveying previously published literatures, and then predicts other gene interactions according to the learned patterns. The proposed neuro-fuzzy inference system was applied to a public yeast MGE dataset. Two simulations were conducted and checked against 112 pairs of qRT-PCR confirmed gene interactions and 77 TFs (Transcriptional Factors) pairs collected from literature respectively to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm.

Statistical analysis of microarray gene expression data has recently attracted a great deal of attention. One problem of interest is to relate genes to survival outcomes of patients with the purpose of building regression models for the prediction of future patients' survival based on their gene expression data. For this, several authors have discussed the use of the proportional hazards or Cox model after reducing the dimension of the gene expression data. This paper presents a new approach to conduct the Cox survival analysis of microarray gene expression data with the focus on models' predictive ability. The method modifies the correlation principal component regression (Sun, 1995) to handle the censoring problem of survival data. The results based on simulated data and a set of publicly available data on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma show that the proposed method works well in terms of models' robustness and predictive ability in comparison with some existing partial least squares approaches. Also, the new approach is simpler and easy to implement.
