This paper proposes a new method for tumor classification using gene expression data, which mainly contains three steps. Firstly, the original DNA microarray gene expression data are selected using t-statistics. Secondly, the selected genes are modeled by Independent Component Analysis (ICA). Finally, Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to classify the modeling data. To show the validity of the proposed method, we apply it to classify two DNA microarray data sets involving various human normal and tumor tissue samples. The experimental results show that the method is efficient and feasible.

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.
