Prediction of colon cancer using an evolutionary neural network

Colon cancer is second only to lung cancer as a cause of cancer-related mortality in Western countries. Colon cancer is a genetic disease, propagated by the acquisition of somatic alterations that influence gene expression. DNA microarray technology provides a format for the simultaneous measurement of the expression level of thousands of genes in a single hybridization assay. The most exciting result of microarray technology has been the demonstration that patterns of gene expression can distinguish between tumors of different anatomical origin. Standard statistical methodologies in classification and prediction do not work well or even at all when N (a number of samples)
