Title
Feature Selection of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Nodules
Summary
Feature selection algorithms can be used to identify features with the greatest correlation and predictive power, and ultimately create disease diagnosis and outcome prediction models. This project investigates a data-driven feature selection method combined with support vector machines (SVM) and random forest (RF) to establish a predictive model for the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer. We used GP as a feature selector and then used SVM or RF to create a classifier for the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer from radiological data.
Aims

This project aims to develop a data-driven feature selection method using symbolic genetic programming combined with support vector machines and random forests to build a predictive model for cancer diagnosis.
