Estimation of relevant variables on high-dimensional biological patterns using iterated weighted kernel functions. by Sergio Rojas-Galeano, Emily Hsieh, Dan Agranoff, Sanjeev Krishna, Delmiro Fernandez-Reyes

“…The resulting variable subsets achieved classification accuracies of 99% on Human African Trypanosomiasis, 91% on Tuberculosis, and 91% on Malaria serum proteomic profiles with fewer than 20% of variables selected. Our method scaled-up to dimensionalities of much higher orders of magnitude as shown with gene expression microarray datasets in which we obtained classification accuracies close to 90% with fewer than 1% of the total number of variables.…”
