Abstract:Curse of dimensionality" is the contradiction between mathematical requirement for optimal gene signatures to contain no more than 20-30 genes [5] and biological reality observing10-100 times more differentially expressed genes in cancer tumors. Such short optimal signature are the consequence of the small number of patient samples available in a training set for signature calculation compared to the number of correlated DE genes [6,7]. The shortage of cancer samples for large signature calculation is so signi… Show more
