  • Abstract
    The problem of marker selection in DNA microarray analysis has been mostly addressed by linear methods. RFE-SVM is such a representative method where a linear kernel is used as the basic tool to address the problem. On the other hand a single neuron is known to be a linear estimator. In this study we explore such a single neuron to address the problem of marker selection.
