摘要：After diagnosing the cancer, the next step is to identify the staging of the cancer to start with the appropriate treatment plans. There are different kinds of gynaecological cancers and this research lays emphasis on cervical and ovarian cancer types with their staging classifications. The cervical and ovarian cancers data from SEER registry are used in this work. This work intends to propose an optimized classification method for staging prediction in gynaecological cancers through fused feature selection process that aimed to provide an optimal feature subset. The fused feature selection process includes the hybridization of relief filter approach with wrapper method of genetic algorithm to produce revised feature subset of data as an outcome. Accordingly, this work attained an improved feature subset through fused feature selection process for precise classification of cervical and ovarian cancer stages by identifying their significant features. The predictive models are established with 10-fold cross validation using major classification algorithms like C5.0, Random Forest and KNN. The classification results are attained for the respective types of cervical, ovarian cancer stages and the stage-wise classification based on patients age also obtained through this proposed method. The results portrayed that the women in the age group of 45 and above are more critical with the incidence of cervical and ovarian cancer types. Random Forest method has shown progressive accuracy rate with progressive percentage of other performance outcomes. Also, this work recognized that the best and optimal feature subset selection could condense the complexity of the predictive model.
