Deep learning-based gene selection in comprehensive gene analysis in pancreatic cancer

Abstract The selection of genes that are important for obtaining gene expression data is challenging. Here, we developed a deep learning-based feature selection method suitable for gene selection. Our novel deep learning model includes an additional feature-selection layer. After model training, the...
