Since tumor data Received 22 January 2012 in gene expression contain thousands of attributes, attribute selection for tumor data in gene expression Received in revised form 26 June 2012 becomes a key point for tumor classification. Inspired by the concept of gain ratio in decision tree theory, Accepted 23 July 2012 an attribute selection method based on fuzzy gain ratio under the framework of fuzzy rough set theory is Available online 16 August 2012 proposed. The approach is compared to several other approaches on three real world tumor data sets in gene expression. Results show that the proposed method is effective. This work may supply an optional Keywords: strategy for dealing with tumor data in gene expression or other applications. Attribute selection Mutual information
