Abstract

Cancer is a leading cause of death and majority of cancer patients are diagnosed in the late stages of cancer by using conventional methods. The gene expression microarray technology is applied to detect and diagnose most types of cancers in their early stages. Furthermore, it allows researchers to analyze thousands of genes simultaneously. To acquire knowledge from gene expression data, data mining methods are needed. Due to the rapid evolution of cancer detection and diagnosis techniques, a survey of modern techniques is desirable. This study reviews and provide a detailed description of these techniques. As a result, it helps to enhance existing techniques for cancer detection and diagnosis as well as guiding researchers to develop new approaches.
