Abstract
Microarray based Cancer Pattern Classification is one of the popular techniques in Bioinformatics Research. This Research Work is noticed
that for studying the expression levels through the Gene Expression profiling experiments, thousands of Genes have to be simultaneously
studied to understand the patterns of the Gene Expression or Cancer Pattern. This research work proposed an efficient Cancer Pattern Clas-
sifier called An Enhanced Multi-Objective Pswarm (EMOPS) and it is studied thoroughly in terms of Memory Utilization, Execution Time
(Processing Time), Sensitivity, Specificity, Classification Accuracy and FScore. The results were compared with the recently proposed
classifiers namely Hybrid Ant Bee Algorithm (HABA), Kernelized Fuzzy Rough Set Based Semi Supervised Support Vector Machine
(KFRS-S3VM) and Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MPSO). For analyzing the performances of the proposed model, this
work considered a few cancer patterns namely Bladder, Breast, Colon, Endometrial, Kidney, Leukemia, Lung, Melanoma, Mom-Hodgkin,
Pancreatic, Prostate and Thyroid. From our experimental results, it was noticed that the proposed model outperforms the identified three
classifiers in terms of Memory Utilization, Execution Time (Processing Time), Sensitivity, Specificity, Classification Accuracy and FScore.
To improve the performance of the system further in term of Processing Time, the proposed model Enhanced Multi-Objective Pswarm
(EMOPS) is implemented under Parallel Framework and evaluated. That is the model is tested with Two, Four, Eight and Sixteen Parallel
Processors and from the results, it is established that the Processing Time decreases considerably which will improve the performance of
the Proposed Model.

1. Introduction
This Microarray is a significant technology which facilitating to
study various gene expressions. The microarray data, in general, are
images and these microarray images could be converted into vari-
ous gene expression. These Gene Expressions have been usually
used for Gene Pattern Classifications. From the available literature
survey [1-6], it was noticed that the Data Mining Techniques are
facilitating to classify and predict various Cancer Gene Patterns.
The Classifiers are used to classify microarray samples for pattern
classification. ie the normal microarray sample data set and cancer
pattern samples can be classified with the help of Classifiers [12-
16]. If the samples had a few subtypes of cancer pattern, then we
needed multiclass cancer pattern classifiers [1-4]. From the litera-
ture survey, it was noticed that the Multi-Class Cancer Pattern Clas-
sifier can be employed to improve the classification accuracy [17].
This research work identified a few popular Multi-Class Classifiers
which are recently proposed for Cancer Patter Prediction/Classifi-
cation and all those Classifiers were discussed below.
The proposed model Enhanced Multi-Objective Pswarm (EMOPS)
was implemented with Uni-Processor [1] and Parallel Processors as
well. The detailed procedure of the Parallel Framework was dis-
cussed in the following section.
This Research paper is arranged and written as follows. The Section
2 briefly described the recently proposed Data Mining Classifiers.
The proposed model, Enhanced Multi-Objective Pswarm Based
Classifier (EMOPS) is implemented in Uni-Processing and Parallel
Framework as well is described in Section 3. The results and
strengths of the proposed model in Uni-Processing as well as Par-
allel Processing is discussed at Section 4 and Conclusion was given
in Section 5
2. Recently proposed data mining classifiers
The characteristics and procedures of the three identified Classifiers
namely i. Hybrid Ant Bee Algorithm (HABA) [4], ii. Kernelized
Fuzzy Rough Set Based Semi Supervised Support Vector Machine
(KFRS-S3VM) [1] and iii. Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimi-
zation (MPSO) [6], [21-24] have been discussed in the following
subsections.
2.1. Hybrid ant bee algorithm (HABA)
Ant Colony Optimization [1], [4], [10], [26] does maintain a colony
of ants and make possible Permissible Ranges (PRs) in association
with values proposed for a design model. Here, each and every ant
is permitted to select a Permissible Range which will represent the
path.
When all ants have chosen their paths, then the discrete value asso-
ciated with the selected path is taken and for all ants, this is consid-
ered as candidate value. Then, the system evaluates the Artificial
Bee Colony Approach by combining the candidate values of all the
