This paper investigates the gene selection problem for microarray data with small samples and variant correlation. Most existing algorithms usually require expensive computational effort, especially under thousands of gene conditions. The main objective of this paper is to effectively select the most informative genes from microarray data, while making the computational expenses affordable. This is achieved by proposing a novel forward gene selection algorithm (FGSA). To overcome the small samples' problem, the augmented data technique is firstly employed to produce an augmented data set. Taking inspiration from other gene selection methods, the L2-norm penalty is then introduced into the recently proposed fast regression algorithm to achieve the group selection ability. Finally, by defining a proper regression context, the proposed method can be fast implemented in the software, which significantly reduces computational burden. Both computational complexity analysis and simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in comparison with other approaches

This paper investigates the two-stage stepwise identification for a class of nonlinear dynamic systems that can be described by linear-in-the-parameters models, and the model has to be built from a very large pool of basis functions or model terms. The main objective is to improve the compactness of the model that is obtained by the forward stepwise methods, while retaining the computational efficiency. The proposed algorithm first generates an initial model using a forward stepwise procedure. The significance of each selected term is then reviewed at the second stage and all insignificant ones are replaced, resulting in an optimised compact model with significantly improved performance. The main contribution of this paper is that these two stages are performed within a well-defined regression context, leading to significantly reduced computational complexity. The efficiency of the algorithm is confirmed by the computational complexity analysis, and its effectiveness is demonstrated by the simulation results.

A forward and backward least angle regression (LAR) algorithm is proposed to construct the nonlinear autoregressive model with exogenous inputs (NARX) that is widely used to describe a large class of nonlinear dynamic systems. The main objective of this paper is to improve model sparsity and generalization performance of the original forward LAR algorithm. This is achieved by introducing a replacement scheme using an additional backward LAR stage. The backward stage replaces insignificant model terms selected by forward LAR with more significant ones, leading to an improved model in terms of the model compactness and performance. A numerical example to construct four types of NARX models, namely polynomials, radial basis function (RBF) networks, neuro fuzzy and wavelet networks, is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique in comparison with some popular methods.
