Identifying the key genes related to tumors from gene expression data with a large number of features is important for the accurate classification of tumors and to make special treatment decisions. In recent years, unsupervised feature selection algorithms have attracted considerable attention in the field of gene selection as they can find the most discriminating subsets of genes, namely the potential information in biological data. Recent research also shows that maintaining the important structure of data is necessary for gene selection. However, most current feature selection methods merely capture the local structure of the original data while ignoring the importance of the global structure of the original data. We believe that the global structure and local structure of the original data are equally important, and so the selected genes should maintain the essential structure of the original data as far as possible. In this paper, we propose a new, adaptive, unsupervised feature selection scheme which not only reconstructs high-dimensional data into a low-dimensional space with the constraint of feature distance invariance but also employs ${\ell }_{2,1}$-norm to enable a matrix with the ability to perform gene selection embedding into the local manifold structure-learning framework. Moreover, an effective algorithm is developed to solve the optimization problem based on the proposed scheme. Comparative experiments with some classical schemes on real tumor datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper considers the physical layer security (PLS) of a simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) relay communication system composed of a legitimate source–destination pair and some eavesdroppers. Supposing a disturbance of channel status information (CSI) between relay and eavesdroppers in a bounded ellipse, we intend to design a robust beamformer to maximum security rate in the worst case on the constraints of relay energy consumption. To handle this non-convex optimization problem, we introduce a slack variable to transform the original problem into two sub-problems firstly, then an algorithm employing a semidefinite relaxation (SDR) technique and S-procedure is proposed to tackle above two sub-problems. Although our study was conducted in the scene of a direct link among source, destination, and eavesdroppers that is non-existing, we demonstrate that our conclusions can be easily extended to the scene for which a direct link among source, destination and eavesdroppers exist. Numerical simulation results compared with the benchmark scheme are provided to prove the effectiveness and superior performance of our algorithm.
