Feature selection approaches have been widely applied to deal with the small sample size problem in the analysis of micro-array datasets. For the multiclass problem, the proposed methods are based on the idea of selecting a gene subset to distinguish all classes. However, it will be more effective to solve a multiclass problem by splitting it into a set of two-class problems and solving each problem with a respective classification system.
