RN-Autoencoder: Reduced Noise Autoencoder for classifying imbalanced cancer genomic data

RN-Autoencoder is a model for cancer classification using imbalanced gene expression datasets. It utilizes the autoencoder to reduce the high dimensionality of the gene expression datasets and then handles the class imbalance using RN-SMOTE. RN-Autoencoder has been evaluated using many different classifiers and many different imbalanced datasets. The performance of many classifiers has improved and some have succeeded in classifying cancer with 100% performance in terms of all used metrics. In addition, RN-Autoencoder outperformed many recent works using the same datasets.
