TL;DR: A novel feature selection method based on the minimum spanning tree (MST) to seek neuromarkers for ASD and shows improved classification performance, i.e., the accuracy, accuracy, and specificity were 86.7, 87.5, and 85.7%, respectively.
Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder originating in infancy and childhood that may cause language barriers and social difficulties. However, in the diagnosis of ASD, the current machine learning methods still face many challenges in determining the location of biomarkers. Here, we proposed a novel feature selection method based on the minimum spanning tree (MST) to seek neuromarkers for ASD. First, we constructed an undirected graph with nodes of candidate features. At the same time, a weight calculation method considering both feature redundancy and discriminant ability was introduced. Second, we utilized the Prim algorithm to construct the MST from the initial graph structure. Third, the sum of the edge weights of all connected nodes was sorted for each node in the MST. Then, N features corresponding to the nodes with the first N smallest sum were selected as classification features. Finally, the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm was used to evaluate the discriminant performance of the aforementioned feature selection method. Comparative experiments results show that our proposed method has improved the ASD classification performance, i.e., the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were 86.7%, 87.5%, and 85.7%, respectively.

TL;DR: The results show that WWM2 is the best algorithms for solving the Minimum Spanning Tree problem and GNU OCTAVE is used for coding and visualization.
Abstract: The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) is one of the famous problems that is used mostly as the backbone in many network design problems. Given a graph G(V,E), where V is the set of vertices and E is the set of edges connecting vertices in V, and for every edge eij there is an associated weight cij ≥0. The Multi Period Degree Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree (MPDCMST) is a problem of finding an MST while also considering the degree constrained on every vertex, and satisfying vertices installation requirement on every period. Two algorithms (WWM1 and WWM2) are proposed for solving this problem. GNU OCTAVE is used for coding and visualization. GNU is a recursive acronym for "GNU's Not Unix!", and that name is chosen because it is likeUnix but differs from Unix because it is free and contains no Unix code. Those algorithms were implemented using 300 randomly generated problems. Moreover, we compare WWM1 and WWM2 algorithms using existing data from the literature and the results show that WWM2 is the best.
