In ovarian cancer, benign tumors turn malignant, but the point of transition is difficult to predict and diagnose. The 5-year survival rate of all types of ovarian cancer is 44%, but this can be improved to 92% if the cancer is found and treated before it spreads beyond the ovary. However, only 15% of all ovarian cancers are found at this early stage. Therefore, the ability to automatically identify and diagnose ovarian cancer precisely and efficiently as the tissue changes from benign to invasive is important for clinical treatment and for increasing the cure rate. This study proposes a new ovarian carcinoma classification model using two algorithms: a novel discretization of food sources for an artificial bee colony (DfABC), and a support vector machine (SVM). For the first time in the literature, oncogene detection using this method is also investigated.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results: A novel bio-inspired computing model and hybrid algorithms combining DfABC and SVM was applied to ovarian carcinoma and oncogene classification. This study used the human ovarian cDNA expression database to collect 41 patient samples and 9600 genes in each pathological stage. Feature selection methods were used to detect and extract 15 notable oncogenes. We then used the DfABC-SVM model to examine these 15 oncogenes, dividing them into eight different classifications according to their gene expressions of various pathological stages. The average accuracyof the eight classification experiments was 94.76%. This research also found some oncogenes that had not been discovered or indicated in previous scientific studies. The main contribution of this research is the proof that these newly discovered oncogenes are highly related to ovarian or other cancers.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Availability and implementation: \u00a0http:\/\/mht.mis.nchu.edu.tw\/moodle\/course\/view.php?id=7<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Contact: \u00a0mychen@nutc.edu.tw<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btu782","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,27]],"date-time":"2014-11-27T01:24:52Z","timestamp":1417051492000},"page":"1102-1110","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A bio-inspired computing model for ovarian carcinoma classification and oncogene detection"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Meng-Hsiun","family":"Tsai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"},{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mu-Yen","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Steve G.","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yao-Ching","family":"Hung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hsin-Chieh","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1 Department of Management Information System and 2Institute of Genomics and Bioinformatics, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan, 3Department of Information Management, National Taichung University of Science and Technology, Taichung City 404, Taiwan, 4Institute of Nanotechnology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu City 300, Taiwan and 5Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, China Medical University and Hospital, Taichung City 404, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023051309142326800_btu782-B1","first-page":"559","article-title":"Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of CCND3 gene as marker of progression in bladder carcinoma","volume":"27","author":"Beltran","year":"2012","journal-title":"J.
