Abstract Several deaths are caused due to cancer. Cancer detection and classification is an important issue in the field of bioinformatics. Machine learning technique such as classification and data mining technique such as clustering are previously applied for identifying cancer using gene expression data. But the technique used is time consuming. In this paper we implement a distributed clustering algorithm by which time consumption is lesser. In this algorithm we planned to implement hierarchical clustering in a distributed manner.

1 INTRODUCTION

Class of diseases that is characterized by uncontrollable cell growth is the cancer. Any body part may be affected with cancer. Causes of cancer still remains unknown but several factors are not avoided completely. Cancer needs to be cured earlier. If it reaches the extreme state then the patient will be severely affected. Earlier days treatment of cancer was done clinically. But this kind of detection is possible only at an extreme state, so curing is not effective. We have to find out which property of gene has caused the disease so that early detection may become possible. For this purpose gene, the property of gene, DNA etc. has to be analyzed in detail.

2 DNA

DNA the deoxyribonucleic acid found in all living organism including many viruses is the molecule encoding the genetic instructions. The double helical structure of DNA is formed by two biopolymer strands. The polynucleotide is the name given to the strands which consists of several simple nucleotides. Guanine, adenine, thymine, cytosine are the nucleo base found in these nucleotides. Biological information storage is the main function of DNA. Long structure like organization of DNA is called chromosomes. James Watson and Francis Crick are the two scientists who discovered the double helical structure of DNA. Mutations in DNA will leads to cancer. Many mutagens will damage the DNA sequence. DNA damage varies depends on type of mutagens. Several types of mutagens are identified they are oxidizing agents, alkylating agents, electromagnetic radiation, ultraviolet rays and x-rays. If the double strand breaks then it is difficult to repair the strand causing insertion, deletion,

mutations, and chromosomal translocations and finally leads to cancer.

3 DIAGNOSIS USING MICROARRAYS

Diagnosis using microarray is a complicated task. The data in microarray contains an image. This image is converted into the form of a gene expression matrix. Virtual lab on a chip is called microarray. 2D array on a solid platform is the composition of microarray. Solid platform may be a glass slide; the purpose of this microarray is for biological reference study. There are many types of microarrays i.e. DNA microarrays, protein microarrays, peptide microarray, tissue microarray, cellular microarrays etc.

  1. EXISTING METHOD

    In the existing system cancer detection and classification was done based on gene expression data. Machine learning technique and data mining technique like clustering and classification was used for the purpose. For finding which property of gene has caused the disease association rule has been derived. Extension of clustering and classification give rise to the association rule. After classification several association rules can be formed. From this association rule best rule was taken and that best rule was stored as knowledge. When sample was given knowledge was processed then tested to get the result as yes or no. There are some disadvantages in this system. The large microarray dataset is not processed by a system. And the system was time consuming.

  2. PROPOSED METHOD

    The field of computer science that studies distributed system is called distributed computing. Software system components in the networked computer communicate and coordinate their action by passing messages is called a distributed system. In distributed we implement a distributed clustering algorithm. In this algorithm, we planned to implement hierarchical clustering in a distributed manner. According to this, initial dataset is divided into N dataset. And these N datasets are stored in N cluster nodes. Each of these cluster nodes perform clustering on its own dataset and form a partial hierarchical cluster. And special nodes CMN (Cluster Merge Node) which combine these N partial hierarchical into a single cluster and from the several expressions are derived. From their best expression is taken. And this best expression

    is stored as knowledge. Rule saved as knowledge was processed and then tested to get the result as yes or no.

    1. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

      Fig1: system architecture

      Here the initial data set is divided into N dataset. This N Data Set performs clustering using K-means clustering. The clustering in which grouping of objects occurs where variability is small within and large across the clusters. In k- means K number of clusters is there. The partial trees obtained after clustering are combined by cluster merge node into a single partial hierarchical cluster. Partial tree consist of

      diseased tree and a sub tree.

      ALGORITHM 1: SERVER SIDE

      Expression tree (ET)

      • Set of expressions formed

      • Removed tree

    1. Split the dataset into N blocks.

    2. Send to N blocks

    3. Declare ET[n]

    4. For each node i Receive ET[i]

    5. Declare expression list, EL

    6. For each i=1 to N Exp=ET[i].expression

      Add each element in exp to EL, and perform Optimization

    7. for each ET Begin

      Eliminate node in ET using EL End

    8. Build a tree, T using all the remaining nodes in ET

    9. Find expressions in T

    10. Add EL

    11. Best rule finding

    ALGORITHM 2: NODE SIDE

    1. Receive dataset.

    2. Preprocessing.

    3. Clustering.

    4. Classification.

    5. Find expression tree.

    6. Send expression tree to the server.

    The partial formed after clustering diseased tree is taken and the non-diseased sub tree is there. Expression tree is composed of set of expressions and removed tree. At the server side data set is divided into N dataset and that data set is send to N blocks. After clustering several partial trees are obtained. Nodes are evaluated and same expressions are removed. I.e. if the tree contains same expression to that of another tree that expressions are removed. And if one tree is composed of some expressions in another tree that expressions are removed. After removing duplicates best expression is taken as the rule.

  4. CONCLUSION

    The work proposed a distributed approach for cancer therapeutics based on gene expression data. Here we implement hierarchical clustering in a distributed manner. Since the large dataset is processed in different machines time delay can be avoided. For writing association rule time consumption is avoided. Since the system is working in a distributed manner overhead will occur.
