The reliability of microarray-based cancer prognosis is questioned by Michiels et al. They reanalyzed seven studies published in the prominent journals as successful stories of microarray-based cancer prognosis and concluded that the originally reported assessments are over optimistic. We set to investigate the reality of microarrays for predicting cancer prognosis by using the same data sets with commonly accepted data analysis approaches. EXPERIMENT DESIGN: Michiels et al.'s analysis protocol used a correlation-based feature selection method, split sample validation, and a nearest-centroid rule classifier. We examined their results through systematically replacing their analysis approaches with other commonly used methods as a parameter study. In addition, we applied a widely accepted permutation test in conjunction with 5-fold cross-validation to verify Michiels et al.'s findings.
