Project description:Metabolic fingerprinting studies rely on interpretations drawn from low-dimensional representations of spectral data generated by methods of multivariate analysis such as principal components analysis and projection to latent structures discriminant analysis. The growth of metabolic fingerprinting and chemometric analyses involving these low-dimensional scores plots necessitates the use of quantitative statistical measures to describe significant differences between experimental groups. Our updated version of the PCAtoTree software provides methods to reliably visualize and quantify separations in scores plots through dendrograms employing both nonparametric and parametric hypothesis testing to assess node significance, as well as scores plots identifying 95% confidence ellipsoids for all experimental groups.

Project description:BackgroundPartial Least-Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) is a popular machine learning tool that is gaining increasing attention as a useful feature selector and classifier. In an effort to understand its strengths and weaknesses, we performed a series of experiments with synthetic data and compared its performance to its close relative from which it was initially invented, namely Principal Component Analysis (PCA).ResultsWe demonstrate that even though PCA ignores the information regarding the class labels of the samples, this unsupervised tool can be remarkably effective as a feature selector. In some cases, it outperforms PLS-DA, which is made aware of the class labels in its input. Our experiments range from looking at the signal-to-noise ratio in the feature selection task, to considering many practical distributions and models encountered when analyzing bioinformatics and clinical data. Other methods were also evaluated. Finally, we analyzed an interesting data set from 396 vaginal microbiome samples where the ground truth for the feature selection was available. All the 3D figures shown in this paper as well as the supplementary ones can be viewed interactively at http://biorg.cs.fiu.edu/plsda CONCLUSIONS: Our results highlighted the strengths and weaknesses of PLS-DA in comparison with PCA for different underlying data models.

Project description:In the title compound, C(12)H(9)N(2) (+)·Br(-), the protonated tricyclic ring system is slightly twisted, with a dihedral angle of 3.9 (1)° between the two outer benzene rings. In the crystal, N-H⋯Br and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link two cations and two bromide anions into centrosymmetric assemblies, which are further packed into stacks along [010] via π-π inter-actions between the aromatic rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.725 (4) Å].

Project description:Classification studies are widely applied, e.g. in biomedical research to classify objects/patients into predefined groups. The goal is to find a classification function/rule which assigns each object/patient to a unique group with the greatest possible accuracy (classification error). Especially in gene expression experiments often a lot of variables (genes) are measured for only few objects/patients. A suitable approach is the well-known method PLS-DA, which searches for a transformation to a lower dimensional space. Resulting new components are linear combinations of the original variables. An advancement of PLS-DA leads to PPLS-DA, introducing a so called 'power parameter', which is maximized towards the correlation between the components and the group-membership. We introduce an extension of PPLS-DA for optimizing this power parameter towards the final aim, namely towards a minimal classification error. We compare this new extension with the original PPLS-DA and also with the ordinary PLS-DA using simulated and experimental datasets. For the investigated data sets with weak linear dependency between features/variables, no improvement is shown for PPLS-DA and for the extensions compared to PLS-DA. A very weak linear dependency, a low proportion of differentially expressed genes for simulated data, does not lead to an improvement of PPLS-DA over PLS-DA, but our extension shows a lower prediction error. On the contrary, for the data set with strong between-feature collinearity and a low proportion of differentially expressed genes and a large total number of genes, the prediction error of PPLS-DA and the extensions is clearly lower than for PLS-DA. Moreover we compare these prediction results with results of support vector machines with linear kernel and linear discriminant analysis.

Project description:The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pathogen responsible for the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, as a variant of concern on 26 November 2021. By this time, 42% of the world's population had received at least one dose of the vaccine against COVID-19. As on 1 October 2022, only 68% of the world population got the first dose of the vaccine. Although the vaccination is incredibly protective against severe complications of the disease and death, the highly contagious Omicron variant, compared to the Delta variant (B.1.617.2), has led the whole world into more chaotic situations. Furthermore, the virus has a high mutation rate, and hence, the possibility of a new variant of concern in the future cannot be ruled out. To face such a challenging situation, paramount importance should be given to rapid diagnosis and isolation of the infected patient. Current diagnosis methods, including reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and rapid antigen tests, face significant burdens during a COVID-19 wave. However, studies reported ultrarapid, reagent-free, cost-efficient, and non-destructive diagnosis methods based on chemometrics for COVID-19 and COVID-19 severity diagnosis. These studies used a smaller sample cohort to construct the diagnosis model and failed to discuss the robustness of the model. The current study systematically evaluated the robustness of the diagnosis models trained using smaller (real and augmented spectra) and larger (augmented spectra) datasets. The Monte Carlo cross-validation and permutation test results suggest that diagnosis using models trained by larger datasets was accurate and statistically significant (Q 2 > 99% and AUROC = 100%).

Project description:Fast-growing trees like Capirona, Bolaina, and Pashaco have the potential to reduce forest degradation because of their ecological features, the economic importance in the Amazon Forest, and an industry based on wood-polymer composites. Therefore, a practical method to discriminate specie (to avoid illegal logging) and determine chemical composition (tree breeding programs) is needed. This study aimed to validate a model for the classification of wood species and a universal model for the rapid determination of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin using FTIR spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics. Our results showed that PLS-DA models for the classification of wood species (0.84 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.91, 0.12 ≤ RMSEP ≤ 0.20, accuracy, specificity, and sensibility between 95.2 and 100%) were satisfied with the full spectra and the differentiation among these species based on IR peaks related to cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose. Besides, the full spectra helped build a three-species universal PLS model to quantify the principal wood chemical components. Lignin (RPD = 2.27, [Formula: see text] = 0.84) and hemicellulose (RPD = 2.46, [Formula: see text] = 0.83) models showed a good prediction, while cellulose model (RPD = 3.43, [Formula: see text] = 0.91) classified as efficient. This study showed that FTIR-ATR, together with chemometrics, is a reliable method to discriminate wood species and to determine the wood chemical composition in juvenile trees of Pashaco, Capirona, and Bolaina.

Project description:During process monitoring applications, referenced optical spectroscopy, such as absorbance spectroscopy, can suffer from environmental and instrumental fluctuations that alter the intensity of irradiance reaching the spectrometer's detector at each detected frequency. Temperature, vibration, light source aging, instrument damage, detector aging, detector registry shifts, sampling cell degradation, and similar perturbations create situations in which a previously collected reference spectrum may no longer be valid for the current state of the system. This can lead to the calculation of poor-quality absorbance spectra that are unsuitable for qualitative or quantitative analysis based on prior calibration models. The use of single-beam spectra in the creation of multivariate calibration models circumvents the need for collecting and maintaining a stable reference spectrum throughout an ongoing chemical process. However, unlike absorbance spectra, which typically have a zero baseline, single-beam spectra contain a high background signal relative to an analyte signal, and they may also contain intense peaks from the light source. Here, multivariate principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS) regression models are built using single-beam and absorbance spectra to compare the efficacy of both types of spectra for qualitative and quantitative analyses of lanthanide solutions. A multileg fiber optic UV-visible spectrometer is utilized to collect samples under three distinct wavelength registries in three unique sampling cells and under lighting conditions spanning 0.2 to 2.0 relative transmittance. Under these conditions, single-beam spectral PCA models produced enhanced discrimination between sampling conditions, allowing spectra to be grouped by the instrumental conditions under which they were collected. Absorbance and single-beam PLS models produced equivalent quantitations of the lanthanide concentrations.

Project description:The title compound 2,2'-bipyridin-1'-ium 1-oxide bromide crystallizes as a monohydrate, C10H9N2+·Br-·H2O. Structural disorder is observed due to the fact that protonation, as well as oxidation, of the N atoms of 2,2'-bi-pyridine occurs at either of the N atoms. The disorder extends to the remainder of the cation, with a refined occupancy rate of 0.717 (4) for the major moiety. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond forces the bi-pyridine unit into an s-cis conformation. Each pair of neighbouring 2,2'-bipyridin-1'-ium ions forms a dimeric aggregate by hydrogen bonds between their respective N-O and the N-H functions. These dimers and hydrogen-bonding inter-actions with bromide ions and the water mol-ecule give rise to a complex supra-molecular arrangement.
