Improving CNV Detection Performance in Microarray Data Using a Machine Learning-Based Approach.

ABSTRACT: Copy number variation (CNV) is a primary source of structural variation in the human genome, leading to several disorders. Therefore, analyzing neonatal CNVs is crucial for managing CNV-related chromosomal disabilities. However, genomic waves can hinder accurate CNV analysis. To mitigate the influences of the waves, we adopted a machine learning approach and developed a new method that uses a modified log R ratio instead of the commonly used log R ratio. Validation results using samples with known CNVs demonstrated the superior performance of our method. We analyzed a total of 16,046 Korean newborn samples using the new method and identified CNVs related to 39 genetic disorders were identified in 342 cases. The most frequently detected CNV-related disorder was Joubert syndrome 4. The accuracy of our method was further confirmed by analyzing a subset of the detected results using NGS and comparing them with our results. The utilization of a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism array with wave offset was shown to be a powerful method for identifying CNVs in neonatal cases. The accurate screening and the ability to identify various disease susceptibilities offered by our new method could facilitate the identification of CNV-associated chromosomal disease etiologies.

Project description:Machine learning (ML) methods have great potential to transform chemical discovery by accelerating the exploration of chemical space and drawing scientific insights from data. However, modern chemical reaction ML models, such as those based on graph neural networks (GNNs), must be trained on a large amount of labelled data in order to avoid overfitting the data and thus possessing low accuracy and transferability. In this work, we propose a strategy to leverage unlabelled data to learn accurate ML models for small labelled chemical reaction data. We focus on an old and prominent problem-classifying reactions into distinct families-and build a GNN model for this task. We first pretrain the model on unlabelled reaction data using unsupervised contrastive learning and then fine-tune it on a small number of labelled reactions. The contrastive pretraining learns by making the representations of two augmented versions of a reaction similar to each other but distinct from other reactions. We propose chemically consistent reaction augmentation methods that protect the reaction center and find they are the key for the model to extract relevant information from unlabelled data to aid the reaction classification task. The transfer learned model outperforms a supervised model trained from scratch by a large margin. Further, it consistently performs better than models based on traditional rule-driven reaction fingerprints, which have long been the default choice for small datasets, as well as those based on reaction fingerprints derived from masked language modelling. In addition to reaction classification, the effectiveness of the strategy is tested on regression datasets; the learned GNN-based reaction fingerprints can also be used to navigate the chemical reaction space, which we demonstrate by querying for similar reactions. The strategy can be readily applied to other predictive reaction problems to uncover the power of unlabelled data for learning better models with a limited supply of labels.
