Microarray-based cancer prediction using soft computing approach.

ABSTRACT: One of the difficulties in using gene expression profiles to predict cancer is how to effectively select a few informative genes to construct accurate prediction models from thousands or ten thousands of genes. We screen highly discriminative genes and gene pairs to create simple prediction models involved in single genes or gene pairs on the basis of soft computing approach and rough set theory. Accurate cancerous prediction is obtained when we apply the simple prediction models for four cancerous gene expression datasets: CNS tumor, colon tumor, lung cancer and DLBCL. Some genes closely correlated with the pathogenesis of specific or general cancers are identified. In contrast with other models, our models are simple, effective and robust. Meanwhile, our models are interpretable for they are based on decision rules. Our results demonstrate that very simple models may perform well on cancerous molecular prediction and important gene markers of cancer can be detected if the gene selection approach is chosen reasonably.

Project description:The developing countries are still starving for the betterment of health sector. The disease commonly found among the women is breast cancer, and past researches have proven results that if the cancer is detected at a very early stage, the chances to overcome the disease are higher than the disease treated or detected at a later stage. This article proposed cloud-based intelligent BCP-T1F-SVM with 2 variations/models like BCP-T1F and BCP-SVM. The proposed BCP-T1F-SVM system has employed two main soft computing algorithms. The proposed BCP-T1F-SVM expert system specifically defines the stage and the type of cancer a person is suffering from. Expert system will elaborate the grievous stages of the cancer, to which extent a patient has suffered. The proposed BCP-SVM gives the higher precision of the proposed breast cancer detection model. In the limelight of breast cancer, the proposed BCP-T1F-SVM expert system gives out the higher precision rate. The proposed BCP-T1F expert system is being employed in the diagnosis of breast cancer at an initial stage. Taking different stages of cancer into account, breast cancer is being dealt by BCP-T1F expert system. The calculations and the evaluation done in this research have revealed that BCP-SVM is better than BCP-T1F. The BCP-T1F concludes out the 96.56 percentage accuracy, whereas the BCP-SVM gives accuracy of 97.06 percentage. The above unleashed research is wrapped up with the conclusion that BCP-SVM is better than the BCP-T1F.

Microarray-based cancer prediction using single genes.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough numerous methods of using microarray data analysis for cancer classification have been proposed, most utilize many genes to achieve accurate classification. This can hamper interpretability of the models and ease of translation to other assay platforms. We explored the use of single genes to construct classification models. We first identified the genes with the most powerful univariate class discrimination ability and then constructed simple classification rules for class prediction using the single genes.ResultsWe applied our model development algorithm to eleven cancer gene expression datasets and compared classification accuracy to that for standard methods including Diagonal Linear Discriminant Analysis, k-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest. The single gene classifiers provided classification accuracy comparable to or better than those obtained by existing methods in most cases. We analyzed the factors that determined when simple single gene classification is effective and when more complex modeling is warranted.ConclusionsFor most of the datasets examined, the single-gene classification methods appear to work as well as more standard methods, suggesting that simple models could perform well in microarray-based cancer prediction.

Prediction of bruise volume propagation of pear during the storage using soft computing methods.

Project description:Bruises occur under both static and dynamic loadings when the imposed stress on fruit goes over the failure stress of the fruit tissue. Bruise damage is the main reason for fruit quality loss. In this study, the potential of artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and multiple regression (MR) techniques to predict bruise volume propagation of pears during the storage time was evaluated. For this purpose, at first, the radius of curvature at loading region was obtained. Samples were divided into five groups and subjected to five force levels. Then, they were kept under storage conditions and at 7-time intervals after loading tests, bruise volume was calculated using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and image processing techniques. Force, storage time, and radius of curvature at loading region were employed as input variables, and bruise volume (BV) was considered as output in the developed models. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) artificial neural network with three layers that includes an input layer (three neurons), two hidden layers (two and nine neurons), and one output layer was used. For the evaluation of models, three criteria (RMSE, VAF, and R 2) were calculated. ANN and MR gave the highest and lowest correlation between predicted and actual values, respectively. These results indicate that the ANN techniques can be used to predict pear bruising propagation in storage time.

Module-based prediction approach for robust inter-study predictions in microarray data.

Project description:MotivationTraditional genomic prediction models based on individual genes suffer from low reproducibility across microarray studies due to the lack of robustness to expression measurement noise and gene missingness when they are matched across platforms. It is common that some of the genes in the prediction model established in a training study cannot be matched to another test study because a different platform is applied. The failure of inter-study predictions has severely hindered the clinical applications of microarray. To overcome the drawbacks of traditional gene-based prediction (GBP) models, we propose a module-based prediction (MBP) strategy via unsupervised gene clustering.ResultsK-means clustering is used to group genes sharing similar expression profiles into gene modules, and small modules are merged into their nearest neighbors. Conventional univariate or multivariate feature selection procedure is applied and a representative gene from each selected module is identified to construct the final prediction model. As a result, the prediction model is portable to any test study as long as partial genes in each module exist in the test study. We demonstrate that K-means cluster sizes generally follow a multinomial distribution and the failure probability of inter-study prediction due to missing genes is diminished by merging small clusters into their nearest neighbors. By simulation and applications of real datasets in inter-study predictions, we show that the proposed MBP provides slightly improved accuracy while is considerably more robust than traditional GBP.Availabilityhttp://www.biostat.pitt.edu/bioinfo/Contactctseng@pitt.eduSupplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

DAIRRy-BLUP: a high-performance computing approach to genomic prediction.

Project description:In genomic prediction, common analysis methods rely on a linear mixed-model framework to estimate SNP marker effects and breeding values of animals or plants. Ridge regression-best linear unbiased prediction (RR-BLUP) is based on the assumptions that SNP marker effects are normally distributed, are uncorrelated, and have equal variances. We propose DAIRRy-BLUP, a parallel, Distributed-memory RR-BLUP implementation, based on single-trait observations ( Y: ), that uses the Average Information algorithm for restricted maximum-likelihood estimation of the variance components. The goal of DAIRRy-BLUP is to enable the analysis of large-scale data sets to provide more accurate estimates of marker effects and breeding values. A distributed-memory framework is required since the dimensionality of the problem, determined by the number of SNP markers, can become too large to be analyzed by a single computing node. Initial results show that DAIRRy-BLUP enables the analysis of very large-scale data sets (up to 1,000,000 individuals and 360,000 SNPs) and indicate that increasing the number of phenotypic and genotypic records has a more significant effect on the prediction accuracy than increasing the density of SNP arrays.

A soft computing tool for species classification and prediction of glucomannan content in Amorphophallus genus.

Project description:The proposed work aims at designing a classification system for automatic identification of A. muelleri species, grown as a potential cash crop in many Asian countries, from the DNA fingerprints of Amorphophallus genus. Four sets of 48 DNA fingerprints belonging to 37 species of the Amorphophallus genus, developed with the help of four different primers are considered for the experiment, with an objective to identify only the fingerprints of the species of interest. A second experimental setup deals with the automatic classification of species containing high amounts of glucomannan from the same set of DNA fingerprints of the Amorphophallus genus. For each set of 48 DNA fingerprints generated with a specific primer, the DNA fingerprints are preprocessed to extract a 42 dimensional feature vector which is used to generate a k-Nearest Neighbor based classifier based on the Leave One Out Cross Validation protocol. Final classification based on outputs from individual classifiers constructed with respect to the four different primers is performed according to a n-star consensus strategy. The n-star consensus predicts species A. muelleri with cent per cent accuracy while it predicts species containing glucomannan with a more modest accuracy of 81.25%.

Real-time respiratory motion prediction using photonic reservoir computing.

Project description:Respiration induced motion is a well-recognized challenge in many clinical practices including upper body imaging, lung tumor motion tracking and radiation therapy. In this work, we present a recurrent neural network algorithm that was implemented in a photonic delay-line reservoir computer (RC) for real-time respiratory motion prediction. The respiratory motion signals are quasi-periodic waveforms subject to a variety of non-linear distortions. In this work, we demonstrated for the first time that RC can be effective in predicting short to medium range of respiratory motions within practical timescales. A double-sliding window technology is explored to enable the real-time establishment of an individually trained model for each patient and the real-time processing of live-streamed respiratory motion data. A breathing dataset from a total of 76 patients with breathing speeds ranging from 3 to 20 breaths per minute (BPM) is studied. Motion prediction of look-ahead times of 66.6, 166.6, and 333 ms are investigated. With a 333 ms look-ahead time, the real-time RC model achieves an average normalized mean square error (NMSE) of 0.025, an average mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.34 mm, an average root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.45 mm, an average therapeutic beam efficiency (TBE) of 94.14% for an absolute error (AE) < 1 mm, and 99.89% for AE < 3 mm. This study demonstrates that real-time RC is an efficient computing framework for high precision respiratory motion prediction.

Rough set soft computing cancer classification and network: one stone, two birds.

Project description:Gene expression profiling provides tremendous information to help unravel the complexity of cancer. The selection of the most informative genes from huge noise for cancer classification has taken centre stage, along with predicting the function of such identified genes and the construction of direct gene regulatory networks at different system levels with a tuneable parameter. A new study by Wang and Gotoh described a novel Variable Precision Rough Sets-rooted robust soft computing method to successfully address these problems and has yielded some new insights. The significance of this progress and its perspectives will be discussed in this article.

A Novel Pathway-Based Approach Improves Lung Cancer Risk Prediction Using Germline Genetic Variations.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many genetic variants that are strongly associated with lung cancer, these variants have low penetrance and serve as poor predictors of lung cancer in individuals. We sought to increase the predictive value of germline variants by considering their cumulative effects in the context of biologic pathways.MethodsFor individuals in the Environment and Genetics in Lung Cancer Etiology study (1,815 cases/1,971 controls), we computed pathway-level susceptibility effects as the sum of relevant SNP variant alleles weighted by their log-additive effects from a separate lung cancer GWAS meta-analysis (7,766 cases/37,482 controls). Logistic regression models based on age, sex, smoking, genetic variants, and principal components of pathway effects and pathway-smoking interactions were trained and optimized in cross-validation and further tested on an independent dataset (556 cases/830 controls). We assessed prediction performance using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).ResultsCompared with typical binomial prediction models that have epidemiologic predictors (AUC = 0.607) in addition to top GWAS variants (AUC = 0.617), our pathway-based smoking-interactive multinomial model significantly improved prediction performance in external validation (AUC = 0.656, P < 0.0001).ConclusionsOur biologically informed approach demonstrated a larger increase in AUC over nongenetic counterpart models relative to previous approaches that incorporate variants.ImpactThis model is the first of its kind to evaluate lung cancer prediction using subtype-stratified genetic effects organized into pathways and interacted with smoking. We propose pathway-exposure interactions as a potentially powerful new contributor to risk inference. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 25(8); 1208-15. ©2016 AACR.

QTL/microarray approach using pathway information.

Project description:BackgroundA combined quantitative trait loci (QTL) and microarray-based approach is commonly used to find differentially expressed genes which are then identified based on the known function of a gene in the biological process governing the trait of interest. However, a low cutoff value in individual gene analyses may result in many genes with moderate but meaningful changes in expression being missed.ResultsWe modified a gene set analysis to identify intersection sets with significantly affected expression for which the changes in the individual gene sets are less significant. The gene expression profiles in liver tissues of four strains of mice from publicly available microarray sources were analyzed to detect trait-associated pathways using information on the QTL regions of blood concentrations of high density lipoproteins (HDL) cholesterol and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Several metabolic pathways related to HDL levels, including lipid metabolism, ABC transporters and cytochrome P450 pathways were detected for HDL QTL regions. Most of the pathways identified for the IGF-1 phenotype were signal transduction pathways associated with biological processes for IGF-1's regulation.ConclusionWe have developed a method of identifying pathways associated with a quantitative trait using information on QTL. Our approach provides insights into genotype-phenotype relations at the level of biological pathways which may help to elucidate the genetic architecture underlying variation in phenotypic traits.
