Low-Rank and Sparse Matrix Decomposition for Genetic Interaction Data.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Epistatic miniarray profile (EMAP) studies have enabled the mapping of large-scale genetic interaction networks and generated large amounts of data in model organisms. One approach to analyze EMAP data is to identify gene modules with densely interacting genes. In addition, genetic interaction score (S score) reflects the degree of synergizing or mitigating effect of two mutants, which is also informative. Statistical approaches that exploit both modularity and the pairwise interactions may provide more insight into the underlying biology. However, the high missing rate in EMAP data hinders the development of such approaches. To address the above problem, we adopted the matrix decomposition methodology "low-rank and sparse decomposition" (LRSDec) to decompose EMAP data matrix into low-rank part and sparse part.

Results

LRSDec has been demonstrated as an effective technique for analyzing EMAP data. We applied a synthetic dataset and an EMAP dataset studying RNA-related processes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Global views of the genetic cross talk between different RNA-related protein complexes and processes have been structured, and novel functions of genes have been predicted.

Project description:Vessel diseases are often accompanied by abnormalities related to vascular shape and size. Therefore, a clear visualization of vasculature is of high clinical significance. Ultrasound color flow imaging (CFI) is one of the prominent techniques for flow visualization. However, clutter signals originating from slow-moving tissue are one of the main obstacles to obtain a clear view of the vascular network. Enhancement of the vasculature by suppressing the clutters is a significant and irreplaceable step for many applications of ultrasound CFI. Currently, this task is often performed by singular value decomposition (SVD) of the data matrix. This approach exhibits two well-known limitations. First, the performance of SVD is sensitive to the proper manual selection of the ranks corresponding to clutter and blood subspaces. Second, SVD is prone to failure in the presence of large random noise in the dataset. A potential solution to these issues is using decomposition into low-rank and sparse matrices (DLSM) framework. SVD is one of the algorithms for solving the minimization problem under the DLSM framework. Many other algorithms under DLSM avoid full SVD and use approximated SVD or SVD-free ideas which may have better performance with higher robustness and less computing time. In practice, these models separate blood from clutter based on the assumption that steady clutter represents a low-rank structure and that the moving blood component is sparse. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of ultrasound clutter suppression techniques and exploit the feasibility of low-rank and sparse decomposition schemes in ultrasound clutter suppression. We conduct this review study by adapting 106 DLSM algorithms and validating them against simulation, phantom, and in vivo rat datasets. Two conventional quality metrics, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), are used for performance evaluation. In addition, computation times required by different algorithms for generating clutter suppressed images are reported. Our extensive analysis shows that the DLSM framework can be successfully applied to ultrasound clutter suppression.
