A Learning-Based Method for LncRNA-Disease Association Identification Combing Similarity Information and Rotation Forest.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) play critical roles in the occurrence and development of various diseases. The determination of the lncRNA-disease associations thus would contribute to provide new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease, the diagnosis, and the gene treatments. Considering that traditional experimental approaches are difficult to detect potential human lncRNA-disease associations from the vast amount of biological data, developing computational method could be of significant value. In this paper, we proposed a novel computational method named LDASR to identify associations between lncRNA and disease by analyzing known lncRNA-disease associations. First, the feature vectors of the lncRNA-disease pairs were obtained by integrating lncRNA Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity, disease semantic similarity, and Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity. Second, autoencoder neural network was employed to reduce the feature dimension and get the optimal feature subspace from the original feature set. Finally, Rotating Forest was used to carry out prediction of lncRNA-disease association. The proposed method achieves an excellent preference with 0.9502 AUC in leave-one-out cross-validations (LOOCV) and 0.9428 AUC in 5-fold cross-validation, which significantly outperformed previous methods. Moreover, two kinds of case studies on identifying lncRNAs associated with colorectal cancer and glioma further proves the capability of LDASR in identifying novel lncRNA-disease associations. The promising experimental results show that the LDASR can be an excellent addition to the biomedical research in the future.

Project description:Spectral similarity calculation is widely used in protein identification tools and mass spectra clustering algorithms while comparing theoretical or experimental spectra. The performance of the spectral similarity calculation plays an important role in these tools and algorithms especially in the analysis of large-scale datasets. Recently, deep learning methods have been proposed to improve the performance of clustering algorithms and protein identification by training the algorithms with existing data and the use of multiple spectra and identified peptide features. While the efficiency of these algorithms is still under study in comparison with traditional approaches, their application in proteomics data analysis is becoming more common. Here, we propose the use of deep learning to improve spectral similarity comparison. We assessed the performance of deep learning for spectral similarity, with GLEAMS and a newly trained embedder model (DLEAMSE), which uses high-quality spectra from PRIDE Cluster. Also, we developed a new bioinformatics tool (mslookup - https://github.com/bigbio/DLEAMSE/) that allows users to quickly search for spectra in previously identified mass spectra publish in public repositories and spectral libraries. Finally, we released a human database to enable bioinformaticians and biologists to search for identified spectra in their machines. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Spectral similarity calculation plays an important role in proteomics data analysis. With deep learning's ability to learn the implicit and effective features from large-scale training datasets, deep learning-based MS/MS spectra embedding models has emerged as a solution to improve mass spectral clustering similarity calculation algorithms. We compare multiple similarity scoring and deep learning methods in terms of accuracy (compute the similarity for a pair of the mass spectrum) and computing-time performance. The benchmark results showed no major differences in accuracy between DLEAMSE and normalized dot product for spectrum similarity calculations. The DLEAMSE GPU implementation is faster than NDP in preprocessing on the GPU server and the similarity calculation of DLEAMSE (Euclidean distance on 32-D vectors) takes about 1/3 of dot product calculations. The deep learning model (DLEAMSE) encoding and embedding steps needed to run once for each spectrum and the embedded 32-D points can be persisted in the repository for future comparison, which is faster for future comparisons and large-scale data. Based on these, we proposed a new tool mslookup that enables the researcher to find spectra previously identified in public data. The tool can be also used to generate in-house databases of previously identified spectra to share with other laboratories and consortiums.
