We present the coronary artery disease (CAD) database, a comprehensive resource, comprising 126 papers and 68 datasets relevant to CAD diagnosis, extracted from the scientific literature from 1992 and 2018. These data were collected to help advance research on CAD-related machine learning and data mining algorithms, and hopefully to ultimately advance clinical diagnosis and early treatment. To aid users, we have also built a web application that presents the database through various reports. ...[more]

Project description:MotivationSelecting the optimal machine learning (ML) model for a given dataset is often challenging. Automated ML (AutoML) has emerged as a powerful tool for enabling the automatic selection of ML methods and parameter settings for the prediction of biomedical endpoints. Here, we apply the tree-based pipeline optimization tool (TPOT) to predict angiographic diagnoses of coronary artery disease (CAD). With TPOT, ML models are represented as expression trees and optimal pipelines discovered using a stochastic search method called genetic programing. We provide some guidelines for TPOT-based ML pipeline selection and optimization-based on various clinical phenotypes and high-throughput metabolic profiles in the Angiography and Genes Study (ANGES).ResultsWe analyzed nuclear magnetic resonance-derived lipoprotein and metabolite profiles in the ANGES cohort with a goal to identify the role of non-obstructive CAD patients in CAD diagnostics. We performed a comparative analysis of TPOT-generated ML pipelines with selected ML classifiers, optimized with a grid search approach, applied to two phenotypic CAD profiles. As a result, TPOT-generated ML pipelines that outperformed grid search optimized models across multiple performance metrics including balanced accuracy and area under the precision-recall curve. With the selected models, we demonstrated that the phenotypic profile that distinguishes non-obstructive CAD patients from no CAD patients is associated with higher precision, suggesting a discrepancy in the underlying processes between these phenotypes.Availability and implementationTPOT is freely available via http://epistasislab.github.io/tpot/.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Project description:Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Due to the late onset of symptoms, early diagnosis is difficult in this disease. Efficient prediction can save patients before permeant liver damage. The main objective of this study is to employ various machine learning techniques to predict this disease based on common and affordable blood test data to diagnose and treat patients in the early stages. In this study, six machine learning algorithms (Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-nearest Neighbors (KNN), Logistic Regression, decision tree, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), artificial neural networks (ANN)) were utilized on two datasets. The performances of these techniques were compared in terms of confusion matrix, precision, recall, F1 score, accuracy, receiver operating characteristics (ROC), and the area under the curve (AUC) to identify a method that is appropriate for predicting this disease. The analysis, on NHANES and UCI datasets, revealed that SVM and XGBoost (with the highest accuracy and AUC among the test models, >80%) can be effective tools for medical professionals using routine and affordable blood test data to predict hepatitis C.

Project description:This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of machine learning-based radiomics analysis to diagnose coronary artery disease status and risk from rest/stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). A total of 395 patients suspicious of coronary artery disease who underwent 2-day stress-rest protocol MPI SPECT were enrolled in this study. The left ventricle myocardium, excluding the cardiac cavity, was manually delineated on rest and stress images to define a volume of interest. Added to clinical features (age, sex, family history, diabetes status, smoking, and ejection fraction), a total of 118 radiomics features, were extracted from rest and stress MPI SPECT images to establish different feature sets, including Rest-, Stress-, Delta-, and Combined-radiomics (all together) feature sets. The data were randomly divided into 80% and 20% subsets for training and testing, respectively. The performance of classifiers built from combinations of three feature selections, and nine machine learning algorithms was evaluated for two different diagnostic tasks, including 1) normal/abnormal (no CAD vs. CAD) classification, and 2) low-risk/high-risk CAD classification. Different metrics, including the area under the ROC curve (AUC), accuracy (ACC), sensitivity (SEN), and specificity (SPE), were reported for models' evaluation. Overall, models built on the Stress feature set (compared to other feature sets), and models to diagnose the second task (compared to task 1 models) revealed better performance. The Stress-mRMR-KNN (feature set-feature selection-classifier) reached the highest performance for task 1 with AUC, ACC, SEN, and SPE equal to 0.61, 0.63, 0.64, and 0.6, respectively. The Stress-Boruta-GB model achieved the highest performance for task 2 with AUC, ACC, SEN, and SPE of 0.79, 0.76, 0.75, and 0.76, respectively. Diabetes status from the clinical feature family, and dependence count non-uniformity normalized, from the NGLDM family, which is representative of non-uniformity in the region of interest were the most frequently selected features from stress feature set for CAD risk classification. This study revealed promising results for CAD risk classification using machine learning models built on MPI SPECT radiomics. The proposed models are helpful to alleviate the labor-intensive MPI SPECT interpretation process regarding CAD status and can potentially expedite the diagnostic process.

Project description:Infectious diseases, including vector-borne diseases transmitted by arthropods, are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In the era of big data, addressing broad-scale, fundamental questions regarding the complex dynamics of these diseases will increasingly require the integration of diverse datasets to produce new biological knowledge. This review provides a current snapshot of the systematic assessment of the relationships between microbial pathogens, arthropod vectors and mammalian hosts using data mining and machine learning. We employ PRISMA to identify 32 key papers relevant to this topic. Our analysis shows an increasing use of data mining and machine learning tasks and techniques, including prediction, classification, clustering, association rules mining, and deep learning, over the last decade. However, it also reveals a number of critical challenges in applying these to the study of vector-host-pathogen interactions at various systems biology levels. Here, relevant studies, current limitations and future directions are discussed. Furthermore, the quality of data in relevant papers was assessed using the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) compliance criteria to evaluate and encourage reproducibility and shareability of research outcomes. Although shortcomings in their application remain, data mining and machine learning have significant potential to break new ground in understanding fundamental aspects of vector-host-pathogen relationships and their application in this field should be encouraged. In particular, while predictive modeling, feature engineering and supervised machine learning are already being used in the field, other data mining and machine learning methods such as deep learning and association rules analysis lag behind and should be implemented in combination with established methods to accelerate hypothesis and knowledge generation in the domain.

Project description:In drug delivery, there is often a trade-off between effective killing of the pathogen, and harmful side effects associated with the treatment. Due to the difficulty in testing every dosing scenario experimentally, a computational approach will be helpful to assist with the prediction of effective drug delivery methods. In this paper, we have developed a data-driven predictive system, using machine learning techniques, to determine, in silico, the effectiveness of drug dosing. The system framework is scalable, autonomous, robust, and has the ability to predict the effectiveness of the current drug treatment and the subsequent drug-pathogen dynamics. The system consists of a dynamic model incorporating both the drug concentration and pathogen population into distinct states. These states are then analyzed using a temporal model to describe the drug-cell interactions over time. The dynamic drug-cell interactions are learned in an adaptive fashion and used to make sequential predictions on the effectiveness of the dosing strategy. Incorporated into the system is the ability to adjust the sensitivity and specificity of the learned models based on a threshold level determined by the operator for the specific application. As a proof-of-concept, the system was validated experimentally using the pathogen Giardia lamblia and the drug metronidazole in vitro.

Project description:Alternative splicing (AS) events modulate certain pathways and phenotypic plasticity in cancer. Although previous studies have computationally analyzed splicing events, it is still a challenge to uncover biological functions induced by reliable AS events from tremendous candidates. To provide essential splicing event signatures to assess pathway regulation, we developed a database by collecting two datasets: (i) reported literature and (ii) cancer transcriptome profile. The former includes knowledge-based splicing signatures collected from 63,229 PubMed abstracts using natural language processing, extracted for 202 pathways. The latter is the machine learning-based splicing signatures identified from pan-cancer transcriptome for 16 cancer types and 42 pathways. We established six different learning models to classify pathway activities from splicing profiles as a learning dataset. Top-ranked AS events by learning model feature importance became the signature for each pathway. To validate our learning results, we performed evaluations by (i) performance metrics, (ii) differential AS sets acquired from external datasets, and (iii) our knowledge-based signatures. The area under the receiver operating characteristic values of the learning models did not exhibit any drastic difference. However, random-forest distinctly presented the best performance to compare with the AS sets identified from external datasets and our knowledge-based signatures. Therefore, we used the signatures obtained from the random-forest model. Our database provided the clinical characteristics of the AS signatures, including survival test, molecular subtype, and tumor microenvironment. The regulation by splicing factors was additionally investigated. Our database for developed signatures supported retrieval and visualization system.

Project description:Coronary artery disease is a chronic disease with an increased expression in the elderly. However, different studies have shown an increased incidence in young subjects over the last decades. The prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in very young patients has a significant impact on medical decision-making following coronary angiography and the selection of treatment. Different approaches have been developed to identify patients at a higher risk of adverse outcomes after their coronary anatomy is known. This is a prognostic study of combined data from patients ≤40 years old undergoing coronary angiography (n = 492). We evaluated whether different machine learning (ML) approaches could predict MACE more effectively than traditional statistical methods using logistic regression (LR). Our most effective model for long-term follow-up (60 ± 27 months) was random forest (RF), obtaining an area under the curve (AUC) = 0.79 (95%CI 0.69-0.88), in contrast with LR, obtaining AUC = 0.66 (95%CI 0.53-0.78, p = 0.021). At 1-year follow-up, the RF test found AUC 0.80 (95%CI 0.71-0.89) vs. LR 0.50 (95%CI 0.33-0.66, p < 0.001). The results of our study support the hypothesis that ML methods can improve both the identification of MACE risk patients and the prediction vs. traditional statistical techniques even in a small sample size. The application of ML techniques to focus the efforts on the detection of MACE in very young patients after coronary angiography could help tailor upfront follow-up strategies in such young patients according to their risk of MACE and to be used for proper assignment of health resources.

Project description:BackgroundHyperbilirubinemia is emerging as an increasingly common problem in newborns due to a decreasing hospital length of stay after birth. Jaundice is the most common disease of the newborn and although being benign in most cases it can lead to severe neurological consequences if poorly evaluated. In different areas of medicine, data mining has contributed to improve the results obtained with other methodologies.Hence, the aim of this study was to improve the diagnosis of neonatal jaundice with the application of data mining techniques.MethodsThis study followed the different phases of the Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining model as its methodology.This observational study was performed at the Obstetrics Department of a central hospital (Centro Hospitalar Tâmega e Sousa--EPE), from February to March of 2011. A total of 227 healthy newborn infants with 35 or more weeks of gestation were enrolled in the study. Over 70 variables were collected and analyzed. Also, transcutaneous bilirubin levels were measured from birth to hospital discharge with maximum time intervals of 8 hours between measurements, using a noninvasive bilirubinometer.Different attribute subsets were used to train and test classification models using algorithms included in Weka data mining software, such as decision trees (J48) and neural networks (multilayer perceptron). The accuracy results were compared with the traditional methods for prediction of hyperbilirubinemia.ResultsThe application of different classification algorithms to the collected data allowed predicting subsequent hyperbilirubinemia with high accuracy. In particular, at 24 hours of life of newborns, the accuracy for the prediction of hyperbilirubinemia was 89%. The best results were obtained using the following algorithms: naive Bayes, multilayer perceptron and simple logistic.ConclusionsThe findings of our study sustain that, new approaches, such as data mining, may support medical decision, contributing to improve diagnosis in neonatal jaundice.

Project description:Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is a reliable predictor for future cardiovascular disease risk. Although deep learning studies using computed tomography (CT) images to predict CACS have been reported, no study has assessed the feasibility of machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict the CACS using clinical variables in a healthy general population. Therefore, we aimed to assess whether ML algorithms other than binary logistic regression (BLR) could predict high CACS in a healthy population with general health examination data. This retrospective observational study included participants who had regular health screening including coronary CT angiography. High CACS was defined by the Agatston score ≥ 100. Univariable and multivariable BLR was performed to assess predictors for high CACS in the entire dataset. When performing ML prediction for high CACS, the dataset was randomly divided into a training and test dataset with a 7:3 ratio. BLR, catboost, and xgboost algorithms with 5-fold cross-validation and grid search technique were used to find the best performing classifier. Performance comparison of each ML algorithm was evaluated with the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve. A total of 2133 participants were included in the final analysis. Mean age and proportion of male sex were 55.4 ± 11.3 years and 1483 (69.5%), respectively. In multivariable BLR analysis, age (odds ratio [OR], 1.12; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-1.15, p < 0.001), male sex (OR, 2.91; 95% CI, 1.57-5.38, p < 0.001), systolic blood pressure (OR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.00-1.03, p = 0.019), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (OR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.99-1.00, p = 0.047) were significant predictors for high CACS. Performance in predicting high CACS of xgboost was AUROC of 0.823, followed by catboost (0.750) and BLR (0.585). The comparison of AUROC between xgboost and BLR was significant (p for AUROC comparison < 0.001). Xgboost ML algorithm was found to be a more reliable predictor of CACS in healthy participants compared to the BLR algorithm. ML algorithms may be useful for predicting CACS with only laboratory data in healthy participants.

Project description:Over the past few years, solar power has significantly increased in popularity as a renewable energy. In the context of electricity generation, solar power offers clean and accessible energy, as it is not associated with global warming and pollution. The main challenge of solar power is its uncontrollable fluctuation since it is highly depending on other weather variables. Thus, forecasting energy generation is important for smart grid operators and solar electricity providers since they are required to ensure the power continuity in order to dispatch and properly prepare to store the energy. In this study, we propose an efficient comparison framework for forecasting the solar power that will be generated 36 h in advance from Yeongam solar power plant located in South Jeolla Province, South Korea. The results show a comparative analysis of the state-of-the-art techniques for solar power generation.
