Deep metabolome: Applications of deep learning in metabolomics.

ABSTRACT: In the past few years, deep learning has been successfully applied to various omics data. However, the applications of deep learning in metabolomics are still relatively low compared to others omics. Currently, data pre-processing using convolutional neural network architecture appears to benefit the most from deep learning. Compound/structure identification and quantification using artificial neural network/deep learning performed relatively better than traditional machine learning techniques, whereas only marginally better results are observed in biological interpretations. Before deep learning can be effectively applied to metabolomics, several challenges should be addressed, including metabolome-specific deep learning architectures, dimensionality problems, and model evaluation regimes.

Project description:BackgroundThe number of applications of deep learning algorithms in bioinformatics is increasing as they usually achieve superior performance over classical approaches, especially, when bigger training datasets are available. In deep learning applications, discrete data, e.g. words or n-grams in language, or amino acids or nucleotides in bioinformatics, are generally represented as a continuous vector through an embedding matrix. Recently, learning this embedding matrix directly from the data as part of the continuous iteration of the model to optimize the target prediction - a process called 'end-to-end learning' - has led to state-of-the-art results in many fields. Although usage of embeddings is well described in the bioinformatics literature, the potential of end-to-end learning for single amino acids, as compared to more classical manually-curated encoding strategies, has not been systematically addressed. To this end, we compared classical encoding matrices, namely one-hot, VHSE8 and BLOSUM62, to end-to-end learning of amino acid embeddings for two different prediction tasks using three widely used architectures, namely recurrent neural networks (RNN), convolutional neural networks (CNN), and the hybrid CNN-RNN.ResultsBy using different deep learning architectures, we show that end-to-end learning is on par with classical encodings for embeddings of the same dimension even when limited training data is available, and might allow for a reduction in the embedding dimension without performance loss, which is critical when deploying the models to devices with limited computational capacities. We found that the embedding dimension is a major factor in controlling the model performance. Surprisingly, we observed that deep learning models are capable of learning from random vectors of appropriate dimension.ConclusionOur study shows that end-to-end learning is a flexible and powerful method for amino acid encoding. Further, due to the flexibility of deep learning systems, amino acid encoding schemes should be benchmarked against random vectors of the same dimension to disentangle the information content provided by the encoding scheme from the distinguishability effect provided by the scheme.
