Prediction model of random forest for the risk of hyperuricemia in a Chinese basic health checkup test.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The present study aimed to develop a random forest (RF) based prediction model for hyperuricemia (HUA) and compare its performance with the conventional logistic regression (LR) model.

Methods

This cross-sectional study recruited 91,690 participants (14,032 with HUA, 77,658 without HUA). We constructed a RF-based prediction model in the training sets and evaluated it in the validation sets. Performance of the RF model was compared with the LR model by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.

Results

The sensitivity and specificity of the RF models were 0.702 and 0.650 in males, 0.767 and 0.721 in females. The positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were 0.372 and 0.881 in males, 0.159 and 0.978 in females. AUC of the RF models was 0.739 (0.728-0.750) in males and 0.818 (0.799-0.837) in females. AUC of the LR models were 0.730 (0.718-0.741) for males and 0.815 (0.795-0.835) for females. The predictive power of RF was slightly higher than that of LR, but was not statistically significant in females (Delong tests, P=0.0015 for males, P=0.5415 for females).

Conclusion

Compared with LR, the good performance in HUA status prediction and the tolerance of features associations or interactions showed great potential of RF in further application. A prospective cohort is necessary for HUA developing prediction. People with high risk factors should be encouraged to actively control to reduce the probability of developing HUA.

Exploration of Machine Learning for Hyperuricemia Prediction Models Based on Basic Health Checkup Tests.

Project description:Machine learning (ML) is a promising methodology for classification and prediction applications in healthcare. However, this method has not been practically established for clinical data. Hyperuricemia is a biomarker of various chronic diseases. We aimed to predict uric acid status from basic healthcare checkup test results using several ML algorithms and to evaluate the performance. We designed a prediction model for hyperuricemia using a comprehensive health checkup database designed by the classification of ML algorithms, such as discrimination analysis, K-nearest neighbor, naïve Bayes (NBC), support vector machine, decision tree, and random forest classification (RFC). The performance of each algorithm was evaluated and compared with the performance of a conventional logistic regression (CLR) algorithm by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Of the 38,001 participants, 7705 were hyperuricemic. For the maximum sensitivity criterion, NBC showed the highest sensitivity (0.73), and RFC showed the second highest (0.66); for the maximum balanced classification rate (BCR) criterion, RFC showed the highest BCR (0.68), and NBC showed the second highest (0.66) among the various ML algorithms for predicting uric acid status. In a comparison to the performance of NBC (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.669, 95% confidence intervals (CI) = 0.669⁻0.675) and RFC (AUC = 0.775, 95% CI 0.770⁻0.780) with a CLR algorithm (AUC = 0.568, 95% CI = 0.563⁻0.571), NBC and RFC showed significantly better performance (p < 0.001). The ML model was superior to the CLR model for the prediction of hyperuricemia. Future studies are needed to determine the best-performing ML algorithms based on data set characteristics. We believe that this study will be informative for studies using ML tools in clinical research.

A Random-Forest Based Algorithm for Prediction of Enhancers From Histone Modifications

Project description:Transcriptional enhancers play critical roles in regulation of gene expression, but their identification has remained a challenge. Recently, it was shown that enhancers in the mammalian genome are associated with characteristic histone modification patterns, which have been increasingly exploited for enhancer identification. However, only a limited number of histone modifications have previously been investigated for this purpose, leaving the questions answered whether there exist an optimal set of histone modifications that could improve the enhancer prediction. Here, we address this issue by exploring a rich dataset produced by the human Epigenome Roadmap Project. Specifically, we examined genome-wide profiles of 24 histone modifications in human embryonic stem cells and fibroblasts, and developed a Random-Forest based algorithm to integrate histone modification profiles for identification of enhancers.As a training set, we used histone modification profiles at genome-wide binding sites of p300 in the two cell types identified using ChIP-seq. We show that this algorithm not only leads to more accurate and precise prediction of enhancers than previous methods, but also helps identify an optimal set of three chromatin marks for enhancer prediction. ChIP-Seq Analysis of p300 in hESC H1 and IMR90 cells. Sequencing was done on the Illumina Genome Analyzer II platform for the H1 data and Illumina HiSeq for IMR90.Data was mapped to hg18 using Bowtie.

Random Forest Model Prediction of Compound Oral Exposure in the Mouse.

Project description:An early hurdle in the optimization of small-molecule chemical probes and drug discovery entities is the attainment of sufficient exposure in the mouse via oral administration of the compound. While computational approaches have attempted to predict molecular properties related to the mouse pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, we present herein a machine learning approach to specifically predict the oral exposure of a compound as measured in the mouse snapshot PK assay. A random forest workflow was found to produce the best cross-validation and external test set statistics after processing of the input data set and optimization of model features. The modeling approach should be useful to the chemical biology and drug discovery communities to predict this key molecular property and afford chemical entities of translational significance.

tRForest: a novel random forest-based algorithm for tRNA-derived fragment target prediction

Project description:tRNA fragments (tRFs) are a novel class of small RNAs comparable to the size and function of miRNAs. We and others have shown that tRFs are generally Dicer independent, can be found in abundance in the miRNA effector protein Ago, and can repress expression of specific genes that have complementarity to their 5’ seed-sequences. Given that this greatly expands the repertoire of small RNAs capable of post-transcriptional gene expression, it is important to predict tRF targets with confidence. Some attempts have been made to predict tRF targets, but are limited in the scope of tRF classes used in prediction or limited in feature selection. We hypothesized that established miRNA target prediction features applied to tRFs through a random forest machine learning algorithm will immensely improve tRF target prediction. Using this approach, we show significant improvements in tRF target prediction for all classes of tRFs and validate our predictions in two independent cell lines. Finally, using Gene Ontology analysis, we provide evidence that tRF-3009a targets may be involved in neural development. These improvements to tRF target prediction further our understanding of tRF function broadly across species and tRF types, and provide avenues for testing novel roles for tRFs in biology.

Heterogeneity Aware Random Forest for Drug Sensitivity Prediction.

Project description:Samples collected in pharmacogenomics databases typically belong to various cancer types. For designing a drug sensitivity predictive model from such a database, a natural question arises whether a model trained on diverse inter-tumor heterogeneous samples will perform similar to a predictive model that takes into consideration the heterogeneity of the samples in model training and prediction. We explore this hypothesis and observe that ensemble model predictions obtained when cancer type is known out-perform predictions when that information is withheld even when the samples sizes for the former is considerably lower than the combined sample size. To incorporate the heterogeneity idea in the commonly used ensemble based predictive model of Random Forests, we propose Heterogeneity Aware Random Forests (HARF) that assigns weights to the trees based on the category of the sample. We treat heterogeneity as a latent class allocation problem and present a covariate free class allocation approach based on the distribution of leaf nodes of the model ensemble. Applications on CCLE and GDSC databases show that HARF outperforms traditional Random Forest when the average drug responses of cancer types are different.

Study of cardiovascular disease prediction model based on random forest in eastern China.

Project description:Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide and a major public health concern. CVD prediction is one of the most effective measures for CVD control. In this study, 29930 subjects with high-risk of CVD were selected from 101056 people in 2014, regular follow-up was conducted using electronic health record system. Logistic regression analysis showed that nearly 30 indicators were related to CVD, including male, old age, family income, smoking, drinking, obesity, excessive waist circumference, abnormal cholesterol, abnormal low-density lipoprotein, abnormal fasting blood glucose and else. Several methods were used to build prediction model including multivariate regression model, classification and regression tree (CART), Naïve Bayes, Bagged trees, Ada Boost and Random Forest. We used the multivariate regression model as a benchmark for performance evaluation (Area under the curve, AUC?=?0.7143). The results showed that the Random Forest was superior to other methods with an AUC of 0.787 and achieved a significant improvement over the benchmark. We provided a CVD prediction model for 3-year risk assessment of CVD. It was based on a large population with high risk of CVD in eastern China using Random Forest algorithm, which would provide reference for the work of CVD prediction and treatment in China.

Development of Random Forest Algorithm Based Prediction Model of Alzheimer's Disease Using Neurodegeneration Pattern.

Project description:ObjectiveAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and the prevalence rapidly increased as the elderly population increased worldwide. In the contemporary model of AD, it is regarded as a disease continuum involving preclinical stage to severe dementia. For accurate diagnosis and disease monitoring, objective index reflecting structural change of brain is needed to correctly assess a patient's severity of neurodegeneration independent from the patient's clinical symptoms. The main aim of this paper is to develop a random forest (RF) algorithm-based prediction model of AD using structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).MethodsWe evaluated diagnostic accuracy and performance of our RF based prediction model using newly developed brain segmentation method compared with the Freesurfer's which is a commonly used segmentation software.ResultsOur RF model showed high diagnostic accuracy for differentiating healthy controls from AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) using structural MRI, patient characteristics, and cognitive function (HC vs. AD 93.5%, AUC 0.99; HC vs. MCI 80.8%, AUC 0.88). Moreover, segmentation processing time of our algorithm (<5 minutes) was much shorter than of Freesurfer's (6-8 hours).ConclusionOur RF model might be an effective automatic brain segmentation tool which can be easily applied in real clinical practice.

NetAllergen, a random forest model integrating MHC-II presentation propensity for improved allergenicity prediction.

Project description:MotivationAllergy is a pathological immune reaction towards innocuous protein antigens. Although only a narrow fraction of plant or animal proteins induce allergy, atopic disorders affect millions of children and adults and cost billions in healthcare systems worldwide. In silico predictors can aid in the development of more innocuous food sources. Previous allergenicity predictors used sequence similarity, common structural domains, and amino acid physicochemical features. However, these predictors strongly rely on sequence similarity to known allergens and fail to predict protein allergenicity accurately when similarity diminishes.ResultsTo overcome these limitations, we collected allergens from AllergenOnline, a curated database of IgE-inducing allergens, carefully removed allergen redundancy with a novel protein partitioning pipeline, and developed a new allergen prediction method, introducing MHC presentation propensity as a novel feature. NetAllergen outperformed a sequence similarity-based BLAST baseline approach, and previous allergenicity predictor AlgPred 2 when similarity to known allergens is limited.Availability and implementationThe web service NetAllergen and the datasets are available at https://services.healthtech.dtu.dk/services/NetAllergen-1.0/.

Prediction of protein-mannose binding sites using random forest.

Project description:Mannose is an abundant cell surface monosaccharide and has an important role in many biochemical processes. It binds to a great diversity of receptor proteins. In this study we have employed Random Forest for prediction of mannose binding sites. Mannosebinding site is taken to be a sphere around the centroid of the ligand and the sphere is subdivided into different layers and atom wise and residue wise features were extracted for each layer. The method achieves 95.59 % of accuracy using Random Forest with 10 fold cross validation. Prediction of mannose binding site analysis will be quite useful in drug design.
