Sensopeptidomic Kinetic Approach Combined with Decision Trees and Random Forests to Study the Bitterness during Enzymatic Hydrolysis Kinetics of Micellar Caseins.

ABSTRACT: Protein hydrolysates are, in general, mixtures of amino acids and small peptides able to supply the body with the constituent elements of proteins in a directly assimilable form. They are therefore characterised as products with high nutritional value. However, hydrolysed proteins display an unpleasant bitter taste and possible off-flavours which limit the field of their nutrition applications. The successful identification and characterisation of bitter protein hydrolysates and, more precisely, the peptides responsible for this unpleasant taste are essential for nutritional research. Due to the large number of peptides generated during hydrolysis, there is an urgent need to develop methods in order to rapidly characterise the bitterness of protein hydrolysates. In this article, two enzymatic hydrolysis kinetics of micellar milk caseins were performed for 9 h. For both kinetics, the optimal time to obtain a hydrolysate with appreciable organoleptic qualities is 5 h. Then, the influence of the presence or absence of peptides and their intensity over time compared to the different sensory characteristics of hydrolysates was studied using heat maps, random forests and regression trees. A total of 22 peptides formed during the enzymatic proteolysis of micellar caseins and influencing the bitterness the most were identified. These methods represent simple and efficient tools to identify the peptides susceptibly responsible for bitterness intensity and predict the main sensory feature of micellar casein enzymatic hydrolysates.

Risk controlled decision trees and random forests for precision Medicine.

Project description:Statistical methods generating individualized treatment rules (ITRs) often focus on maximizing expected benefit, but these rules may expose patients to excess risk. For instance, aggressive treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) with insulin therapies may result in an ITR which controls blood glucose levels but increases rates of hypoglycemia, diminishing the appeal of the ITR. This work proposes two methods to identify risk-controlled ITRs (rcITR), a class of ITR which maximizes a benefit while controlling risk at a prespecified threshold. A novel penalized recursive partitioning algorithm is developed which optimizes an unconstrained, penalized value function. The final rule is a risk-controlled decision tree (rcDT) that is easily interpretable. A natural extension of the rcDT model, risk controlled random forests (rcRF), is also proposed. Simulation studies demonstrate the robustness of rcRF modeling. Three variable importance measures are proposed to further guide clinical decision-making. Both rcDT and rcRF procedures can be applied to data from randomized controlled trials or observational studies. An extensive simulation study interrogates the performance of the proposed methods. A data analysis of the DURABLE diabetes trial in which two therapeutics were compared is additionally presented. An R package implements the proposed methods ( https://github.com/kdoub5ha/rcITR).

An Algorithm for Generating Individualized Treatment Decision Trees and Random Forests.

Project description:With new treatments and novel technology available, precision medicine has become a key topic in the new era of healthcare. Traditional statistical methods for precision medicine focus on subgroup discovery through identifying interactions between a few markers and treatment regimes. However, given the large scale and high dimensionality of modern data sets, it is difficult to detect the interactions between treatment and high dimensional covariates. Recently, novel approaches have emerged that seek to directly estimate individualized treatment rules (ITR) via maximizing the expected clinical reward by using, for example, support vector machines (SVM) or decision trees. The latter enjoys great popularity in clinical practice due to its interpretability. In this paper, we propose a new reward function and a novel decision tree algorithm to directly maximize rewards. We further improve a single tree decision rule by an ensemble decision tree algorithm, ITR random forests. Our final decision rule is an average over single decision trees and it is a soft probability rather than a hard choice. Depending on how strong the treatment recommendation is, physicians can make decisions based on our model along with their own judgment and experience. Performance of ITR forest and tree methods is assessed through simulations along with applications to a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of 1385 patients with diabetes and an EMR cohort of 5177 patients with diabetes. ITR forest and tree methods are implemented using statistical software R (https://github.com/kdoub5ha/ITR.Forest).

Counting trees in Random Forests: Predicting symptom severity in psychiatric intake reports.

Project description:The CEGS N-GRID 2016 Shared Task (Filannino et al., 2017) in Clinical Natural Language Processing introduces the assignment of a severity score to a psychiatric symptom, based on a psychiatric intake report. We present a method that employs the inherent interview-like structure of the report to extract relevant information from the report and generate a representation. The representation consists of a restricted set of psychiatric concepts (and the context they occur in), identified using medical concepts defined in UMLS that are directly related to the psychiatric diagnoses present in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM-IV) ontology. Random Forests provides a generalization of the extracted, case-specific features in our representation. The best variant presented here scored an inverse mean absolute error (MAE) of 80.64%. A concise concept-based representation, paired with identification of concept certainty and scope (family, patient), shows a robust performance on the task.

Random forests of interaction trees for estimating individualized treatment effects in randomized trials.

Project description:Assessing heterogeneous treatment effects is a growing interest in advancing precision medicine. Individualized treatment effects (ITEs) play a critical role in such an endeavor. Concerning experimental data collected from randomized trials, we put forward a method, termed random forests of interaction trees (RFIT), for estimating ITE on the basis of interaction trees. To this end, we propose a smooth sigmoid surrogate method, as an alternative to greedy search, to speed up tree construction. The RFIT outperforms the "separate regression" approach in estimating ITE. Furthermore, standard errors for the estimated ITE via RFIT are obtained with the infinitesimal jackknife method. We assess and illustrate the use of RFIT via both simulation and the analysis of data from an acupuncture headache trial.

Effects of stopping criterion on the growth of trees in regression random forests.

Project description:Random forests are a powerful machine learning tool that capture complex relationships between independent variables and an outcome of interest. Trees built in a random forest are dependent on several hyperparameters, one of the more critical being the node size. The original algorithm of Breiman, controls for node size by limiting the size of the parent node, so that a node cannot be split if it has less than a specified number of observations. We propose that this hyperparameter should instead be defined as the minimum number of observations in each terminal node. The two existing random forest approaches are compared in the regression context based on estimated generalization error, bias-squared, and variance of resulting predictions in a number of simulated datasets. Additionally the two approaches are applied to type 2 diabetes data obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. We have developed a straightforward method for incorporating weights into the random forest analysis of survey data. Our results demonstrate that generalization error under the proposed approach is competitive to that attained from the original random forest approach when data have large random error variability. The R code created from this work is available and includes an illustration.

Using Classification and Regression Trees (CART) and random forests to analyze attrition: Results from two simulations.

Project description:In this article, we describe a recent development in the analysis of attrition: using classification and regression trees (CART) and random forest methods to generate inverse sampling weights. These flexible machine learning techniques have the potential to capture complex nonlinear, interactive selection models, yet to our knowledge, their performance in the missing data analysis context has never been evaluated. To assess the potential benefits of these methods, we compare their performance with commonly employed multiple imputation and complete case techniques in 2 simulations. These initial results suggest that weights computed from pruned CART analyses performed well in terms of both bias and efficiency when compared with other methods. We discuss the implications of these findings for applied researchers.

Mood Disorder Detection in Adolescents by Classification Trees, Random Forests and XGBoost in Presence of Missing Data.

Project description:We apply tree-based classification algorithms, namely the classification trees, with the use of the rpart algorithm, random forests and XGBoost methods to detect mood disorder in a group of 2508 lower secondary school students. The dataset presents many challenges, the most important of which is many missing data as well as the being heavily unbalanced (there are few severe mood disorder cases). We find that all algorithms are specific, but only the rpart algorithm is sensitive; i.e., it is able to detect cases of real cases mood disorder. The conclusion of this paper is that this is caused by the fact that the rpart algorithm uses the surrogate variables to handle missing data. The most important social-studies-related result is that the adolescents' relationships with their parents are the single most important factor in developing mood disorders-far more important than other factors, such as the socio-economic status or school success.

Random Forests Are Able to Identify Differences in Clotting Dynamics from Kinetic Models of Thrombin Generation.

Project description:Current methods for distinguishing acute coronary syndromes such as heart attack from stable coronary artery disease, based on the kinetics of thrombin formation, have been limited to evaluating sensitivity of well-established chemical species (e.g., thrombin) using simple quantifiers of their concentration profiles (e.g., maximum level of thrombin concentration, area under the thrombin concentration versus time curve). In order to get an improved classifier, we use a 34-protein factor clotting cascade model and convert the simulation data into a high-dimensional representation (about 19000 features) using a piecewise cubic polynomial fit. Then, we systematically find plausible assays to effectively gauge changes in acute coronary syndrome/coronary artery disease populations by introducing a statistical learning technique called Random Forests. We find that differences associated with acute coronary syndromes emerge in combinations of a handful of features. For instance, concentrations of 3 chemical species, namely, active alpha-thrombin, tissue factor-factor VIIa-factor Xa ternary complex, and intrinsic tenase complex with factor X, at specific time windows, could be used to classify acute coronary syndromes to an accuracy of about 87.2%. Such a combination could be used to efficiently assay the coagulation system.

Modulating flavanone compound for reducing the bitterness and improving dietary fiber, physicochemical properties, and anti-adipogenesis of green yuzu powder by enzymatic hydrolysis.

Project description:Yuzu (Citrus junos Sieb.) is a peel-edible fruit with a pleasant aroma, but its bitter taste can impact consumer appeal. In this study, an efficient enzymatic method reduced bitterness in green yuzu powder (GYP). Cellulase KN and naringinase from Aspergillus oryzae NYO-2 significantly decreased naringin and neohesperidin content by over 87 %, while increasing total dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber by up to 10 % and 51 %, respectively. Insoluble dietary fiber decreased by up to 22 %. Cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin contents in enzyme-treated YP decreased by 1.15-2.00-fold, respectively. Enzyme-treated GYP exhibited improved physicochemical properties, including enhanced solubility, oil-holding capacity, and water swelling capacities. 3T3-L1 cells treated with cellulase-treated GYP and naringinase-treated GYP showed lower lipid accumulation and higher lipolysis capability than GYP, along with decreased fatty acid synthase contents. These findings suggest that enzyme-treated GYP holds potential as a functional ingredient in the food industry.

Principal Component Analysis from Mass Spectrometry Data Combined to a Sensory Evaluation as a Suitable Method for Assessing Bitterness of Enzymatic Hydrolysates Produced from Micellar Casein Proteins.

Project description:Enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins generally changes the techno-functional, nutritional, and organoleptic properties of hydrolyzed proteins. As a result, protein hydrolysates have an important interest in the food industries. However, they tend to be characterized by a bitter taste and some off-flavors, which limit their use in the food industry. These tastes and aromas come from peptides, amino acids, and volatile compounds generated during hydrolysis. In this article, sixteen more or less bitter enzymatic hydrolysates produced from a milk protein liquid fraction enriched in micellar caseins using commercially available, food-grade proteases were subjected to a sensory analysis using a trained and validated sensory panel combined to a peptidomics approach based on the peptide characterization by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics software. The comparison between the sensory characteristics and the principal components of the principal component analysis (PCA) of mass spectrometry data reveals that peptidomics constitutes a convenient, valuable, fast, and economic intermediate method to evaluating the bitterness of enzymatic hydrolysates, as a trained sensory panel can do it.
