Deep Representation Learning For Multimodal Brain Networks.

ABSTRACT: Applying network science approaches to investigate the functions and anatomy of the human brain is prevalent in modern medical imaging analysis. Due to the complex network topology, for an individual brain, mining a discriminative network representation from the multimodal brain networks is non-trivial. The recent success of deep learning techniques on graph-structured data suggests a new way to model the non-linear cross-modality relationship. However, current deep brain network methods either ignore the intrinsic graph topology or require a network basis shared within a group. To address these challenges, we propose a novel end-to-end deep graph representation learning (Deep Multimodal Brain Networks - DMBN) to fuse multimodal brain networks. Specifically, we decipher the cross-modality relationship through a graph encoding and decoding process. The higher-order network mappings from brain structural networks to functional networks are learned in the node domain. The learned network representation is a set of node features that are informative to induce brain saliency maps in a supervised manner. We test our framework in both synthetic and real image data. The experimental results show the superiority of the proposed method over some other state-of-the-art deep brain network models.

Project description:Background Functional gene networks (FGNs) capture functional relationships among genes that vary across tissues and cell types. Construction of cell-type-specific FGNs enables the understanding of cell-type-specific functional gene relationships and insights into genetic mechanisms of human diseases in disease-relevant cell types. However, most existing FGNs were developed without consideration of specific cell types within tissues. Results In this study, we created a multimodal deep learning model (MDLCN) to predict cell-type-specific FGNs in the human brain by integrating single-nuclei gene expression data with global protein interaction networks. We systematically evaluated the prediction performance of the MDLCN and showed its superior performance compared to two baseline models (boosting tree and convolutional neural network). Based on the predicted cell-type-specific FGNs, we observed that cell-type marker genes had a higher level of hubness than non-marker genes in their corresponding cell type. Furthermore, we showed that risk genes underlying autism and Alzheimer’s disease were more strongly connected in disease-relevant cell types, supporting the cellular context of predicted cell-type-specific FGNs. Conclusions Our study proposes a powerful deep learning approach (MDLCN) to predict FGNs underlying a diverse set of cell types in human brain. The MDLCN model enhances prediction accuracy of cell-type-specific FGNs compared to single modality convolutional neural network (CNN) and boosting tree models, as shown by higher areas under both receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and precision-recall curves for different levels of independent test datasets. The predicted FGNs also show evidence for the cellular context and distinct topological features (i.e. higher hubness and topological score) of cell-type marker genes. Moreover, we observed stronger modularity among disease-associated risk genes in FGNs of disease-relevant cell types. For example, the strength of connectivity among autism risk genes was stronger in neurons, but risk genes underlying Alzheimer’s disease were more connected in microglia.
