Gene prediction of aging-related diseases based on DNN and Mashup.

ABSTRACT:

Background

At present, the bioinformatics research on the relationship between aging-related diseases and genes is mainly through the establishment of a machine learning multi-label model to classify each gene. Most of the existing methods for predicting pathogenic genes mainly rely on specific types of gene features, or directly encode multiple features with different dimensions, use the same encoder to concatenate and predict the final results, which will be subject to many limitations in the applicability of the algorithm. Possible shortcomings of the above include: incomplete coverage of gene features by a single type of biomics data, overfitting of small dimensional datasets by a single encoder, or underfitting of larger dimensional datasets.

Methods

We use the known gene disease association data and gene descriptors, such as gene ontology terms (GO), protein interaction data (PPI), PathDIP, Kyoto Encyclopedia of genes and genomes Genes (KEGG), etc, as input for deep learning to predict the association between genes and diseases. Our innovation is to use Mashup algorithm to reduce the dimensionality of PPI, GO and other large biological networks, and add new pathway data in KEGG database, and then combine a variety of biological information sources through modular Deep Neural Network (DNN) to predict the genes related to aging diseases.

Result and conclusion

The results show that our algorithm is more effective than the standard neural network algorithm (the Area Under the ROC curve from 0.8795 to 0.9153), gradient enhanced tree classifier and logistic regression classifier. In this paper, we firstly use DNN to learn the similar genes associated with the known diseases from the complex multi-dimensional feature space, and then provide the evidence that the assumed genes are associated with a certain disease.

Project description:Tactile sensory input of surgeons is severely limited in minimally invasive surgery, therefore manual palpation cannot be performed for intraoperative tumor detection. Computer-aided palpation, in which tactile information is acquired by devices and relayed to the surgeon, is one solution for overcoming this limitation. An important design factor is the method by which the acquired information is fed back to the surgeon. However, currently there is no systematic method for achieving this aim, and it is possible that a badly implemented feedback mechanism could adversely affect the performance of the surgeon. In this study, we propose an assistance algorithm for intraoperative tumor detection in laparoscopic surgery. Our scenario is that the surgeon manipulates a sensor probe, makes a decision based on the feedback provided from the sensor, while simultaneously, the algorithm analyzes the time series of the sensor output. Thus, the algorithm assists the surgeon in making decisions by providing independent detection results. A deep neural network model with three hidden layers was used to analyze the sensor output. We propose methods to input the time series of the sensor output to the model for real-time analysis, and to determine the criterion for detection by the model. This study aims to validate the feasibility of the algorithm by using data acquired in our previous psychophysical experiment. There, novice participants were asked to detect a phantom of an early-stage gastric tumor through visual feedback from the tactile sensor. In addition to the analysis of the accuracy, signal detection theory was employed to assess the potential detection performance of the model. The detection performance was compared with that of human participants. We conducted two types of validation, and found that the detection performance of the model was not significantly different from that of the human participants if the data from a known user was included in the model construction. The result supports the feasibility of the proposed algorithm for detection assistance in computer-aided palpation.
