Supervised machine learning in the mass spectrometry laboratory: A tutorial.

ABSTRACT: As the demand for laboratory testing by mass spectrometry increases, so does the need for automated methods for data analysis. Clinical mass spectrometry (MS) data is particularly well-suited for machine learning (ML) methods, which deal nicely with structured and discrete data elements. The alignment of these two fields offers a promising synergy that can be used to optimize workflows, improve result quality, and enhance our understanding of high-dimensional datasets and their inherent relationship with disease. In recent years, there has been an increasing number of publications that examine the capabilities of ML-based software in the context of chromatography and MS. However, given the historically distant nature between the fields of clinical chemistry and computer science, there is an opportunity to improve technological literacy of ML-based software within the clinical laboratory scientist community. To this end, we present a basic overview of ML and a tutorial of an ML-based experiment using a previously published MS dataset. The purpose of this paper is to describe the fundamental principles of supervised ML, outline the steps that are classically involved in an ML-based experiment, and discuss the purpose of good ML practice in the context of a binary MS classification problem.

Cancer Tissue Classification Using Supervised Machine Learning Applied to MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging.

Project description:Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI MSI) can determine the spatial distribution of analytes such as protein distributions in a tissue section according to their mass-to-charge ratio. Here, we explored the clinical potential of machine learning (ML) applied to MALDI MSI data for cancer diagnostic classification using tissue microarrays (TMAs) on 302 colorectal (CRC) and 257 endometrial cancer (EC)) patients. ML based on deep neural networks discriminated colorectal tumour from normal tissue with an overall accuracy of 98% in balanced cross-validation (98.2% sensitivity and 98.6% specificity). Moreover, our machine learning approach predicted the presence of lymph node metastasis (LNM) for primary tumours of EC with an accuracy of 80% (90% sensitivity and 69% specificity). Our results demonstrate the capability of MALDI MSI for complementing classic histopathological examination for cancer diagnostic applications.

Cancer tissue classification using supervised machine learning applied to MALDI mass spectrometry imaging

Project description:With the current clinical available technologies, not all cancers are staged accurately. Because of this a large percentage of patients are misclassified before treatment, leading to under or over treatment. Therefore, a classification system based on the molecular feature is required to deter-mine the tumour behavior and metastatic potential. Here, we have shown the diagnostic potential of MALDI MSI using supervised machine learning approach in distinguishing cancerous colorectal tissue from normal with an overall accuracy of 98%. Also, shown is the capability of the technique in predicting the presence of metastasis in endometrial cancer with an overall accuracy of 80%. The development of such a model can help in determining the optimum treatment for cancerous pa-tients, reduce morbidity and better patient outcome.

Self-supervised clustering of mass spectrometry imaging data using contrastive learning.

Project description:Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is widely used for the label-free molecular mapping of biological samples. The identification of co-localized molecules in MSI data is crucial to the understanding of biochemical pathways. One of key challenges in molecular colocalization is that complex MSI data are too large for manual annotation but too small for training deep neural networks. Herein, we introduce a self-supervised clustering approach based on contrastive learning, which shows an excellent performance in clustering of MSI data. We train a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) using MSI data from a single experiment without manual annotations to effectively learn high-level spatial features from ion images and classify them based on molecular colocalizations. We demonstrate that contrastive learning generates ion image representations that form well-resolved clusters. Subsequent self-labeling is used to fine-tune both the CNN encoder and linear classifier based on confidently classified ion images. This new approach enables autonomous and high-throughput identification of co-localized species in MSI data, which will dramatically expand the application of spatial lipidomics, metabolomics, and proteomics in biological research.

Machine-learning-enhanced time-of-flight mass spectrometry analysis.

Project description:Mass spectrometry is a widespread approach used to work out what the constituents of a material are. Atoms and molecules are removed from the material and collected, and subsequently, a critical step is to infer their correct identities based on patterns formed in their mass-to-charge ratios and relative isotopic abundances. However, this identification step still mainly relies on individual users' expertise, making its standardization challenging, and hindering efficient data processing. Here, we introduce an approach that leverages modern machine learning technique to identify peak patterns in time-of-flight mass spectra within microseconds, outperforming human users without loss of accuracy. Our approach is cross-validated on mass spectra generated from different time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ToF-MS) techniques, offering the ToF-MS community an open-source, intelligent mass spectra analysis.

Chemical Class Prediction of Unknown Biomolecules Using Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry and Machine Learning: Supervised Inference of Feature Taxonomy from Ensemble Randomization.

Project description:This work presents a machine learning algorithm referred to as the supervised inference of feature taxonomy from ensemble randomization (SIFTER), which supports the identification of features derived from untargeted ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) experiments. SIFTER utilizes random forest machine learning on three analytical measurements derived from IM-MS (collision cross section, CCS), mass-to-charge (m/z), and mass defect (Δm) to classify unknown features into a taxonomy of chemical kingdom, super class, class, and subclass. Each of these classifications is assigned a calculated probability as well as alternate classifications with associated probabilities. After optimization, SIFTER was tested against a set of molecules not used in the training set. The average success rate in classifying all four taxonomy categories correctly was found to be >99%. Analysis of molecular features detected from a complex biological matrix and not used in the training set yielded a lower success rate where all four categories were correctly predicted for ∼80% of the compounds. This decline in performance is in part due to incompleteness of the training set across all potential taxonomic categories, but also resulting from a nearest-neighbor bias in the random forest algorithm. Ongoing efforts are focused on improving the class prediction accuracy of SIFTER through expansion of empirical data sets used for training as well as improvements to the core algorithm.

Semi-supervised machine learning for automated species identification by collagen peptide mass fingerprinting.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Biomolecular methods for species identification are increasingly being utilised in the study of changing environments, both at the microscopic and macroscopic levels. High-throughput peptide mass fingerprinting has been largely applied to bacterial identification, but increasingly used to identify archaeological and palaeontological skeletal material to yield information on past environments and human-animal interaction. However, as applications move away from predominantly domesticate and the more abundant wild fauna to a much wider range of less common taxa that do not yet have genetically-derived sequence information, robust methods of species identification and biomarker selection need to be determined. RESULTS:Here we developed a supervised machine learning algorithm for classifying the species of ancient remains based on collagen fingerprinting. The aim was to minimise requirements on prior knowledge of known species while yielding satisfactory sensitivity and specificity. The algorithm uses iterations of a modified random forest classifier with a similarity scoring system to expand its identified samples. We tested it on a set of 6805 spectra and found that a high level of accuracy can be achieved with a training set of five identified specimens per taxon. CONCLUSIONS:This method consistently achieves higher accuracy than two-dimensional principal component analysis and similar accuracy with hierarchical clustering using optimised parameters, which greatly reduces requirements for human input. Within the vertebrata, we demonstrate that this method was able to achieve the taxonomic resolution of family or sub-family level whereas the genus- or species-level identification may require manual interpretation or further experiments. In addition, it also identifies additional species biomarkers than those previously published.

ColocML: machine learning quantifies co-localization between mass spectrometry images.

Project description:MOTIVATION:Imaging mass spectrometry (imaging MS) is a prominent technique for capturing distributions of molecules in tissue sections. Various computational methods for imaging MS rely on quantifying spatial correlations between ion images, referred to as co-localization. However, no comprehensive evaluation of co-localization measures has ever been performed; this leads to arbitrary choices and hinders method development. RESULTS:We present ColocML, a machine learning approach addressing this gap. With the help of 42 imaging MS experts from nine laboratories, we created a gold standard of 2210 pairs of ion images ranked by their co-localization. We evaluated existing co-localization measures and developed novel measures using term frequency-inverse document frequency and deep neural networks. The semi-supervised deep learning Pi model and the cosine score applied after median thresholding performed the best (Spearman 0.797 and 0.794 with expert rankings, respectively). We illustrate these measures by inferring co-localization properties of 10 273 molecules from 3685 public METASPACE datasets. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION:https://github.com/metaspace2020/coloc. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Single-Cell Classification Using Mass Spectrometry through Interpretable Machine Learning.

Project description:The brain consists of organized ensembles of cells that exhibit distinct morphologies, cellular connectivity, and dynamic biochemistries that control the executive functions of an organism. However, the relationships between chemical heterogeneity, cell function, and phenotype are not always understood. Recent advancements in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry have enabled the high-throughput, multiplexed chemical analysis of single cells, capable of resolving hundreds of molecules in each mass spectrum. We developed a machine learning workflow to classify single cells according to their mass spectra based on cell groups of interest (GOI), e.g., neurons vs astrocytes. Three data sets from various cell groups were acquired on three different mass spectrometer platforms representing thousands of individual cell spectra that were collected and used to validate the single cell classification workflow. The trained models achieved >80% classification accuracy and were subjected to the recently developed instance-based model interpretation framework, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), which locally assigns feature importance for each single-cell spectrum. SHAP values were used for both local and global interpretations of our data sets, preserving the chemical heterogeneity uncovered by the single-cell analysis while offering the ability to perform supervised analysis. The top contributing mass features to each of the GOI were ranked and selected using mean absolute SHAP values, highlighting the features that are specific to the defined GOI. Our approach provides insight into discriminating the chemical profiles of the single cells through interpretable machine learning, facilitating downstream analysis and validation.
