Abstract

MOTIVATION: Omics features, often measured by high-throughput technologies, combined with clinical features, significantly impact the understanding of many complex human diseases. Integrating key omics biomarkers with clinical risk factors is essential for elucidating disease mechanisms, advancing early diagnosis, and enhancing precision medicine. However, the high dimensionality and intricate associations between disease outcomes and omics profiles present substantial analytical challenges.
