Abstract

BACKGROUND: As a typical type of neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson's disease(PD) is characterized by significant clinical and progression heterogeneity. Based on gene expression data, reliable detection of PACE subtypes in Parkinson's disease(PD-PACE) has played a crucial role in addressing the heterogeneity of this disease. Established machine learning approaches generally adopt single-view learning schemes and employ temporal features underlying RNA sequencing data. Topological features, which are associated with gene graphs and cell graphs, were disregarded in previous works. Actually, Parkinson-specific gene graphs(PGG) could act as topological features to capture structural changes of molecular networks.
