SeqEnhDL: sequence-based classification of cell type-specific enhancers using deep learning models.

BMC research notes
OBJECTIVE: To address the challenge of computational identification of cell type-specific regulatory elements on a genome-wide scale.

DeepCAPE: A Deep Convolutional Neural Network for the Accurate Prediction of Enhancers.

Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics
The establishment of a landscape of enhancers across human cells is crucial to deciphering the mechanism of gene regulation, cell differentiation, and disease development. High-throughput experimental approaches, which contain successfully reported e...

ES-ARCNN: Predicting enhancer strength by using data augmentation and residual convolutional neural network.

Analytical biochemistry
Enhancers are non-coding DNA sequences bound by proteins called transcription factors. They function as distant regulators of gene transcription and participate in the development and maintenance of cell types and tissues. Since experimental validati...

Learning and interpreting the gene regulatory grammar in a deep learning framework.

PLoS computational biology
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in identifying gene regulatory sequences, but they have provided limited insight into the biology of regulatory elements due to the difficulty of interpreting the complex features...

Identification and Classification of Enhancers Using Dimension Reduction Technique and Recurrent Neural Network.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Enhancers are noncoding fragments in DNA sequences, which play an important role in gene transcription and translation. However, due to their high free scattering and positional variability, the identification and classification of enhancers have a h...

Enhancer recognition and prediction during spermatogenesis based on deep convolutional neural networks.

Molecular omics
MOTIVATION: enhancers play an important role in the regulation of gene expression during spermatogenesis. The development of ChIP-Chip and ChIP-Seq sequencing technology has enabled researchers to focus on the relationship between enhancers and DNA s...

Avocado: a multi-scale deep tensor factorization method learns a latent representation of the human epigenome.

Genome biology
The human epigenome has been experimentally characterized by thousands of measurements for every basepair in the human genome. We propose a deep neural network tensor factorization method, Avocado, that compresses this epigenomic data into a dense, i...

iEnhancer-ECNN: identifying enhancers and their strength using ensembles of convolutional neural networks.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Enhancers are non-coding DNA fragments which are crucial in gene regulation (e.g. transcription and translation). Having high locational variation and free scattering in 98% of non-encoding genomes, enhancer identification is, therefore, ...

Ranking of non-coding pathogenic variants and putative essential regions of the human genome.

Nature communications
A gene is considered essential if loss of function results in loss of viability, fitness or in disease. This concept is well established for coding genes; however, non-coding regions are thought less likely to be determinants of critical functions. H...
