Relating enhancer genetic variation across mammals to complex phenotypes using machine learning.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
Protein-coding differences between species often fail to explain phenotypic diversity, suggesting the involvement of genomic elements that regulate gene expression such as enhancers. Identifying associations between enhancers and phenotypes is challe...

Estimating resistance surfaces using gradient forest and allelic frequencies.

Molecular ecology resources
Understanding landscape connectivity has become a global priority for mitigating the impact of landscape fragmentation on biodiversity. Connectivity methods that use link-based methods traditionally rely on relating pairwise genetic distance between ...

Expectile Neural Networks for Genetic Data Analysis of Complex Diseases.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
The genetic etiologies of common diseases are highly complex and heterogeneous. Classic methods, such as linear regression, have successfully identified numerous variants associated with complex diseases. Nonetheless, for most diseases, the identifie...

Predicting Antigenic Distance from Genetic Data for PRRSV-Type 1: Applications of Machine Learning.

Microbiology spectrum
The control of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) remains a significant challenge due to the genetic and antigenic variability of the causative virus (PRRSV). Predominantly, PRRSV management includes using vaccines and live virus in...

A machine learning approach based on ACMG/AMP guidelines for genomic variant classification and prioritization.

Scientific reports
Genomic variant interpretation is a critical step of the diagnostic procedure, often supported by the application of tools that may predict the damaging impact of each variant or provide a guidelines-based classification. We propose the application o...

Machine learning random forest for predicting oncosomatic variant NGS analysis.

Scientific reports
Since 2017, we have used IonTorrent NGS platform in our hospital to diagnose and treat cancer. Analyzing variants at each run requires considerable time, and we are still struggling with some variants that appear correct on the metrics at first, but ...

Disease variant prediction with deep generative models of evolutionary data.

Nature
Quantifying the pathogenicity of protein variants in human disease-related genes would have a marked effect on clinical decisions, yet the overwhelming majority (over 98%) of these variants still have unknown consequences. In principle, computational...

Revisiting the out of Africa event with a deep-learning approach.

American journal of human genetics
Anatomically modern humans evolved around 300 thousand years ago in Africa. They started to appear in the fossil record outside of Africa as early as 100 thousand years ago, although other hominins existed throughout Eurasia much earlier. Recently, s...

Evolutionarily informed machine learning enhances the power of predictive gene-to-phenotype relationships.

Nature communications
Inferring phenotypic outcomes from genomic features is both a promise and challenge for systems biology. Using gene expression data to predict phenotypic outcomes, and functionally validating the genes with predictive powers are two challenges we add...
