Machine learning based disease prediction from genotype data.

Biological chemistry
Using results from genome-wide association studies for understanding complex traits is a current challenge. Here we review how genotype data can be used with different machine learning (ML) methods to predict phenotype occurrence and severity from ge...

Automated AI labeling of optic nerve head enables insights into cross-ancestry glaucoma risk and genetic discovery in >280,000 images from UKB and CLSA.

American journal of human genetics
Cupping of the optic nerve head, a highly heritable trait, is a hallmark of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Two key parameters are vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR) and vertical disc diameter (VDD). However, manual assessment often suffers from poor a...

Large-scale machine-learning-based phenotyping significantly improves genomic discovery for optic nerve head morphology.

American journal of human genetics
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) require accurate cohort phenotyping, but expert labeling can be costly, time intensive, and variable. Here, we develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict glaucomatous optic nerve head features from color ...

Improving brain age estimates with deep learning leads to identification of novel genetic factors associated with brain aging.

Neurobiology of aging
To study genetic factors associated with brain aging, we first need to quantify brain aging. Statistical models have been created for estimating the apparent age of the brain, or predicted brain age (PBA), using imaging data. Recent studies have refi...

Artificial intelligence and leukocyte epigenomics: Evaluation and prediction of late-onset Alzheimer's disease.

PloS one
We evaluated the utility of leucocyte epigenomic-biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection and elucidates its molecular pathogeneses. Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis was performed using the Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip array in 24 l...

A deep learning method for HLA imputation and trans-ethnic MHC fine-mapping of type 1 diabetes.

Nature communications
Conventional human leukocyte antigen (HLA) imputation methods drop their performance for infrequent alleles, which is one of the factors that reduce the reliability of trans-ethnic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) fine-mapping due to inter-ethn...

CADD-Splice-improving genome-wide variant effect prediction using deep learning-derived splice scores.

Genome medicine
BACKGROUND: Splicing of genomic exons into mRNAs is a critical prerequisite for the accurate synthesis of human proteins. Genetic variants impacting splicing underlie a substantial proportion of genetic disease, but are challenging to identify beyond...

Forest and Trees: Exploring Bacterial Virulence with Genome-wide Association Studies and Machine Learning.

Trends in microbiology
The advent of inexpensive and rapid sequencing technologies has allowed bacterial whole-genome sequences to be generated at an unprecedented pace. This wealth of information has revealed an unanticipated degree of strain-to-strain genetic diversity w...

Systems Approach to Pathogenic Mechanism of Type 2 Diabetes and Drug Discovery Design Based on Deep Learning and Drug Design Specifications.

International journal of molecular sciences
In this study, we proposed a systems biology approach to investigate the pathogenic mechanism for identifying significant biomarkers as drug targets and a systematic drug discovery strategy to design a potential multiple-molecule targeting drug for t...
