An unsupervised machine learning method for discovering patient clusters based on genetic signatures.

Journal of biomedical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Many chronic disorders have genomic etiology, disease progression, clinical presentation, and response to treatment that vary on a patient-to-patient basis. Such variability creates a need to identify characteristics within patient popu...

Methylomes Reveal Recent Evolutionary Changes in Populations of Two Plant Species.

Genome biology and evolution
Plant DNA methylation changes occur hundreds to thousands of times faster than DNA mutations and can be transmitted transgenerationally, making them useful for studying population-scale patterns in clonal or selfing species. However, a state-of-the-a...

DeepPerVar: a multi-modal deep learning framework for functional interpretation of genetic variants in personal genome.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Understanding the functional consequence of genetic variants, especially the non-coding ones, is important but particularly challenging. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) or quantitative trait locus analyses may be subject to limited...

Deep learning model reveals potential risk genes for ADHD, especially Ephrin receptor gene EPHA5.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identify the risk ADHD-associated variants and genes with significant P-values, they may neglect the combined eff...

Revisiting genome-wide association studies from statistical modelling to machine learning.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Over the last decade, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered thousands of genetic variants underlying complex human diseases and agriculturally important traits. These findings have been utilized to dissect the biological basis of dis...

TAGOOS: genome-wide supervised learning of non-coding loci associated to complex phenotypes.

Nucleic acids research
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) associate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to complex phenotypes. Most human SNPs fall in non-coding regions and are likely regulatory SNPs, but linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks make it difficult to dist...

The drug target genes show higher evolutionary conservation than non-target genes.

Oncotarget
Although evidence indicates that drug target genes share some common evolutionary features, there have been few studies analyzing evolutionary features of drug targets from an overall level. Therefore, we conducted an analysis which aimed to investig...
