Application of machine learning techniques for creating urban microbial fingerprints.

Biology direct
BACKGROUND: Research has found that human associated microbial communities play a role in homeostasis and the disruption of these communities may be important in an array of medical conditions. However outside of the human body many of these communit...

Massive metagenomic data analysis using abundance-based machine learning.

Biology direct
BACKGROUND: Metagenomics is the application of modern genomic techniques to investigate the members of a microbial community directly in their natural environments and is widely used in many studies to survey the communities of microbial organisms th...

Identification of city specific important bacterial signature for the MetaSUB CAMDA challenge microbiome data.

Biology direct
BACKGROUND: Metagenomic data of whole genome sequences (WGS) from samples across several cities around the globe may unravel city specific signatures of microbes. Illumina MiSeq sequencing data was provided from 12 cities in 7 different countries as ...

Microbiome composition and implications for ballast water classification using machine learning.

The Science of the total environment
Ballast water is a vector for global translocation of microorganisms, and should be monitored to protect human and environmental health. This study utilizes high throughput sequencing (HTS) and machine learning to examine the bacterial and fungal mic...

Machine learning to predict microbial community functions: An analysis of dissolved organic carbon from litter decomposition.

PloS one
Microbial communities are ubiquitous and often influence macroscopic properties of the ecosystems they inhabit. However, deciphering the functional relationship between specific microbes and ecosystem properties is an ongoing challenge owing to the c...

A neural network model predicts community-level signaling states in a diverse microbial community.

PLoS computational biology
Signal crosstalk within biological communication networks is common, and such crosstalk can have unexpected consequences for decision making in heterogeneous communities of cells. Here we examined crosstalk within a bacterial community composed of fi...

MetaNN: accurate classification of host phenotypes from metagenomic data using neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Microbiome profiles in the human body and environment niches have become publicly available due to recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies. Indeed, recent studies have already identified different microbiome profiles in...

Learning Single-Cell Distances from Cytometry Data.

Cytometry. Part A : the journal of the International Society for Analytical Cytology
Recent years have seen an increased interest in employing data analysis techniques for the automated identification of cell populations in the field of cytometry. These techniques highly depend on the use of a distance metric, a function that quantif...

Modelling the influence of environmental parameters over marine planktonic microbial communities using artificial neural networks.

The Science of the total environment
Guanabara Bay is a tropical estuarine ecosystem that receives massive anthropogenic impacts from the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro. This ecosystem suffers from an ongoing eutrophication process that has been shown to promote the emergence of ...

Phy-PMRFI: Phylogeny-Aware Prediction of Metagenomic Functions Using Random Forest Feature Importance.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
High-throughput sequencing techniques have accelerated functional metagenomics studies through the generation of large volumes of omics data. The integration of these data using computational approaches is potentially useful for predicting metagenomi...
