Cross-species regulatory sequence activity prediction.

PLoS computational biology
Machine learning algorithms trained to predict the regulatory activity of nucleic acid sequences have revealed principles of gene regulation and guided genetic variation analysis. While the human genome has been extensively annotated and studied, mod...

Morphological traits of drought tolerant horse gram germplasm: classification through machine learning.

Journal of the science of food and agriculture
BACKGROUND: Horse gram (Macrotyloma uniflorum (Lam.) Verdc.) is an underutilized pulse crop with good drought resistance traits. It is a rich source of protein. Conventional breeding methods for high yielding and abiotic stress tolerant germplasm are...

DeepWAS: Multivariate genotype-phenotype associations by directly integrating regulatory information using deep learning.

PLoS computational biology
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identify genetic variants associated with traits or diseases. GWAS never directly link variants to regulatory mechanisms. Instead, the functional annotation of variants is typically inferred by post hoc analyses...

TSLRF: Two-Stage Algorithm Based on Least Angle Regression and Random Forest in genome-wide association studies.

Scientific reports
One of the most important tasks in genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) is the detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which are related to target traits. With the development of sequencing technology, traditional statistical methods a...

QTG-Finder: A Machine-Learning Based Algorithm To Prioritize Causal Genes of Quantitative Trait Loci in Arabidopsis and Rice.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.)
Linkage mapping is one of the most commonly used methods to identify genetic loci that determine a trait. However, the loci identified by linkage mapping may contain hundreds of candidate genes and require a time-consuming and labor-intensive fine ma...

Multivariate Cluster-Based Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction to Identify Genetic Interactions for Multiple Quantitative Phenotypes.

BioMed research international
To understand the pathophysiology of complex diseases, including hypertension, diabetes, and autism, deleterious phenotypes are unlikely due to the effects of single genes, but rather, gene-gene interactions (GGIs), which are widely analyzed by multi...

A directed learning strategy integrating multiple omic data improves genomic prediction.

Plant biotechnology journal
Genomic prediction (GP) aims to construct a statistical model for predicting phenotypes using genome-wide markers and is a promising strategy for accelerating molecular plant breeding. However, current progress of phenotype prediction using genomic d...

Identification of optimal prediction models using multi-omic data for selecting hybrid rice.

Heredity
Genomic prediction benefits hybrid rice breeding by increasing selection intensity and accelerating breeding cycles. With the rapid advancement of technology, other omic data, such as metabolomic data and transcriptomic data, are readily available fo...

Improving eQTL Analysis Using a Machine Learning Approach for Data Integration: A Logistic Model Tree Solution.

Journal of computational biology : a journal of computational molecular cell biology
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis is an emerging method for establishing the impact of genetic variations (such as single nucleotide polymorphisms) on the expression levels of genes. Although different methods for evaluating the impa...

Deep learning sequence-based ab initio prediction of variant effects on expression and disease risk.

Nature genetics
Key challenges for human genetics, precision medicine and evolutionary biology include deciphering the regulatory code of gene expression and understanding the transcriptional effects of genome variation. However, this is extremely difficult because ...
