DeFine: deep convolutional neural networks accurately quantify intensities of transcription factor-DNA binding and facilitate evaluation of functional non-coding variants.

Nucleic acids research
The complex system of gene expression is regulated by the cell type-specific binding of transcription factors (TFs) to regulatory elements. Identifying variants that disrupt TF binding and lead to human diseases remains a great challenge. To address ...

Modeling positional effects of regulatory sequences with spline transformations increases prediction accuracy of deep neural networks.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Regulatory sequences are not solely defined by their nucleic acid sequence but also by their relative distances to genomic landmarks such as transcription start site, exon boundaries or polyadenylation site. Deep learning has become the a...

Chromatin accessibility prediction via a hybrid deep convolutional neural network.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: A majority of known genetic variants associated with human-inherited diseases lie in non-coding regions that lack adequate interpretation, making it indispensable to systematically discover functional sites at the whole genome level and p...

MRI to MGMT: predicting methylation status in glioblastoma patients using convolutional recurrent neural networks.

Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing. Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), a malignant brain tumor, is among the most lethal of all cancers. Temozolomide is the primary chemotherapy treatment for patients diagnosed with GBM. The methylation status of the promoter or the enhancer regions of the...
