Inference of gene expression regulation by miRNA using MiRaGE methodY-h Taguchi
The document describes a method called MiRaGE for inferring gene expression regulation by miRNA. It discusses three applications of the MiRaGE method: 1) Inferring transfection of miRNAs into human lung cancer cells, 2) Inferring gene regulation via miRNA in murine medulloblastoma, and 3) Identifying critical miRNAs for maintaining embryonic stem cell stemness during differentiation into neuronal cells. The MiRaGE method combines miRNA expression profiling with prediction of miRNA target genes to generate rankings of miRNAs likely to be regulating gene expression in each biological system analyzed.
PICS: Pathway Informed Classification System for cancer analysis using gene e...David Craft
We introduce PICS (Pathway Informed Classification System) for classifying cancers based on tumor sample gene expression levels. The method clearly separates a pan-cancer dataset into their tissue of origin and is also able to sub-classify individual cancer datasets into distinct survival classes. Gene expression values are collapsed into pathway scores that reveal which biological activities are most useful for clustering cancer cohorts into sub-types. Variants of the method allow it to be used on datasets that do and do not contain non-cancerous samples. Activity levels of all types of pathways, broadly grouped into metabolic, cellular processes and signaling, and immune system, are useful for separating the pan-cancer cohort. In the clustering of specific cancer types, certain pathway types become more valuable depending on the site being studied. For lung cancer, signaling pathways dominate, for pancreatic cancer signaling and metabolic pathways, and for melanoma immune system pathways are the most useful. This work suggests the utility of pathway level genomic analysis and points in the direction of using pathway classification for predicting the efficacy and side effects of drugs and radiation.
This document describes research on using Bayesian networks to model gene expression data related to breast cancer. The goals are to identify new or known gene interactions, examine network properties, and find significant genes. The methodology involves learning networks from 82 genes using different variable types and sample groups. Centrality metrics are used to identify important "hub" genes. Networks are analyzed to determine if they exhibit small-world or scale-free properties common in biological networks. The results could confirm known pathways or identify new ones relevant to breast cancer.

How Machine Learning Helps Organizations to Work More Efficiently?Tuan Yang
Data is increasing day by day and so is the cost of data storage and handling. However, by understanding the concepts of machine learning one can easily handle the excessive data and can process it in an affordable manner.
The process includes making models by using several kinds of algorithms. If the model is created precisely for certain task, then the organizations have a very wide chance of making use of profitable opportunities and avoiding the risks lurking behind the scenes.

This document discusses clustering algorithms for large datasets that do not fit into main memory. It introduces the Relational K-Means (RKM) algorithm, which limits disk I/O by assigning data points in batches and updating cluster centroids after only 3 iterations. RKM stores cluster assignment and centroid data in matrices on disk and minimizes I/O by accessing matrix rows sequentially. An evaluation shows RKM outperforms standard K-means on large datasets due to its ability to handle data that does not fit in memory through efficient disk access. However, RKM does not address all limitations of K-means clustering.
Robust inference via generative classifiers for handling noisy labelsKimin Lee
This document proposes a new method called "Robust Inference via Generative Classifiers" to handle noisy labels in large datasets. The key ideas are:
1) Induce a "generative classifier" by modeling the hidden feature space of pre-trained DNNs with Gaussian distributions rather than a softmax classifier, to be more robust to outliers from noisy labels.
2) Estimate the parameters of the generative classifier using the Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD) estimator rather than naive sampling, to reduce the effect of outliers.
3) Further improve robustness by ensembling multiple generative classifiers trained on different subsets of data. Experiments show this approach achieves better accuracy than baselines on datasets

Cluster analysis is an unsupervised learning technique used to group similar objects together. It identifies clusters of objects such that objects within a cluster are more closely related to each other than objects in different clusters. Common applications of cluster analysis include document clustering, market segmentation, and identifying types of customers or animals. Popular clustering algorithms include k-means, k-medoids, hierarchical clustering, density-based clustering, and grid-based clustering.
[DSC Europe 23][DigiHealth] Vesna Pajic - Machine Learning Techniques for omi...DataScienceConferenc1

In-silico structure activity relationship study of toxicity endpoints by QSAR...Kamel Mansouri
Several thousand chemicals were tested in hundreds of toxicity-related in-vitro high-throughput screening (HTS)
bioassays through the EPA’s ToxCast and Tox21 projects. However, this chemical set only covers a portion of the chemical
space of interest for environmental risk assessment, leading to a need to fill data gaps with other methods. A cost effective
and reliable approach to fullfill this task is to build quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs).
In this work, a subset of 1877 chemicals from ToxCast were used to build QSAR models. These models will be applied
to predict values for multiple ToxCast assays in a larger environmental database of ~30K chemical structures.
Based on a clustering study by Sipes et al. (2013), the initial molecular targets of this effort consisted of a set of 18
NovaScreen G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) assays. These assays are part of the aminergic category that showed the
highest number of actives within the ToxCast portfolio. Classification methods including SOM, SVM, PLSDA and kNN, were
tested. These methods were coupled to variable selection techniques such as genetic algorithms that were applied in order
to select the best representative molecular descriptors based on statistical fitness functions. The obtained models were
validated and their prediction ability measured. The models that showed good results will be applied within the limits of
their established chemical space defined by the applicability domain.
The document discusses various feature subset selection methods for gene expression datasets, which have a large number of attributes and small number of samples. It describes filter methods like rank-based and space search-based approaches, as well as wrapper and embedded methods. Rank-based filters calculate correlations like Pearson and mutual information scores to select relevant features. Space search filters evaluate feature subsets for relevancy and redundancy. The document also discusses unsupervised feature selection using maximal information coefficient and affinity propagation clustering. It provides an example of applying feature selection to breast cancer subtyping using consensus clustering across multiple datasets.
Cluster analysis is an unsupervised machine learning technique that groups unlabeled data points into clusters. The goal is to categorize data objects such that objects within a cluster are as similar as possible to each other, and as dissimilar as possible to objects in other clusters. Good clustering produces high quality clusters with high intra-class similarity and low inter-class similarity. Clustering has applications in marketing, land use analysis, insurance, and other domains.
The document outlines the general pipeline for transcriptomics analysis based on microarray experiments. It discusses the main steps which include quality control, normalization, annotation, differential expression analysis, clustering, and supplemental analyses such as functional enrichment and transcription factor binding site analysis.

The document provides details on different neural network architectures and training methods that have been employed for emotion recognition from speech in previous studies.
May 2015 talk to SW Data Meetup by Professor Hendrik Blockeel from KU Leuven & Leiden University.
With increasing amounts of ever more complex forms of digital data becoming available, the methods for analyzing these data have also become more diverse and sophisticated. With this comes an increased risk of incorrect use of these methods, and a greater burden on the user to be knowledgeable about their assumptions. In addition, the user needs to know about a wide variety of methods to be able to apply the most suitable one to a particular problem. This combination of broad and deep knowledge is not sustainable.
The idea behind declarative data analysis is that the burden of choosing the right statistical methodology for answering a research question should no longer lie with the user, but with the system. The user should be able to simply describe the problem, formulate a question, and let the system take it from there. To achieve this, we need to find answers to questions such as: what languages are suitable for formulating these questions, and what execution mechanisms can we develop for them? In this talk, I will discuss recent and ongoing research in this direction. The talk will touch upon query languages for data mining and for statistical inference, declarative modeling for data mining, meta-learning, and constraint-based data mining. What connects these research threads is that they all strive to put intelligence about data analysis into the system, instead of assuming it resides in the user.
Hendrik Blockeel is a professor of computer science at KU Leuven, Belgium, and part-time associate professor at Leiden University, The Netherlands. His research interests lie mostly in machine learning and data mining. He has made a variety of research contributions in these fields, including work on decision tree learning, inductive logic programming, predictive clustering, probabilistic-logical models, inductive databases, constraint-based data mining, and declarative data analysis. He is an action editor for Machine Learning and serves on the editorial board of several other journals. He has chaired or organized multiple conferences, workshops, and summer schools, including ILP, ECMLPKDD, IDA and ACAI, and he has been vice-chair, area chair, or senior PC member for ECAI, IJCAI, ICML, KDD, ICDM.

The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.

4. GEMS (Gene Expression Model Selector)
Microarray data Creation of powerful and
reliable cancer diagnostic
models
Equip with best classifier, gene
selection, and cross-validation
methods
11 datasets spanning 74 Evaluation of major algorithms
diagnostic categories & 41 for multicategory
cancer types & 12 normal classification, gene selection
tissue types methods, ensemble classifier
methods & 2 cross validation
designs
5. Major Concerns
• The studies conducted limited experiments in terms of the number of
classifiers, gene selection algorithms, number of datasets and types
of cancer involved.
• Cannot determine which classifier performs best.
• It is poorly understood what are the best combinations of
classification and gene selection algorithms across most array-based
cancer datasets.
• Overfitting.
• Underfitting.
6. Goals for the Development of an Automated
System that creates high-quality diagnostic
models for use in clinical applications
• Investigate which classifier currently available for gene expression
diagnosis performs the best across many cancer types
• How classifiers interact with existing gene selection methods in
datasets with varying sample size, number of genes and cancer
types
• Whether it is possible to increase diagnostic performance further
using meta-learning in the form of ensemble classification
• How to parameterize the classifiers and gene selection
procedures to avoid overfitting
7. Why use Support Vector Machines
(SVMs)?
• Achieve superior classification performance
compared to other learning algorithms
• Fairly insensitive to the curse of dimensionality
• Efficient enough to handle very large-scale
classification in both sample and variables
8. How SVMs Work
• Objects in the input space are mapped using a set of mathematical
functions (kernels).
• The mapped objects in the feature (transformed) space are linearly
separable, and instead of drawing a complex curve, an optimal line
(maximum-margin hyperplane) can be found to separate the two
classes.
10. Binary SVMs
• Main idea is to identify the
maximum-margin hyperplane
Support Vector
that separates training
instances.
• Selects a hyperplane that
maximizes the width of the gap
between the two classes.
• The hyperplane is specified by
support vectors.
• New classes are classified
Hyperplane
depending on the side of the
hyperplane they belong to.
11. 1. Multiclass SVMs: one-versus-rest (OVR)
• Simplest MC-SVM
• Construct k binary SVM
classifiers:
– Each class (positive) vs all
other classes (negatives).
• Computationally Expensive
because there are k quadratic
programming (QP) optimization
problems of size n to solve.
12. 2. Multiclass SVMs: one-versus-one (OVO)
• Involves construction of
binary SVM classifiers for all
pairs of classes
• A decision function assigns
an instance to a class that
has the largest number of
votes (Max Wins strategy)
• Computationally less
expensive
13. 3. Multiclass SVMs: DAGSVM
• Constructs a decision tree
• Each node is a binary SVM for
a pair of classes
• k leaves: k classification
decisions
• Non-leaf (p, q): two edges
– Left edge: not p decision
– Right edge: not q decision
14. 4 & 5. Multiclass SVMs: Weston & Watkins
(WW) and Crammer & Singer (CS)
• Constructs a single classifier by
maximizing the margin between
all the classes simultaneously
• Both require the solution of a
single QP problem of size
(k-1)n, but the CS MC-SVM
uses less slack variables in the
constraints of the optimization
problem, thereby making it
computationally less expensive
16. K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN)
• For each case to be classified,
locate the k closest members
of the training dataset.
? • A Euclidean Distance
measure is used to calculate
the distance between the
training dataset members and
the target case.
? • The weighted sum of the
variable of interest is found for
the k nearest neighbors.
• Repeat this procedure for the
other target set cases.
17. Backpropagation Neural Networks (NN) &
Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNNs)
• Back Propagation Neural Networks:
– Feed forward neural networks with
signals propagated forward through
the layers of units.
– The unit connections have weights
which are adjusted when there is an
error, by the backpropagation
learning algorithm.
• Probabilistic Neural Networks:
– Design similar to NNs except that the
hidden layer is made up of a
competitive layer and a pattern layer
and the unit connections do not have
weights.
18. Ensemble Classification Methods
In order to improve performance:
Classifier 1 Classifier 2 Classifier N
Output 1 Output 2 Output N
Techniques: Major Voting, Decision Trees, MC-SVM (OVR, OVO, DAGSVM)
Ensembled Classifiers
19. Datasets & Data Preparatory Steps
• Nine multicategory cancer diagnosis datasets
• Two binary cancer diagnosis datasets
• All datasets were produced by oligonucleotide-based
technology
• The oligonucleotides or genes with absent calls in all samples
were excluded from analysis to reduce any noise.
21. Experimental Designs
• Two Experimental Designs to obtain
reliable performance estimates and
avoid overfitting.
• Data split into mutually exclusive
sets.
• Outer Loop estimates performance
by:
– Training on all splits but one (use for
testing).
• Inner Loop determines the best
parameter of the classifier.
22. Experimental Designs
• Design I uses stratified 10 fold cross-validation in both loops
while Design II uses 10 fold cross-validation in its inner loop
and leave-one-out-cross-validation in its outer loop.
• Building the final diagnostic model involves:
– Finding the best parameters for the classification using a single loop
of cross-validation
– Building the classifier on all data using the previously found best
parameters
– Estimating a conservative bound on the classifier’s accuracy by using
either Designs
23. Gene Selection
Gene Selection
Methods
Ratio of genes Kruskal-Wallis non-
Signal-to-noise scores
between-categories parametric one-way
to within-category (S2N) ANOVA (KW)
sum of squares (BW)
S2N-OVR S2N-OVO
24. Performance Metrics
• Accuracy
– Easy to interpret
– Simplifies statistical testing
– Sensitive to prior class probabilities
– Does not describe the actual difficulty of the decision problem
for unbalanced distributions
• Relative classifier information (RCI)
– Corrects for the differences in:
• Prior probabilities of the diagnostic categories
• Number of categories
25. Overall Research Design
Stage 1:Conducted a Factorial design involving datasets & classifiers w/o gene
selection
Stage 2: Conducted a Factorial Design w/ gene selection using datasets for which the
full gene sets yielded poor performance
2.6 million diagnostic models generated
Selection of one model for each combination of algorithm and dataset
26. Statistical Comparison among classifiers
To test that differences b/t the best method and the other methods are non-random
Null Hypothesis: Classification algorithm
X is as good as Y
Obtain permutation distribution of XY ∆
by repeatedly rearranging the
outcomes of X and Y at random
Compute the p-value of XY ∆ being greater
than or equal to observed difference XY
∆ over 10000 permutations
If p < 0.05 Reject H0 If p > 0.05 Accept H0
Algorithm X is not as good as Y in terms Algorithm X is as good as Y in terms of
of classification accuracy classification accuracy
29. Total Time of Classification Experiments w/o gene
selection for all 11 datasets and two experimental
designs
• Executed in a Matlab R13
environment on 8 dual-CPU
workstations connected in a
cluster.
• Fastest MC-SVMs: WW & CS
• Fastest overall algorithm: KNN
• Slowest MC-SVM: OVR
• Slowest overall algorithms: NN
and PNN
30. Performance Results (Accuracies) with Gene Selection

Applied the 4 gene selection methods to the 4 most challenging datasets
31. Performance Results (RCI) with Gene Selection Using
Design I
Improvement by gene selection
Applied the 4 gene selection methods to the 4 most challenging datasets
32. Discussion & Limitations
• Limitations:
– Use of the two performance metrics
– Choice of KNN, PNN and NN classifiers
• Future Research:
– Improve existing gene selection procedures with the selection of
optimal number of genes by cross-validation
– Applying multivariate Markov blanket and local neighborhood
algorithms
– Extend comparisons with more MC-SVMs as they become
available
– Updating GEMS system to make it more user-friendly.
33. Contributions of Study
• Conducted the most comprehensive systematic evaluation to
date of multicategory diagnosis algorithms applied to the
majority of multicategory cancer-related gene expression
human datasets.
• Creation of the GEMS system that automates the experimental
procedures in the study in order to:
– Develop optimal classification models for the domain of cancer
diagnosis with microarray gene expression data.
– Estimate their performance in future patients.
34. Conclusions
• MSVMs are the best family of algorithms for these types of data
and medical tasks. They outperform non-SVM machine
learning techniques
• Among MC-SVM methods OVR, CS and WW are the best w.r.t
classification performance
• Gene selection can improve the performance of MC and non-
SVM methods
• Ensemble classification does not further improve the
classification performance of the best MC-SVM methods
