Exploratory analysis of metabolic changes using mass spectrometry data and graph embeddings.

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based metabolomics analysis is a powerful tool, but it comes with its own set of challenges. The MS workflow involves multiple steps before its interpretation in what is denominate data mining. Data mining consists of a two-step process.

Graph embedding on mass spectrometry- and sequencing-based biomedical data.

Graph embedding techniques are using deep learning algorithms in data analysis to solve problems of such as node classification, link prediction, community detection, and visualization. Although typically used in the context of guessing friendships in social media, several applications for graph embedding techniques in biomedical data analysis have emerged. While these approaches remain computationally demanding, several developments over the last years facilitate their application to study biomedical data and thus may help advance biological discoveries.
