A review on advancements in feature selection and feature extraction for high-dimensional NGS data analysis.

Recent advancements in biomedical technologies and the proliferation of high-dimensional Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) datasets have led to significant growth in the bulk and density of data. The NGS high-dimensional data, characterized by a large number of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metagenomics features relative to the number of biological samples, presents significant challenges for reducing feature dimensionality. The high dimensionality of NGS data poses significant challenges for data analysis, including increased computational burden, potential overfitting, and difficulty in interpreting results.

A scalable unsupervised learning of scRNAseq data detects rare cells through integration of structure-preserving embedding, clustering and outlier detection.

Single-cell RNA-seq analysis has become a powerful tool to analyse the transcriptomes of individual cells. In turn, it has fostered the possibility of screening thousands of single cells in parallel. Thus, contrary to the traditional bulk measurements that only paint a macroscopic picture, gene measurements at the cell level aid researchers in studying different tissues and organs at various stages.

A Novel Graph Topology-Based GO-Similarity Measure for Signature Detection From Multi-Omics Data and its Application to Other Problems.

Large scale multi-omics data analysis and signature prediction have been a topic of interest in the last two decades. While various traditional clustering/correlation-based methods have been proposed, but the overall prediction is not always satisfactory. To solve these challenges, in this article, we propose a new approach by leveraging the Gene Ontology (GO)similarity combined with multiomics data.

A New Feature Vector Based on Gene Ontology Terms for Protein-Protein Interaction Prediction.

Protein-protein interaction (PPI) plays a key role in understanding cellular mechanisms in different organisms. Many supervised classifiers like Random Forest (RF) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) have been used for intra or inter-species interaction prediction. For improving the prediction performance, in this paper we propose a novel set of features to represent a protein pair using their annotated Gene Ontology (GO) terms, including their ancestors.

A New Path Based Hybrid Measure for Gene Ontology Similarity.

Gene Ontology (GO) consists of a controlled vocabulary of terms, annotating a gene or gene product, structured in a directed acyclic graph. In the graph, semantic relations connect the terms, that represent the knowledge of functional description and cellular component information of gene products. GO similarity gives us a numerical representation of biological relationship between a gene set, which can be used to infer various biological facts such as protein interaction, structural similarity, gene clustering, etc.
