GEMDiff: a diffusion workflow bridges between normal and tumor gene expression states: a breast cancer case study.

Breast cancer remains a significant global health challenge due to its complexity, which arises from multiple genetic and epigenetic mutations that originate in normal breast tissue. Traditional machine learning models often fall short in addressing the intricate gene interactions that complicate drug design and treatment strategies. In contrast, our study introduces GEMDiff, a novel computational workflow leveraging a diffusion model to bridge the gene expression states between normal and tumor conditions.

Immune centroids oversampling method for binary classification.

To improve the classification performance of imbalanced learning, a novel oversampling method, immune centroids oversampling technique (ICOTE) based on an immune network, is proposed. ICOTE generates a set of immune centroids to broaden the decision regions of the minority class space. The representative immune centroids are regarded as synthetic examples in order to resolve the imbalance problem.
