Biclustering has become a popular technique for the study of gene expression data, especially for discovering functionally related gene sets under different subsets of experimental conditions. Most of biclustering approaches use a measure or cost function that determines the quality of biclusters. In such cases, the development of both a suitable heuristics and a good measure for guiding the search are essential for discovering interesting biclusters in an expression matrix. Nevertheless, not all existing biclustering approaches base their search on evaluation measures for biclusters. There exists a diverse set of biclustering tools that follow different strategies and algorithmic concepts which guide the search towards meaningful results. In this paper we present a extensive survey of biclustering approaches, classifying them into two categories according to whether or not use evaluation metrics within the search method: biclustering algorithms based on evaluation measures and non metric-based biclustering algorithms. In both cases, they have been classified according to the type of meta-heuristics which they are based on.

Background: There are documented differences in Breast cancer (BrCA) presentations and outcomes between Black and White patients. In addition to molecular factors, socioeconomic, racial, and clinical factors result in disparities in outcomes for women in the United States. Using machine learning and unsupervised biclustering methods within a multiomics framework, here we sought to shed light on the biological and clinical underpinnings of observed differences between Black and White BrCA patients.

The growing availability of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and large-scale biobanks provides an unprecedented opportunity to explore the genetic basis of complex traits and diseases. However, with this vast amount of data comes the challenge of interpreting numerous associations across thousands of traits, especially given the high polygenicity and pleiotropy underlying complex phenotypes. Traditional clustering methods, which identify global patterns in data, lack the resolution to capture overlapping associations relevant to subsets of traits or genes.

Multimodal learning has emerged as a powerful technique that leverages diverse data sources to enhance learning and decision-making processes. Adapting this approach to analyzing data collected from different biological domains is intuitive, especially for studying neuropsychiatric disorders. A complex neuropsychiatric disorder like schizophrenia (SZ) can affect multiple aspects of the brain and biologies.

Article Synopsis
  • Traditional methods for analyzing gene relationships often focus on symmetric correlations; however, this study introduces a technique to detect 'boolean-asymmetric' relationships (BARs) in gene expression data.
  • The proposed method identifies biclusters enriched with these asymmetric relationships, revealing regulatory influences of certain genes on others that are not apparent in typical analyses.
  • When applied to single-cell RNA sequencing data, the BAR-biclusters provided new insights regarding different cell subsets and gene pathways, leading to improved predictive models compared to those using only symmetric data.
