Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a malignant tumor with high lethality, and the aim of this study was to identify promising biomarkers for LUAD. Using the TCGA-LUAD dataset as a discovery cohort, a novel joint framework VAEjMLP based on variational autoencoder (VAE) and multilayer perceptron (MLP) was proposed. And the Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) method was introduced to evaluate the contribution of feature genes to the classification decision, which helped us to develop a biologically meaningful biomarker potential scoring algorithm. Nineteen potential biomarkers for LUAD were identified, which were involved in the regulation of immune and metabolic functions in LUAD. A prognostic risk model for LUAD was constructed by the biomarkers HLA-DRB1, SCGB1A1, and HLA-DRB5 screened by Cox regression analysis, dividing the patients into high-risk and low-risk groups. The prognostic risk model was validated with external datasets. The low-risk group was characterized by enrichment of immune pathways and higher immune infiltration compared to the high-risk group. While, the high-risk group was accompanied by an increase in metabolic pathway activity. There were significant differences between the high- and low-risk groups in metabolic reprogramming of aerobic glycolysis, amino acids, and lipids, as well as in angiogenic activity, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, tumorigenic cytokines, and inflammatory response. Furthermore, high-risk patients were more sensitive to Afatinib, Gefitinib, and Gemcitabine as predicted by the pRRophetic algorithm. This study provides prognostic signatures capable of revealing the immune and metabolic landscapes for LUAD, and may shed light on the identification of other cancer biomarkers.

Pelizzola M, Laursen R, Hobolth A. Model selection and robust inference of mutational signatures using Negative Binomial non-negative matrix factorization. BMC Bioinformatics 2023; 24:187. [PMID: 37158829 PMCID: PMC10165836 DOI: 10.1186/s12859-023-05304-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The spectrum of mutations in a collection of cancer genomes can be described by a mixture of a few mutational signatures. The mutational signatures can be found using non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). To extract the mutational signatures we have to assume a distribution for the observed mutational counts and a number of mutational signatures. In most applications, the mutational counts are assumed to be Poisson distributed, and the rank is chosen by comparing the fit of several models with the same underlying distribution and different values for the rank using classical model selection procedures. However, the counts are often overdispersed, and thus the Negative Binomial distribution is more appropriate. RESULTS We propose a Negative Binomial NMF with a patient specific dispersion parameter to capture the variation across patients and derive the corresponding update rules for parameter estimation. We also introduce a novel model selection procedure inspired by cross-validation to determine the number of signatures. Using simulations, we study the influence of the distributional assumption on our method together with other classical model selection procedures. We also present a simulation study with a method comparison where we show that state-of-the-art methods are highly overestimating the number of signatures when overdispersion is present. We apply our proposed analysis on a wide range of simulated data and on two real data sets from breast and prostate cancer patients. On the real data we describe a residual analysis to investigate and validate the model choice. CONCLUSIONS With our results on simulated and real data we show that our model selection procedure is more robust at determining the correct number of signatures under model misspecification. We also show that our model selection procedure is more accurate than the available methods in the literature for finding the true number of signatures. Lastly, the residual analysis clearly emphasizes the overdispersion in the mutational count data. The code for our model selection procedure and Negative Binomial NMF is available in the R package SigMoS and can be found at https://github.com/MartaPelizzola/SigMoS .

Construction of Home Product Design System Based on Self-Encoder Depth Neural Network. COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND NEUROSCIENCE 2022; 2022:8331504. [PMID: 35498170 PMCID: PMC9050303 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8331504] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Revised: 03/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The traditional home product design system mainly depends on relatively shallow learning network, relatively simple embedded technology and Internet of things technology. The traditional home design system mainly depends on the traditional self-encoder technology. When combined with the deep neural network, this technology has serious defects in the computer vision algorithm, resulting in the serious waste of the corresponding system storage and computing resources, the corresponding system learning efficiency is relatively poor and the learning ability is weak. Based on this, this paper will build a home product design system based on the deep neural network of self-encoder. By improving the sparsity of self-encoder in the process of learning and training, we can further improve the sparsity of the system and further optimize the structure of self-encoder in the design system, The performance of the deep learning model of the design system is further improved through the hierarchical features continuously learned by the self-encoder in the process of home case design. Based on the optimization of the home product design system in this paper, the system effectively improves and improves the accuracy and stability of the internal feature classifier of the system, and improves the overall performance of the furniture design system. In the specific system construction part, based on ZigBee technology and embedded technology as the design carrier, and adhering to the goal of simplicity, intelligence and convenience, this paper designs and constructs the home product design system. The experimental results show that the noise processing level of the proposed home product design system is lower than 4-5db compared with the traditional design system, and the corresponding image classification accuracy is about 4% higher than the traditional design system. Therefore, the experimental results show that the home design system proposed in this paper has obvious advantages.

Abstract
More than 90% of the genetic variants identified from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are located in non-coding regions of the human genome. Here, we present a user-friendly web server, DeepFun (https://bioinfo.uth.edu/deepfun/), to assess the functional activity of non-coding genetic variants. This new server is built on a convolutional neural network (CNN) framework that has been extensively evaluated. Specifically, we collected chromatin profiles from ENCODE and Roadmap projects to construct the feature space, including 1548 DNase I accessibility, 1536 histone mark, and 4795 transcription factor binding profiles covering 225 tissues or cell types. With such comprehensive epigenomics annotations, DeepFun expands the functionality of existing non-coding variant prioritizing tools to provide a more specific functional assessment on non-coding variants in a tissue- and cell type-specific manner. By using the datasets from various GWAS studies, we conducted independent validations and demonstrated the functions of the DeepFun web server in predicting the effect of a non-coding variant in a specific tissue or cell type, as well as visualizing the potential motifs in the region around variants. We expect our server will be widely used in genetics, functional genomics, and disease studies.

Abstract
The next-generation sequencing technology offers a wealth of data resources for the detection of copy number variations (CNVs) at a high resolution. However, it is still challenging to correctly detect CNVs of different lengths. It is necessary to develop new CNV detection tools to meet this demand. In this work, we propose a new CNV detection method, called CBCNV, for the detection of CNVs of different lengths from whole genome sequencing data. CBCNV uses a clustering algorithm to divide the read depth segment profile, and assigns an abnormal score to each read depth segment. Based on the abnormal score profile, Tukey's fences method is adopted in CBCNV to forecast CNVs. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated on simulated data sets, and is compared with those of several existing methods. The experimental results prove that the performance of CBCNV is better than those of several existing methods. The proposed method is further tested and verified on real data sets, and the experimental results are found to be consistent with the simulation results. Therefore, the proposed method can be expected to become a routine tool in the analysis of CNVs from tumor-normal matched samples.

Abstract
Copy number aberrations (CNA) are one of the most important classes of genomic mutations related to oncogenetic effects. In the past three decades, a vast amount of CNA data has been generated by molecular-cytogenetic and genome sequencing based methods. While this data has been instrumental in the identification of cancer-related genes and promoted research into the relation between CNA and histo-pathologically defined cancer types, the heterogeneity of source data and derived CNV profiles pose great challenges for data integration and comparative analysis. Furthermore, a majority of existing studies have been focused on the association of CNA to pre-selected "driver" genes with limited application to rare drivers and other genomic elements. In this study, we developed a bioinformatics pipeline to integrate a collection of 44,988 high-quality CNA profiles of high diversity. Using a hybrid model of neural networks and attention algorithm, we generated the CNA signatures of 31 cancer subtypes, depicting the uniqueness of their respective CNA landscapes. Finally, we constructed a multi-label classifier to identify the cancer type and the organ of origin from copy number profiling data. The investigation of the signatures suggested common patterns, not only of physiologically related cancer types but also of clinico-pathologically distant cancer types such as different cancers originating from the neural crest. Further experiments of classification models confirmed the effectiveness of the signatures in distinguishing different cancer types and demonstrated their potential in tumor classification.

Abstract
With the completion of the International Human Genome Project, we have entered what is known as the post-genome era, and efforts to apply genomic information to medicine have become more active. In particular, with the announcement of the Precision Medicine Initiative by U.S. President Barack Obama in his State of the Union address at the beginning of 2015, "precision medicine," which aims to divide patients and potential patients into subgroups with respect to disease susceptibility, has become the focus of worldwide attention. The field of oncology is also actively adopting the precision oncology approach, which is based on molecular profiling, such as genomic information, to select the appropriate treatment. However, the current precision oncology is dominated by a method called targeted-gene panel (TGP), which uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze a limited number of specific cancer-related genes and suggest optimal treatments, but this method causes the problem that the number of patients who benefit from it is limited. In order to steadily develop precision oncology, it is necessary to integrate and analyze more detailed omics data, such as whole genome data and epigenome data. On the other hand, with the advancement of analysis technologies such as NGS, the amount of data obtained by omics analysis has become enormous, and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, mainly machine learning (ML) technologies, are being actively used to make more efficient and accurate predictions. In this review, we will focus on whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis and epigenome analysis, introduce the latest results of omics analysis using ML technologies for the development of precision oncology, and discuss the future prospects.

Abstract
Approximately 15% of human cancers are estimated to be attributed to viruses. Virus sequences can be integrated into the host genome, leading to genomic instability and carcinogenesis. Here, a new deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model is developed with attention architecture, namely DeepVISP, for accurately predicting oncogenic virus integration sites (VISs) in the human genome. Using the curated benchmark integration data of three viruses, hepatitis B virus (HBV), human herpesvirus (HPV), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), DeepVISP achieves high accuracy and robust performance for all three viruses through automatically learning informative features and essential genomic positions only from the DNA sequences. In comparison, DeepVISP outperforms conventional machine learning methods by 8.43-34.33% measured by area under curve (AUC) value enhancement in three viruses. Moreover, DeepVISP can decode cis-regulatory factors that are potentially involved in virus integration and tumorigenesis, such as HOXB7, IKZF1, and LHX6. These findings are supported by multiple lines of evidence in literature. The clustering analysis of the informative motifs reveales that the representative k-mers in clusters could help guide virus recognition of the host genes. A user-friendly web server is developed for predicting putative oncogenic VISs in the human genome using DeepVISP.
