Abstract
Recent studies show that multi-modal data fusion techniques combining information from diverse sources are helpful to diagnose and predict complex brain disorders. However, most existing diagnosis methods have only simply employed a feature combination strategy for multiple imaging and genetic data, ignoring the imaging phenotypes associated with the risk gene information. To this end, we present a hypergraph-regularized multimodal learning by graph diffusion (HMGD) for joint association learning and outcome prediction. Specifically, we first present a graph diffusion method for enhancing similarity measures among subjects given from multi-modality phenotypes, which fully uses multiple input similarity graphs and integrates them into a unified graph with valuable geometric structures among different imaging phenotypes. Then, we employ the unified graph to represent the high-order similarity relationships among subjects, and enforce a hypergraph-regularized term to incorporate both inter- and cross-modality information for selecting the imaging phenotypes associated with the risk single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Finally, a multi-kernel support vector machine (MK-SVM) is adopted to fuse such phenotypic features selected from different modalities for the final diagnosis and prediction. The proposed approach is experimentally explored on brain imaging genetic data of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) datasets. Relevant results present that the proposed approach is superior to several competing algorithms, and realizes strong associations and discovers significant consistent and robust ROIs across different imaging phenotypes associated with the genetic risk biomarkers to guide disease interpretation and prediction.

Abstract
Obesity and type 2 and diabetes mellitus (T2D) are two dual epidemics whose shared genetic pathological mechanisms are still far from being fully understood. Therefore, this study is aimed at discovering key genes, molecular mechanisms, and new drug targets for obesity and T2D by analyzing the genome wide gene expression data with different computational biology approaches. In this study, the RNA-sequencing data of isolated primary human adipocytes from individuals who are lean, obese, and T2D was analyzed by an integrated framework consisting of gene expression, protein interaction network (PIN), tissue specificity, and druggability approaches. Our findings show a total of 1932 unique differentially expressed genes (DEGs) across the diabetes versus obese group comparison (p≤0.05). The PIN analysis of these 1932 DEGs identified 190 high centrality network (HCN) genes, which were annotated against 3367 GO terms and functional pathways, like response to insulin signaling, phosphorylation, lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, etc. (p≤0.05). By applying additional PIN and topological parameters to 190 HCN genes, we further mapped 25 high confidence genes, functionally connected with diabetes and obesity traits. Interestingly, ERBB2, FN1, FYN, HSPA1A, HBA1, and ITGB1 genes were found to be tractable by small chemicals, antibodies, and/or enzyme molecules. In conclusion, our study highlights the potential of computational biology methods in correlating expression data to topological parameters, functional relationships, and druggability characteristics of the candidate genes involved in complex metabolic disorders with a common etiological basis.

Abstract
Imaging genomics is a rapidly evolving field that combines state-of-the-art bioimaging with genomic information to resolve phenotypic heterogeneity associated with genomic variation, improve risk prediction, discover prevention approaches, and enable precision diagnosis and treatment. Contemporary bioimaging methods provide exceptional resolution generating discrete and quantitative high-dimensional phenotypes for genomics investigation. Despite substantial progress in combining high-dimensional bioimaging and genomic data, methods for imaging genomics are evolving. Recognizing the potential impact of imaging genomics on the study of heart and lung disease, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute convened a workshop to review cutting-edge approaches and methodologies in imaging genomics studies, and to establish research priorities for future investigation. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions at the workshop. In particular, we highlight the need for increased availability of imaging genomics data in diverse populations, dedicated focus on less common conditions, and centralization of efforts around specific disease areas.

Abstract
Sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) is a bi-multivariate technique used in imaging genetics to identify complex multi-SNP-multi-QT associations. However, the traditional SCCA algorithm has been designed to seek a linear correlation between the SNP genotype and brain imaging phenotype, ignoring the discriminant similarity information between within-class subjects in brain imaging genetics association analysis. In addition, multi-modality brain imaging phenotypes are extracted from different perspectives and imaging markers from the same region consistently showing up in multimodalities may provide more insights for the mechanistic understanding of diseases. In this paper, a novel multi-modality discriminant SCCA algorithm (MD-SCCA) is proposed to overcome these limitations as well as to improve learning results by incorporating valuable discriminant similarity information into the SCCA algorithm. Specifically, we first extract the discriminant similarity information between within-class subjects by the sparse representation. Second, the discriminant similarity information is enforced within SCCA to construct a discriminant SCCA algorithm (D-SCCA). At last, the MD-SCCA algorithm is adopted to fully explore the relationships among different modalities of different subjects. In experiments, both synthetic dataset and real data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative database are used to test the performance of our algorithm. The empirical results have demonstrated that the proposed algorithm not only produces improved cross-validation performances but also identifies consistent cross-modality imaging genetic biomarkers.

Abstract
In the brain imaging genetic studies, it is a challenging task to estimate the association between quantitative traits (QTs) extracted from neuroimaging data and genetic markers such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Most of the existing association studies are based on the extensions of sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) for the identification of complex bi-multivariate associations, which can take the specific structure and group information into consideration. However, they often take the original data as input without considering its underlying complex multi-subspace structure, which will deteriorate the performance of the following integrative analysis. Accordingly, in this paper, the self-expressive property is exploited for the reconstruction of the original data before the association analysis, which can well describe the similarity structure. Specifically, we first apply the within-class similarity information to construct self-expressive networks by sparse representation. Then, we use the fusion method to iteratively fuse the self-expressive networks from multi-modality brain phenotypes into one network. Finally, we calculate the imaging genetic association based on the fused self-expressive network. We conduct the experiments on both single-modality and multi-modality phenotype data. Related experimental results validate that our method can not only better estimate the potential association between genetic markers and quantitative traits but also identify consistent multi-modality imaging genetic biomarkers to guide the interpretation of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
The distinguishable subregions that compose the hippocampus are differently involved in functions associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Thus, the identification of hippocampal subregions and genes that classify AD and healthy control (HC) groups with high accuracy is meaningful. In this study, by jointly analyzing the multimodal data, we propose a novel method to construct fusion features and a classification method based on the random forest for identifying the important features. Specifically, we construct the fusion features using the gene sequence and subregions correlation to reduce the diversity in same group. Moreover, samples and features are selected randomly to construct a random forest, and genetic algorithm and clustering evolutionary are used to amplify the difference in initial decision trees and evolve the trees. The features in resulting decision trees that reach the peak classification are the important "subregion gene pairs". The findings verify that our method outperforms well in classification performance and generalization. Particularly, we identified some significant subregions and genes, such as hippocampus amygdala transition area (HATA), fimbria, parasubiculum and genes included RYR3 and PRKCE. These discoveries provide some new candidate genes for AD and demonstrate the contribution of hippocampal subregions and genes to AD.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder. Since the advent of the genome-wide association study (GWAS) we have come to understand much about the genes involved in AD heritability and pathophysiology. Large case-control meta-GWAS studies have increased our ability to prioritize weaker effect alleles, while the recent development of network-based functional prediction has provided a mechanism by which we can use machine learning to reprioritize GWAS hits in the functional context of relevant brain tissues like the hippocampus and amygdala. In parallel with these developments, groups like the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) have compiled rich compendia of AD patient data including genotype and biomarker information, including derived volume measures for relevant structures like the hippocampus and the amygdala. In this study we wanted to identify genes involved in AD-related atrophy of these two structures, which are often critically impaired over the course of the disease. To do this we developed a combined score prioritization method which uses the cumulative distribution function of a gene’s functional and positional score, to prioritize top genes that not only segregate with disease status, but also with hippocampal and amygdalar atrophy. Our method identified a mix of genes that had previously been identified in AD GWAS including APOE, TOMM40, and NECTIN2(PVRL2) and several others that have not been identified in AD genetic studies, but play integral roles in AD-effected functional pathways including IQSEC1, PFN1, and PAK2. Our findings support the viability of our novel combined score as a method for prioritizing region- and even cell-specific AD risk genes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many individual genes associated with brain imaging quantitative traits (QTs) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However single marker level association discovery may not be able to address the underlying biological interactions with disease mechanism. RESULTS In this paper, we used the MGAS (Multivariate Gene-based Association test by extended Simes procedure) tool to perform multivariate GWAS on eight AD-relevant subcortical imaging measures. We conducted multiple iPINBPA (integrative Protein-Interaction-Network-Based Pathway Analysis) network analyses on MGAS findings using protein-protein interaction (PPI) data, and identified five Consensus Modules (CMs) from the PPI network. Functional annotation and network analysis were performed on the identified CMs. The MGAS yielded significant hits within APOE, TOMM40 and APOC1 genes, which were known AD risk factors, as well as a few new genes such as LAMA1, XYLB, HSD17B7P2, and NPEPL1. The identified five CMs were enriched by biological processes related to disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Legionellosis, Pertussis, and Serotonergic synapse. CONCLUSIONS The statistical power of coupling MGAS with iPINBPA was higher than traditional GWAS method, and yielded new findings that were missed by GWAS. This study provides novel insights into the molecular mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease and will be of value to novel gene discovery and functional genomic studies.

Abstract
Medial temporal lobe (MTL) consists of hippocampal subfields and neighboring cortices. These heterogeneous structures are differentially involved in memory, cognitive and emotional functions, and present nonuniformly distributed atrophy contributing to cognitive disorders. This study aims to examine how genetics influences Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis via MTL substructures by analyzing high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. We performed genome-wide association study to examine the associations between 565,373 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 14 MTL substructure volumes. A novel association with right Brodmann area 36 volume was discovered in an ERC1 SNP (i.e., rs2968869). Further analyses on larger samples found rs2968869 to be associated with gray matter density and glucose metabolism measures in the right hippocampus, and disease status. Tissue-specific transcriptomic analysis identified the minor allele of rs2968869 (rs2968869-C) to be associated with reduced ERC1 expression in the hippocampus. All the findings indicated a protective role of rs2968869-C in AD. We demonstrated the power of high-resolution MRI and the promise of fine-grained MTL substructures for revealing the genetic basis of AD biomarkers.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Brain imaging genetics aims to reveal genetic effects on brain phenotypes, where most studies examine phenotypes defined on anatomical or functional regions of interest (ROIs) given their biologically meaningful interpretation and modest dimensionality compared with voxelwise approaches. Typical ROI-level measures used in these studies are summary statistics from voxelwise measures in the region, without making full use of individual voxel signals. RESULTS In this article, we propose a flexible and powerful framework for mining regional imaging genetic associations via voxelwise enrichment analysis, which embraces the collective effect of weak voxel-level signals and integrates brain anatomical annotation information. Our proposed method achieves three goals at the same time: (i) increase the statistical power by substantially reducing the burden of multiple comparison correction; (ii) employ brain annotation information to enable biologically meaningful interpretation and (iii) make full use of fine-grained voxelwise signals. We demonstrate our method on an imaging genetic analysis using data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, where we assess the collective regional genetic effects of voxelwise FDG-positron emission tomography measures between 116 ROIs and 565 373 single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Compared with traditional ROI-wise and voxelwise approaches, our method identified 2946 novel imaging genetic associations in addition to 33 ones overlapping with the two benchmark methods. In particular, two newly reported variants were further supported by transcriptome evidences from region-specific expression analysis. This demonstrates the promise of the proposed method as a flexible and powerful framework for exploring imaging genetic effects on the brain.

OBJECTIVE The study aimed to explore the collective effects of multiple genetic association signals on an AV-45 PET measure, which is a well-known Alzheimer's disease biomarker, by employing a network assisted strategy. METHODS First, we took advantage of a dense module search algorithm to identify modules enriched by genetic association signals in a protein-protein interaction network. Next, we performed statistical evaluation to the modules identified by dense module search, including a normalization process to adjust the topological bias in the network, a replication test to ensure the modules were not found randomly , and a permutation test to evaluate unbiased associations between the modules and amyloid imaging phenotype. Finally, topological analysis, module similarity tests and functional enrichment analysis were performed for the identified modules. RESULTS We identified 24 consensus modules enriched by robust genetic signals in a genome-wide association analysis. The results not only validated several previously reported AD genes (APOE, APP, TOMM40, DDAH1, PARK2, ATP5C1, PVRL2, ELAVL1, ACTN1 and NRF1), but also nominated a few novel genes (ABL1, ABLIM2) that have not been studied in Alzheimer's disease but have shown associations with other neurodegenerative diseases. CONCLUSION The identified genes, consensus modules and enriched pathways may provide important clues to future research on the neurobiology of Alzheimer's disease and suggest potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Imaging genetics is a methodology for discovering associations between imaging and genetic variables. Many studies adopted sparse models such as sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) for imaging genetics. These methods are limited to modeling the linear imaging genetics relationship and cannot capture the non-linear high-level relationship between the explored variables. Deep learning approaches are underexplored in imaging genetics, compared to their great successes in many other biomedical domains such as image segmentation and disease classification. In this work, we proposed a deep learning model to select genetic features that can explain the imaging features well. Our empirical study on simulated and real datasets demonstrated that our method outperformed the widely used SCCA method and was able to select important genetic features in a robust fashion. These promising results indicate our deep learning model has the potential to reveal new biomarkers to improve mechanistic understanding of the studied brain disorders.

Abstract
Imaging genetics is a method used to detect associations between imaging and genetic variables. Some researchers have used sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) for imaging genetics. This study was conducted to improve the efficiency and interpretability of SCCA. We propose a connectivity-based penalty for incorporating biological prior information. Our proposed approach, named joint connectivity-based SCCA (JCB-SCCA), includes the proposed penalty and can handle multi-modal neuroimaging datasets. Different neuroimaging techniques provide distinct information on the brain and have been used to investigate various neurological disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD). We applied our algorithm to simulated and real imaging genetics datasets for performance evaluation. Our algorithm was able to select important features in a more robust manner compared with other multivariate methods. The algorithm revealed promising features of single-nucleotide polymorphisms and brain regions related to PD by using a real imaging genetic dataset. The proposed imaging genetics model can be used to improve clinical diagnosis in the form of novel potential biomarkers. We hope to apply our algorithm to cohorts such as Alzheimer's patients or healthy subjects to determine the generalizability of our algorithm.

Abstract
Brain imaging genomics is an emerging data science field, where integrated analysis of brain imaging and genomics data, often combined with other biomarker, clinical and environmental data, is performed to gain new insights into the phenotypic, genetic and molecular characteristics of the brain as well as their impact on normal and disordered brain function and behavior. It has enormous potential to contribute significantly to biomedical discoveries in brain science. Given the increasingly important role of statistical and machine learning in biomedicine and rapidly growing literature in brain imaging genomics, we provide an up-to-date and comprehensive review of statistical and machine learning methods for brain imaging genomics, as well as a practical discussion on method selection for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Brain imaging genetics aims to reveal genetic effects on brain phenotypes, where most studies examine phenotypes defined on anatomical or functional regions of interest (ROIs) given their biologically meaningful annotation and modest dimensionality compared with voxel-wise approaches. Typical ROI-level measures used in these studies are summary statistics from voxel-wise measures in the region, without making full use of individual voxel signals. In this paper, we propose a flexible and powerful framework for mining regional imaging genetic associations via voxel-wise enrichment analysis, which embraces the collective effect of weak voxel-level signals within an ROI. We demonstrate our method on an imaging genetic analysis using data from the Alzheimers Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, where we assess the collective regional genetic effects of voxel-wise FDGPET measures between 116 ROIs and 19 AD candidate SNPs. Compared with traditional ROI-wise and voxel-wise approaches, our method identified 102 additional significant associations, some of which were further supported by evidences in brain tissue-specific expression analysis. This demonstrates the promise of the proposed method as a flexible and powerful framework for exploring imaging genetic effects on the brain.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease in which outcomes vary among different racial groups. Here, we aim to identify SLE subgroups within a multiethnic cohort using an unsupervised clustering approach based on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria. We identify three patient clusters that vary according to disease severity. Methylation association analysis identifies a set of 256 differentially methylated CpGs across clusters, including 101 CpGs in genes in the Type I Interferon pathway, and we validate these associations in an external cohort. A cis-methylation quantitative trait loci analysis identifies 744 significant CpG-SNP pairs. The methylation signature is enriched for ethnic-associated CpGs suggesting that genetic and non-genetic factors may drive outcomes and ethnic-associated methylation differences. Our computational approach highlights molecular differences associated with clusters rather than single outcome measures. This work demonstrates the utility of applying integrative methods to address clinical heterogeneity in multifactorial multi-ethnic disease settings.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition that currently has no known cure. The principles of the expanding field of network medicine (NM) have recently been applied to AD research. The main principle of NM proposes that diseases are much more complicated than one mutation in one gene, and incorporate different genes, connections between genes, and pathways that may include multiple diseases to create full scale disease networks. AD research findings as a result of the application of NM principles have suggested that functional network connectivity, myelination, myeloid cells, and genes and pathways may play an integral role in AD progression, and may be integral to the search for a cure. Different aspects of the AD pathology could be potential targets for drug therapy to slow down or stop the disease from advancing, but more research is needed to reach definitive conclusions. Additionally, the holistic approaches of network pharmacology in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) research may be viable options for the AD treatment, and may lead to an effective cure for AD in the future.

Abstract
Neuroimaging genomics is an emerging field that provides exciting opportunities to understand the genetic basis of brain structure and function. The unprecedented scale and complexity of the imaging and genomics data, however, have presented critical computational bottlenecks. In this work we present our initial efforts towards building an interactive visual exploratory system for mining big data in neuroimaging genomics. A GPU accelerated browsing tool for neuroimaging genomics is created that implements the ANOVA algorithm for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) based analysis and the VEGAS algorithm for gene-based analysis, and executes them at interactive rates. The ANOVA algorithm is 110 times faster than the 4-core OpenMP version, while the VEGAS algorithm is 375 times faster than its 4-core OpenMP counter part. This approach lays a solid foundation for researchers to address the challenges of mining large-scale imaging genomics datasets via interactive visual exploration.
