Background: Recent assays for individual-specific genome-wide DNA methylation profiles have enabled epigenome-wide association studies to identify specific CpG sites associated with a phenotype. Computational prediction of CpG site-specific…
Many researches demonstrated that the DNA methylation, which occurs in the context of a CpG, has strong correlation with diseases, including cancer. There is a strong interest in analyzing the DNA methylation data to find how to distinguish…
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression by adding methyl groups to DNA. Abnormal methylation patterns can disrupt gene expression and have been linked to cancer development. To quantify DNA methylation,…
DNA Methylation has been the most extensively studied epigenetic mark. Usually a change in the genotype, DNA sequence, leads to a change in the phenotype, observable characteristics of the individual. But DNA methylation, which happens in…
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism whose important role in development has been widely recognized. This epigenetic modification results in heritable changes in gene expression not encoded by the DNA sequence. The underlying…
Epigenetic alterations have an important role in the development of several types of cancer. Epigenetic studies generate a large amount of data, which makes it essential to develop novel models capable of dealing with large-scale data. In…
The research reported in this paper identifies the epigenetic biomarker (methylation beta pattern) of breast cancer. Many cancers are triggered by abnormal gene expression levels caused by aberrant methylation of CpG sites in the DNA. In…
Interrogating the evolution of biological changes at early stages of life requires longitudinal profiling of molecules, such as DNA methylation, which can be challenging with children. We introduce a probabilistic and longitudinal machine…
A Deep Autoencoder based content retrieval algorithm is proposed for prediction and differentiation of cancer types based on the presence of epigenetic patterns of DNA methylation identified in genetic regions known as CpG islands. The…
Methylation of CpG dinucleotides is a prevalent epigenetic modification that is required for proper development in vertebrates, and changes in CpG methylation are essential to cellular differentiation. Genome-wide DNA methylation assays…
This paper explores the transgenerational DNA methylation pattern (DNA methylation transmitted from one generation to the next) via a clustering approach. Beta regression is employed to model the transmission pattern from parents to their…
A novel method to classify human cells is presented in this work based on the transform-domain method on DNA methylation data. DNA methylation profile variations are observed in human cells with the progression of disease stages, and the…
Accurate computational identification of DNA methylation is essential for understanding epigenetic regulation. Although deep learning excels in this binary classification task, its "black-box" nature impedes biological insight. We address…
DNA methylation is a well-studied genetic modification crucial to regulate the functioning of the genome. Its alterations play an important role in tumorigenesis and tumor-suppression. Thus, studying DNA methylation data may help biomarker…
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mark that has been studied extensively for its regulatory role in biological processes and diseases. WGBS allows for genome-wide measurements of DNA methylation up to single-base resolutions, yet…
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis is a powerful, minimally invasive tool for monitoring disease progression, treatment response, and early detection. A major challenge, however, is accurately determining the tissue of origin, especially in…
DNA methylation is an important biological mechanism to regulate gene expression and control cell development. Mechanistic modeling has become a popular approach to enhance our understanding of the dynamics of methylation pattern formation…
Motivation: Bisulphite sequencing enables the detection of cytosine methylation. The sequence of the methylation states of cytosines on any given read forms a methylation pattern that carries substantially more information than merely…
During mammalian embryo development, reprogramming of DNA methylation plays important roles in the erasure of parental epigenetic memory and the establishment of na\"{i}ve pluripogent cells. Multiple enzymes that regulate the processes of…
Identifying differentially methylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) sites between benign and tumour samples can assist in understanding disease. However, differential analysis of bounded DNA methylation data often requires data…
