In the genomic era, the identification of gene signatures associated with disease is of significant interest. Such signatures are often used to predict clinical outcomes in new patients and aid clinical decision-making. However, recent…
Motivation: Laboratory gene regulatory data for a species are sporadic. Despite the abundance of gene regulatory network algorithms that employ single data sets, few algorithms can combine the vast but disperse sources of data and extract…
In today's data driven world, storing, processing, and gleaning insights from large-scale data are major challenges. Data compression is often required in order to store large amounts of high-dimensional data, and thus, efficient inference…
Deep learning-based nuclei segmentation and classification in pathology images typically rely on large-scale pixel-level manual annotations, which are costly and difficult to obtain across diverse tissues and staining conditions. To address…
In order to overcome the limitations imposed by DNA barcoding when multiplexing a large number of samples in the current generation of high-throughput sequencing instruments, we have recently proposed a new protocol that leverages advances…
This paper presents a new modeling strategy for joint unsupervised analysis of multiple high-throughput biological studies. As in Multi-study Factor Analysis, our goals are to identify both common factors shared across studies and…
A substantial focus of research in molecular biology are gene regulatory networks: the set of transcription factors and target genes which control the involvement of different biological processes in living cells. Previous statistical…
Sequencing technologies have revolutionised the field of molecular biology. We now have the ability to routinely capture the complete RNA profile in tissue samples. This wealth of data allows for comparative analyses of RNA levels at…
DNA sequencing to identify genetic variants is becoming increasingly valuable in clinical settings. Assessment of variants in such sequencing data is commonly implemented through Bayesian heuristic algorithms. Machine learning has shown…
We propose a novel method for automatic program synthesis. P-Tree Programming represents the program search space through a single probabilistic prototype tree. From this prototype tree we form program instances which we evaluate on a given…
By integrating heterogeneous functional genomic datasets, we have developed a new framework for detecting combinatorial control of gene expression, which includes estimating transcription factor activities using a singular value…
Acquiring genomes at single-cell resolution has many applications such as in the study of microbiota. However, deep sequencing and assembly of all of millions of cells in a sample is prohibitively costly. A property that can come to rescue…
Background: The availability of high throughput methods for measurement of mRNA concentrations makes the reliability of conclusions drawn from the data and global quality control of samples and hybridization important issues. We address…
We perform differential expression analysis of high-throughput sequencing count data under a Bayesian nonparametric framework, removing sophisticated ad-hoc pre-processing steps commonly required in existing algorithms. We propose to use…
Image Registration (IR) is the process of aligning two (or more) images of the same scene taken at different times, different viewpoints and/or by different sensors. It is an important, crucial step in various image analysis tasks where…
We present a novel coupled two-way clustering approach to gene microarray data analysis. The main idea is to identify subsets of the genes and samples, such that when one of these is used to cluster the other, stable and significant…
Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and its variations aim to discover collections of genes that show moderate but coordinated differences in expression. However, such techniques may be ineffective if many individual genes in a…
Motivation: Public and private repositories of experimental data are growing to sizes that require dedicated methods for finding relevant data. To improve on the state of the art of keyword searches from annotations, methods for…
We present the extention and application of a new unsupervised statistical learning technique--the Partition Decoupling Method--to gene expression data. Because it has the ability to reveal non-linear and non-convex geometries present in…
In the field of functional genomics, the analysis of gene expression profiles through Machine and Deep Learning is increasingly providing meaningful insight into a number of diseases. The paper proposes a novel algorithm to perform Feature…
