This study introduces a novel weighted method for cluster analysis, balancing prior knowledge integration with data-driven insights. This approach enhances the reliability of clustering gene expression profiles, especially when using gene functions as priors.

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Incorporating prior knowledge into cluster analysis improves reliability.
  • Stratified mixture models use gene functions as priors for gene expression clustering.
  • Stratified methods can be inefficient if prior information is non-informative.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a weighted method balancing stratified and global analyses for gene expression clustering.
  • To leverage hierarchical gene functional annotation systems (e.g., Gene Ontology).
  • To improve the selection of appropriate gene functional groups as priors.

Main Methods:

  • A weighted method combining stratified and global clustering results.
  • Data-driven determination of weights for combining analyses.

  • Application to simulated and real gene expression data.

    • Main Results:

    • Demonstrated feasibility and advantages of the weighted method.
    • Showcased effective integration of prior knowledge from gene functions.
    • Highlighted improved clustering of gene expression profiles.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed weighted method offers a flexible and effective approach to prior knowledge integration in clustering.
    • It provides a balance between leveraging biological pathways and data-driven clustering.
    • This method enhances the interpretability and reliability of gene expression analysis.
