Mechanistic Models: Compartment Models in Individual and Population Analysis

249
Mechanistic models are utilized in individual analysis using single-source data, but imperfections arise due to data collection errors, preventing perfect prediction of observed data. The mathematical equation involves known values (Xi), observed concentrations (Ci), measurement errors (εi), model parameters (ϕj), and the related function (ƒi) for i number of values. Different least-squares metrics quantify differences between predicted and observed values. The ordinary least...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

15.3K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Polygenic Traits

68.9K
When more than one gene is responsible for a given phenotype, the trait is considered polygenic. Human height is a polygenic trait. Studies have uncovered hundreds of loci that influence height, and there are believed to be many more. Due to the high number of genes involved, as well as environmental and nutritional factors, height varies significantly within a given population. The distribution of height forms a bell-shaped curve, with relatively few individuals in the population at the...

  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Identifying complex phenotypes from high-dimensional biological data is challenging.
  • Traditional methods often miss intricate interdependencies among physiological indicators.
  • Overlooking network interactions hinders phenotype discovery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce ODBAE (Outlier Detection using Balanced Autoencoders) to uncover subtle and extreme outliers.
  • Capture latent relationships among multiple physiological parameters for advanced phenotype detection.
  • Improve outlier detection beyond traditional autoencoder-based methods.

Main Methods:

  • Developed ODBAE, a machine learning method utilizing a revised loss function.
  • Implemented ODBAE to analyze data from the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC).
  • Focused on detecting influential points (IP) and high leverage points (HLP).

Main Results:

  • ODBAE identified knockout mice with complex, multi-indicator phenotypes.
  • The method detected abnormalities missed by traditional approaches.
  • Discovered novel metabolism-related genes and coordinated metabolic abnormalities.

Conclusions:

  • ODBAE effectively detects joint abnormalities in biological systems.
  • This method advances the understanding of homeostatic perturbations.
  • ODBAE is a powerful tool for complex phenotype identification from high-dimensional data.
