A supervised machine learning-based methodology for analyzing dysregulation in splicing machinery: An application in cancer diagnosis.

Abstract:

:Deregulated splicing machinery components have shown to be associated with the development of several types of cancer and, therefore, the determination of such alterations can help the development of tumor-specific molecular targets for early prognosis and therapy. Determining such splicing components, however, is not a straightforward task mainly due to the heterogeneity of tumors, the variability across samples, and the fat-short characteristic of genomic datasets. In this work, a supervised machine learning-based methodology is proposed, allowing the determination of subsets of relevant splicing components that best discriminate samples. The methodology comprises three main phases: first, a ranking of features is determined by means of applying feature weighting algorithms that compute the importance of each splicing component; second, the best subset of features that allows the induction of an accurate classifier is determined by means of conducting an effective heuristic search; then the confidence over the induced classifier is assessed by means of explaining the individual predictions and its global behavior. At the end, an extensive experimental study was conducted on a large collection of transcript-based datasets, illustrating the utility and benefit of the proposed methodology for analyzing dysregulation in splicing machinery.
