Time-course gene sets are collections of predefined groups of genes in some patients gathered over time. The analysis of time-course gene sets for testing gene sets which vary significantly over time is an important context in genomic data analysis. In this paper, the method of generalized estimating equations (GEEs), which is a semi-parametric approach, is applied to time-course gene set data. We propose a special structure of working correlation matrix to handle the association among repeated measurements of each patient over time. Also, the proposed working correlation matrix permits estimation of the effects of the same gene among different patients. The proposed approach is applied to an HIV therapeutic vaccine trial (DALIA-1 trial). This data set has two phases: pre-ATI and post-ATI which depend on a vaccination period. Using multiple testing, the significant gene sets in the pre-ATI phase are detected and data on two randomly selected gene sets in the post-ATI phase are also analyzed. Some simulation studies are performed to illustrate the proposed approaches. The results of the simulation studies confirm the good performance of our proposed approach. 相似文献

Performance of Gene Selection and Classification Methods in a Microarray Setting: A Simulation Study
In a previous article, we investigated the performance of several classification methods for cDNA-microarrays. Via simulations, various experimental settings could be explored without having to conduct expensive microarray studies. For the selection of genes, on which classification was based, one particular method was applied. Gene selection is, however, a very important aspect of classification. We extend the previous study by considering several gene selection methods. Furthermore, the stability of the methods with respect to distributional assumptions is examined by also considering data simulated from a symmetric and asymmetric Laplace distribution, in addition to normally distributed microarray data. 相似文献

Clustering gene expression time course data is an important problem in bioinformatics because understanding which genes behave similarly can lead to the discovery of important biological information. Statistically, the problem of clustering time course data is a special case of the more general problem of clustering longitudinal data. In this paper, a very general and flexible model-based technique is used to cluster longitudinal data. Mixtures of multivariate t-distributions are utilized, with a linear model for the mean and a modified Cholesky-decomposed covariance structure. Constraints are placed upon the covariance structure, leading to a novel family of mixture models, including parsimonious models. In addition to model-based clustering, these models are also used for model-based classification, i.e., semi-supervised clustering. Parameters, including the component degrees of freedom, are estimated using an expectation-maximization algorithm and two different approaches to model selection are considered. The models are applied to simulated data to illustrate their efficacy; this includes a comparison with their Gaussian analogues—the use of these Gaussian analogues with a linear model for the mean is novel in itself. Our family of multivariate t mixture models is then applied to two real gene expression time course data sets and the results are discussed. We conclude with a summary, suggestions for future work, and a discussion about constraining the degrees of freedom parameter. 相似文献

To learn about the progression of a complex disease, it is necessary to understand the physiology and function of many genes operating together in distinct interactions as a system. In order to significantly advance our understanding of the function of a system, we need to learn the causal relationships among its modeled genes. To this end, it is desirable to compare experiments of the system under complete interventions of some genes, e.g., knock-out of some genes, with experiments of the system without interventions. However, it is expensive and difficult (if not impossible) to conduct wet lab experiments of complete interventions of genes in animal models, e.g., a mouse model. Thus, it will be helpful if we can discover promising causal relationships among genes with observational data alone in order to identify promising genes to perturb in the system that can later be verified in wet laboratories. While causal Bayesian networks have been actively used in discovering gene pathways, most of the algorithms that discover pairwise causal relationships from observational data alone identify only a small number of significant pairwise causal relationships, even with a large dataset. In this article, we introduce new causal discovery algorithms—the Equivalence Local Implicit latent variable scoring Method (EquLIM) and EquLIM with Markov chain Monte Carlo search algorithm (EquLIM-MCMC)—that identify promising causal relationships even with a small observational dataset. 相似文献

Identification of influential genes and clinical covariates on the survival of patients is crucial because it can lead us to better understanding of underlying mechanism of diseases and better prediction models. Most of variable selection methods in penalized Cox models cannot deal properly with categorical variables such as gender and family history. The group lasso penalty can combine clinical and genomic covariates effectively. In this article, we introduce an optimization algorithm for Cox regression with group lasso penalty. We compare our method with other methods on simulated and real microarray data sets. 相似文献

Gene regulation plays a fundamental role in biological activities. The gene regulation network (GRN) is a high-dimensional complex system, which can be represented by various mathematical or statistical models. The ordinary differential equation (ODE) model is one of the popular dynamic GRN models. We proposed a comprehensive statistical procedure for ODE model to identify the dynamic GRN. In this article, we applied this model to different segments of time course gene expression data from a simulation experiment and a yeast cell cycle study. We found that the two cell cycle and one cell cycle data provided consistent results, but half cell cycle data produced biased estimation. Therefore, we may conclude that the proposed model can quantify both two cell cycle and one cell cycle gene expression dynamics, but not for half cycle dynamics. The findings suggest that the model can identify the dynamic GRN correctly if the time course gene expression data are sufficient enough to capture the overall dynamics of underlying biological mechanism. 相似文献
