Novel U-learning method for predicting continuous outcomes from high-dimensional data.
With the wealth of high-throughput sequencing data generated by recent large-scale consortia, predictive gene expression modelling has become an important tool for integrative analysis of transcriptomic and epigenetic data. However, sequencing data-sets are characteristically large, and previously modelling frameworks …
In this paper we propose network methodology to infer prognostic cancer biomarkers based on the epigenetic pattern DNA methylation. Epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation reflect environmental risk factors, and are increasingly recognised for their fundamental role in diseases such as cancer. DNA methylation is a…
DNA Methylation has been the most extensively studied epigenetic mark. Usually a change in the genotype, DNA sequence, leads to a change in the phenotype, observable characteristics of the individual. But DNA methylation, which happens in the context of CpG (cytosine and guanine bases linked by phosphate backbone) dinu…

MarkerMap selects key genes for cell type analysis in single-cell RNA-seq.
Predicts clinical events using a landmark approach with machine learning for large biomarker histories.
This paper introduces the factorial marked temporal point process model and presents efficient learning methods. In conventional (multi-dimensional) marked temporal point process models, event is often encoded by a single discrete variable i.e. a marker. In this paper, we describe the factorial marked point processes w…
We target modeling latent dynamics in high-dimension marked event sequences without any prior knowledge about marker relations. Such problem has been rarely studied by previous works which would have fundamental difficulty to handle the arisen challenges: 1) the high-dimensional markers and unknown relation network amo…
CNMs detect tipping points in complex systems using causal network markers.
The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in routine clinical practice is most commonly based on subjective clinical interpretations. Quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) measures have been shown to reflect neurodegenerative processes in AD and might qualify as affordable and thereby widely available markers to f…
The research reported in this paper identifies the epigenetic biomarker (methylation beta pattern) of breast cancer. Many cancers are triggered by abnormal gene expression levels caused by aberrant methylation of CpG sites in the DNA. In order to develop early diagnostics of cancer-causing methylations and to develop a…
Preterm birth is the most common cause of neonatal death. Current diagnostic methods that assess the risk of preterm birth involve the collection of maternal characteristics and transvaginal ultrasound imaging conducted in the first and second trimester of pregnancy. Analysis of the ultrasound data is based on visual i…
fiBAG integrates multiplatform genomic data to identify disease markers.
Quantifying behavior is crucial for many applications in neuroscience. Videography provides easy methods for the observation and recording of animal behavior in diverse settings, yet extracting particular aspects of a behavior for further analysis can be highly time consuming. In motor control studies, humans or other …
For precision medicine and personalized treatment, we need to identify predictive markers of disease. We focus on Alzheimer's disease (AD), where magnetic resonance imaging scans provide information about the disease status. By combining imaging with genome sequencing, we aim at identifying rare genetic markers associa…
We describe a method that infers whether statistical dependences between two observed variables X and Y are due to a "direct" causal link or only due to a connecting causal path that contains an unobserved variable of low complexity, e.g., a binary variable. This problem is motivated by statistical genetics. Given a ge…

In this study, we tested the interaction effect of multimodal datasets using a novel method called the kernel method for detecting higher order interactions among biologically relevant mulit-view data. Using a semiparametric method on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS), we used a standard mixed-effects linear mo…

The paper proposes a method to assess surrogate heterogeneity in non-randomized data.
The paper analyzes the observability of relative pose estimation using dual quaternions.
Many complex disease syndromes such as asthma consist of a large number of highly related, rather than independent, clinical phenotypes, raising a new technical challenge in identifying genetic variations associated simultaneously with correlated traits. In this study, we propose a new statistical framework called grap…
Feature selection predicts immune state changes in RA mouse model.
Neural network training entails heavy computation with obvious bottlenecks. The Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) programming model allows us to accelerate computation by passing the processing workload from the CPU to the graphics processing unit (GPU). In this paper, we leveraged the power of Nvidia GPUs to …
We present a Bayesian hierarchical multi-view mixture model termed Symphony that simultaneously learns clusters of cells representing cell types and their underlying gene regulatory networks by integrating data from two views: single-cell gene expression data and paired epigenetic data, which is informative of gene-gen…
As societies around the world are ageing, the number of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients is rapidly increasing. To date, no low-cost, non-invasive biomarkers have been established to advance the objectivization of AD diagnosis and progression assessment. Here, we utilize Bayesian neural networks to develop a multivari…

In this paper we extend the market-making models with inventory constraints of Avellaneda and Stoikov ("High-frequency trading in a limit-order book", Quantitative Finance Vol.8 No.3 2008) and Gueant, Lehalle and Fernandez-Tapia ("Dealing with inventory risk", Preprint 2011) to the case of a rather general class of mid…
Let R be an o-minimal expansion of the real field. We introduce a class of Hausdorff limits, the T-infinity limits over R, that do not in general fall under the scope of Marker and Steinhorn's definability-of-types theorem. We prove that if R admits analytic cell decomposition, then every T-infinity limit over R is def…
Flow cytometry is often used to characterize the malignant cells in leukemia and lymphoma patients, traced to the level of the individual cell. Typically, flow cytometric data analysis is performed through a series of 2-dimensional projections onto the axes of the data set. Through the years, clinicians have determined…
In many data exploration tasks it is meaningful to identify groups of attribute interactions that are specific to a variable of interest. For instance, in a dataset where the attributes are medical markers and the variable of interest (class variable) is binary indicating presence/absence of disease, we would like to k…
