Machine Learning Methods

Effective cancer treatment requires a clear subtype. Due to the small sample size, high dimensionality, and class imbalances of cancer gene data, classifying cancer subtypes by traditional machine learning methods remains challenging. The gcForest algorithm is a combination of machine learning methods and a deep neural network and has been indicated to achieve better classification of small samples of data. However, the gcForest algorithm still faces many challenges when this method is applied to the classification of cancer subtypes. In this paper, we propose an improved gcForest algorithm (MLW-gcForest) to study the applicability of this method to the small sample sizes, high dimensionality, and class imbalances of genetic data. The main contributions of this algorithm are as follows: (1) Different weights are assigned to different random forests according to the classification ability of the forests. (2) We propose a sorting optimization algorithm that assigns different weights to the feature vectors generated under different sliding windows. The MLW-gcForest model is trained on the methylation data of five data sets from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA). The experimental results show that the MLW-gcForest algorithm achieves high accuracy and area under curve (AUC) values for the classification of cancer subtypes compared with those of traditional machine learning methods and state of the art methods. The results also show that methylation data can be effectively used to diagnose cancer.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Nach 12 Jahren Entwicklung wird die 11. Version der International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) von der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) im Januar 2022 in Kraft treten. Methodik: Im Rahmen eines selektiven Übersichtsartikels werden die Veränderungen im Hinblick auf die Klassifikation von Angststörungen von der ICD-10 zur ICD-11 zusammenfassend dargestellt. Ergebnis: Die diagnostischen Kriterien der generalisierten Angststörung, Agoraphobie und spezifischen Phobien werden angepasst. Die ICD-11 wird auf Basis einer Lebenszeitachse neu organisiert, sodass die kindesaltersspezifischen Kategorien der ICD-10 aufgelöst werden. Die Trennungsangststörung und der selektive Mutismus werden damit den „regulären“ Angststörungen zugeordnet und können zukünftig auch im Erwachsenenalter diagnostiziert werden. Neu ist ebenso, dass verschiedene Symptomdimensionen der Angst ohne kategoriale Diagnose verschlüsselt werden können. Diskussion: Die Veränderungen im Bereich der Angsterkrankungen umfassen verschiedene Aspekte und sind in der Gesamtschau nicht unerheblich. Positiv zu bewerten ist die Einführung einer Lebenszeitachse und Parallelisierung mit dem Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Schlussfolgerungen: Die entwicklungsbezogene Neuorganisation in der ICD-11 wird auch eine verstärkte längsschnittliche Betrachtung von Angststörungen in der Klinik sowie Forschung zur Folge haben. Damit rückt insbesondere die Präventionsforschung weiter in den Fokus.

Rule Based Approach

Text classification has grown into more significant in managing and organizing the text data due to tremendous growth of online information. It does classification of documents in to fixed number of predefined categories. Rule based approach and Machine learning approach are the two ways of text classification. In rule based approach, classification of documents is done based on manually defined rules. In Machine learning based approach, classification rules or classifier are defined automatically using example documents. It has higher recall and quick process. This paper shows an investigation on text classification utilizing different machine learning techniques.

Different Characteristics

Unsupervised learning in machine learning divides data into several groups. The observations in the same group have similar characteristics and the observations in the different groups have the different characteristics. In the paper, we classify data by partitioning around medoids which have some advantages over the k-means clustering. We apply it to baseball players in Korea Baseball League. We also apply the principal component analysis to data and draw the graph using two components for axis. We interpret the meaning of the clustering graphically through the procedure. The combination of the partitioning around medoids and the principal component analysis can be used to any other data and the approach makes us to figure out the characteristics easily.
