Data Mining is the process of discovering interesting knowledge from large amounts of data stored either in databases, data warehouses, or other information repositories. From biological studies, the Yeast Proteome Database (YPD) is a model for the organization and presentation of genome-wide functional data. Accordingly, a yeast gene expression which is a unicellular DNA is selected which contains 6103 genes and the database combined with a number of related dataset to create a general dataset. DNA-binding transcriptional regulators interpret the genome’s regulatory code by binding to specific sequences to induce or repress gene expression. The gene products including RNA and protein are responsible for the development and functioning of all living membranes by 2 steps process, transcription and translation. Various transcription factors control gene transcription by binding to the promoter regions. Translation is the production of proteins from mRNA produced in transcription. In this study, out of the 169 transcription factors known to access yeast, we are considering those thought to be involved in the response of Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2). They are 22 transcription factors. Each one is partitioned to 3 parts: TF with No H2O2, TF with Low H2O2 and TF with High H2O2. The aim of this paper was to enhance the effectiveness of the integration of hydrogen peroxide response data related to yeast gene expression data to obtain a protein response process model and to label a set of important genes related to this approach.

Woolf, Peter J., and Yixin Wang. A fuzzy logic approach to analyzing gene expression data. Physiol Genomics 3: 9–15, 2000.—We have developed a novel algorithm for analyzing gene expression data. This algorithm uses fuzzy logic to transform expression values into qualitative descriptors that can be evaluated by using a set of heuristic rules. In our tests we designed a model to find triplets of activators, repressors, and targets in a yeast gene expression data set. For the conditions tested, the predictions made by the algorithm agree well with experimental data in the literature. The algorithm can also assist in determining the function of uncharacterized proteins and is able to detect a substantially larger number of transcription factors than could be found at random. This technology extends current techniques such as clustering in that it allows the user to generate a connected network of genes using only expression data.

Recently, large-scale bioinformatics and genomic data have been generated using advanced biotechnology methods, thus increasing the importance of analyzing such data. Numerous data mining methods have been developed to process genomic data in the field of bioinformatics. We extracted significant genes for the prognosis prediction of 1157 patients using gene expression data from patients with kidney cancer. We then proposed an end-to-end, cost-sensitive hybrid deep learning (COST-HDL) approach with a cost-sensitive loss function for classification tasks on imbalanced kidney cancer data. Here, we combined the deep symmetric auto encoder; the decoder is symmetric to the encoder in terms of layer structure, with reconstruction loss for non-linear feature extraction and neural network with balanced classification loss for prognosis prediction to address data imbalance problems. Combined clinical data from patients with kidney cancer and gene data were used to determine the optimal classification model and estimate classification accuracy by sample type, primary diagnosis, tumor stage, and vital status as risk factors representing the state of patients. Experimental results showed that the COST-HDL approach was more efficient with gene expression data for kidney cancer prognosis than other conventional machine learning and data mining techniques. These results could be applied to extract features from gene biomarkers for prognosis prediction of kidney cancer and prevention and early diagnosis.
