Application of an efficient Bayesian discretization method to biomedical dataJonathan L Lustgarten
Department of Biomedical Informatics and the Intelligent Systems Program, University of Pittsburgh, Suite M 183 Vale, Parkvale Building, 200 Meyran Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 12:309. 2011..We compared the performance of EBD to Fayyad and Irani's (FI) discretization method, which is commonly used for discretization...
Knowledge-based variable selection for learning rules from proteomic dataJonathan L Lustgarten
Department of Biomedical Informatics, University of Pittsburgh, 200 Meyran Ave, Parkvale M 183, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 10:S16. 2009..In particular, we use the Empirical Proteomics Ontology Knowledge Base (EPO-KB) that contains previously identified and validated proteomic biomarkers to select m/zs in a proteomic dataset prior to analysis to increase performance...
Bayesian rule learning for biomedical data miningVanathi Gopalakrishnan
Department of Biomedical Informatics, University of Pittsburgh, 200 Meyran Avenue Suite M 183, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA
Bioinformatics 26:668-75. 2010..Moreover, BRL produces models that contain on average 70% fewer variables, which means that the biomarker panels for disease prediction contain fewer markers for further verification and validation by bench scientists...
Discovery and verification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis biomarkers by proteomicsHenrik Ryberg
Department of Pathology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, BST S 420, 200 Lothrop Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15261, USA
Muscle Nerve 42:104-11. 2010..CRP levels were increased in the CSF of ALS patients, and cystatin C level correlated with survival in patients with limb-onset disease. Our biomarker panel predicted ALS with an overall accuracy of 82%...
Measuring stability of feature selection in biomedical datasetsJonathan L Lustgarten
University of Pittsburgh Department of Biomedical Informatics, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
AMIA Annu Symp Proc 2009:406-10. 2009..We demonstrate the application of this measure on a biomedical dataset...
Protein fold recognition using segmentation conditional random fields (SCRFs)Yan Liu
School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
J Comput Biol 13:394-406. 2006..Applying our prediction model to the Uniprot Database, we identify previously unknown potential beta-helices...
Proteomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid identifies biomarkers for amyotrophic lateral sclerosisSrikanth Ranganathan
Department of Pathology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15261, USA
J Neurochem 95:1461-71. 2005..We validated the SELDI-TOF-MS results for transthyretin and cystatin C by immunoblot and immunohistochemistry using commercially available antibodies. These findings identify a panel of CSF protein biomarkers for ALS...
Transfer learning of classification rules for biomarker discovery and verification from molecular profiling studiesPhilip Ganchev
Intelligent Systems Program, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
J Biomed Inform 44:S17-23. 2011..It also improves performance over using the union of the data sets...
Machine-learning techniques for macromolecular crystallization dataVanathi Gopalakrishnan
Intelligent Systems Laboratory, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA
Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 60:1705-16. 2004..Computational experiments indicate that such a system can retain and present informative rules pertaining to protein crystallization that warrant further confirmation via experimental techniques...
Comparison of probabilistic combination methods for protein secondary structure predictionYan Liu
Language Technologies Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA15213, USA
Bioinformatics 20:3099-107. 2004..In particular, conditional random fields (CRFs) moderately improve the predictions for helices and, more importantly, for beta sheets, which are the major bottleneck for protein secondary structure prediction...
