Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is an asymptomatic malignancy of the bile ducts in the liver. The research is predicated on the assumption that a disease is a cluster of genes interacting in a regulatory network and a few driver genes regulating the network. Keeping this in mind, the paper proposes a Gene Median Ratio Clustering (GMRC) algorithm to independently rank the clusters and identify driver genes by hybridizing gene-median ratio (GMR) and em gene cluster network GCN. GMR then employs the Poisson distribution to translate right-skewed data into the Normal distribution and the Anscombe transformation to eliminate data noise and determine the median difference in gene concentration between distinct disease stages. Additionally, hierarchical clustering is separately applied to raw data for gene clustering based on the RNA sequence count. In the process, GMRC is evaluated over the GSE32225 dataset of 155 patients to extract 12 clusters network for proliferation patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
