Simultaneous identification of robust synergistic subnetwork markers for effective cancer prognosis

Abstract: Background: Accurate prediction of cancer prognosis based on gene expression data is generally difficult, and identifying robust prognostic markers for cancer remains a challenging problem. Recent studies have shown that modular markers, such as pathway markers and subnetwork markers, can provide better snapshots of the underlying biological mechanisms by incorporating additional biological information, thereby leading to more accurate cancer classification. Results: In this paper, we propose a novel method fo… Show more

“…The parameter, α , is defined between [0,1] to control this term. It is shown in our previous work [ 11 ] that the size of the network decreases as α gets larger. It is because a larger α tends to cluster genes with similar discriminative power.…”

“…We adopt the subnetwork identification procedure from our previous study [ 11 ], where we utilized a message-passing clustering algorithm, called affinity propagation, to cluster genes whose protein products interact with each other or are closely located in PPI network. The input of this clustering algorithm is the measure of similarity between genes.…”
