    Data mining is the process of analysing data from different views points and condensing it into useful information. There are several types of algorithms in data mining such as Classification algorithms, Regression,Segmentation algorithms, Association algorithms, Sequence analysis algorithms, etc.,. The classification algorithm can be usedto bifurcate the data set from the given data set and foretell one or more discrete variables, based on the other attributes in the dataset. The ID3 (Iterative Dichotomiser 3) algorithm is an original data set S as the root node. An unutilised attribute of the data set S calculates the entropy H(S) (or Information gain IG (A)) of the attribute. Upon its selection, the attribute should have the smallest entropy (or largest information gain) value. A genetic algorithm (GA) is aheuristic quest that imitates the process of natural selection. Genetic algorithm can easily select cancer data set, from the given data set using GA operators, such as mutation, selection, and crossover. A method existed earlier (KNN+GA) was not successful for breast cancer and primary tumor. Our method of creating new algorithm GA+ID3 easily identifies breast cancer data set from the given data set. The multi classification algorithm diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer data set is identified by this paper

    Cuban Schools for children with Affective – Behavioral Maladies (SABM) have as goal to accomplish a major change in children behavior, to insert them effectively into society. One of the key elements in this objective is to give an adequate orientation to the children’s families; due to the family is one of the most important educational contexts in which the children will develop their personality. The family orientation process in SABM involves clustering and classification of mixed type data with non-symmetric similarity functions. To improve this process, this paper includes some novel characteristics in clustering and prototype selection. The proposed approach uses a hierarchical clustering based on compact sets, making it suitable for dealing with non-symmetric similarity functions, as well as with mixed and incomplete data. The proposal obtains very good results on the SABM data, and over repository databases

    Exploring the genetic redundancy of Zea mays fatty acid elongase (FAE)

    Get PDF
    Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) consist of greater than 18 carbon atoms and have diverse biological functions including energy storage, protection from biotic and abiotic stresses, signaling, and are components of the plasma membrane. The biosynthesis of VLCFAs occurs by the iterative extension of fatty acyl-CoAs through a series of reactions catalyzed by four enzyme components known as fatty acid elongase (FAE). The FAE enzyme 3-ketoacyl CoA synthase (KCS) is hypothesized to be responsible for the substrate specificity of FAE, controlling the amount and identity of VLCFAs produced in specific cell types and tissues. The KCS gene family consists of multiple homologs in plant species, including 21 paralogs in Arabidopsis thaliana. This manuscript details the identification and analysis of KCS condensing enzymes from Zea mays. The genetic redundancy within FAE along with the membrane-bound nature of KCS and other FAE enzymes are challenges when studying this enzyme system. Because of these obstacles, heterologous expression in yeast was employed for the characterization of maize KCS enzymes. The fatty acid composition of yeast strains was determined using GC-MS, revealing KCS-dependent differences in VLCFAs and uncovering new questions about the synthesis of VLCFAs in maize

    Generating indicative-informative summaries with SumUM

    Get PDF
    We present and evaluate SumUM, a text summarization system that takes a raw technical text as input and produces an indicative informative summary. The indicative part of the summary identifies the topics of the document, and the informative part elaborates on some of these topics according to the reader's interest. SumUM motivates the topics, describes entities, and defines concepts. It is a first step for exploring the issue of dynamic summarization. This is accomplished through a process of shallow syntactic and semantic analysis, concept identification, and text regeneration. Our method was developed through the study of a corpus of abstracts written by professional abstractors. Relying on human judgment, we have evaluated indicativeness, informativeness, and text acceptability of the automatic summaries. The results thus far indicate good performance when compared with other summarization technologies

    A Novel Approach for Detecting Outliers by Using Isolation Forest with Reducing Under Fitting Issue

    The effectiveness of machine learning for a particular activity depends on a variety of parameters. The incident database's description and validity come first and primary. Information retrieval even during the training cycle is more challenging if there is a lot of repetitious, unimportant information or incomplete information available. It is good knowledge that running time for ML tasks is significantly impacted by conditions as follows and sorting stages. To increase the accuracy of any model data cleansing is essential. Without sufficient data scrubbing, no predictive model accuracy can begin. EDA, or exploratory data analysis, is the name of this procedure. In this study, we discussed outlier identification, one of many EDA processes for complete perfect data. In this research, we attempted to use the isolation forest approach to calculate the outlier factor. Then a model known as an outlier finding model is created. The problem of outlier detection leads to a collection of connected supervised learning for binary classification. We carry out in-depth tests on various datasets and demonstrate that in our latest outlier finding technique compare with the old way. Our approach yields superior outcomes in terms of accuracy, precision, recall & F-1 score. Additionally, we successfully lowered the machine learning algorithms' under fitting issue

    Protein Tertiary Model Assessment Using Granular Machine Learning Techniques

    The automatic prediction of protein three dimensional structures from its amino acid sequence has become one of the most important and researched fields in bioinformatics. As models are not experimental structures determined with known accuracy but rather with prediction it’s vital to determine estimates of models quality. We attempt to solve this problem using machine learning techniques and information from both the sequence and structure of the protein. The goal is to generate a machine that understands structures from PDB and when given a new model, predicts whether it belongs to the same class as the PDB structures (correct or incorrect protein models). Different subsets of PDB (protein data bank) are considered for evaluating the prediction potential of the machine learning methods. Here we show two such machines, one using SVM (support vector machines) and another using fuzzy decision trees (FDT). First using a preliminary encoding style SVM could get around 70% in protein model quality assessment accuracy, and improved Fuzzy Decision Tree (IFDT) could reach above 80% accuracy. For the purpose of reducing computational overhead multiprocessor environment and basic feature selection method is used in machine learning algorithm using SVM. Next an enhanced scheme is introduced using new encoding style. In the new style, information like amino acid substitution matrix, polarity, secondary structure information and relative distance between alpha carbon atoms etc is collected through spatial traversing of the 3D structure to form training vectors. This guarantees that the properties of alpha carbon atoms that are close together in 3D space and thus interacting are used in vector formation. With the use of fuzzy decision tree, we obtained a training accuracy around 90%. There is significant improvement compared to previous encoding technique in prediction accuracy and execution time. This outcome motivates to continue to explore effective machine learning algorithms for accurate protein model quality assessment. Finally these machines are tested using CASP8 and CASP9 templates and compared with other CASP competitors, with promising results. We further discuss the importance of model quality assessment and other information from proteins that could be considered for the same

    Data Science techniques for predicting plant genes involved in secondary metabolites production

    Get PDF
    Masters of SciencePlant genome analysis is currently experiencing a boost due to reduced costs associated with the development of next generation sequencing technologies. Knowledge on genetic background can be applied to guide targeted plant selection and breeding, and to facilitate natural product discovery and biological engineering. In medicinal plants, secondary metabolites are of particular interest because they often represent the main active ingredients associated with health-promoting qualities. Plant polyphenols are a highly diverse family of aromatic secondary metabolites that act as antimicrobial agents, UV protectants, and insect or herbivore repellents. Most of the genome mining tools developed to understand genetic materials have very seldom addressed secondary metabolite genes and biosynthesis pathways. Little significant research has been conducted to study key enzyme factors that can predict a class of secondary metabolite genes from polyketide synthases. The objectives of this study were twofold: Primarily, it aimed to identify the biological properties of secondary metabolite genes and the selection of a specific gene, naringenin-chalcone synthase or chalcone synthase (CHS). The study hypothesized that data science approaches in mining biological data, particularly secondary metabolite genes, would enable the compulsory disclosure of some aspects of secondary metabolite (SM). Secondarily, the aim was to propose a proof of concept for classifying or predicting plant genes involved in polyphenol biosynthesis from data science techniques and convey these techniques in computational analysis through machine learning algorithms and mathematical and statistical approaches. Three specific challenges experienced while analysing secondary metabolite datasets were: 1) class imbalance, which refers to lack of proportionality among protein sequence classes; 2) high dimensionality, which alludes to a phenomenon feature space that arises when analysing bioinformatics datasets; and 3) the difference in protein sequences lengths, which alludes to a phenomenon that protein sequences have different lengths. Considering these inherent issues, developing precise classification models and statistical models proves a challenge. Therefore, the prerequisite for effective SM plant gene mining is dedicated data science techniques that can collect, prepare and analyse SM genes
