    In response to the growing popularity of social web apps, much research has gone into analyzing and developing an AI-based responsive suggestion system. Machine learning and neural networks come in many forms that help online students choose the best texts for their studies. However, when training recommendation models to deal with massive amounts of data, traditional machine learning approaches require additional training models. As a result, they are deemed inappropriate for the personalized recommender generation of learning systems. In this paper, we examine LSTM-based strategies in order to make useful recommendations for future research

    Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome

    The sequence of the human genome encodes the genetic instructions for human physiology, as well as rich information about human evolution. In 2001, the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium reported a draft sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome. Since then, the international collaboration has worked to convert this draft into a genome sequence with high accuracy and nearly complete coverage. Here, we report the result of this finishing process. The current genome sequence (Build 35) contains 2.85 billion nucleotides interrupted by only 341 gaps. It covers ∼99% of the euchromatic genome and is accurate to an error rate of ∼1 event per 100,000 bases. Many of the remaining euchromatic gaps are associated with segmental duplications and will require focused work with new methods. The near-complete sequence, the first for a vertebrate, greatly improves the precision of biological analyses of the human genome including studies of gene number, birth and death. Notably, the human enome seems to encode only 20,000-25,000 protein-coding genes. The genome sequence reported here should serve as a firm foundation for biomedical research in the decades ahead

    A survey of privacy-preserving mechanisms for heterogeneous data types

    Due to the pervasiveness of always connected devices, large amounts of heterogeneous data are continuously being collected. Beyond the benefits that accrue for the users, there are private and sensitive information that is exposed. Therefore, Privacy-Preserving Mechanisms (PPMs) are crucial to protect users’ privacy. In this paper, we perform a thorough study of the state of the art on the following topics: heterogeneous data types, PPMs, and tools for privacy protection. Building from the achieved knowledge, we propose a privacy taxonomy that establishes a relation between different types of data and suitable PPMs for the characteristics of those data types. Moreover, we perform a systematic analysis of solutions for privacy protection, by presenting and comparing privacy tools. From the performed analysis, we identify open challenges and future directions, namely, in the development of novel PPMs

    Changes in the pattern of DNA methylation associate with twin discordance in systemic lupus erythematosus

    Monozygotic (MZ) twins are partially concordant for most complex diseases, including autoimmune disorders. Whereas phenotypic concordance can be used to study heritability, discordance suggests the role of non-genetic factors. In autoimmune diseases, environmentally driven epigenetic changes are thought to contribute to their etiology. Here we report the first high-throughput and candidate sequence analyses of DNA methylation to investigate discordance for autoimmune disease in twins. We used a cohort of MZ twins discordant for three diseases whose clinical signs often overlap: systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, and dermatomyositis. Only MZ twins discordant for SLE featured widespread changes in the DNA methylation status of a significant number of genes. Gene ontology analysis revealed enrichment in categories associated with immune function. Individual analysis confirmed the existence of DNA methylation and expression changes in genes relevant to SLE pathogenesis. These changes occurred in parallel with a global decrease in the 5-methylcytosine content that was concomitantly accompanied with changes in DNA methylation and expression levels of ribosomal RNA genes, although no changes in repetitive sequences were found. Our findings not only identify potentially relevant DNA methylation markers for the clinical characterization of SLE patients but also support the notion that epigenetic changes may be critical in the clinical manifestations of autoimmune disease
