Article Abstract

Support vector machines (SVMs) have become a popular technique in the chemometrics and bioinformatics field, and other fields, for the classification of complex data sets. Especially because SVMs are able to model nonlinear relationships, the usage of this technique has increased substantially. This modeling is obtained by mapping the data in a higher-dimensional feature space. The disadvantage of such a transformation is, however, that information about the contribution of the original variables in the classification is lost. In this paper we introduce an innovative method which can retrieve the information about the variables of complex data sets. We apply the proposed method to several benchmark data sets and a metabolomics data set to illustrate that we can determine the contribution of the original variables in SVM classifications. The corresponding visualization of the contribution of the variables can assist in a better understanding of the underlying chemical or biological process.

The calculation of the highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) gap for chemical molecules is computationally intensive using quantum mechanics (QM) methods, while experimental determination is often costly and time-consuming. Machine Learning (ML) offers a cost-effective and rapid alternative, enabling efficient predictions of HOMO-LUMO gap values across large data sets without the need for extensive QM computations or experiments. ML models facilitate the screening of diverse molecules, providing valuable insights into complex chemical spaces and integrating seamlessly into high-throughput workflows to prioritize candidates for experimental validation.

The huge volcanic eruption at Thera (Santorini), situated in the Aegean Sea, occurred within the Late Minoan IA archaeological period. However, its temporal association with Egyptian history has long been a controversial subject. Traditionally, the eruption was placed in the early 18th Dynasty, associated with Pharaoh Thutmose III as the youngest option or with Pharaoh Nebpehtire Ahmose as the oldest possibility.

Rationale: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are used to identify genetic variants for association with schizophrenia (SCZ) risk; however, each GWAS can only reveal a small fraction of this association.

Objectives: This study systematically analyzed multiple GWAS data sets to identify gene subnetwork and pathways associated with SCZ.

Methods: We identified gene subnetwork using dmGWAS program by combining SCZ GWASs and a human interaction network, performed gene-set analysis to test the association of gene subnetwork with clinical symptom scores and disease state, meanwhile, conducted spatiotemporal and tissue-specific expression patterns and cell-type-specific analysis of genes in the subnetwork.

Bacteriocins are antimicrobial peptides/proteins that can have narrow or broad inhibitory spectra and remarkable potency against clinically relevant pathogens. One such bacteriocin that is extensively used in the food industry and with potential for biotherapeutic application is the post-translationally modified peptide, nisin. Recent studies have shown the impact of nisin on the gastrointestinal microbiome, but relatively little is known of how abundant nisin production is in nature, the breadth of existing variants, and their antimicrobial potency.

Coarse-grained (CG) lipid models enable efficient simulations of large-scale membrane events. However, achieving both speed and atomic-level accuracy remains challenging. Graph neural networks (GNNs) trained on all-atom (AA) simulations can serve as CG force fields, which have demonstrated success in CG simulations of proteins.
