Abstract

Alzheimer's disease Alzheimer's disease (AD) Biclustering Cancer Encoding Genetic expression Independent component analysis Independent component analysis (ICA) matrix factorization Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF)
Unsupervised machine learning approaches are efficient analysis tools for DNA microarray technique which can accumulate hundreds of thousands of genes expression levels in a single experiment. In our study, two unsupervised knowledge-based matrix factorization methods, independent component analysis (ICA) and nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) are explored to identify significant genes and related pathways in microarray gene expression dataset. The advantage of these two approaches is they can be performed as a biclustering method by which genes and conditions can be clustered simultaneously. Furthermore, they can group genes into different categories for identifying related diagnostic pathways and regulatory networks. The difference between these two method lies in ICA assume statistical independence of the expression modes, while NMF need positivity constrains to generate localized gene expression profiles. By combining the significant genes identified by both ICA and NMF, the simulation results show great efficient for finding underlying biological processes and related pathways in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the activation patterns to AD phenotypes.
