Connecting Histopathology Imaging and Proteomics in Kidney Cancer through Machine Learning

Proteomics data encode molecular features of diagnostic value and accurately reflect key underlying biological mechanisms in cancers. Histopathology imaging is a well-established clinical approach to cancer diagnosis. The predictive relationship between large-scale proteomics and H&E-stained histopathology images remains largely uncharacterized. Here we investigate such associations through the application of machine learning, including deep neural networks,…

Biological network topology features predict gene dependencies in cancer cell lines

In this paper we explore computational approaches that enable us to identify genes that have become essential in individual cancer cell lines. Using recently published experimental cancer cell line gene essentiality data, human protein-protein interaction (PPI) network data and individual cell-line genomic alteration data we have built a range of machine learning classification models to…
