Deriving Disease Modules from the Compressed Transcriptional Space Embedded in a Deep Auto-encoder
2019-06-24
Abstract excerpt
Disease modules in molecular interaction maps have been useful for characterizing diseases. Yet biological networks, commonly used to define such modules are incomplete and biased toward some well-studied disease genes. Here we ask whether disease-relevant modules of genes can be discovered without assuming the prior knowledge of a biological network. To this end we train a deep auto-encoder on a large transcripti...
