In this paper, the authors applied principal component-analysis-based unsupervised feature extraction (PCAUFE) to the RNA expression profiles of 16 COVID-19 patients and 18 healthy control subjects.Abstract:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is raging worldwide. This potentially fatal infectious disease is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, the complete mechanism of COVID-19 is not well understood. Therefore, we analyzed gene expression profiles of COVID-19 patients to identify disease-related genes through an innovative machine learning method that enables a data-driven strategy for gene selection from a data set with a small number of samples and many candidates. Principal-component-analysis-based unsupervised feature extraction (PCAUFE) was applied to the RNA expression profiles of 16 COVID-19 patients and 18 healthy control subjects. The results identified 123 genes as critical for COVID-19 progression from 60,683 candidate probes, including immune-related genes. The 123 genes were enriched in binding sites for transcription factors NFKB1 and RELA, which are involved in various biological phenomena such as immune response and cell survival: the primary mediator of canonical nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activity is the heterodimer RelA-p50. The genes were also enriched in histone modification H3K36me3, and they largely overlapped the target genes of NFKB1 and RELA. We found that the overlapping genes were downregulated in COVID-19 patients. These results suggest that canonical NF-κB activity was suppressed by H3K36me3 in COVID-19 patient blood.read more

PCA-based sub-surface structure and defect analysis for germanium-on-nothing using nanoscale surface topography
TL;DR: In this article , a principal component analysis (PCA)-based database is constructed to correlate surface images with empirically determined sub-surface structures, and from this database, the morphology of buried sub-sub-surface structure is determined only using surface topography.

Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing
Yoav Benjamini,Yosef Hochberg +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach to problems of multiple significance testing is presented, which calls for controlling the expected proportion of falsely rejected hypotheses -the false discovery rate, which is equivalent to the FWER when all hypotheses are true but is smaller otherwise.

Random Forests
TL;DR: Internal estimates monitor error, strength, and correlation and these are used to show the response to increasing the number of features used in the forest, and are also applicable to regression.

Moderated estimation of fold change and dispersion for RNA-seq data with DESeq2
TL;DR: This work presents DESeq2, a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates, which enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression.

Visualizing Data using t-SNE
TL;DR: A new technique called t-SNE that visualizes high-dimensional data by giving each datapoint a location in a two or three-dimensional map, a variation of Stochastic Neighbor Embedding that is much easier to optimize, and produces significantly better visualizations by reducing the tendency to crowd points together in the center of the map.
