Heuristic Non Parametric Collateral Missing Value Imputation: A Step Towards Robust Post-genomic Knowledge Discovery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Microarrays are able to measure the patterns of expression of thousands of genes in a genome to give profiles that facilitate much faster analysis of biological processes for diagnosis, prognosis and tailored drug discovery. Microarrays, however, commonly have missing values which can result in erroneous downstream analysis. To impute these missing values, various algorithms have been proposed including Collateral Missing Value Estimation (CMVE), Bayesian Principal Component Analysis (BPCA), Least Square Impute (LSImpute), Local Least Square Impute (LLSImpute) and KNearest Neighbour (KNN). Most of these imputation algorithms exploit either the global or local correlation structure of the data, which normally leads to larger estimation errors. This paper presents an enhanced Heuristic Non Parametric Collateral Missing Value Imputation (HCMVI) algorithm which uses CMVE as its core estimator and Heuristic Non Parametric strategy to compute optimal number of estimator genes to exploit optimally both local and global correlations.

How to Improve Postgenomic Knowledge Discovery Using Imputation
While microarrays make it feasible to rapidly investigate many complex biological problems, their multistep fabrication has the proclivity for error at every stage. The standard tactic has been to either ignore or regard erroneous gene readings as missing values, though this assumption can exert a major influence upon postgenomic knowledge discovery methods like gene selection and gene regulato...

Gene expression data is widely used in various post genomic analyses. The data is often probed using microarrays due to their ability to simultaneously measure the expressions of thousands of genes. The expression data, however, contains significant numbers of missing values, which can impact on subsequent biological analysis. To minimize the impact of these missing values, several imputation a...
