Article Citation - Scopus: 1eTNT: Enhanced Textnettopics With Filtered LDA Topics and Sequential Forward / Backward Topic Scoring Approaches(Science and Information Organization, 2024) Voskergian, Daniel; Jayousi, Rashid; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuTextNetTopics is a novel text classification-based topic modelling approach that focuses on topic selection rather than individual word selection to train a machine learning algorithm. However, one key limitation of TextNetTopics is its scoring component, which evaluates each topic in isolation and ranks them accordingly, ignoring the potential relationships between topics. In addition, the chosen topics may contain redundant or irrelevant features, potentially increasing the feature set size and introducing noise that can degrade the overall model performance. To address these limitations and improve the classification performance, this study introduces an enhancement to TextNetTopics. eTNT integrates two novel scoring approaches: Sequential Forward Topic Scoring (SFTS) and Sequential Backward Topic Scoring (SBTS), which consider topic interactions by assessing sets of topics simultaneously. Moreover, it incorporates a filtering component that aims to enhance topics' quality and discriminative power by removing non-informative features from each topic using Random Forest feature importance values. These integrations aim to streamline the topic selection process and enhance classifier efficiency for text classification. The results obtained from the WOS-5736, LitCovid, and MultiLabel datasets provide valuable insights into the superior effectiveness of eTNT compared to its counterpart, TextNetTopics. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 20Machine Learning Analysis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease-Associated Metagenomics Dataset(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Hacilar, Hilal; Nalbantoĝlu, Özkan Ufuk; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuThere is an ongoing interplay between humans and our microbial communities. The microorganisms living in our gut produce energy from our food, strengthen our immune system, break down foreign products, and release metabolites and hormones, which are significant for regulating our physiology. The shifts away from this 'healthy' gut microbiome is considered to be associated with many diseases. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are gut related disorders affecting the intestinal tract. Although some metagenomics studies are conducted on IBD recently, our current understanding of the precise relationships between the human gut microbiome and IBD remains limited. In this regard, the use of state-of-the art machine learning approaches became popular to address a variety of questions like early diagnosis of certain diseases using human microbiota. In this study, we investigate which subset of gut microbiota are mostly associated with IBD and if disease-associated biomarkers can be detected via applying state-of-the art machine learning algorithms and proper feature selection methods. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Identify Commonly Affected Pathways in Psychiatric Diseases(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Bulut, Umit; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuGenome-wide association studies (GWAS) are an extraordinary source of information when it comes to revealing the common variations of human complex diseases. Until now, the large amount of data generated from these studies have not been shown its full potential enough to identify the molecular and functional framework to be able to understand how a molecular system works. Following a more specific perspective, this study focused on the identification of commonly affected pathways of psychiatric diseases. The pathway term as used in molecular biology, depicts a simplified model of a process within the cell or tissue. Lately, several GWAS datasets are publicly available for various disease types such as psychiatric, immune-related, neurodegenerative, cardiovascular and such. A study on each disease and pairwise comparison to understand the behavior of disease and system would be time consuming and exhaustive. Instead of handling the results of these studies one by one, grouping diseases by target points is a more efficient way. This work aims to get one step closer to reveal key points of diseases and target these points to develop personalized medicine approaches. Especially for complex diseases, every drug doesn't show the same effect in every people. This paper contains the definition of molecular pathways, methods to identify disease related pathways, and to find common pathways pairwise in psychiatric diseases. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 52Evaluation of Classification Algorithms, Linear Discriminant Analysis and a New Hybrid Feature Selection Methodology for the Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-12) Kolukisa, Burak; Hacilar, Hilal; Göy, Gökhan; Kus, Mustafa; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Aral, Atilla; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), 31% of the world's total deaths in 2016 (17.9 million) was due to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). With the development of information technologies, it has become possible to predict whether people have heart diseases or not by checking certain physical and biochemical values at a lower cost. In this study, we have evalated a set of different classification algorithms, linear discriminant analysis and proposed a new hybrid feature selection methodology for the diagnosis of coronary heart diseases (CHD). Throughout this research effort, using three publicly available Heart Disease diagnosis datasets (UCI Machine Learning Repository), we have conducted comparative performance evaluations in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-measure, AUC and running time. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Comparison of Disease Specific Sub-Network Identification Programs(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Dedeturk, Beyhan Adanur; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Adanur, Beyhun; Gungor, Burcu BakirActive sub-network search aims to identify a group of interconnected genes in a protein-protein interaction network that contains most of the disease-associated genes. In recent years, to address active sub-network search problem, various algorithms and programs are developed. In this study, performances of disease specific sub-network identification programs are compared. The same input dataset is run in jActiveModules, ActiveSubnetworkGA, CytoHubba, ClusterViz, MCODE, CytoMOBAS, PathFindR, PINBPA and PEWCC programs. Then, functional enrichment analysis is applied on obtained sub-networks. Finally, they are compared according to the results of GO Enrichment Analysis. In addition to these, work performances, features and requirements of programs are compared. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1The Relationship Between PAPP-A Levels, Maternal Characteristics, Gestational Diabetes and Other Biochemical Markers of the Aneuploidy Screening(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Uzut, Ömmu Gülsüm; Kaymakçalan, Hande; Härkönen, Juho; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Celebiler, Hande KaymakcalanFirst trimester aneuploidy screening is routinely used in pregnancy follow-ups. In this screening, free β-hCG and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) levels in the blood of the pregnant woman are measured. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between PAPP-A levels, maternal characteristics, diabetes, ultrasound measurements of the fetus and other biochemical markers of the aneuploidy screening. In this study, we used the dataset of 12 428 pregnant women, who are followed by some of our researchers at the Prenatal Unit of Yale University Hospital in USA. The correlation of free-β-hCG, PAPP-A and Down syndrome risk with thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), glucose and hematocrit was analyzed. A statistically significant correlation (p=0.0005) was found between the PAPP-A levels in the group of diabetic pregnants and PAPP-A levels in non-diabetic pregnant group. Detailed studies on the effect of PAPP-A on insulin growth factor could make it possible to use PAPP-A levels to predict gestational diabetes. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
