Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3MicroRNA Prediction Based on 3D Graphical Representation of RNA Secondary Structures(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-08-05) Sacar Demirci, Muserref Duygu; Demirci, Müşerref Duygu SaçarMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression. While a miRNA can target hundreds of messenger RNA (mRNAs), an mRNA can be targeted by different miRNAs, not to mention that a single miRNA might have various binding sites in an mRNA sequence. Therefore, it is quite involved to investigate miRNAs experimentally. Thus, machine learning (ML) is frequently used to overcome such challenges. The key parts of a ML analysis largely depend on the quality of input data and the capacity of the features describing the data. Previously, more than 1000 features were suggested for miRNAs. Here, it is shown that using 36 features representing the RNA secondary structure and its dynamic 3D graphical representation provides up to 98% accuracy values. In this study, a new approach for ML-based miRNA prediction is proposed. Thousands of models are generated through classification of known human miRNAs and pseudohairpins with 3 classifiers: decision tree, naive Bayes, and random forest. Although the method is based on human data, the best model was able to correctly assign 96% of nonhuman hairpins from MirGeneDB, suggesting that this approach might be useful for the analysis of miRNAs from other species.Article Citation - Scopus: 5Hyperplastic and Tubular Polyp Classification Using Machine Learning and Feature Selection(Elsevier B.V., 2024) Doǧan, Refika Sultan; Akay, Ebru; Doǧan, Serkan; Yilmaz, BulentPurpose: The aim of this study is to develop an effective approach for differentiating between hyperplastic and tubular adenoma colon polyps, which is one of the most difficult tasks in colonoscopy procedures. The main research challenge is how to improve the classification of these polyp subtypes applying various focusing levels on the polyp images, data preprocessing approaches, and classification algorithms. Methods: This study employed 202 colonoscopy videos from a total of 201 patients, focusing on 59 videos containing hyperplastic and tubular adenoma polyps. Manually extract key frames and several feature extraction and classification techniques were applied. The influence of different datasets with various focuses as well as data preprocessing steps on the performance of classification was examined, and AUC values were calculated using ten classifiers. Results: The study discovered that the optimal dataset, data preprocessing method, and classification algorithm all had significant effects on classification results. The Random Forest model with the Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) feature selection approach, for example, consistently outperformed other models and achieved the highest AUC value of 0.9067. In terms of accuracy, F1 score, recall, and AUC, the suggested model outperformed a gastroenterologist, nevertheless precision remained slightly lower. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the importance of dataset selection, data preprocessing, and feature selection in enhancing the classification of difficult colon polyp subtypes. The suggested model offers a promising model for the clinical differentiation of hyperplastic and tubular adenoma polyps, potentially improving diagnostic accuracy in gastroenterology. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
