Article Citation - Scopus: 2Prediction of Colorectal Cancer Based on Taxonomic Levels of Microorganisms and Discovery of Taxonomic Biomarkers Using the Grouping-Scoring (G-S-M) Approach(Elsevier Ltd, 2025-03) Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Temiz, Mustafa; Canakcimaksutoglu, Beyza; Yousef, MalikColorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer globally. The human gut microbiome plays an important role in the development of CRC and serves as a biomarker for early detection and treatment. This research effort focuses on the identification of potential taxonomic biomarkers of CRC using a grouping-based feature selection method. Additionally, this study investigates the effect of incorporating biological domain knowledge into the feature selection process while identifying CRC-associated microorganisms. Conventional feature selection techniques often fail to leverage existing biological knowledge during metagenomic data analysis. To address this gap, we propose taxonomy-based Grouping Scoring Modeling (G-S-M) method that integrates biological domain knowledge into feature grouping and selection. In this study, using metagenomic data related to CRC, classification is performed at three taxonomic levels (genus, family and order). The MetaPhlAn tool is employed to determine the relative abundance values of species in each sample. Comparative performance analyses involve six feature selection methods and four classification algorithms. When experimented on two CRC associated metagenomics datasets, the highest performance metric, yielding an AUC of 0.90, is observed at the genus taxonomic level. At this level, 7 out of top 10 groups (Parvimonas, Peptostreptococcus, Fusobacterium, Gemella, Streptococcus, Porphyromonas and Solobacterium) were commonly identified for both datasets. Moreover, the identified microorganisms at genus, family, and order levels are thoroughly discussed via refering to CRC-related metagenomic literature. This study not only contributes to our understanding of CRC development, but also highlights the applicability of taxonomy-based G-S-M method in tackling various diseases. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 37Citation - Scopus: 35Performance Prediction and Adaptation for Database Management System Workload Using Case-Based Reasoning Approach(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-07) Raza, Basit; Kumar, Yogan Jaya; Malik, Ahmad Kamran; Anjum, Adeel; Faheem, MuhammadWorkload management in a Database Management System (DBMS) has become difficult and challenging because of workload complexity and heterogeneity. During and after execution of the workload, it is hard to control and handle the workload. Before executing the workload, predicting its performance can help us in workload management. By knowing the type of workload in advance, we can predict its performance in an adaptive way that will enable us to monitor and control the workload, which ultimately leads to performance tuning of the DBMS. This study proposes a predictive and adaptive framework named as the Autonomic Workload Performance Prediction (AWPP) framework. The proposed AWPP framework predicts and adapts the DBMS workload performance on the basis of information available in advance before executing the workload. The Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) approach is used to solve the workload management problem. The proposed CBR approach is compared with other machine learning techniques. To validate the AWPP framework, a number of benchmark workloads of the Decision Support System (DSS) and the Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) are executed on the MySQL DBMS. For preparation of training and testing data, we executed more than 1000 TPC-H and TPC-C like workloads on a standard data set. The results show that our proposed AWPP framework through CBR modeling performs better in predicting and adapting the DBMS workload. DBMSs algorithms can be optimized for this prediction and workload can be controlled and managed in a better way. In the end, the results are validated by performing post-hoc tests.

Recent research highlights the pivotal role of the gut microbiota in CRC development and progression. Understanding the complex interplay between disease development and metagenomic data is essential for CRC diagnosis and treatment. Current computational models employ machine learning to identify metagenomic biomarkers associated with CRC, yet there is a need to improve their accuracy through a holistic biological knowledge perspective. This study aims to evaluate CRC-associated metagenomic data at species, enzymes, and pathway levels via conducting global and population-specific analyses. These analyses utilize relative abundance values from human gut microbiome sequencing data and robust classification models are built for disease prediction and biomarker identification. For global CRC prediction and biomarker identification, the features that are identified by SelectKBest (SKB), Information Gain (IG), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) methods are combined. Population-based analysis includes within-population, leave-one-dataset-out (LODO) and cross-population approaches. Four classification algorithms are employed for CRC classification. Random Forest achieved an AUC of 0.83 for species data, 0.78 for enzyme data and 0.76 for pathway data globally. On the global scale, potential taxonomic biomarkers include ruthenibacterium lactatiformanas; enzyme biomarkers include RNA 2′ 3′ cyclic 3′ phosphodiesterase; and pathway biomarkers include pyruvate fermentation to acetone pathway. This study underscores the potential of machine learning models trained on metagenomic data for improved disease prediction and biomarker discovery.

J.A rapid increase in heart disease has occurred in recent years, which might be the result of unhealthy food, mental stress, genetic issues, and a sedentary lifestyle. There are many advanced automated diagnosis systems for heart disease prediction proposed in recent studies, but most of them focus only on feature preprocessing, some focus on feature selection, and some only on improving the predictive accuracy. In this study, we focus on every aspect that may have an influence on the final performance of the system, i.e., to avoid overfitting and underfitting problems or to solve network configuration issues and optimization problems. We introduce an optimally configured and improved deep belief network named OCI-DBN to solve these problems and improve the performance of the system. We used the Ruzzo-Tompa approach to remove those features that are not contributing enough to improve system performance. To find an optimal network configuration, we proposed a stacked genetic algorithm that stacks two genetic algorithms to give an optimally configured DBN. An analysis of a RBM and DBN trained is performed to give an insight how the system works. Six metrics were used to evaluate the proposed method, including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1 score, and Matthew's correlation coefficient. The experimental results are compared with other state-of-the-art methods, and OCI-DBN shows a better performance. The validation results assure that the proposed method can provide reliable recommendations to heart disease patients by improving the accuracy of heart disease predictions by up to 94.61%. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
