Binding sites are concave surfaces on proteins that bind to small molecules called ligands. Types of molecules that bind to the protein determine its biological function. Meanwhile, the binding process between small molecules and the protein is also crucial to various biological functionalities. Therefore, identifying…

Viral species classification is crucial for understanding viral evolution, epidemiology, and developing effective diagnostics and treatments. Traditional methods often rely on sequence similarity, which can be challenging for rapidly evolving viruses. Pangenomes, offering a comprehensive representation of species’…

Brain responses related to working memory originate from distinct brain areas and oscillate at different frequencies. EEG signals with high temporal correlation can effectively capture these responses. Therefore, estimating the functional connectivity of EEG for working memory protocols in different frequency bands…

Protein fold classification reveals key structural information about proteins that is essential for understanding their function. While numerous approaches exist in the literature that classifies protein fold from sequence data using machine learning, there is hardly any approach that classifies protein fold from the…

We employ a computational framework that integrates mathematical programming and graph neural networks to elucidate functional phenotypic heterogeneity in disease by classifying entire pathways under various conditions of interest. Our approach combines two distinct, yet seamlessly integrated, modeling schemes. First…

The shape of neuronal morphologies plays a critical role in determining their dynamical properties and the functionality of the brain. With an abundance of neuronal morphology reconstructions, a robust definition of cell types is important to understand their role in brain functionality. However, an objective…

Graph representation learning is a family of related approaches that learn low-dimensional vector representations of nodes and other graph elements called embeddings. Embeddings approximate characteristics of the graph and can be used for a variety of machine-learning tasks such as novel edge prediction. For many…

Many problems in life sciences can be brought back to a comparison of graphs. Even though a multitude of such techniques exist, often, these assume prior knowledge about the partitioning or the number of clusters and fail to provide statistical significance of observed between-network heterogeneity. Addressing these…

The growing availability and complexity of omics data have driven the development of specialized algorithms for modeling molecular systems. Although graph-based learning methods effectively represent biological interactions, they often neglect the statistical information embedded in node and edge annotations. To…

In times like this, it is imperative to be cautious about the effects of drugs or vaccination doses on patients who are already suffering from other serious diseases. It’s not only the virus which can affect the body metabolisms, drugs to encounter the virus may also end up having unwanted negative effects. Therapeutic…

This study introduces a novel graph-informed modeling framework for improving the statistical analysis of gene expression data, particularly in the context of identifying differentially expressed gene pathways and gene expression-assisted disease classification in a high-dimensional data setting. By integrating gene…

Moonlighting proteins are those proteins that perform more than one distinct function in the body. They are pivotal in various metabolic pathways and disease mechanisms. Identifying moonlighting proteins remains a challenge in Computational Biology. In this work, we propose the first graph neural network based models…

A Wheeler graph represents a collection of strings in a way that is particularly easy to index and query. Such a graph is a practical choice for representing a graph-shaped pangenome, and it is the foundation for current graph-based pangenome indexes. However, there are no practical tools to visualize or to check…

This paper presents the treecompareR package for R, which provides tools for reproducible visualizations of data through the use of taxonomies. The package builds on developments from ggplot2 and ggtree to provide visualizations tailored for use with taxonomic classification data. Additionally, it provides tools that…
