MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES FOR GENE EXPRESSION ANALYSIS

摘要

Techniques for determining one or more characteristics of a biological sample using rankings of gene expression levels in expression data obtained using one or more sequencing platforms is described. The techniques may include obtaining expression data for a biological sample of a subject. The techniques further include ranking genes in a set of genes based on their expression levels in the expression data to obtain a gene ranking and determining using the gene ranking and a statistical model, one or more characteristics of the biological sample.
