RNA单分子检测信号的碱基特征识别方法研究

RNA single molecule nanopore detection technology has been considered as one the novelist and burgeoning detection technology in the fields of genomics. However, on account of the limitation of sensitivity and accuracy caused by existing equipment and laboratory techniques, the current variation among the basic groups of RNA is still minute and the noise is still relative high, which leads the high identification error of RNA bases and bases modifications. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a machine learning based identification method in order to enhance the performance of nanopore detection in terms of detection accuracy...Hence, in this project, we aim to solve the problem of the low signal to noise ratio of RNA single molecule nanopore detection technology and develop an novel signal-noise separation method which based on time-frequency domain transformation and wavelet analysis. Then, focusing on the mapping problem caused by large-scale, high dimension and non-linearity of nanopore genetic data, in this project, it is plan to develop an efficient nonlinear dimension reduction method based on t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE). Thirdly, in order to recognize and classify the bases and bases modifications under the situations of class-imbalance in terms of features of gene bases, it is planed to propose an feature recognition and classification methods based on class-imbalance learning and long-short term memory (LSTM) network. Finally, all the proposed methods will be integrated into a multiplex cancer microRNAs detection framework, to enhance the performance of RNA single molecule nanopore detection in the filed of bases modifications identifications.

RNA单分子纳米孔检测技术作为目前基因组学中新兴的检测技术。但是，由于现有仪器和实验技术测量灵敏度的限制，碱基间电流变化微弱、噪声高使得现有碱基识别错误率较高，亟需利用机器学习手段提高纳米孔检测方法的准确率。.因此，本项目针对RNA单分子检测的低信噪比问题，拟研究基于时频域变换及小波分解的信噪分离方法；针对纳米孔检测信号大规模高维非线性问题，研究基于随机邻域嵌入的非线性映射降维方法；针对基因数据的特征数据量不平衡、碱基修饰特征无法有效识别的问题，研究基于长短期记忆网络和不平衡学习的特征识别方法，最终集成一套能够用于癌症microRNA分子碱基特征识别的机器学习综合策略，提高纳米孔检测的准确率。
