The Budgeted Biomarker Discovery Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present the budgeted biomarker discovery problem as an alternative to the association studies traditionally used to identify biomarkers. We present several strong arguments to show why adopting this new problem will help solve issues in reproducibilty and understanding of association studies. Additionaly, we present several algorithms for this problem and show their performance on real metabolomic data and on syn-

Proteomics Applications in Health: Biomarker and Drug Discovery and Food Industry
Advancing in genome sequencing has greatly propelled the understanding of the living world, however, it is insufficient for full description of a biological system. Focusing on, proteomics has emerged as another large-scale platform for improving the understanding of biology. Proteomic experiments can be used for different aspects of clinical and health sciences such as food technology, biomark...

متن کاملOptions Discovery with Budgeted Reinforcement Learning
We consider the problem of learning hierarchical policies for Reinforcement Learning able to discover options, an option corresponding to a sub-policy over a set of primitive actions. Different models have been proposed during the last decade that usually rely on a predefined set of options. We specifically address the problem of automatically discovering options in decision processes. We descr...
متن کاملRobust combinatorial optimization with variable budgeted uncertainty
Abstract: We introduce a new model for robust combinatorial optimization where the uncertain parameters belong to the image of multifunctions of the problem variables. In particular, we study the variable budgeted uncertainty, an extension of the budgeted uncertainty introduced by Bertsimas and Sim. Variable budgeted uncertainty can provide the same probabilistic guarantee as the budgeted uncer...
متن کاملPharmaceutical Advances and Proteomics Researches
Proteomics enables understanding the composition, structure, function and interactions of the entire protein complement of a cell, a tissue, or an organism under exactly defined conditions. Some factors such as stress or drug effects will change the protein pattern and cause the present or absence of a protein or gradual variation in abundances. Changes in the proteome provide a snapshot of the...
