Abstract:
|
In recent years, two-way clustering or bi-clustering algorithms are in particular interest for DNA microarray analysis. A bi-cluster refers to a subset of genes and a corresponding subset of experimental conditions of a microarray dataset. In this work, a Bayesian bi-clustering model is proposed. Similar to the plaid model of Lazzeroni and Owen in 2002, the Bayesian plaid model uses an ANOVA model to represent a bi-cluster and allows an unknown number of bi-clusters. Gibbs sampling algorithm is used to search for multiple bi-clusters simultaneously. We applied the model to both simulated and real datasets including leukemia and yeast microarray data and identified bi-clusters with significant biological meanings. We also compared it with a few published bi-clustering algorithms based on their operation characteristics such as specificities, sensitivities and overlapping rates.
