    GATED RECURRENT NEURAL NETWORK FOR AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER GENE PREDICTION
    (Research Trend , International Journal on Emerging Technologies, 2020) Pream Sudha V; Vijaya M.S
    Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is the fastest-growing complex disorder and the genetic ground of this comprehensive developmental disability is very difficult to research. Autism diagnosis for an average child is not done till the age of four, though it can be given at the age of 18 months to two years. Hence a computational model that enables the early diagnosis and personalized treatment is the need of the hour. In this research work, a deep learning based approach is proposed for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) gene prediction. There are various contributors for Autism including genes, mutations, chromosomal settings influence of the environment, prenatal influences, family factors and problems during birth. Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) are implemented to develop a model that predicts ASD genes, mutations and gene susceptibility. GRUs with their internal memory capability are valuable to store and filter information using the update and reset gates. Also GRU offers a powerful tool to handle sequence data. The model is trained using three simulated datasets with features representing genes, mutations and gene susceptibility to ASD. Besides, the proposed approach is compared to original RNN and Long Short Term Memory Units (LSTM) for ASD prediction. The experimental results confirm that the proposed approach is promising with 82.5% accuracy and hence GRU RNN is found to be effective for ASD gene prediction

    PREDICTION OF GENE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER USING DEEP ARCHITECTURES
    (International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research, 2020) Pream Sudha V; Vijaya M.S
    A genetic predisposition or susceptibility to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is an increased likelihood of developing it based on the genetic makeup of a person. The multiple variants found in each gene have their own probability of associated risk and so the major problem lies in the systematic evaluation of their functional significance to ASD. Hence it is essential to develop methods for quantitative evaluation of ASD candidate genes with co-occurring mutations which will provide a clear understanding of their relevance to ASD. This research work deals with the development of a discriminative model for prioritization of candidate genes considering mutations in them and to classify them based on their predisposition to the disorder. The model for gene susceptibility prediction is built by integrating the combined potential of substantiation for each ASD linked gene and the related mutations. In this research work gene susceptibility prediction is modelled as a pattern classification problem and deep learning techniques are employed to build the models. The performance evaluation of these models proves that Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) based gene susceptibility prediction model has shown better performance.
