    MACHINE LEARNING-BASED MODEL FOR IDENTIFICATION OF SYNDROMIC AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
    (Springer Link, 2019) Pream Sudha, V; Vijaya, M S
    Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by a set of developmental disorders with a strong genetic origin. The genetic cause of ASD is difficult to track, as it includes a wide range of developmental disorders, a spectrum of symptoms and varied levels of disability. Mutations are key molecular players in the cause of ASD, and it is essential to develop effective therapeutic strategies that target these mutations. The development of computational tools to identify ASD originated by genetic mutations is vital to aid the development of disease-specific targeted therapies. This chapter employs supervised machine learning techniques to construct a model to identify syndromic ASD by classifying mutations that underlie these phenotypes, and supervised learning algorithms, namely support vector machines, decision trees and multilayer perceptron, are used to explore the results. It has been observed that the decision tree classifier performs better compared to other learning algorithms, with an accuracy of 94%. This model will provide accurate predictions in new cases with similar genetic background and enable the pathogenesis of ASD.

    DECISION TREE BASED MODEL FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OF PATHOGENIC GENE SEQUENCES CAUSING ASD
    (Springer Link, 2018-08-21) Pream Sudha, V; Vijaya, M S
    Pathogenic gene identification is an important research problem in biomedical domain. The genetic cause of ASD, which is a multifaceted developmental disability is hard to research. Hence, there is a critical need for inventive approaches to further portray the genetic basis of ASD which will enable better filtering and specific therapies. This paper adopts machine learning techniques to classify gene sequences which are the significant drivers of syndromic and asyndromic ASD. The synthetic dataset with 150 sequences of six different categories of genes were prepared and coding measures of gene sequences were taken as attributes for gene identification. Pattern learning algorithms like support vector machine, decision tree and Multiplayer perceptron were used to train the model. The model was evaluated using 10 fold cross validation and the results are reported. The study reveals that Decision trees outperform other classifiers with an accuracy of 97.33%
