Latent-space embedding of expression data identifies gene signatures from sputum samples of asthmatic patients

Abstract Background The pathogenesis of asthma is a complex process involving multiple genes and pathways. Identifying biomarkers from asthma datasets, especially those that include heterogeneous subpopulations, is challenging. Potentially, autoencoders provide ideal frameworks for such tasks as the...
