Are gene-by-environment interactions leveraged in multi-modality neural networks for breast cancer prediction?

no code implementations30 Jul 2024 Monica Isgut, Andrew Hornback, Yunan Luo, Asma Khimani, Neha Jain, May D. Wang

While our model did not demonstrate improved performance over the baseline, we discovered 248 (<1%) statistically significant gene-by-gene and gene-by-environment interactions out of the ~53. 6k possible feature pairs, the most contributory of which included rs6001930 (MKL1) and rs889312 (MAP3K1), with age and menopause being the most heavily interacting non-genetic risk factors.

Public Health Informatics: Proposing Causal Sequence of Death Using Neural Machine Translation

no code implementations22 Sep 2020 Yuanda Zhu, Ying Sha, Hang Wu, Mai Li, Ryan A. Hoffman, May D. Wang

The sequence of clinical codes on the death report is named as causal chain of death, coded in the tenth revision of International Statistical Classification of Diseases (ICD-10); in line with the ICD-9-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, the priority-ordered clinical conditions on the discharge record are coded in ICD-9.

Improve Model Generalization and Robustness to Dataset Bias with Bias-regularized Learning and Domain-guided Augmentation

no code implementations12 Oct 2019 Yundong Zhang, Hang Wu, Huiye Liu, Li Tong, May D. Wang

In this study, we investigated model robustness to dataset bias using three large-scale Chest X-ray datasets: first, we assessed the dataset bias using vanilla training baseline; second, we proposed a novel multi-source domain generalization model by (a) designing a new bias-regularized loss function; and (b) synthesizing new data for domain augmentation.
