    Abstract Cancer treatments always face challenging problems, particularly drug resistance due to tumor cell heterogeneity. The existing datasets include the relationship between gene expression and drug sensitivities; however, the majority are based on tissue-level studies. Study drugs at the single-cell level are perspective to overcome minimal residual disease caused by subclonal resistant cancer cells retained after initial curative therapy. Fortunately, machine learning techniques can help us understand how different types of cells respond to different cancer drugs from the perspective of single-cell gene expression. Good modeling using single-cell data and drug response information will not only improve machine learning for cell-drug outcome prediction but also facilitate the discovery of drugs for specific cancer subgroups and specific cancer treatments. In this paper, we review machine learning and deep learning approaches in drug research. By analyzing the application of these methods on cancer cell lines and single-cell data and comparing the technical gap between single-cell sequencing data analysis and single-cell drug sensitivity analysis, we hope to explore the trends and potential of drug research at the single-cell data level and provide more inspiration for drug research at the single-cell level. We anticipate that this review will stimulate the innovative use of machine learning methods to address new challenges in precision medicine more broadly.

    Abstract Pseudouridine is a type of abundant RNA modification that is seen in many different animals and is crucial for a variety of biological functions. Accurately identifying pseudouridine sites within the RNA sequence is vital for the subsequent study of various biological mechanisms of pseudouridine. However, the use of traditional experimental methods faces certain challenges. The development of fast and convenient computational methods is necessary to accurately identify pseudouridine sites from RNA sequence information. To address this, we introduce a novel pseudouridine site prediction model called PseU-KeMRF, which can identify pseudouridine sites in three species, H. sapiens, S. cerevisiae, and M. musculus. Through comprehensive analysis, we selected four RNA coding schemes, including binary feature, position-specific trinucleotide propensity based on single strand (PSTNPss), nucleotide chemical property (NCP) and pseudo k-tuple composition (PseKNC). Then the support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) method was used for feature selection and the feature subset was optimized. Finally, the best feature subsets are input into the kernel based on multinomial random forests (KeMRF) classifier for cross-validation and independent testing. As a new classification method, compared with the traditional random forest, KeMRF not only improves the node splitting process of decision tree construction based on multinomial distribution, but also combines the easy to interpret kernel method for prediction, which makes the classification performance better. Our results indicate superior predictive performance of PseU-KeMRF over other existing models. On the three species' training datasets, the testing accuracy of PseU-KeMRF was 0.66%, 3.66%, and 2.76% higher, respectively, than the best available methods. Moreover, PseU-KeMRF's accuracy on independent testing datasets was 15.15% and 11.0% higher, respectively, than the best available methods. The above results can prove that PseU-KeMRF is a highly competitive predictive model that can successfully identify pseudouridine sites in RNA sequences.

    Abstract Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) can regulate microRNA activity and are related to various diseases, such as cancer. Functional research on circRNAs is the focus of scientific research. Accurate identification of circRNAs is important for gaining insight into their functions. Although several circRNA prediction models have been developed, their prediction accuracy is still unsatisfactory. Therefore, providing a more accurate computational framework to predict circRNAs and analyse their looping characteristics is crucial for systematic annotation.
    Results: We developed a novel framework, CircDC, for classifying circRNAs from other lncRNAs. CircDC uses four different feature encoding schemes and adopts a multilayer convolutional neural network and bidirectional long short-term memory network to learn high-order feature representation and make circRNA predictions. The results demonstrate that the proposed CircDC model is more accurate than existing models. In addition, an interpretable analysis of the features affecting the model is performed, and the computational framework is applied to the extended application of circRNA identification.
    Conclusions: CircDC is suitable for the prediction of circRNA. The identification of circRNA helps to understand and delve into the related biological processes and functions. Feature importance analysis increases model interpretability and uncovers significant biological properties.

    Abstract Heterogeneous data, especially a mixture of numerical and categorical data, widely exist in bioinformatics. Most of works focus on defining new distance metrics rather than learning discriminative metrics for mixed data. Here, we create a new support vector heterogeneous metric learning framework for mixed data. A heterogeneous sample pair kernel is defined for mixed data and metric learning is then converted to a sample pair classification problem. The suggested approach lends itself well to effective resolution through conventional support vector machine solvers. Empirical assessments conducted on mixed data benchmarks and cancer datasets affirm the exceptional efficacy demonstrated by the proposed modeling technique.
