PhenoClustR

lifecycle-experimental

Unsupervised machine learning approaches for patient stratification/clustering by phenotype.

Example Clusters

Installation

Although this is largely an exploratory project rather than an actual package, one may install the development version of PhenoClustR from this repository:

devtools::install_github("Ryan-Laird/PhenoClustR")

Introduction

This is an experimental package I’ve developed in an attempt to better stratify a cohort of patients with undifferentiated autoinflammatory disease. It leans heavily on the Human Phenotype Ontology, ontologyX R package suite, and HPO2Vec (and therefore Node2Vec).

Please see bibliography for related research.

The initial findings of this work are to be presented during NIH Postbac poster day, 2020. My poster is available in this repository and was generated with the wonderful R package posterdown.

Coming Soon

For the most part this will remain an exploratory project, however I do plan on including additional functionality and resources.

To do’s include:

  • Create synthetic autoinflammatory phenotype data for reproducible examples

  • Provide script for my initial analysis (poster)

  • Provide script for generating an enriched HPO node embedding
