  • Continuous Chromatin State Feature Annotation of the Human Epigenome
    bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/473017; this version posted November 18, 2018. The copyright holder for this preprint (which was not certified by peer review) is the author/funder, who has granted bioRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity. It is made available under aCC-BY 4.0 International license. Continuous chromatin state feature annotation of the human epigenome Bowen Chen, Neda Shokraneh Kenari, Maxwell W Libbrecht∗ School of Computing Science, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby BC, Canada Abstract Semi-automated genome annotation (SAGA) methods are widely used to understand genome activity and gene regulation. These methods take as input a set of sequencing-based assays of epigenomic activity (such as ChIP-seq measurements of histone modification and transcription factor binding), and output an annotation of the genome that assigns a chromatin state label to each genomic position. Existing SAGA methods have several limitations caused by the discrete annotation framework: such annotations cannot easily represent varying strengths of genomic elements, and they cannot easily represent combinatorial elements that simultaneously exhibit multiple types of activity. To remedy these limitations, we propose an annotation strategy that instead outputs a vector of chromatin state features at each position rather than a single discrete label. Continuous modeling is common in other fields, such as in topic modeling of text documents. We propose a method, epigenome-ssm, that uses a Kalman filter state space model to efficiently annotate the genome with chromatin state features. We show that chromatin state features from epigenome-ssm are more useful for several downstream applications than both continuous and discrete alternatives, including their ability to identify expressed genes and enhancers.

Abstract Background: Accurate evaluation of the quality of genomic or proteomic data and computational methods is vital to our ability to use them for formulating novel biological hypotheses and directing further experiments. There is currently no standard approach to evaluation in functional genomics. Our analysis of existing approaches shows that they are inconsistent and contain substantial functional biases that render the resulting evaluations misleading both quantitatively and qualitatively. These problems make it essentially impossible to compare computational methods or large-scale experimental datasets and also result in conclusions that generalize poorly in most biological applications.
