Prediction of genetic biomarkers from RNA-SEQ datasets of prostate cancer

A type of cancer known as prostate cancer (PC) manifests itself in the tissues of a man’s prostate gland. A walnut-sized gland between the penis and the bladder is prostate cancer! Prostate cancer symptoms include difficulty urinating, a decrease in the force of the urine stream, blood in the urine and semen, bone discomfort, weight loss, and erectile dysfunction. Four factors are associated with Prostate cancer: advanced age, race, family history, and obesity. Men aged 50 and older frequently develop prostate cancer. This project used different machine learning models to analyze the data gathered. The machine learning that was considered were: Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors, Gradient Boosting, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Support Vector Machines, and Naïve Bayes Classification. Prostate cancer, as well as ovarian and breast cancer, have all been related to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. When a man has this mutation and is 65 or older, the patient is in danger of progressing to a more severe stage of the illness. As PC and breast cancer are connected to BRCA1 and BRCA2, patients with a family history of PC and breast cancer have a 60% likelihood of acquiring PC. More than 200 genes were examined, and HOXB13 G84E was shown to be a high-risk gene in PC patients. Doctors look for biomarkers to assist in detecting various malignancies and disorders.

Abstract

A type of cancer known as prostate cancer (PC) manifests itself in the tissues of a man’s prostate gland. A walnut-sized gland between the penis and the bladder is prostate cancer! Prostate cancer symptoms include difficulty urinating, a decrease in the force of the urine stream, blood in the urine and semen, bone discomfort, weight loss, and erectile dysfunction. Four factors are associated with Prostate cancer: advanced age, race, family history, and obesity. Men aged 50 and older frequently develop prostate cancer. This project used different machine learning models to analyze the data gathered. The machine learning that was considered were: Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors, Gradient Boosting, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Support Vector Machines, and Naïve Bayes Classification. Prostate cancer, as well as ovarian and breast cancer, have all been related to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. When a man has this mutation and is 65 or older, the patient is in danger of progressing to a more severe stage of the illness. As PC and breast cancer are connected to BRCA1 and BRCA2, patients with a family history of PC and breast cancer have a 60% likelihood of acquiring PC. More than 200 genes were examined, and HOXB13 G84E was shown to be a high-risk gene in PC patients. Doctors look for biomarkers to assist in detecting various malignancies and disorders.
