AbstractThe systematic processing of unstructured communication data as well as the milestone of pattern recognition in order to determine communication groups in negotiations bears many challenges in Machine Learning. In particular, the so-called curse of dimensionality makes the pattern recognition process demanding and requires further research in the negotiation environment. In this paper, various selected renowned clustering approaches are evaluated with regard to their pattern recognition potential based on high-dimensional negotiation communication data. A research approach is presented to evaluate the application potential of selected methods via a holistic framework including three main evaluation milestones: the determination of optimal number of clusters, the main clustering application, and the performance evaluation. Hence, quantified Term Document Matrices are initially pre-processed and afterwards used as underlying databases to investigate the pattern recognition potential of clustering techniques by considering the information regarding the optimal number of clusters and by measuring the respective internal as well as external performances. The overall research results show that certain cluster separations are recommended by internal and external performance measures by means of a holistic evaluation approach, whereas three of the clustering separations are eliminated based on the evaluation results.

Background: RNA methylome has been discovered as an important layer of gene regulation and can be profiled directly with count-based measurements from high-throughput sequencing data. Although the detailed regulatory circuit of the epitranscriptome remains uncharted, clustering effect in methylation status among different RNA methylation sites can be identified from transcriptome-wide RNA methylation profiles and may reflect the epitranscriptomic regulation. Count-based RNA methylation sequencing data has unique features, such as low reads coverage, which calls for novel clustering approaches. <P><P> Objective: Besides the low reads coverage, it is also necessary to keep the integer property to approach clustering analysis of count-based RNA methylation sequencing data. <P><P> Method: We proposed a nonparametric generative model together with its Gibbs sampling solution for clustering analysis. The proposed approach implements a beta-binomial mixture model to capture the clustering effect in methylation level with the original count-based measurements rather than an estimated continuous methylation level. Besides, it adopts a nonparametric Dirichlet process to automatically determine an optimal number of clusters so as to avoid the common model selection problem in clustering analysis. <P><P> Results: When tested on the simulated system, the method demonstrated improved clustering performance over hierarchical clustering, K-means, MClust, NMF and EMclust. It also revealed on real dataset two novel RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) co-methylation patterns that may be induced directly by METTL14 and WTAP, which are two known regulatory components of the RNA m6A methyltransferase complex. <P><P> Conclusion: Our proposed DPBBM method not only properly handles the count-based measurements of RNA methylation data from sites of very low reads coverage, but also learns an optimal number of clusters adaptively from the data analyzed. <P><P> Availability: The source code and documents of DPBBM R package are freely available through the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN): https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/DPBBM/.
