Abstract: Disease subtyping is accomplished by a computer-implemented algorithm that manipulates a first genetic dataset to construct a set of first connectivity matrices. To this set of matrices Gaussian noise is introduced to generate a perturbed dataset. The computer-implemented algorithm assesses which of the set of first connectivity matrices was least affected by introduction of noise and that matric is used to define the optimal clustering. Once the optimal clustering is determined, computer-implemented supervised classification is performed to determine, for a particular patient, with which disease subtype cluster that person's genetic data most closely aligns. Armed with this knowledge, the treatment regimen is specified with much higher likelihood of success.

Abstract: Methods and devices for integrating a plurality of data types are provided. The methods include obtaining, via a processor, a plurality of datasets of a given type including measurements of one or more quantitative variables related to a phenotype comparison, and a plurality of datasets of a different type including measurements of one or more quantitative variables related to the same phenotype comparison; calculating, via the processor, effect sizes of the variables of the first type, effect sizes of the variables of the second type, and global p-values for the first and second data types; and combining, via the processor, the effect sizes and/or the global p-values to identify the variables of either type that are relevant in the given phenotype comparison.
