What is it about?

We have applied "Tensor decomposition based unsupervised feature extraction" to protein-protein interaction represented as matrix/tensor. Using identified genes, we proposed gene-centric for drug repositioning that do not specify any genes and drugs

Why is it important?

Usually, protein protein interaction is represented as networks and is analyzed using network based technique. However, we represent protein-protein interaction as matrix/tensor, to which tensor decomposition is applied. This approach enables us to identify gene sets, which cannot be identified by network based analyses.

Perspectives

In the previous study, I have integrated gene expression and PPI. I expected that only PPI is not useful for drug repositioning, but it was. So I decided to investigate the efficiency of the usage of PPI without any additional information. Then, I found that only PPI is useful for the drug repositioning.
