Fairness-Aware Gaussian Graphical Regression Models with Application to Brain Co-Expression QTL Studies
公平性感知的高斯图回归及脑共表达QTL研究应用
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain cancer with largely ineffective treatment. It is imperative to explore more effective therapies, such as gene-based treatments. For co-expression QTL studies of GBM, we develop fairness-aware Gaussian graphical regression models (Fair RegGGMs), which can determine how genetic variants modulate subject-level gene networks, and recover both population-level and subject-level gene graphs, while ensuring that the…
