🧬 Biological Data Analysis App using AI

A comprehensive Python application for analyzing large-scale gene expression data and extracting meaningful biological insights using Machine Learning.

📋 Overview

This application provides a complete pipeline for biological data analysis including:

• Data Preprocessing: Cleaning, normalization, and preparation
• Exploratory Data Analysis: Visualization and statistical analysis
• Unsupervised Learning: Clustering analysis to discover patterns
• Supervised Learning: Classification models for condition prediction
• Comprehensive Reporting: Automated insights and visualizations

🧬 Dataset

The app works with gene expression datasets where:

• Rows = Samples (e.g., patients, cell lines)
• Columns = Gene expressions (e.g., GENE_0001, GENE_0002, ...)
• Target = Condition column (e.g., 'Healthy', 'Cancer_TypeA', 'Cancer_TypeB')

If no dataset is provided, the app automatically generates a realistic sample dataset with 500 samples and 1000 genes.

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• pip package manager

Installation

1. Clone or download the project

   cd bioai-project

2. Install dependencies

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Prepare your data (Optional)

   • Place your gene expression CSV file in the data/ folder
   • Ensure it has a 'Condition' column for the target variable
   • Or let the app generate sample data automatically

4. Run the analysis

   python main.py

🔧 Advanced Features

Large Dataset Support (Optional)

For very large datasets, uncomment the Dask imports and modify data loading:

import dask.dataframe as dd

# For large datasets
def load_large_data(self):
    self.raw_data = dd.read_csv(self.data_path)
    return self.raw_data.compute()  # Convert to pandas when needed

Command Line Interface

Extend the application with argument parsing:

import argparse

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('--data', default='data/gene_expression_data.csv')
parser.add_argument('--model', choices=['rf', 'svm'], default='rf')
args = parser.parse_args()

🛠️ Customization

Adding New Algorithms

# In the train_model method
from sklearn.svm import SVC

if model_type == 'svm':
    self.classifier = SVC(kernel='rbf', random_state=42)

Custom Visualizations

# Add custom plots in run_eda method
def plot_custom_analysis(self):
    # Your custom visualization code
    plt.savefig(f'{self.output_dir}/custom_plot.png')

🔍 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Memory Issues with Large Datasets

   • Use Dask for out-of-core processing
   • Reduce number of features with feature selection
   • Process data in chunks

2. Missing Dependencies

   pip install --upgrade pip
   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Data Format Issues

   • Ensure CSV has proper headers
   • Check for correct 'Condition' column name
   • Verify numeric data types for gene expressions
