Abstract
The analysis of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is crucial to the understanding of cellular processes. In recent years, a variety of computational methods have been developed to supplement the interactions that have been detected experimentally. The article’s main objective is to present a novel classification framework for predicting PPIs combining the advantages of two algorithmic methods’ categories. State-of-the-art adaptive filtering techniques were combined with the most contemporary heuristic methods which are based in the natural selection process. The authors’ goal is to find a simple mathematical equation that governs the best classifier enabling the extraction of biological knowledge. The proposed methodology assigns a confidence score to each protein pair and as a result a weighted PPI network is constructed. All possible combinations of the selected adaptive filtering and heuristic techniques were used and comparisons were made to explore the classifiers with the highest performance and interpretability.
