By leveraging six SA models, we examine their predictive capabilities, measured through the <i>Concordance Index</i> (C-index) metric. Beyond evaluating model performance, we analyze feature importance using permutation and SHAP methods, highlighting key clinical factors such as treatment history, disease stage, and prior disease progression or relapse as critical predictors of survival. The findings suggest that while all models performed well based on the C-index, a detailed examination revealed variations in how each model processed data. Specifically, the Coxnet and Random Survival Forest models exhibited a more thorough use of clinical variables, whereas the gradient boosting models appeared to rely on a narrower range of features, potentially limiting their ability to differentiate between patients with comparable profiles. Risk predictions categorized patients into low, moderate, and high-risk levels. For lower-risk patients, the procedure showed positive outcomes, while higher-risk individuals were predicted to have limited survival benefits, recommending alternative treatments.

Here, we propose a per-protein utility metric, pp_MCC, able to show a drop in the performance in both random and unseen-protein splits scenarios. We tested ML models based on sequence embeddings. The pp_MCC metric evidences a reduced performance even in a random split, reaching levels similar to those shown by the raw MCC metric computed over an unseen protein split, and drops even further when the pp_MCC is used in an unseen protein split scenario. Thus, the metric is able to give a more realistic performance estimation while allowing to use random splits, which could be interesting for more protein-centric studies. Given the low adjusted performance obtained, there seems to be room for improvement when using only primary sequence information, suggesting the need of inclusion of complementary protein data, accompanied with the use of the pp_MCC metric.</p>","PeriodicalId":53625,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143754930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Modern computational systems like LINKAGE and PED, while powerful for genetic analysis, lack human readability and are challenging to apply in fields where unstructured, narrative data is common, such as sociology or psychiatry. This paper aims to bridge this gap by enhancing Fcodes, a flexible and intuitive algorithm for encoding kinship relationships that is suited for both manual and computational use. Building on our previous work, we present improvements to the Fcodes core algorithm and command-line interface (CLI), as well as the development of F-Tree, a new graphical user interface (GUI) to streamline the encoding process. Additionally, we introduce a method for estimating the coefficient of inbreeding using Fcodes and explore the application of artificial intelligence, namely large language models (LLMs), to automatically infer family relationships from narrative text.
