The invention discloses a method for predicting the harmfulness of synonymous
mutation based on multilevel biological characteristics. The method comprises the following steps: 1, collecting and preprocessing a synonymous
mutation sample; 2, carrying out
DNA,
RNA and
protein level feature
annotation on the obtained synonymous
mutation sample by using a biological calculation tool, and carrying out pretreatment; 3, performing dimension reduction on the high-dimensional biological characteristic data by using a causal characteristic
selection algorithm to obtain a plurality of causal characteristic subsets; 4, splicing an optimal
feature set and performing model construction and training by using a
machine learning classifier; and 5, predicting an external
test set sample by using the trained optimal model to obtain a synonymous mutation harmfulness
prediction score. According to the method, the features having the causal relationship with the target variable can be screened out from the multi-level high-dimensional biological features, and then the causal features of the three biological levels are fused for prediction, so that the synonymous mutation harmfulness prediction precision is improved.
