An Analytical Study of Covid-19 Dataset using Graph-Based Clustering Algorithms
This work addresses the need for better understanding COVID-19 mechanisms for medical researchers, but it is incremental as it uses existing methods on new data.
The study applied three graph-based clustering algorithms to analyze protein-protein interaction networks from 92 genes in a COVID-19 dataset, aiming to provide insights for drug development and disease understanding.
Corona VIrus Disease abbreviated as COVID-19 is a novel virus which is initially identified in Wuhan of China in December of 2019 and now this deadly disease has spread all over the world. According to World Health Organization (WHO), a total of 3,124,905 people died from 2019 to 2021, April. In this case, many methods, AI base techniques, and machine learning algorithms have been researched and are being used to save people from this pandemic. The SARS-CoV and the 2019-nCoV, SARS-CoV-2 virus invade our bodies, causing some differences in the structure of cell proteins. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) is an essential process in our cells and plays a very important role in the development of medicines and gives ideas about the disease. In this study, we performed clustering on PPI networks generated from 92 genes of the Covi-19 dataset. We have used three graph-based clustering algorithms to give intuition to the analysis of clusters.
