Abstract: As more genomes are sequenced, there is an increasing need for automated gene prediction. One of the subproblems of the gene prediction, is the splice sites recognition. In eukaryotic genes, splice sites mark the boundaries between exons and introns. Even though, there are organisms which are well studied and their splice sites are known, there are plenty others which have not been studied well enough. In this work, we propose two transfer learning approaches for the splice site recognition problem, which take into account the knowledge we have from the well-studied organisms. We use different representations for the sequences such as the n-gram graph representation and a representation based on biological motifs. Furthermore, we study the case where more than one organisms are available for training and we incorporate information from the phylogenetic analysis between organisms. An extensive evaluation has taken place. The results indicate that the proposed representations and appro aches are very promising. (More)
