A Non-Negative Matrix Tri-Factorization based Method for Predicting Antitumor Drug Sensitivity
Large annotated cell line collections have been proven to enable the prediction of drug response in the preclinical setting. We present an enhancement of Non-Negative Matrix Tri-Factorization method, which allows the integration of different data types for the prediction of missing associations. To test our method we retrieved a dataset from CCLE, containing the connections among cell lines and drugs by means of their IC50 values. We performed two different kind of experiments: a) prediction of missing values in the matrix, b) prediction of the complete drug profile of a new cell line, demonstrating the validity of the method in both scenarios.
