Utilizing a clinical-phenomics causal discovery framework to generate causal discovery predictions

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods that analyze gene perturbation machine learning embeddings and clinical observation data sets utilizing machine learning, explainability models, and causal discovery models to generate causal predictions between one or more genes and clinical outcomes. Indeed, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems identify gene perturbation embeddings generated from cells exposed to perturbations. For instance, the disclosed systems select a cluster of genes from a plurality of genes by applying a clustering model to the gene perturbation embeddings. In some instances, the disclosed systems select gene targets from the cluster of genes by using a machine learning classification model trained on a plurality of features of the clinical observation data set. Moreover, in some instances, the disclosed systems generate the causal prediction from the gene targets and the clinical observation data set utilizing a causal discovery model.
