Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is the latest high throughput technology to revolutionize genomic research. NGS generates massive genomic datasets that play a key role in the big data phenomenon that surrounds us today. To extract signals from high-dimensional NGS data and make valid statistical inferences and predictions, novel data analytic and statistical techniques are needed. This book contains 20 chapters written by prominent statisticians working with NGS data. The topics range from basic preprocessing and analysis with NGS data to more complex genomic applications such as copy number variation and isoform expression detection. Research statisticians who want to learn about this growing and exciting area will find this book useful. In addition, many chapters from this book could be included in graduate-level classes in statistical bioinformatics for training future biostatisticians who will be expected to deal with genomic data in basic biomedical research, genomic clinical trials and personalized medicine.

In recent years, technological breakthroughs have greatly enhanced our ability to understand the complex world of molecular biology. Rapid developments in genomic profiling techniques, such as high-throughput sequencing, have brought new opportunities and challenges to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics. Furthermore, by combining genomic profiling techniques with other experimental techniques, many powerful approaches (e.g., RNA-Seq, Chips-Seq, single-cell assays, and Hi-C) have been developed in order to help explore complex biological systems. As a result of the increasing availability of genomic datasets, in terms of both volume and variety, the analysis of such data has become a critical challenge as well as a topic of great interest. Therefore, statistical methods that address the problems associated with these newly developed techniques are in high demand. This book includes a number of studies that highlight the state-of-the-art statistical methods for the analysis of genomic data and explore future directions for improvement.

With the development of next-generation sequencing technologies, we can detect numerous genetic variants associated with many diseases or complex traits over the past decades. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been one of the most effective methods to identify those variants. It discovers disease-associated variants by comparing the genetic information between controls and cases. This approach is simple and effective and has been used by many studies. Before performing GWAS, we need to detect the genetic variants of the sample population. A subset of these variants, however, may have poor sequencing quality due to limitations in NGS or variant callers. In genetic studies that analyze a large number of sequenced individuals, it is critical to detect and remove those variants with poor quality as they may cause spurious findings. Here, I will present ForestQC, an efficient statistical tool for performing quality control on variants identified from NGS data by combining a traditional filtering approach and a machine learning approach, which outperforms widely used methods by considerably improving the quality of variants to be included in the analysis. Once this association is identified, the next step is to understand the genetic mechanism of rare variants on how the variants influence diseases, especially whether or how they regulate gene expression as they may affect diseases through gene regulation. However, it is challenging to identify the regulatory effects of rare variants because it often requires large sample sizes and the existing statistical approaches are not optimized for it. To improve statistical power, I will introduce a new approach, LRT-q, based on a likelihood ratio test that combines effects of multiple rare variants in a nonlinear manner and has higher power than previous approaches. I apply LRT-q to the GTEx dataset and find many novel biological insights. Recent studies have shown that omics data can be used for automatic disease diagnosis with machine learning algorithms. I will introduce an accurate and automated machine learning pipeline for the diagnosis of atopic dermatitis (AD) based on transcriptome and microbiota data. I will demonstrate that this classifier can accurately differentiate subjects with AD and healthy individuals. It also identifies a set of genes and microorganisms that are predictive for AD. I will show that they are directly or indirectly associated with AD.

The next generation sequencing technology, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), has an increasing popularity over traditional microarrays in transcriptome analyses. Statistical methods used for gene expression analyses with these two technologies are di erent because the array-based technology measures intensities using continuous distributions, whereas RNA-seq provides absolute quantification of gene expression using counts of reads. There is a need for reliable statistical methods to exploit the information from the rapidly evolving sequencing technologies and limited work has been done on expression analysis of time-course RNA-seq data. Functional clustering is an important method for examining gene expression patterns and thus discovering co-expressed genes to better understand the biological systems. Clusteringbased approaches to analyze repeated digital gene expression measures are in demand. In this dissertation, we propose a model-based clustering method for identifying gene expression patterns in time-course RNA-seq data. Our approach employs a longitudinal negative binomial mixture model to postulate the over-dispersed time-course gene count data. The e ectiveness of the proposed clustering method is assessed using simulated data and is illustrated by real data from time-course genomic experiments. Due to the complexity and size of genomic data, the choice of good starting values is an important issue to the proposed clustering algorithm. There is a need for a reliable initialization strategy for cluster-wise regression specifically for time-course discrete count data. We modify existing common initialization procedures to suit our model-based clustering algorithm and the procedures are evaluated through a simulation study on artificial datasets and are applied to real genomic examples to identify the optimal initialization method. Another common issue in gene expression analysis is the presence of missing values in the datasets. Various treatments to missing values in genomic datasets have been developed but limited work has been done on RNA-seq data. In the current work, we examine the performance of various imputation methods and their impact on the clustering of time-course RNA-seq data. We develop a cluster-based imputation method which is specifically suitable for dealing with missing values in RNA-seq datasets. Simulation studies are provided to assess the performance of the proposed imputation approach.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies reveal unprecedented insights about genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. However, existing quantification and statistical methods are not well prepared for the coming deluge of NGS data. In this dissertation, we propose to develop powerful new statistical methods in three aspects. First, we propose a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) in Bayesian framework to quantify methylation levels at base-pair resolution by NGS. Second, in the context of exome-based studies, we develop a general simulation framework that distributes total genetic effects hierarchically into pathways, genes, and individual variants, allowing the extensive evaluation of existing pathway-based methods. Finally, we develop a new hypothesis testing method for group selection in penalized regression. The proposed method naturally applies to gene or pathway level association analysis for genome-wide data. The results of this dissertation will facilitate future genomic studies.
