Abstract
It is critical yet remains to be challenging to make right disease diagnosis based on complex clinical characteristic and heterogeneous genetic background. Recently, Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO)-based phenotype similarity has been widely used to aid disease diagnosis. However, the existing measurements are revised based on the Gene Ontology-based term similarity models, which are not optimized for human phenotype ontologies. We propose a new similarity measure called PhenoSim. Our model includes a noise reduction component to model the noisy patient phenotype data, and a path-constrained Information Content-based method for measuring phenotype semantics similarity. Evaluation tests showed that PhenoSim could improve the performance of HPO-based phenotype similarity measurement.
