Machine learning classification by fitting amplicon sequences to existing OTUs

C. R. Armour, K. L. Sovacool, W. L. Close, B. D. Topcuoglu, J. Wiens, P. D. Schloss

The paper evaluates OptiFit, a method to fit new sequences to existing OTUs, finding it performs as well or better than de novo and database-reference-based clustering in classifying colonic screen relevant neoplasia.

A Goldilocks Principle for the Gut Microbiome: Taxonomic Resolution Matters for Microbiome-Based Classification of Colorectal Cancer

C. R. Armour, B. D. Topcuoglu, A. Garretto, P. D. Schloss

This study finds that optimal taxonomic resolution for microbiome-based colorectal cancer classification is at the family level, with performance decreasing at finer resolutions like ASVs.

Interspecies comparative metagenomics reveals correlated gut microbiome functional capacities among vertebrates

C. A. Gaulke, C. R. Armour, I. R. Humphreys, L. M. Beaver, L. Carbone, E. Ho, R. L. Tanguay, Y. Jiang, T. J. Sharpton

This study compares gut metagenomes across 10 vertebrate species to identify conserved and variable microbial functional pathways, showing general similarity to human gut microbiomes but with notable differences in disease-related pathways.
