Dataset Card for Dataset Name

The nucleotide_transformer_downstream_tasks dataset features the 18 downstream tasks presented in the Nucleotide Transformer paper. They consist of both binary and multi-class classification tasks that aim at providing a consistent genomics benchmark.

Dataset Description

Dataset Summary

The different datasets are collected from 4 different genomics papers:

  • DeePromoter: Robust Promoter Predictor Using Deep Learning: The datasets features 3,065 TATA promoters and 26,532 non-TATA promoters, with each promoter yielding a negative sequence by randomly sampling parts of the sequence. The promoter_all dataset will feature all the promoters and their negative counterparts, while the promoter_tata and promoter_no_tata respectively provide the TATA and non-TATA parts of the dataset.
  • A deep learning framework for enhancer prediction using word embedding and sequence generation: To build the training dataset, the authors collect 742 strong enhancers, 742 weak enhancers and 1484 non-enhancers, and augment the dataset with 6000 synthetic enhancers and 6000 synthetic non-enhancers produced with a generative model. The test dataset is comprised of 100 strong enhancers, 100 weak enhancers and 200 non enhancers. The original paper uses this dataset to do both binary classification (i.e a sample gets classified as non-enhancer or enhancer) and 3-class classification (i.e a sample gets classified as non-enhancer, weak enhancer or strong enhancer). Both tasks are respectively tackled in the enhancers and enhancers_types datasets.
  • SpliceFinder: ab initio prediction of splice sites using convolutional neural network: The authors introduce a dataset containing 10,000 samples of donor site, acceptor site, and non-splice-site, resulting in 30,000 total samples that are featured in the splice_sites_all dataset.
  • Spliceator: multi-species splice site prediction using convolutional neural networks: Two datasets are introduced by this paper, each of them contain splice sites and their corresponding negative datasets. The dataset splice_sites_acceptor features acceptor splice sites and the other, splice_sites_donor, donor splice sites.
  • Qualitatively predicting acetylation and methylation areas in DNA sequences: The paper introduces a set of datasets featuring epigenetic marks identified in the yeast genome, namely acetylation and metylation nucleosome occupancies. Nucleosome occupancy values in these ten datasets were obtained with Chip-Chip experiments and further processed into positive and negative observations to provide the datasets corresponding to the following histone marks: H3, H4, H3K9ac, H3K14ac, H4ac, H3K4me1, H3K4me2, H3K4me3, H3K36me3 and H3K79me3
