Microbiome Datasets

Microbiome datasets are collections of genomic and metagenomic data characterizing microbial communities, primarily aiming to understand their composition, function, and relationship with host health or environmental factors. Current research heavily utilizes machine learning, employing graph neural networks, diffusion models, and other advanced architectures like autoencoders and generative models to address challenges like data sparsity, high dimensionality, and class imbalance, often incorporating phylogenetic information. These analyses facilitate improved disease prediction, personalized medicine approaches, and a deeper understanding of microbial interactions and their functional roles in various ecosystems, ultimately advancing fields like precision medicine and sustainable agriculture.
