A Novel Scalable Apache Spark Based Feature Extraction Approaches for Huge Protein Sequence and their Clustering Performance Analysis

Abstract

Genome sequencing projects are rapidly increasing the number of high-dimensional protein sequence datasets. Clustering a high-dimensional protein sequence dataset using traditional machine learning approaches poses many challenges. Many different feature extraction methods exist and are widely used. However, extracting features from millions of protein sequences becomes impractical because they are not scalable with current algorithms. Therefore, there is a need for an efficient feature extraction approach that extracts significant features.
