Popis: | Timely and efficacious antibiotic treatment depends on precise and quick in silico antimicrobial-resistance predictions. Limited treatment choices due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) highlight the necessity to optimize the available diagnostics. AMR can be explicitly anticipated on the basis of genome sequence. In this study, we used transcriptomes of 410 multidrug-resistant isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We trained 10 machine learning (ML) classifiers on the basis of data on gene expression (GEXP) information and generated predictive models for meropenem, ciprofloxacin, and ceftazidime drugs. Among all the used ML models, four models showed high F1-score, accuracy, precision, and specificity compared with the other models. However, RandomForestClassifier showed a moderate F1-score (0.6), precision (0.61), and specificity (0.625) for ciprofloxacin. In the case of ceftazidime, RidgeClassifier performed well and showed F1-score (0.652), precision (0.654), and specificity (0.652) values. For meropenem, KNeighborsClassifier exhibited moderate F1-score (0.629), precision (0.629), and specificity (0.629). Among these three antibiotics, GEXP data on meropenem and ceftazidime improved diagnostic performance. The findings will pave the way for the establishment of a resistance profiling tool that can predict AMR on the basis of transcriptomic markers. |
