Detecting Transcriptomic Structural Variants in Heterogeneous Contexts via the Multiple Compatible Arrangements Problem

Abstract
Transcriptomic structural variants (TSVs) - large-scale transcriptome sequence change due to structural variation - are common, especially in cancer. Detecting TSVs is a challenging computational problem. Sample heterogeneity (including differences between alleles in diploid organisms) is a critical confounding factor when identifying TSVs. To improve TSV detection in heterogeneous RNA-seq samples, we introduce the Multiple Compatible Arrangement Problem (MCAP), which seeks k genome rearrangements to maximize the number of reads that are concordant with at least one rearrangement. This directly models the situation of a heterogeneous or diploid sample. We prove that MCAP is NP-hard and provide a 1/4-approximation algorithm for k=1 and a 3/4-approximation algorithm for the diploid case (k=2) assuming an oracle for k=1. Combining these, we obtain a 3/16-approximation algorithm for MCAP when k=2 (without an oracle). We also present an integer linear programming formulation for general k. We characterize the graph structures that require k>1 to satisfy all edges and show such structures are prevalent in cancer samples. We evaluate our algorithms on 381 TCGA samples and 2 cancer cell lines and show improved performance compared to the state-of-the-art TSV-calling tool, SQUID.

Single-Source Bottleneck Path Algorithm Faster than Sorting for Sparse Graphs

Authors: Ran Duan, Kaifeng Lyu, and Yuanhang Xie

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 107, 45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)

Abstract
In a directed graph G=(V,E) with a capacity on every edge, a bottleneck path (or widest path) between two vertices is a path maximizing the minimum capacity of edges in the path. For the single-source all-destination version of this problem in directed graphs, the previous best algorithm runs in O(m+n log n) (m=|E| and n=|V|) time, by Dijkstra search with Fibonacci heap [Fredman and Tarjan 1987]. We improve this time bound to O(m sqrt{log n}+sqrt{mn log n log log n}), which is O(n sqrt{log n log log n}) when m=O(n), thus it is the first algorithm which breaks the time bound of classic Fibonacci heap when m=o(n sqrt{log n}). It is a Las-Vegas randomized approach. By contrast, the s-t bottleneck path has algorithm with running time O(m beta(m,n)) [Chechik et al. 2016], where beta(m,n)=min{k >= 1: log^{(k)}n <= m/n}.
