Abstract
This article is dedicated to the application of machine learning methods
for phenotyping patients with HPV-associated cervical lesions using
Toll-like receptor (TLR) testing data. One of the most relevant
directions in the field of medical diagnostics and research is the
search for effective methods of classifying pathological conditions
based on biomarkers and clinical data. This study presents a new
approach to phenotyping patients with HPV-associated cervical lesions
using agglomerative clustering. The results of our research demonstrate
the effectiveness of agglomerative clustering for phenotyping patients
with HPV-associated cervical lesions. We identified several distinct
clusters, each characterized by unique mRNA expression profiles of TLRs.
These findings can contribute to a more accurate classification and
diagnosis of patients, as well as facilitate an individualized approach
to the treatment and management of HPV-associated cervical lesions.
Thus, this work confirms the potential of agglomerative clustering in
the field of medical research and diagnostics, especially when analyzing
mRNA TLR expression data in the context of HPV-associated cervical
lesions.
