An Evaluation of Machine Learning Approaches for the Prediction of Essential Genes in Eukaryotes Using Protein Sequence-Derived Features

The availability of whole-genome sequences and associated multi-omics data sets, combined with advances in gene knockout and knockdown methods, has enabled large-scale annotation and exploration of gene and protein functions in eukaryotes. Knowing which genes are essential for the survival of eukary...
