Abstract
AbstractThe taxonomic structure of microbial community sample is highly habitat-specific, making source tracking possible, allowing identification of the niches where samples originate. However, current methods face challenges when source tracking is scaled up. Here, we introduce a deep learning method based on the Ontology-aware Neural Network approach, ONN4MST, for large-scale source tracking. ONN4MST outperformed other methods with near-optimal accuracy when source tracking among 125,823 samples from 114 niches. ONN4MST also has a broad spectrum of applications. Overall, this study represents the first model-based method for source tracking among sub-million microbial community samples from hundreds of niches, with superior speed, accuracy, and interpretability. ONN4MST is available at https://github.com/HUST-NingKang-Lab/ONN4MST.
