Abstract
Background
The effectiveness of biclustering, simultaneous clustering of rows and columns in a data matrix, was shown in gene expression data analysis. Several researchers recognize its potentialities in other research areas. Nevertheless, the last two decades have witnessed the development of a significant number of biclustering algorithms targeting gene expression data analysis and a lack of consistent studies exploring the capacities of biclustering outside this traditional application domain.
Results
This work evaluates the potential use of biclustering in fMRI time series data, targeting the Region × Time dimensions by comparing seven state-in-the-art biclustering and three traditional clustering algorithms on artificial and real data. It further proposes a methodology for biclustering evaluation beyond gene expression data analysis. The results discuss the use of different search strategies in both artificial and real fMRI time series showed the superiority of exhaustive biclustering approaches, obtaining the most homogeneous biclusters. However, their high computational costs are a challenge, and further work is needed for the efficient use of biclustering in fMRI data analysis.
Conclusions
This work pinpoints avenues for the use of biclustering in spatio-temporal data analysis, in particular neurosciences applications. The proposed evaluation methodology showed evidence of the effectiveness of biclustering in finding local patterns in fMRI time series data. Further work is needed regarding scalability to promote the application in real scenarios.
