    Abstract

    Aging is a complex biological process involving multiple genes that are also related to phenotypic abnormalities. However, the micro view of the associations between aging and human phenotypic abnormalities is still under-studied. We propose a novel framework, HFSKDD, that uses a new hierarchical ontology terms selection method, EL-HIP$_+$, to discover patterns between Gene Ontology and Human Phenotype Ontology databases. The experimental results confirm that EL-HIP$_+$ obtained better performance than the state-of-the-art hierarchical ontology terms selection method in predicting human phenotypic abnormality annotations, whilst HFSKDD also successfully highlighted some insightful associations between aging processes and human phenotypic abnormalities.
