摘要	Machine learning-assisted microbiome diversity analysis integrates classical alpha and beta diversity metrics with supervised or unsupervised ML models to classify host phenotypes, identify discriminant taxa, and uncover community-level signatures from 16S rRNA or shotgun metagenomic data. It extends traditional diversity analysis beyond descriptive statistics toward predictive and explanatory modelling across health, ecology, and environmental science.	RNA-seq differential expression (DE) analysis identifies genes whose transcript abundance differs significantly between two or more biological conditions — for example, treated versus control, or diseased versus healthy tissue. Starting from raw sequencing reads, the pipeline moves through alignment, count-based normalization, statistical modeling of count dispersion, hypothesis testing, and multiple-testing correction to produce a ranked list of differentially expressed genes accompanied by fold-change estimates and adjusted p-values.
