The Cox regression, support vector regression, mboost and elastic-net model were combined in the ensemble model. Methylation profiles from The Cancer Genome Atlas were used as real datasets. The package automatically partitions the genome into blocks of tightly co-methylated CpG sites, termed methylation correlated blocks. After partitioning and modeling, the diagnostic capacities for predicting patients\u2019 survivals are given.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>EnMCB is freely available for download at GitHub (https:\/\/github.com\/whirlsyu\/EnMCB\/) and Bioconductor (http:\/\/bioconductor.org\/packages\/release\/bioc\/html\/EnMCB.html).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Supplementary information<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btab415","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,28]],"date-time":"2021-05-28T19:52:32Z","timestamp":1622231552000},"page":"4282-4284","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["EnMCB: an R\/bioconductor package for predicting disease progression based on methylation correlated blocks using ensemble models"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"37","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3760-2315","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xin","family":"Yu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, Huazhong Agricultural University , Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Agricultural Bioinformatics Key Laboratory of Hubei Province, College of Informatics, Huazhong Agricultural University , Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0744-116X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"De-Xin","family":"Kong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology, Huazhong Agricultural University , Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Agricultural Bioinformatics Key Laboratory of Hubei Province, College of Informatics, Huazhong Agricultural University , Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023051607110558300_btab415-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"299","DOI":"10.1038\/nrg777","article-title":"Patterns of linkage disequilibrium in the human genome","volume":"3","author":"Ardlie","year":"2002","journal-title":"Nat.
