Cancer is well recognized as a complex disease with dysregulated molecular networks or modules. Graph- and rule-based analytics have been applied extensively for cancer classification as well as prognosis using large genomic and other data over the past decade. This article provides a comprehensive review of various graph- and rule-based machine learning algorithms that have been applied to numerous genomics data to determine the cancer-specific gene modules, identify gene signature-based classifiers and carry out other related objectives of potential therapeutic value. This review focuses mainly on the methodological design and features of these algorithms to facilitate the application of these graph- and rule-based analytical approaches for cancer classification and prognosis. Based on the type of data integration, we divided all the algorithms into three categories: model-based integration, pre-processing integration and post-processing integration. Each category is further divided into four sub-categories (supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised and survival-driven learning analyses) based on learning style. Therefore, a total of 11 categories of methods are summarized with their inputs, objectives and description, advantages and potential limitations. Next, we briefly demonstrate well-known and most recently developed algorithms for each sub-category along with salient information, such as data profiles, statistical or feature selection methods and outputs. Finally, we summarize the appropriate use and efficiency of all categories of graph- and rule mining-based learning methods when input data and specific objective are given. This review aims to help readers to select and use the appropriate algorithms for cancer classification and prognosis study.
