Background of the Study
Gene expression analysis is critical for understanding cellular functions, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic responses. At Kebbi State University of Science and Technology in Aliero, Kebbi State, traditional analysis methods are often labor-intensive and limited in scope. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers advanced capabilities to process and analyze large-scale gene expression data, enabling researchers to identify patterns and regulatory networks with higher accuracy and speed (Ibrahim, 2024). AI-based tools can integrate data from microarrays and next-generation sequencing, revealing differential gene expression profiles associated with various diseases. These insights are crucial for identifying potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The development of an AI-based gene expression analysis tool promises to automate data processing, reduce human error, and enhance reproducibility in research. Furthermore, such a tool can support personalized medicine by correlating gene expression patterns with patient outcomes (Adekunle, 2023). However, challenges such as data heterogeneity, model interpretability, and integration with existing bioinformatics pipelines remain. This study focuses on implementing an AI-based tool at Kebbi State University to streamline gene expression analysis, evaluate its performance, and assess its potential to transform research and clinical diagnostics. The research will also address infrastructural and technical challenges to ensure that the tool is scalable and user-friendly for diverse research applications (Chinwe, 2025).
Statement of the Problem
Despite the promise of AI in gene expression analysis, current methods at Kebbi State University face several challenges. Traditional approaches are limited by manual data handling, resulting in slower analysis and potential errors in identifying differentially expressed genes (Emeka, 2023). The complexity and volume of gene expression data further complicate the analysis, often leading to inconclusive or inconsistent results. Moreover, the existing computational infrastructure is not optimized for processing large-scale genomic datasets, which hampers timely data interpretation and impacts subsequent clinical decisions. The integration of AI-based tools into current workflows is impeded by technical challenges, including algorithm optimization and data standardization. These issues result in suboptimal performance and reduced reliability of gene expression studies, limiting the potential for discovering novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets. This study aims to address these challenges by developing an AI-based gene expression analysis tool that enhances accuracy, speed, and reproducibility, while also proposing strategies for effective integration into existing research frameworks (Ibrahim, 2024).
