Biomarker discovery aims to select biological markers that differentiate between different groups, and is typically framed as a small-sample high-dimensional feature selection problem. Successfully combining information from multiple datasets studying similar diseases under comparable conditions can increase the accuracy of biomarker discovery. Recent work proposes a Bayesian feature selection framework that finds the sample-conditioned probability of a feature having distributional differences across classes. Here we extend this framework to consider multiple datasets, solve it for Gaussian features, and extend two previously proposed selection algorithms. The proposed algorithms perform well on synthetic simulations. We use them to integrate four breast cancer datasets and perform enrichment analysis.
