Biomarker detection has been crucially important to understand the biology and mechanism of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related to tumor progression and treatment resistance. The existing method in a previous study simply detected differentially-expressed genes by ranking all genes by their variances. This paper proposes a novel method to detect markers for respective lineages in the EMT process. Our method consists of two steps: first, inference trajectories to identify the lineages of transitional processes along with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and secondly, identify markers of both EMT progression and reversion lineages with differential expression analysis. Using this method, we successfully detected potential markers related to EMT, Phospholipid phosphatase 4 (PLPP4), which have not been detected by the existing method.
