Deep learning improves antimicrobial peptide recognition.

ABSTRACT: Motivation:Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a growing concern. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), natural components of innate immunity, are popular targets for developing new drugs. Machine learning methods are now commonly adopted by wet-laboratory researchers to screen for promising candidates. Results:In this work, we utilize deep learning to recognize antimicrobial activity. We propose a neural network model with convolutional and recurrent layers that leverage primary sequence composition. Results show that the proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art classification models on a comprehensive dataset. By utilizing the embedding weights, we also present a reduced-alphabet representation and show that reasonable AMP recognition can be maintained using nine amino acid types. Availability and implementation:Models and datasets are made freely available through the Antimicrobial Peptide Scanner vr.2 web server at www.ampscanner.com. Supplementary information:Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Deep Learning for Novel Antimicrobial Peptide Design.

Project description:Antimicrobial resistance is an increasing issue in healthcare as the overuse of antibacterial agents rises during the COVID-19 pandemic. The need for new antibiotics is high, while the arsenal of available agents is decreasing, especially for the treatment of infections by Gram-negative bacteria like Escherichia coli. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are offering a promising route for novel antibiotic development and deep learning techniques can be utilised for successful AMP design. In this study, a long short-term memory (LSTM) generative model and a bidirectional LSTM classification model were constructed to design short novel AMP sequences with potential antibacterial activity against E. coli. Two versions of the generative model and six versions of the classification model were trained and optimised using Bayesian hyperparameter optimisation. These models were used to generate sets of short novel sequences that were classified as antimicrobial or non-antimicrobial. The validation accuracies of the classification models were 81.6-88.9% and the novel AMPs were classified as antimicrobial with accuracies of 70.6-91.7%. Predicted three-dimensional conformations of selected short AMPs exhibited the alpha-helical structure with amphipathic surfaces. This demonstrates that LSTMs are effective tools for generating novel AMPs against targeted bacteria and could be utilised in the search for new antibiotics leads.

Deep learning model for deep fake face recognition and detection.

Project description:Deep Learning is an effective technique and used in various fields of natural language processing, computer vision, image processing and machine vision. Deep fakes uses deep learning technique to synthesis and manipulate image of a person in which human beings cannot distinguish the fake one. By using generative adversarial neural networks (GAN) deep fakes are generated which may threaten the public. Detecting deep fake image content plays a vital role. Many research works have been done in detection of deep fakes in image manipulation. The main issues in the existing techniques are inaccurate, consumption time is high. In this work we implement detecting of deep fake face image analysis using deep learning technique of fisherface using Local Binary Pattern Histogram (FF-LBPH). Fisherface algorithm is used to recognize the face by reduction of the dimension in the face space using LBPH. Then apply DBN with RBM for deep fake detection classifier. The public data sets used in this work are FFHQ, 100K-Faces DFFD, CASIA-WebFace.

Deep learning for HGT insertion sites recognition.

Project description:BackgroundHorizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) refers to the sharing of genetic materials between distant species that are not in a parent-offspring relationship. The HGT insertion sites are important to understand the HGT mechanisms. Recent studies in main agents of HGT, such as transposon and plasmid, demonstrate that insertion sites usually hold specific sequence features. This motivates us to find a method to infer HGT insertion sites according to sequence features.ResultsIn this paper, we propose a deep residual network, DeepHGT, to recognize HGT insertion sites. To train DeepHGT, we extracted about 1.55 million sequence segments as training instances from 262 metagenomic samples, where the ratio between positive instances and negative instances is about 1:1. These segments are randomly partitioned into three subsets: 80% of them as the training set, 10% as the validation set, and the remaining 10% as the test set. The training loss of DeepHGT is 0.4163 and the validation loss is 0.423. On the test set, DeepHGT has achieved the area under curve (AUC) value of 0.8782. Furthermore, in order to further evaluate the generalization of DeepHGT, we constructed an independent test set containing 689,312 sequence segments from another 147 gut metagenomic samples. DeepHGT has achieved the AUC value of 0.8428, which approaches the previous test AUC value. As a comparison, the gradient boosting classifier model implemented in PyFeat achieve an AUC value of 0.694 and 0.686 on the above two test sets, respectively. Furthermore, DeepHGT could learn discriminant sequence features; for example, DeepHGT has learned a sequence pattern of palindromic subsequences as a significantly (P-value=0.0182) local feature. Hence, DeepHGT is a reliable model to recognize the HGT insertion site.ConclusionDeepHGT is the first deep learning model that can accurately recognize HGT insertion sites on genomes according to the sequence pattern.

Deep learning enhanced Rydberg multifrequency microwave recognition.

Project description:Recognition of multifrequency microwave (MW) electric fields is challenging because of the complex interference of multifrequency fields in practical applications. Rydberg atom-based measurements for multifrequency MW electric fields is promising in MW radar and MW communications. However, Rydberg atoms are sensitive not only to the MW signal but also to noise from atomic collisions and the environment, meaning that solution of the governing Lindblad master equation of light-atom interactions is complicated by the inclusion of noise and high-order terms. Here, we solve these problems by combining Rydberg atoms with deep learning model, demonstrating that this model uses the sensitivity of the Rydberg atoms while also reducing the impact of noise without solving the master equation. As a proof-of-principle demonstration, the deep learning enhanced Rydberg receiver allows direct decoding of the frequency-division multiplexed signal. This type of sensing technology is expected to benefit Rydberg-based MW fields sensing and communication.

Deep learning approach to peripheral leukocyte recognition.

Project description:Microscopic examination of peripheral blood plays an important role in the field of diagnosis and control of major diseases. Peripheral leukocyte recognition by manual requires medical technicians to observe blood smears through light microscopy, using their experience and expertise to discriminate and analyze different cells, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and subjective. The traditional systems based on feature engineering often need to ensure successful segmentation and then manually extract certain quantitative and qualitative features for recognition but still remaining a limitation of poor robustness. The classification pipeline based on convolutional neural network is of automatic feature extraction and free of segmentation but hard to deal with multiple object recognition. In this paper, we take leukocyte recognition as object detection task and apply two remarkable object detection approaches, Single Shot Multibox Detector and An Incremental Improvement Version of You Only Look Once. To improve recognition performance, some key factors involving these object detection approaches are explored and the detection models are generated using the train set of 14,700 annotated images. Finally, we evaluate these detection models on test sets consisting of 1,120 annotated images and 7,868 labeled single object images corresponding to 11 categories of peripheral leukocytes, respectively. A best mean average precision of 93.10% and mean accuracy of 90.09% are achieved while the inference time is 53 ms per image on a NVIDIA GTX1080Ti GPU.

Automatic Fungi Recognition: Deep Learning Meets Mycology.

Project description:The article presents an AI-based fungi species recognition system for a citizen-science community. The system's real-time identification too - FungiVision - with a mobile application front-end, led to increased public interest in fungi, quadrupling the number of citizens collecting data. FungiVision, deployed with a human-in-the-loop, reaches nearly 93% accuracy. Using the collected data, we developed a novel fine-grained classification dataset - Danish Fungi 2020 (DF20) - with several unique characteristics: species-level labels, a small number of errors, and rich observation metadata. The dataset enables the testing of the ability to improve classification using metadata, e.g., time, location, habitat and substrate, facilitates classifier calibration testing and finally allows the study of the impact of the device settings on the classification performance. The continual flow of labelled data supports improvements of the online recognition system. Finally, we present a novel method for the fungi recognition service, based on a Vision Transformer architecture. Trained on DF20 and exploiting available metadata, it achieves a recognition error that is 46.75% lower than the current system. By providing a stream of labeled data in one direction, and an accuracy increase in the other, the collaboration creates a virtuous cycle helping both communities.

Deep-AmPEP30: Improve Short Antimicrobial Peptides Prediction with Deep Learning.

Project description:Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a valuable source of antimicrobial agents and a potential solution to the multi-drug resistance problem. In particular, short-length AMPs have been shown to have enhanced antimicrobial activities, higher stability, and lower toxicity to human cells. We present a short-length (?30 aa) AMP prediction method, Deep-AmPEP30, developed based on an optimal feature set of PseKRAAC reduced amino acids composition and convolutional neural network. On a balanced benchmark dataset of 188 samples, Deep-AmPEP30 yields an improved performance of 77% in accuracy, 85% in the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC), and 85% in area under the precision-recall curve (AUC-PR) over existing machine learning-based methods. To demonstrate its power, we screened the genome sequence of Candida glabrata-a gut commensal fungus expected to interact with and/or inhibit other microbes in the gut-for potential AMPs and identified a peptide of 20 aa (P3, FWELWKFLKSLWSIFPRRRP) with strong anti-bacteria activity against Bacillus subtilis and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The potency of the peptide is remarkably comparable to that of ampicillin. Therefore, Deep-AmPEP30 is a promising prediction tool to identify short-length AMPs from genomic sequences for drug discovery. Our method is available at https://cbbio.cis.um.edu.mo/AxPEP for both individual sequence prediction and genome screening for AMPs.

Deep learning using tumor HLA peptide mass spectrometry datasets improves neoantigen identification

Project description:Neoantigens, which are expressed on tumor cells, are one of the main targets of an effective anti-tumor T-cell response. Cancer immunotherapies to target neoantigens are of growing interest, and are currently in early human trials, but methods to identify neoantigens either require invasive or difficult-to-obtain clinical specimens, the screening of hundreds to thousands of synthetic peptides or tandem minigenes or are only relevant to specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. We apply deep learning to a large (N=74 patients) HLA peptide and genomic dataset from various human tumors to create a computational model of antigen presentation for neoantigen prediction. We show that our model, named EDGE, increases the positive predictive value of HLA antigen prediction by up to 9 fold. We apply EDGE to enable identification of neoantigens and neoantigen-reactive T cells using routine clinical specimens and small numbers of synthetic peptides for most common HLA alleles. EDGE could enable an improved ability to develop neoantigen-targeted immunotherapies for cancer patients.
