Assigning confidence scores to homoeologs using fuzzy logic.

ABSTRACT: In polyploid genomes, homoeologs are a specific subtype of homologs, and can be thought of as orthologs between subgenomes. In Orthologous MAtrix, we infer homoeologs in three polyploid plant species: upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), rapeseed (Brassica napus), and bread wheat (Triticum aestivum). While we can typically recognize the features of a "good" homoeolog prediction (a consistent evolutionary distance, high synteny, and a one-to-one relationship), none of them is a hard-fast criterion. We devised a novel fuzzy logic-based method to assign confidence scores to each pair of predicted homoeologs. We inferred homoeolog pairs and used the new and improved method to assign confidence scores, which ranged from 0 to 100. Most confidence scores were between 70 and 100, but the distribution varied between genomes. The new confidence scores show an improvement over our previous method and were manually evaluated using a subset from various confidence ranges.

Assigning confidence to molecular property prediction.

Project description:Introduction: Computational modeling has rapidly advanced over the last decades. Recently, machine learning has emerged as a powerful and cost-effective strategy to learn from existing datasets and perform predictions on unseen molecules. Accordingly, the explosive rise of data-driven techniques raises an important question: What confidence can be assigned to molecular property predictions and what techniques can be used?Areas covered: The authors discuss popular strategies for predicting molecular properties, their corresponding uncertainty sources and methods to quantify uncertainty. First, the authors' considerations for assessing confidence begin with dataset bias and size, data-driven property prediction and feature design. Next, the authors discuss property simulation via computations of binding affinity in detail. Lastly, they investigate how these uncertainties propagate to generative models, as they are usually coupled with property predictors.Expert opinion: Computational techniques are paramount to reduce the prohibitive cost of brute-force experimentation during exploration. The authors believe that assessing uncertainty in property prediction models is essential whenever closed-loop drug design campaigns relying on high-throughput virtual screening are deployed. Accordingly, considering sources of uncertainty leads to better-informed validations, more reliable predictions and more realistic expectations of the entire workflow. Overall, this increases confidence in the predictions and, ultimately, accelerates drug design.

Multi-valued and Fuzzy Logic Realization using TaOx Memristive Devices.

Project description:Among emerging non-volatile storage technologies, redox-based resistive switching Random Access Memory (ReRAM) is a prominent one. The realization of Boolean logic functionalities using ReRAM adds an extra edge to this technology. Recently, 7-state ReRAM devices were used to realize ternary arithmetic circuits, which opens up the computing space beyond traditional binary values. In this manuscript, we report realization of multi-valued and fuzzy logic operators with a representative application using ReRAM devices. Multi-valued logic (MVL), such as Łukasiewicz logic generalizes Boolean logic by allowing more than two truth values. MVL also permits operations on fuzzy sets, where, in contrast to standard crisp logic, an element is permitted to have a degree of membership to a given set. Fuzzy operations generally model human reasoning better than Boolean logic operations, which is predominant in current computing technologies. When the available information for the modelling of a system is imprecise and incomplete, fuzzy logic provides an excellent framework for the system design. Practical applications of fuzzy logic include, industrial control systems, robotics, and in general, design of expert systems through knowledge-based reasoning. Our experimental results show, for the first time, that it is possible to model fuzzy logic natively using multi-state memristive devices.

Creating Music With Fuzzy Logic.

Project description:Fuzzy logic is an artificial intelligence technique that has applications in many areas, due to its importance in handling uncertain inputs. Despite the great recent success of other branches of AI, such as deep neural networks, fuzzy logic is still a very powerful machine learning technique, based on expert reasoning, that can be of help in many areas of musical creativity, such as composing music, synthesizing sounds, gestural mappings in electronic instruments, parametric control of sound synthesis, audiovisual content generation or sonification. We propose that fuzzy logic is a very suitable framework for thinking and operating not only with sound and acoustic signals but also with symbolic representations of music. In this article, we discuss the application of fuzzy logic ideas to music, introduce the Fuzzy Logic Control Toolkit, a set of tools to use fuzzy logic inside the MaxMSP real-time sound synthesis environment, and show how some fuzzy logic concepts can be used and incorporated into fields, such as algorithmic composition, sound synthesis and parametric control of computer music. Finally, we discuss the composition of Incerta, an acousmatic multichannel composition as a concrete example of the application of fuzzy concepts to musical creation.

Assigning scores for ordered categorical responses.

Project description:Deciding on the best statistical method to apply when the response variable is ordinal is essential because the way the categories are ordered in the data is relevant as it could change the results of the analysis. Although the models for continuous variables have similarities to those for ordinal variables, this paper presents the advantages of the use of the ordering information on the outcomes with methods developed for modeling ordinal data such as the ordered stereotype model. The novelty of this article lies in showing the dangers of assigning equally spaced scores to ordered response categories in statistical analysis, which are illustrated with a simulation study and a case study. We propose a new way to use the score parameters, which incorporates the fitted spacing dictated by the data. Additionally, this article uses score parameter estimates in the ordered stereotype model to propose a new measure to calculate continuous medians in the raw data: the adjusted c-median. It benefits the general audience who can easily understand the median as a summary statistic. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

BiLSTM-enhanced legal text extraction model using fuzzy logic and metaphor recognition.

Project description:The burgeoning field of natural language processing (NLP) has witnessed exponential growth, captivating researchers due to its diverse practical applications across industries. However, the intricate nature of legal texts poses unique challenges for conventional text extraction methods. To surmount these challenges, this article introduces a pioneering legal text extraction model rooted in fuzzy language processing and metaphor recognition, tailored for the domain of online environment governance. Central to this model is the utilization of a bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) network, adept at delineating illicit behaviors by establishing connections between legal provisions and judgments. Additionally, a self-attention module is integrated into the Bi-LSTM architecture, augmented by L2 regularization, to facilitate the efficient extraction of legal text information, thereby enabling the identification and classification of illegal content. This innovative approach effectively resolves the issue of legal text recognition. Experimental findings underscore the efficacy of the proposed method, achieving an impressive macro-F1 score of 0.8005, precision of 0.8047, and recall of 0.8014. Furthermore, the article delves into an analysis and discussion of the potential application prospects of the legal text extraction model, grounded in fuzzy language processing and metaphor recognition, within the realm of online environment governance.

An integrated three-tier trust management framework in mobile edge computing using fuzzy logic.

Project description:Mobile edge computing (MEC) is introduced as part of edge computing paradigm, that exploit cloud computing resources, at a nearer premises to service users. Cloud service users often search for cloud service providers to meet their computational demands. Due to the lack of previous experience between cloud service providers and users, users hold several doubts related to their data security and privacy, job completion and processing performance efficiency of service providers. This paper presents an integrated three-tier trust management framework that evaluates cloud service providers in three main domains: Tier I, which evaluates service provider compliance to the agreed upon service level agreement; Tier II, which computes the processing performance of a service provider based on its number of successful processes; and Tier III, which measures the violations committed by a service provider, per computational interval, during its processing in the MEC network. The three-tier evaluation is performed during Phase I computation. In Phase II, a service provider total trust value and status are gained through the integration of the three tiers using the developed overall trust fuzzy inference system (FIS). The simulation results of Phase I show the service provider trust value in terms of service level agreement compliance, processing performance and measurement of violations independently. This disseminates service provider's points of failure, which enables a service provider to enhance its future performance for the evaluated domains. The Phase II results show the overall trust value and status per service provider after integrating the three tiers using overall trust FIS. The proposed model is distinguished among other models by evaluating different parameters for a service provider.

Predicting target profiles with confidence as a service using docking scores

Project description:Background Identifying and assessing ligand-target binding is a core component in early drug discovery as one or more unwanted interactions may be associated with safety issues. Contributions We present an open-source, extendable web service for predicting target profiles with confidence using machine learning for a panel of 7 targets, where models are trained on molecular docking scores from a large virtual library. The method uses conformal prediction to produce valid measures of prediction efficiency for a particular confidence level. The service also offers the possibility to dock chemical structures to the panel of targets with QuickVina on individual compound basis. Results The docking procedure and resulting models were validated by docking well-known inhibitors for each of the 7 targets using QuickVina. The model predictions showed comparable performance to molecular docking scores against an external validation set. The implementation as publicly available microservices on Kubernetes ensures resilience, scalability, and extensibility.

Drought index prediction using advanced fuzzy logic model: Regional case study over Kumaon in India.

Project description:A new version of the fuzzy logic model, called the co-active neuro fuzzy inference system (CANFIS), is introduced for predicting standardized precipitation index (SPI). Multiple scales of drought information at six meteorological stations located in Uttarakhand State, India, are used. Different lead times of SPI were computed for prediction, including 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24 months, with inputs abstracted by autocorrelation function (ACF) and partial-ACF (PACF) analysis at 5% significance level. The proposed CANFIS model was validated against two models: classical artificial intelligence model (e.g., multilayer perceptron neural network (MLPNN)) and regression model (e.g., multiple linear regression (MLR)). Several performance evaluation metrices (root mean square error, Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, coefficient of correlation, and Willmott index), and graphical visualizations (scatter plot and Taylor diagram) were computed for the evaluation of model performance. Results indicated that the CANFIS model predicted the SPI better than the other models and prediction results were different for different meteorological stations. The proposed model can build a reliable expert intelligent system for predicting meteorological drought at multi-time scales and decision making for remedial schemes to cope with meteorological drought at the study stations and can help to maintain sustainable water resources management.
