A principal component analysis-based framework for statistical modeling of bone displacement during wrist maneuvers.

ABSTRACT: We present a method for the statistical modeling of the displacements of wrist bones during the performance of coordinated maneuvers, such as radial-ulnar deviation (RUD). In our approach, we decompose bone displacement via a set of basis functions, identified via principal component analysis (PCA). We utilized MRI wrist scans acquired at multiple static positions for deriving these basis functions. We then utilized these basis functions to compare the displacements undergone by the bones of the left versus right wrist in the same individual, and between bones of the wrists of men and women, during the performance of the coordinated RUD maneuver. Our results show that the complex displacements of the wrist bones during RUD can be modeled with high reliability with just 5 basis functions, that captured over 91% of variation across individuals. The basis functions were able to predict intermediate wrist bone poses with an overall high accuracy (mean error of 0.26?mm). Our proposed approach found statistically significant differences between bone displacement trajectories in women versus men, however, did not find significant differences in those of the left versus right wrist in the same individual. Our proposed method has the potential to enable detailed analysis of wrist kinematics for each sex, and provide a robust framework for characterizing the normal and pathologic displacement of the wrist bones, such as in the context of wrist instability.

Principal component analysis of dynamic relative displacement fields estimated from MR images.

Project description:Non-destructive measurement of acceleration-induced displacement fields within a closed object is a fundamental challenge. Inferences of how the brain deforms following skull impact have thus relied largely on indirect estimates and course-resolution cadaver studies. We developed a magnetic resonance technique to quantitatively identify the modes of displacement of an accelerating soft object relative to an object enclosing it, and applied it to study acceleration-induced brain deformation in human volunteers. We show that, contrary to the prevailing hypotheses of the field, the dominant mode of interaction between the brain and skull in mild head acceleration is one of sliding arrested by meninges.

A face recognition software framework based on principal component analysis.

Project description:Face recognition, as one of the major biometrics identification methods, has been applied in different fields involving economics, military, e-commerce, and security. Its touchless identification process and non-compulsory rule to users are irreplaceable by other approaches, such as iris recognition or fingerprint recognition. Among all face recognition techniques, principal component analysis (PCA), proposed in the earliest stage, still attracts researchers because of its property of reducing data dimensionality without losing important information. Nevertheless, establishing a PCA-based face recognition system is still time-consuming, since there are different problems that need to be considered in practical applications, such as illumination, facial expression, or shooting angle. Furthermore, it still costs a lot of effort for software developers to integrate toolkit implementations in applications. This paper provides a software framework for PCA-based face recognition aimed at assisting software developers to customize their applications efficiently. The framework describes the complete process of PCA-based face recognition, and in each step, multiple variations are offered for different requirements. Some of the variations in the same step can work collaboratively and some steps can be omitted in specific situations; thus, the total number of variations exceeds 150. The implementation of all approaches presented in the framework is provided.

Trajectory modeling of gestational weight: A functional principal component analysis approach.

Project description:Suboptimal gestational weight gain (GWG), which is linked to increased risk of adverse outcomes for a pregnant woman and her infant, is prevalent. In the study of a large cohort of Canadian pregnant women, our goals are to estimate the individual weight growth trajectory using sparsely collected bodyweight data, and to identify the factors affecting the weight change during pregnancy, such as prepregnancy body mass index (BMI), dietary intakes and physical activity. The first goal was achieved through functional principal component analysis (FPCA) by conditional expectation. For the second goal, we used linear regression with the total weight gain as the response variable. The trajectory modeling through FPCA had a significantly smaller root mean square error (RMSE) and improved adaptability than the classic nonlinear mixed-effect models, demonstrating a novel tool that can be used to facilitate real time monitoring and interventions of GWG. Our regression analysis showed that prepregnancy BMI had a high predictive value for the weight changes during pregnancy, which agrees with the published weight gain guideline.

PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS FOR EXPERIMENTS

Project description:Although principal component analysis is frequently used in multivariate/ analysis, it has disadvantages when applied to experimental or diagnostic data. First, the identified principal components have poor generality; since the size and directions of the components are dependent on the particular data set, the components are valid only within the set. Second, the method is sensitive to experimental noise and bias between sample groups, since it cannot reflect the design of experiments; rather, it estimates the same weight and independence of all the samples in the matrix. Third, the resulting components are often difficult to interpret. To address these issues, several options were introduced to the methodology. The resulting components were scaled to unify their size unit. Also, the principal axes were identified using training data sets and shared among experiments. This training data reflects the design of experiments, and its preparation allows noise to be reduced and group bias to be removed. The effects of these options were observed in microarray experiments, and showed an improvement in the separation of groups and robustness to noise. Additionally, unknown samples were appropriately classified using pre-arranged axes, and principal axes well reflected the characteristics of groups in the experiments. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Statistical Framework for Uncertainty Quantification in Computational Molecular Modeling.

Project description:As computational modeling, simulation, and predictions are becoming integral parts of biomedical pipelines, it behooves us to emphasize the reliability of the computational protocol. For any reported quantity of interest (QOI), one must also compute and report a measure of the uncertainty or error associated with the QOI. This is especially important in molecular modeling, since in most practical applications the inputs to the computational protocol are often noisy, incomplete, or low-resolution. Unfortunately, currently available modeling tools do not account for uncertainties and their effect on the final QOIs with sufficient rigor. We have developed a statistical framework that expresses the uncertainty of the QOI as the probability that the reported value deviates from the true value by more than some user-defined threshold. First, we provide a theoretical approach where this probability can be bounded using Azuma-Hoeffding like inequalities. Second, we approximate this probability empirically by sampling the space of uncertainties of the input and provide applications of our framework to bound uncertainties of several QOIs commonly used in molecular modeling. Finally, we also present several visualization techniques to effectively and quantitavely visualize the uncertainties: in the input, final QOIs, and also intermediate states.

A Spectral Principal Component Analysis-Based Framework for Composite Hard/Soft Tissue Fluorescence Image Investigation.

Project description:Traditional thin sectioning microscopy of large bone and dental tissue samples using demineralization may disrupt structure morphologies and even damage soft tissues, thus compromising the histopathological investigation. Here, we developed a synergistic and original framework on thick sections based on wide-field multi-fluorescence imaging and spectral Principal Component Analysis (sPCA) as an alternative, fast, versatile, and reliable solution, suitable for highly mineralized tissue structure sustain and visualization. Periodontal 2-mm thick sections were stained with a solution containing five fluorescent dyes chosen for their ability to discriminate close tissues, and acquisitions were performed with a multi-zoom macroscope for blue, green, red, and NIR (near-infrared) emissions. Eigen-images derived from both standard scaler (Std) and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (Clahe) pre-preprocessing significantly enhanced tissue contrasts, highly suitable for histopathological investigation with an in-depth detail for sub-tissue structure discrimination. Using this method, it is possible to preserve and delineate accurately the different anatomical/morphological features of the periodontium, a complex tooth-supporting multi-tissue. Indeed, we achieve characterization of gingiva, alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament tissues. The ease and adaptability of this approach make it an effective method for providing high-contrast features that are not usually available in standard staining histology. Beyond periodontal investigations, this first proof of concept of an sPCA solution for optical microscopy of complex structures, especially including mineralized tissues opens new perspectives to deal with other chronic diseases involving complex tissue and organ defects. Overall, such an imaging framework appears to be a novel and convenient strategy for optical microscopy investigation.

A statistical framework for modeling HLA-dependent T cell response data.

Project description:The identification of T cell epitopes and their HLA (human leukocyte antigen) restrictions is important for applications such as the design of cellular vaccines for HIV. Traditional methods for such identification are costly and time-consuming. Recently, a more expeditious laboratory technique using ELISpot assays has been developed that allows for rapid screening of specific responses. However, this assay does not directly provide information concerning the HLA restriction of a response, a critical piece of information for vaccine design. Thus, we introduce, apply, and validate a statistical model for identifying HLA-restricted epitopes from ELISpot data. By looking at patterns across a broad range of donors, in conjunction with our statistical model, we can determine (probabilistically) which of the HLA alleles are likely to be responsible for the observed reactivities. Additionally, we can provide a good estimate of the number of false positives generated by our analysis (i.e., the false discovery rate). This model allows us to learn about new HLA-restricted epitopes from ELISpot data in an efficient, cost-effective, and high-throughput manner. We applied our approach to data from donors infected with HIV and identified many potential new HLA restrictions. Among 134 such predictions, six were confirmed in the lab and the remainder could not be ruled as invalid. These results shed light on the extent of HLA class I promiscuity, which has significant implications for the understanding of HLA class I antigen presentation and vaccine development.

A rapid fluorescent indicator displacement assay and principal component/cluster data analysis for determination of ligand-nucleic acid structural selectivity.

Project description:We describe a rapid fluorescence indicator displacement assay (R-FID) to evaluate the affinity and the selectivity of compounds binding to different DNA structures. We validated the assay using a library of 30 well-known nucleic acid binders containing a variety chemical scaffolds. We used a combination of principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis to interpret the results obtained. This analysis classified compounds based on selectivity for AT-rich, GC-rich and G4 structures. We used the FID assay as a secondary screen to test the binding selectivity of an additional 20 compounds selected from the NCI Diversity Set III library that were identified as G4 binders using a thermal shift assay. The results showed G4 binding selectivity for only a few of the 20 compounds. Overall, we show that this R-FID assay, coupled with PCA and HCA, provides a useful tool for the discovery of ligands selective for particular nucleic acid structures.

Structured functional principal component analysis.

Project description:Motivated by modern observational studies, we introduce a class of functional models that expand nested and crossed designs. These models account for the natural inheritance of the correlation structures from sampling designs in studies where the fundamental unit is a function or image. Inference is based on functional quadratics and their relationship with the underlying covariance structure of the latent processes. A computationally fast and scalable estimation procedure is developed for high-dimensional data. Methods are used in applications including high-frequency accelerometer data for daily activity, pitch linguistic data for phonetic analysis, and EEG data for studying electrical brain activity during sleep.
