Project description:To decipher the beneficial effects of Polyphenols on health, healthy volunteers were randomized into two groups and were submitted to either a red grape polyphenol rich extract supplemented diet (PP) or a placebo diet (PCB) during 8 weeks. Then they were submitted to a fructose load (3g/kg Fat Free Mass/day) during 7 days. Muscle biopsies were taken before the protocol, 8 weeks after PP or PCB diet and after the 7 days fructose load. We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes regulated by fructose and to identify the mechanism of action of Polyphenols.

Project description:The resolution of feature maps is a critical factor for accurate medical image segmentation. Most of the existing Transformer-based networks for medical image segmentation adopt a U-Net-like architecture, which contains an encoder that converts the high-resolution input image into low-resolution feature maps using a sequence of Transformer blocks and a decoder that gradually generates high-resolution representations from low-resolution feature maps. However, the procedure of recovering high-resolution representations from low-resolution representations may harm the spatial precision of the generated segmentation masks. Unlike previous studies, in this study, we utilized the high-resolution network (HRNet) design style by replacing the convolutional layers with Transformer blocks, continuously exchanging feature map information with different resolutions generated by the Transformer blocks. The proposed Transformer-based network is named the high-resolution Swin Transformer network (HRSTNet). Extensive experiments demonstrated that the HRSTNet can achieve performance comparable with that of the state-of-the-art Transformer-based U-Net-like architecture on the 2021 Brain Tumor Segmentation dataset, the Medical Segmentation Decathlon's liver dataset, and the BTCV multi-organ segmentation dataset.

Project description:Linking fragments to generate a focused compound library for a specific drug target is one of the challenges in fragment-based drug design (FBDD). Hereby, we propose a new program named SyntaLinker, which is based on a syntactic pattern recognition approach using deep conditional transformer neural networks. This state-of-the-art transformer can link molecular fragments automatically by learning from the knowledge of structures in medicinal chemistry databases (e.g. ChEMBL database). Conventionally, linking molecular fragments was viewed as connecting substructures that were predefined by empirical rules. In SyntaLinker, however, the rules of linking fragments can be learned implicitly from known chemical structures by recognizing syntactic patterns embedded in SMILES notations. With deep conditional transformer neural networks, SyntaLinker can generate molecular structures based on a given pair of fragments and additional restrictions. Case studies have demonstrated the advantages and usefulness of SyntaLinker in FBDD.

Project description:Algorithmic automatic item generation can be used to obtain large quantities of cognitive items in the domains of knowledge and aptitude testing. However, conventional item models used by template-based automatic item generation techniques are not ideal for the creation of items for non-cognitive constructs. Progress in this area has been made recently by employing long short-term memory recurrent neural networks to produce word sequences that syntactically resemble items typically found in personality questionnaires. To date, such items have been produced unconditionally, without the possibility of selectively targeting personality domains. In this article, we offer a brief synopsis on past developments in natural language processing and explain why the automatic generation of construct-specific items has become attainable only due to recent technological progress. We propose that pre-trained causal transformer models can be fine-tuned to achieve this task using implicit parameterization in conjunction with conditional generation. We demonstrate this method in a tutorial-like fashion and finally compare aspects of validity in human- and machine-authored items using empirical data. Our study finds that approximately two-thirds of the automatically generated items show good psychometric properties (factor loadings above .40) and that one-third even have properties equivalent to established and highly curated human-authored items. Our work thus demonstrates the practical use of deep neural networks for non-cognitive automatic item generation.

Project description:Many industrial and commercial sensitive loads are subject to the voltage sags and interruptions. The static transfer switch (STS) based on the thyristors is applied to improve the power quality and reliability. However, the transfer will result in severe inrush current in the load transformer, because of the DC component in the magnetic flux generated in the transfer process. The inrush current which is always 2 ~ 30 p.u. can cause the disoperation of relay protective devices and bring potential damage to the transformer. The way to eliminate the DC component is to transfer the related phases when the residual flux linkage of the load transformer and the prospective flux linkage of the alternate source are equal. This paper analyzes how the flux linkage of each winding in the load transformer changes in the transfer process. Based on the residual flux linkage when the preferred source is completely disconnected, the method to calculate the proper time point to close each phase of the alternate source is developed. Simulation and laboratory experiments results are presented to show the effectiveness of the transfer method.

Project description:Coronary artery segmentation is an essential procedure in the computer-aided diagnosis of coronary artery disease. It aims to identify and segment the regions of interest in the coronary circulation for further processing and diagnosis. Currently, automatic segmentation of coronary arteries is often unreliable because of their small size and poor distribution of contrast medium, as well as the problems that lead to over-segmentation or omission. To improve the performance of convolutional-neural-network (CNN) based coronary artery segmentation, we propose a novel automatic method, DR-LCT-UNet, with two innovative components: the Dense Residual (DR) module and the Local Contextual Transformer (LCT) module. The DR module aims to preserve unobtrusive features through dense residual connections, while the LCT module is an improved Transformer that focuses on local contextual information, so that coronary artery-related information can be better exploited. The LCT and DR modules are effectively integrated into the skip connections and encoder-decoder of the 3D segmentation network, respectively. Experiments on our CorArtTS2020 dataset show that the dice similarity coefficient (DSC), Recall, and Precision of the proposed method reached 85.8%, 86.3% and 85.8%, respectively, outperforming 3D-UNet (taken as the reference among the 6 other chosen comparison methods), by 2.1%, 1.9%, and 2.1%.

Project description:Cytoplasmic dynein is a motor protein that walks along microtubules (MTs) and performs mechanical work to power a variety of cellular processes. It remains unclear how a dynein dimer is able to transport cargos against load without coordinating the stepping cycles of its two heads. Here by using a DNA-tethered optical trapping geometry, we find that the force-generating step of a head occurs in the MT-bound state, while the 'primed' unbound state is highly diffusional and only weakly biased to step towards the MT-minus end. The stall forces of the individual heads are additive, with both heads contributing equally to the maximal force production of the dimer. On the basis of these results, we propose that the heads of dynein utilize a 'load-sharing' mechanism, unlike kinesin and myosin. This mechanism may allow dynein to work against hindering forces larger than the maximal force produced by a single head.

Project description:MotivationSymptom-based automatic diagnostic system queries the patient's potential symptoms through continuous interaction with the patient and makes predictions about possible diseases. A few studies use reinforcement learning (RL) to learn the optimal policy from the joint action space of symptoms and diseases. However, existing RL (or Non-RL) methods focus on disease diagnosis while ignoring the importance of symptom inquiry. Although these systems have achieved considerable diagnostic accuracy, they are still far below its performance upper bound due to few turns of interaction with patients and insufficient performance of symptom inquiry. To address this problem, we propose a new automatic diagnostic framework called DxFormer, which decouples symptom inquiry and disease diagnosis, so that these two modules can be independently optimized. The transition from symptom inquiry to disease diagnosis is parametrically determined by the stopping criteria. In DxFormer, we treat each symptom as a token, and formalize the symptom inquiry and disease diagnosis to a language generation model and a sequence classification model, respectively. We use the inverted version of Transformer, i.e. the decoder-encoder structure, to learn the representation of symptoms by jointly optimizing the reinforce reward and cross-entropy loss.ResultsWe conduct experiments on three real-world medical dialogue datasets, and the experimental results verify the feasibility of increasing diagnostic accuracy by improving symptom recall. Our model overcomes the shortcomings of previous RL-based methods. By decoupling symptom query from the process of diagnosis, DxFormer greatly improves the symptom recall and achieves the state-of-the-art diagnostic accuracy.Availability and implementationBoth code and data are available at https://github.com/lemuria-wchen/DxFormer.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Project description:The stress response of polymer double networks depends not only on the properties of the constituent networks but also on the interactions arising between them. Here, we demonstrate, via coarse-grained simulations, that both their global stress response and their microscopic fracture mechanics are governed by load sharing through these internetwork interactions. By comparing our results with affine predictions, where stress redistribution is by definition homogeneous, we show that stress redistribution is highly inhomogeneous. In particular, the affine prediction overestimates the fraction of broken chains by almost an order of magnitude. Furthermore, homogeneous stress distribution predicts a single fracture process, while in our simulations, fracture of sacrificial chains takes place in two steps governed by load sharing within a network and between networks, respectively. Our results thus provide a detailed microscopic picture of how inhomogeneous stress redistribution after rupture of chains governs the fracture of polymer double networks.
