DISC: a highly scalable and accurate inference of gene expression and structure for single-cell transcriptomes using semi-supervised deep learning.

ABSTRACT: Dropouts distort gene expression and misclassify cell types in single-cell transcriptome. Although imputation may improve gene expression and downstream analysis to some degree, it also inevitably introduces false signals. We develop DISC, a novel deep learning network with semi-supervised learning to infer gene structure and expression obscured by dropouts. Compared with seven state-of-the-art imputation approaches on ten real-world datasets, we show that DISC consistently outperforms the other approaches. Its applicability, scalability, and reliability make DISC a promising approach to recover gene expression, enhance gene and cell structures, and improve cell type identification for sparse scRNA-seq data.

Accurate recognition of colorectal cancer with semi-supervised deep learning on pathological images.

Project description:Machine-assisted pathological recognition has been focused on supervised learning (SL) that suffers from a significant annotation bottleneck. We propose a semi-supervised learning (SSL) method based on the mean teacher architecture using 13,111 whole slide images of colorectal cancer from 8803 subjects from 13 independent centers. SSL (~3150 labeled, ~40,950 unlabeled; ~6300 labeled, ~37,800 unlabeled patches) performs significantly better than the SL. No significant difference is found between SSL (~6300 labeled, ~37,800 unlabeled) and SL (~44,100 labeled) at patch-level diagnoses (area under the curve (AUC): 0.980 ± 0.014 vs. 0.987 ± 0.008, P value = 0.134) and patient-level diagnoses (AUC: 0.974 ± 0.013 vs. 0.980 ± 0.010, P value = 0.117), which is close to human pathologists (average AUC: 0.969). The evaluation on 15,000 lung and 294,912 lymph node images also confirm SSL can achieve similar performance as that of SL with massive annotations. SSL dramatically reduces the annotations, which has great potential to effectively build expert-level pathological artificial intelligence platforms in practice.

Semi-supervised learning for potential human microRNA-disease associations inference.

Project description:MicroRNAs play critical role in the development and progression of various diseases. Predicting potential miRNA-disease associations from vast amount of biological data is an important problem in the biomedical research. Considering the limitations in previous methods, we developed Regularized Least Squares for MiRNA-Disease Association (RLSMDA) to uncover the relationship between diseases and miRNAs. RLSMDA can work for diseases without known related miRNAs. Furthermore, it is a semi-supervised (does not need negative samples) and global method (prioritize associations for all the diseases simultaneously). Based on leave-one-out cross validation, reliable AUC have demonstrated the reliable performance of RLSMDA. We also applied RLSMDA to Hepatocellular cancer and Lung cancer and implemented global prediction for all the diseases simultaneously. As a result, 80% (Hepatocellular cancer) and 84% (Lung cancer) of top 50 predicted miRNAs and 75% of top 20 potential associations based on global prediction have been confirmed by biological experiments. We also applied RLSMDA to diseases without known related miRNAs in golden standard dataset. As a result, in the top 3 potential related miRNA list predicted by RLSMDA for 32 diseases, 34 disease-miRNA associations were successfully confirmed by experiments. It is anticipated that RLSMDA would be a useful bioinformatics resource for biomedical researches.

Accurate somatic variant detection using weakly supervised deep learning.

Project description:Identification of somatic mutations in tumor samples is commonly based on statistical methods in combination with heuristic filters. Here we develop VarNet, an end-to-end deep learning approach for identification of somatic variants from aligned tumor and matched normal DNA reads. VarNet is trained using image representations of 4.6 million high-confidence somatic variants annotated in 356 tumor whole genomes. We benchmark VarNet across a range of publicly available datasets, demonstrating performance often exceeding current state-of-the-art methods. Overall, our results demonstrate how a scalable deep learning approach could augment and potentially supplant human engineered features and heuristic filters in somatic variant calling.

Deep echocardiography: data-efficient supervised and semi-supervised deep learning towards automated diagnosis of cardiac disease.

Project description:Deep learning and computer vision algorithms can deliver highly accurate and automated interpretation of medical imaging to augment and assist clinicians. However, medical imaging presents uniquely pertinent obstacles such as a lack of accessible data or a high-cost of annotation. To address this, we developed data-efficient deep learning classifiers for prediction tasks in cardiology. Using pipeline supervised models to focus relevant structures, we achieve an accuracy of 94.4% for 15-view still-image echocardiographic view classification and 91.2% accuracy for binary left ventricular hypertrophy classification. We then develop semi-supervised generative adversarial network models that can learn from both labeled and unlabeled data in a generalizable fashion. We achieve greater than 80% accuracy in view classification with only 4% of labeled data used in solely supervised techniques and achieve 92.3% accuracy for left ventricular hypertrophy classification. In exploring trade-offs between model type, resolution, data resources, and performance, we present a comprehensive analysis and improvements of efficient deep learning solutions for medical imaging assessment especially in cardiology.

Developing Sustainable Classification of Diseases via Deep Learning and Semi-Supervised Learning.

Project description:Disease classification based on machine learning has become a crucial research topic in the fields of genetics and molecular biology. Generally, disease classification involves a supervised learning style; i.e., it requires a large number of labelled samples to achieve good classification performance. However, in the majority of the cases, labelled samples are hard to obtain, so the amount of training data are limited. However, many unclassified (unlabelled) sequences have been deposited in public databases, which may help the training procedure. This method is called semi-supervised learning and is very useful in many applications. Self-training can be implemented using high- to low-confidence samples to prevent noisy samples from affecting the robustness of semi-supervised learning in the training process. The deep forest method with the hyperparameter settings used in this paper can achieve excellent performance. Therefore, in this work, we propose a novel combined deep learning model and semi-supervised learning with self-training approach to improve the performance in disease classification, which utilizes unlabelled samples to update a mechanism designed to increase the number of high-confidence pseudo-labelled samples. The experimental results show that our proposed model can achieve good performance in disease classification and disease-causing gene identification.

Scalable and accurate deep learning with electronic health records.

Project description:Predictive modeling with electronic health record (EHR) data is anticipated to drive personalized medicine and improve healthcare quality. Constructing predictive statistical models typically requires extraction of curated predictor variables from normalized EHR data, a labor-intensive process that discards the vast majority of information in each patient's record. We propose a representation of patients' entire raw EHR records based on the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) format. We demonstrate that deep learning methods using this representation are capable of accurately predicting multiple medical events from multiple centers without site-specific data harmonization. We validated our approach using de-identified EHR data from two US academic medical centers with 216,221 adult patients hospitalized for at least 24?h. In the sequential format we propose, this volume of EHR data unrolled into a total of 46,864,534,945 data points, including clinical notes. Deep learning models achieved high accuracy for tasks such as predicting: in-hospital mortality (area under the receiver operator curve [AUROC] across sites 0.93-0.94), 30-day unplanned readmission (AUROC 0.75-0.76), prolonged length of stay (AUROC 0.85-0.86), and all of a patient's final discharge diagnoses (frequency-weighted AUROC 0.90). These models outperformed traditional, clinically-used predictive models in all cases. We believe that this approach can be used to create accurate and scalable predictions for a variety of clinical scenarios. In a case study of a particular prediction, we demonstrate that neural networks can be used to identify relevant information from the patient's chart.

Supervised, semi-supervised and unsupervised inference of gene regulatory networks.

Project description:Inference of gene regulatory network from expression data is a challenging task. Many methods have been developed to this purpose but a comprehensive evaluation that covers unsupervised, semi-supervised and supervised methods, and provides guidelines for their practical application, is lacking. We performed an extensive evaluation of inference methods on simulated and experimental expression data. The results reveal low prediction accuracies for unsupervised techniques with the notable exception of the Z-SCORE method on knockout data. In all other cases, the supervised approach achieved the highest accuracies and even in a semi-supervised setting with small numbers of only positive samples, outperformed the unsupervised techniques.

Deep Cerebellar Nuclei Segmentation via Semi-Supervised Deep Context-Aware Learning from 7T Diffusion MRI.

Project description:Deep cerebellar nuclei are a key structure of the cerebellum that are involved in processing motor and sensory information. It is thus a crucial step to accurately segment deep cerebellar nuclei for the understanding of the cerebellum system and its utility in deep brain stimulation treatment. However, it is challenging to clearly visualize such small nuclei under standard clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols and therefore precise segmentation is not feasible. Recent advances in 7 Tesla (T) MRI technology and great potential of deep neural networks facilitate automatic patient-specific segmentation. In this paper, we propose a novel deep learning framework (referred to as DCN-Net) for fast, accurate, and robust patient-specific segmentation of deep cerebellar dentate and interposed nuclei on 7T diffusion MRI. DCN-Net effectively encodes contextual information on the patch images without consecutive pooling operations and adding complexity via proposed dilated dense blocks. During the end-to-end training, label probabilities of dentate and interposed nuclei are independently learned with a hybrid loss, handling highly imbalanced data. Finally, we utilize self-training strategies to cope with the problem of limited labeled data. To this end, auxiliary dentate and interposed nuclei labels are created on unlabeled data by using DCN-Net trained on manual labels. We validate the proposed framework using 7T B0 MRIs from 60 subjects. Experimental results demonstrate that DCN-Net provides better segmentation than atlas-based deep cerebellar nuclei segmentation tools and other state-of-the-art deep neural networks in terms of accuracy and consistency. We further prove the effectiveness of the proposed components within DCN-Net in dentate and interposed nuclei segmentation.
