Dysgraphia detection through machine learning.

ABSTRACT: Dysgraphia, a disorder affecting the written expression of symbols and words, negatively impacts the academic results of pupils as well as their overall well-being. The use of automated procedures can make dysgraphia testing available to larger populations, thereby facilitating early intervention for those who need it. In this paper, we employed a machine learning approach to identify handwriting deteriorated by dysgraphia. To achieve this goal, we collected a new handwriting dataset consisting of several handwriting tasks and extracted a broad range of features to capture different aspects of handwriting. These were fed to a machine learning algorithm to predict whether handwriting is affected by dysgraphia. We compared several machine learning algorithms and discovered that the best results were achieved by the adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) algorithm. The results show that machine learning can be used to detect dysgraphia with almost 80% accuracy, even when dealing with a heterogeneous set of subjects differing in age, sex and handedness.

Machine learning-optimized targeted detection of alternative splicing

Project description:RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) is widely used for analysis of alternative splicing, but in practice, has inherent biases which hinder its ability to detect and quantify splicing events. To address this, we present a targeted RNA-seq method that specifically enriches for splicing-informative junction-spanning reads. Local Splicing Variation sequencing (LSV-seq) utilizes multiplexed reverse transcription from highly scalable pools of primers anchored near splice junctions of interest. Primers are designed using Optimal Prime, a novel dedicated machine learning algorithm trained on the performance of thousands of primer sequences. LSV-seq achieves high on-target capture rates and concordance with RNA-seq, while requiring several-fold lower sequencing depth. We use LSV-seq to target events with low coverage in GTEx RNA-seq data and discover hundreds of previously hidden tissue-specific splicing events. Our results demonstrate the ability of LSV-seq to capture alternative splicing with exceptional sensitivity and highlight its potential to improve the detection of other RNA features of interest.

Machine learning-based detection of immune-mediated diseases from genome-wide cell-free DNA sequencing datasets

Project description:The early detection of tissue and organ damage associated with autoimmune diseases (AID) has been identified as key to improve long-term survival, but non-invasive biomarkers are lacking. Elevated cell-free DNA (cfDNA) levels have been observed in AID and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), prompting interest to use cfDNA as a potential non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. Despite these known disease-related changes in concentration, it remains impossible to identify AID and IBD patients through cfDNA analysis alone. By using unsupervised clustering on large sets of shallow whole-genome sequencing (sWGS) cfDNA data, we uncover AID- and IBD-specific genome-wide patterns in plasma cfDNA in both the obstetric and general AID and IBD populations. Supervised learning of the genome-wide patterns allows AID prediction with 50% sensitivity at 95% specificity. Importantly, the method can identify pregnant women with AID during routine non-invasive prenatal screening. Since AID pregnancies have an increased risk of severe complications, early recognition or detection of new onset AID can redirect pregnancy management and limit potential adverse events. This method opens up new avenues for screening, diagnosis and monitoring of AID and IBD.

Machine learning-based optimization of pre-symptomatic COVID-19 detection through smartwatch.

Project description:Patients with weak or no symptoms accelerate the spread of COVID-19 through various mutations and require more aggressive and active means of validating the COVID-19 infection. More than 30% of patients are reported as asymptomatic infection after the delta mutation spread in Korea. It means that there is a need for a means to more actively and accurately validate the infection of the epidemic via pre-symptomatic detection, besides confirming the infection via the symptoms. Mishara et al. (Nat Biomed Eng 4, 1208-1220, 2020) reported that physiological data collected from smartwatches could be an indicator to suspect COVID-19 infection. It shows that it is possible to identify an abnormal state suspected of COVID-19 by applying an anomaly detection method for the smartwatch's physiological data and identifying the subject's abnormal state to be observed. This paper proposes to apply the One Class-Support Vector Machine (OC-SVM) for pre-symptomatic COVID-19 detection. We show that OC-SVM can provide better performance than the Mahalanobis distance-based method used by Mishara et al. (Nat Biomed Eng 4, 1208-1220, 2020) in three aspects: earlier (23.5-40% earlier) and more detection (13.2-19.1% relative better) and fewer false positives. As a result, we could conclude that OC-SVM using Resting Heart Rate (RHR) with 350 and 300 moving average size is the most recommended technique for COVID-19 pre-symptomatic detection based on physiological data from the smartwatch.

Noninvasive detection of macrophage activation with single-cell resolution through machine learning.

Project description:We present a method enabling the noninvasive study of minute cellular changes in response to stimuli, based on the acquisition of multiple parameters through label-free microscopy. The retrieved parameters are related to different attributes of the cell. Morphological variables are extracted from quantitative phase microscopy and autofluorescence images, while molecular indicators are retrieved via Raman spectroscopy. We show that these independent parameters can be used to build a multivariate statistical model based on logistic regression, which we apply to the detection at the single-cell level of macrophage activation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure and compare their respective performance in assessing the individual cellular state. The models generated from either morphology or Raman can reliably and independently detect the activation state of macrophage cells, which is validated by comparison with their cytokine secretion and intracellular expression of molecules related to the immune response. The independent models agree on the degree of activation, showing that the features provide insight into the cellular response heterogeneity. We found that morphological indicators are linked to the phenotype, which is mostly related to downstream effects, making the results obtained with these variables dose-dependent. On the other hand, Raman indicators are representative of upstream intracellular molecular changes related to specific activation pathways. By partially inhibiting the LPS-induced activation using progesterone, we could identify several subpopulations, showing the ability of our approach to identify the effect of LPS activation, specific inhibition of LPS, and also the effect of progesterone alone on macrophage cells.

Metabolic detection of malignant brain gliomas through plasma lipidomic analysis and support vector machine-based machine learning.

Project description:BackgroundMost malignant brain gliomas (MBGs) are associated with dismal outcomes, mainly due to their late diagnosis. Current diagnostic methods for MBGs are based on imaging and histological examination, which limits their early detection. Here, we aimed to identify reliable plasma lipid biomarkers for non-invasive diagnosis for MBGs.MethodsUntargeted lipidomic analysis was firstly performed using a discovery cohort (n=107). The data were processed by a support vector machine (SVM)-based discriminating model to retrieve a panel of candidate biomarkers. Then, a targeted quantification method was developed, and the SVM-based diagnostic model was constructed using a training cohort (n=750) and tested using a test cohort (n=225). Finally, the performance of the diagnostic model was further evaluated in an independent validation cohort (n=920) enrolled from multiple medical centers.FindingsA panel of 11 plasma lipids was identified as candidate biomarkers with an accuracy of 0.999. The diagnostic model developed achieved a high performance in distinguishing MBGs patients from normal controls with an area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.9877 and 0.9869 in the training and test cohorts, respectively. In the validation cohort, the 11 lipid panel still achieved an accuracy of 0.9641 and an AUC of 0.9866.InterpretationThe present study demonstrates the applicability and robustness of utilizing a machine learning algorithm to analyze lipidomic data for efficient and reliable biomarker screening. The 11 lipid biomarkers show great potential for the non-invasive diagnosis of MBGs with high throughput.FundingA full list of funding bodies that contributed to this study can be found in the Acknowledgments section.

Increase Trichomonas vaginalis detection based on urine routine analysis through a machine learning approach.

Project description:Trichomonas vaginalis (T. vaginalis) detection remains an unsolved problem in using of automated instruments for urinalysis. The study proposes a machine learning (ML)-based strategy to increase the detection rate of T. vaginalis in urine. On the basis of urinalysis data from a teaching hospital during 2009-2013, individuals underwent at least one urinalysis test were included. Logistic regression, support vector machine, and random forest, were used to select specimens with a high risk of T. vaginalis infection for confirmation through microscopic examinations. A total of 410,952 and 428,203 specimens from men and women were tested, of which 91 (0.02%) and 517 (0.12%) T. vaginalis-positive specimens were reported, respectively. The prediction models of T. vaginalis infection attained an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of more than 0.87 for women and 0.83 for men. The Lift values of the top 5% risky specimens were above eight. While the most risky vigintile was picked out by the models and confirmed by microscopic examination, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios for T. vaginalis detection in men and women were USD$170.1 and USD$29.7, respectively. On the basis of urinalysis, the proposed strategy can significantly increase the detection rate of T. vaginalis in a cost-effective manner.

Discovering Glioma Tissue through Its Biomarkers' Detection in Blood by Raman Spectroscopy and Machine Learning.

Project description:The most commonly occurring malignant brain tumors are gliomas, and among them is glioblastoma multiforme. The main idea of the paper is to estimate dependency between glioma tissue and blood serum biomarkers using Raman spectroscopy. We used the most common model of human glioma when continuous cell lines, such as U87, derived from primary human tumor cells, are transplanted intracranially into the mouse brain. We studied the separability of the experimental and control groups by machine learning methods and discovered the most informative Raman spectral bands. During the glioblastoma development, an increase in the contribution of lactate, tryptophan, fatty acids, and lipids in dried blood serum Raman spectra were observed. This overlaps with analogous results of glioma tissues from direct Raman spectroscopy studies. A non-linear relationship between specific Raman spectral lines and tumor size was discovered. Therefore, the analysis of blood serum can track the change in the state of brain tissues during the glioma development.
