Wide and deep learning for automatic cell type identification.

ABSTRACT: Cell type classification is an important problem in cancer research, especially with the advent of single cell technologies. Correctly identifying cells within the tumor microenvironment can provide oncologists with a snapshot of how a patient's immune system reacts to the tumor. Wide and deep learning (WDL) is an approach to construct a cell-classification prediction model that can learn patterns within high-dimensional data (deep) and ensure that biologically relevant features (wide) remain in the final model. In this paper, we demonstrate that regularization can prevent overfitting and adding a wide component to a neural network can result in a model with better predictive performance. In particular, we observed that a combination of dropout and ?2 regularization can lead to a validation loss function that does not depend on the number of training iterations and does not experience a significant decrease in prediction accuracy compared to models with ?1 , dropout, or no regularization. Additionally, we show WDL can have superior classification accuracy when the training and testing of a model are completed data on that arise from the same cancer type but different platforms. More specifically, WDL compared to traditional deep learning models can substantially increase the overall cell type prediction accuracy (36.5 to 86.9%) and T cell subtypes (CD4: 2.4 to 59.1%, and CD8: 19.5 to 96.1%) when the models were trained using melanoma data obtained from the 10X platform and tested on basal cell carcinoma data obtained using SMART-seq. WDL obtains higher accuracy when compared to state-of-the-art cell classification algorithms CHETAH (70.36%) and SingleR (70.59%).

Project description:PurposeTo investigate the feasibility of automatic identification and classification of hip fractures using deep learning, which may improve outcomes by reducing diagnostic errors and decreasing time to operation.Materials and methodsHip and pelvic radiographs from 1118 studies were reviewed, and 3026 hips were labeled via bounding boxes and classified as normal, displaced femoral neck fracture, nondisplaced femoral neck fracture, intertrochanteric fracture, previous open reduction and internal fixation, or previous arthroplasty. A deep learning-based object detection model was trained to automate the placement of the bounding boxes. A Densely Connected Convolutional Neural Network (or DenseNet) was trained on a subset of the bounding box images, and its performance was evaluated on a held-out test set and by comparison on a 100-image subset with two groups of human observers: fellowship-trained radiologists and orthopedists; senior residents in emergency medicine, radiology, and orthopedics.ResultsThe binary accuracy for detecting a fracture of this model was 93.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 90.8%, 96.5%), with a sensitivity of 93.2% (95% CI: 88.9%, 97.1%) and a specificity of 94.2% (95% CI: 89.7%, 98.4%). Multiclass classification accuracy was 90.8% (95% CI: 87.5%, 94.2%). When compared with the accuracy of human observers, the accuracy of the model achieved an expert-level classification, at the very least, under all conditions. Additionally, when the model was used as an aid, human performance improved, with aided resident performance approximating unaided fellowship-trained expert performance in the multiclass classification.ConclusionA deep learning model identified and classified hip fractures with expert-level performance, at the very least, and when used as an aid, improved human performance, with aided resident performance approximating that of unaided fellowship-trained attending physicians.Supplemental material is available for this article.© RSNA, 2020.

Project description:BackgroundMyopia is the leading cause of visual impairment and affects millions of children worldwide. Timely and annual manual optometric screenings of the entire at-risk population improve outcomes, but screening is challenging due to the lack of availability and training of assessors and the economic burden imposed by the screenings. Recently, deep learning and computer vision have shown powerful potential for disease screening. However, these techniques have not been applied to large-scale myopia screening using ocular appearance images.MethodsWe trained a deep learning system (DLS) for myopia detection using 2,350 ocular appearance images (processed by 7,050 pictures) from children aged 6 to 18. Myopia is defined as a spherical equivalent refraction (SER) [the algebraic sum in diopters (D), sphere + 1/2 cylinder] ≤-0.5 diopters. Saliency maps and gradient class activation maps (grad-CAM) were used to highlight the regions recognized by VGG-Face. In a prospective clinical trial, 100 ocular appearance images were used to assess the performance of the DLS.ResultsThe area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity of the DLS were 0.9270 (95% CI, 0.8580-0.9610), 81.13% (95% CI, 76.86-5.39%), and 86.42% (95% CI, 82.30-90.54%), respectively. Based on the saliency maps and grad-CAMs, the DLS mainly focused on eyes, especially the temporal sclera, rather than the background or other parts of the face. In the prospective clinical trial, the DLS achieved better diagnostic performance than the ophthalmologists in terms of sensitivity [DLS: 84.00% (95% CI, 73.50-94.50%) versus ophthalmologists: 64.00% (95% CI, 48.00-72.00%)] and specificity [DLS: 74.00% (95% CI, 61.40-86.60%) versus ophthalmologists: 53.33% (95% CI, 30.00-66.00%)]. We also computed AUC subgroups stratified by sex and age. DLS achieved comparable AUCs for children of different sexes and ages.ConclusionsThis study for the first time applied deep learning to myopia screening using ocular images and achieved high screening accuracy, enabling the remote monitoring of the refractive status in children with myopia. The application of our DLS will directly benefit public health and relieve the substantial burden imposed by myopia-associated visual impairment or blindness.

Project description:BackgroundMedication errors account for a large proportion of all medical errors. In most homes, patients take a variety of medications for a long period. However, medication errors frequently occur because patients often throw away the containers of their medications.ObjectiveWe proposed a deep learning-based system for reducing medication errors by accurately identifying prescription pills. Given the pill images, our system located the pills in the respective pill databases in South Korea and the United States.MethodsWe organized the system into a pill recognition step and pill retrieval step, and we applied deep learning models to train not only images of the pill but also imprinted characters. In the pill recognition step, there are 3 modules that recognize the 3 features of pills and their imprints separately and correct the recognized imprint to fit the actual data. We adopted image classification and text detection models for the feature and imprint recognition modules, respectively. In the imprint correction module, we introduced a language model for the first time in the pill identification system and proposed a novel coordinate encoding technique for effective correction in the language model. We identified pills using similarity scores of pill characteristics with those in the database.ResultsWe collected the open pill database from South Korea and the United States in May 2022. We used a total of 24,404 pill images in our experiments. The experimental results show that the predicted top-1 candidates achieve accuracy levels of 85.6% (South Korea) and 74.5% (United States) for the types of pills not trained on 2 different databases (South Korea and the United States). Furthermore, the predicted top-1 candidate accuracy of our system was 78% with consumer-granted images, which was achieved by training only 1 image per pill. The results demonstrate that our system could identify and retrieve new pills without additional model updates. Finally, we confirmed through an ablation study that the language model that we emphasized significantly improves the pill identification ability of the system.ConclusionsOur study proposes the possibility of reducing medical errors by showing that the introduction of artificial intelligence can identify numerous pills with high precision in real time. Our study suggests that the proposed system can reduce patients' misuse of medications and help medical staff focus on higher-level tasks by simplifying time-consuming lower-level tasks such as pill identification.
