Deep learning for bias correction of MJO prediction.

ABSTRACT: Producing accurate weather prediction beyond two weeks is an urgent challenge due to its ever-increasing socioeconomic value. The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), a planetary-scale tropical convective system, serves as a primary source of global subseasonal (i.e., targeting three to four weeks) predictability. During the past decades, operational forecasting systems have improved substantially, while the MJO prediction skill has not yet reached its potential predictability, partly due to the systematic errors caused by imperfect numerical models. Here, to improve the MJO prediction skill, we blend the state-of-the-art dynamical forecasts and observations with a Deep Learning bias correction method. With Deep Learning bias correction, multi-model forecast errors in MJO amplitude and phase averaged over four weeks are significantly reduced by about 90% and 77%, respectively. Most models show the greatest improvement for MJO events starting from the Indian Ocean and crossing the Maritime Continent.

Fairness and bias correction in machine learning for depression prediction across four study populations.

Project description:A significant level of stigma and inequality exists in mental healthcare, especially in under-served populations. Inequalities are reflected in the data collected for scientific purposes. When not properly accounted for, machine learning (ML) models learned from data can reinforce these structural inequalities or biases. Here, we present a systematic study of bias in ML models designed to predict depression in four different case studies covering different countries and populations. We find that standard ML approaches regularly present biased behaviors. We also show that mitigation techniques, both standard and our own post-hoc method, can be effective in reducing the level of unfair bias. There is no one best ML model for depression prediction that provides equality of outcomes. This emphasizes the importance of analyzing fairness during model selection and transparent reporting about the impact of debiasing interventions. Finally, we also identify positive habits and open challenges that practitioners could follow to enhance fairness in their models.

Learning from scanners: Bias reduction and feature correction in radiomics.

Project description:PurposeRadiomics are quantitative features extracted from medical images. Many radiomic features depend not only on tumor properties, but also on non-tumor related factors such as scanner signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), reconstruction kernel and other image acquisition settings. This causes undesirable value variations in the features and reduces the performance of prediction models. In this paper, we investigate whether we can use phantom measurements to characterize and correct for the scanner SNR dependence.MethodsWe used a phantom with 17 regions of interest (ROI) to investigate the influence of different SNR values. CT scans were acquired with 9 different exposure settings. We developed an additive correction model to reduce scanner SNR influence.ResultsSixty-two of 92 radiomic features showed high variance due to the scanner SNR. Of these 62 features, 47 showed at least a factor 2 significant standard deviation reduction by using the additive correction model. We assessed the clinical relevance of radiomics instability by using a 221 NSCLC patient cohort measured with the same scanner.ConclusionsPhantom measurements show that roughly two third of the radiomic features depend on the exposure setting of the scanner. The dependence can be modeled and corrected significantly reducing the variation in feature values with at least a factor of 2. More complex models will likely increase the correctability. Scanner SNR correction will result in more reliable radiomics predictions in NSCLC.

A deep learning approach for 18F-FDG PET attenuation correction.

Project description:BACKGROUND:To develop and evaluate the feasibility of a data-driven deep learning approach (deepAC) for positron-emission tomography (PET) image attenuation correction without anatomical imaging. A PET attenuation correction pipeline was developed utilizing deep learning to generate continuously valued pseudo-computed tomography (CT) images from uncorrected 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET images. A deep convolutional encoder-decoder network was trained to identify tissue contrast in volumetric uncorrected PET images co-registered to CT data. A set of 100 retrospective 3D FDG PET head images was used to train the model. The model was evaluated in another 28 patients by comparing the generated pseudo-CT to the acquired CT using Dice coefficient and mean absolute error (MAE) and finally by comparing reconstructed PET images using the pseudo-CT and acquired CT for attenuation correction. Paired-sample t tests were used for statistical analysis to compare PET reconstruction error using deepAC with CT-based attenuation correction. RESULTS:deepAC produced pseudo-CTs with Dice coefficients of 0.80?±?0.02 for air, 0.94?±?0.01 for soft tissue, and 0.75?±?0.03 for bone and MAE of 111?±?16 HU relative to the PET/CT dataset. deepAC provides quantitatively accurate 18F-FDG PET results with average errors of less than 1% in most brain regions. CONCLUSIONS:We have developed an automated approach (deepAC) that allows generation of a continuously valued pseudo-CT from a single 18F-FDG non-attenuation-corrected (NAC) PET image and evaluated it in PET/CT brain imaging.

A Deep Learning based Efficacy Prediction System for Drug Discovery [Trametinib]

Project description:Target protein-based drug and research compound discovery has been undeniably successful strategy in life science research, yet many diseases and biological processes lack obvious targets to enable these approaches. Here, to overcome this major challenge we have developed a deep-learning based efficacy prediction system (DLEPS) to identify potent agents to treat diverse diseases; DLEPS was trained using L1000 project chemical induced “changes of transcriptional profiles” (CTP) data as input. Strikingly, we found that the CTPs for previously unexamined molecules were precisely predicted (0.74 Pearson correlation coefficient). We used DLEPS to examine 4 disorders, and experimentally validated that perillen, chikusetsusaponin IV, trametinib, and liquiritin confer disease-relevant impacts against obesity, hyperuricemia, NASH, and COVID-19, respectively. Importantly, DLEPS also uncovered the biological insight that the MEK-ERK signaling pathway should be understood as a target for developing anti-NASH agents. Beyond illustrating that DLEPS is an effective tool for drug repurposing and development with diverse diseases (including those lacking targets), our study shows how diverse transcriptomics datasets can be harnessed to identify inhibitors and activator chemicals that can expand the scope of biological investigations well beyond mutant-bases analyses.

Universal correction of enzymatic sequence bias

Project description:Coupling molecular biology to high throughput sequencing has revolutionized the study of biology. Molecular genomics techniques are continually refined to provide higher resolution mapping of nucleic acid interactions and nucleic acid structure. These assays are converging on single-nucleotide resolution measurements, but the sequence preferences of molecular biology enzymes can interfere with the accurate interpretation of the data. Enzymatic sequence preferences manifest more prominently as the resolution of these assays increase. We developed seqOutBias to seek out enzymatic sequence bias from experimental data and scale individual sequence reads to correct the bias. We show that this software efficiently and successfully corrects the sequence bias resulting from DNase-seq, TACh-seq, ATAC-seq, MNase-seq, and PRO-seq data.

Pathways to Better Prediction of the MJO: 2. Impacts of Atmosphere-Ocean Coupling on the Upper Ocean and MJO Propagation.

Project description:This study investigates effects of atmosphere-ocean coupling on MJO precipitation and eastward propagation, and upper ocean conditions during and after MJO passage. To explore pathways for improving MJO prediction, three model experiments are conducted using the Unified Wave Interface-Coupled Model at convection-permitting (4 km) resolution: (a) uncoupled atmosphere-only, (b) coupled atmosphere-ocean, and (c) coupled atmosphere-ocean with improved air-sea flux algorithm simulations. The model simulations are compared with observations from the DYNAMO field campaign in 2011. Both coupled atmosphere-ocean simulations produced eastward propagation of the MJO where the uncoupled, atmosphere-only simulation did not. The uncoupled model overestimates both precipitation and surface winds associated with the MJO, while coupled model simulations substantially reduce model bias. Improved air-sea fluxes lead to systematic improvements in precipitation, winds, sea surface temperature, and the ocean mixed layer when compared to the original coupled simulation. This leads to further improvement of the MJO's eastward propagation speed compared with observations. Despite these improvements, the regional coupled simulations still have difficulty representing the extent of convectively suppressed conditions in the Indian Ocean after MJO passage, which indicates the importance of the large-scale environment from lateral boundary conditions. Coupled model simulations also reveal some issues in the representation of upper ocean stratification in the ocean model, especially errors in salinity, which result in overestimation of the mixed layer depth after MJO passage.
