Label-free quality control and identification of human keratinocyte stem cells by deep learning-based automated cell tracking.

ABSTRACT: Stem cell-based products have clinical and industrial applications. Thus, there is a need to develop quality control methods to standardize stem cell manufacturing. Here, we report a deep learning-based automated cell tracking (DeepACT) technology for noninvasive quality control and identification of cultured human stem cells. The combination of deep learning-based cascading cell detection and Kalman filter algorithm-based tracking successfully tracked the individual cells within the densely packed human epidermal keratinocyte colonies in the phase-contrast images of the culture. DeepACT rapidly analyzed the motion of individual keratinocytes, which enabled the quantitative evaluation of keratinocyte dynamics in response to changes in culture conditions. Furthermore, DeepACT can distinguish keratinocyte stem cell colonies from non-stem cell-derived colonies by analyzing the spatial and velocity information of cells. This system can be widely applied to stem cell cultures used in regenerative medicine and provides a platform for developing reliable and noninvasive quality control technology.

Deep Learning in Label-free Cell Classification.

Project description:Label-free cell analysis is essential to personalized genomics, cancer diagnostics, and drug development as it avoids adverse effects of staining reagents on cellular viability and cell signaling. However, currently available label-free cell assays mostly rely only on a single feature and lack sufficient differentiation. Also, the sample size analyzed by these assays is limited due to their low throughput. Here, we integrate feature extraction and deep learning with high-throughput quantitative imaging enabled by photonic time stretch, achieving record high accuracy in label-free cell classification. Our system captures quantitative optical phase and intensity images and extracts multiple biophysical features of individual cells. These biophysical measurements form a hyperdimensional feature space in which supervised learning is performed for cell classification. We compare various learning algorithms including artificial neural network, support vector machine, logistic regression, and a novel deep learning pipeline, which adopts global optimization of receiver operating characteristics. As a validation of the enhanced sensitivity and specificity of our system, we show classification of white blood T-cells against colon cancer cells, as well as lipid accumulating algal strains for biofuel production. This system opens up a new path to data-driven phenotypic diagnosis and better understanding of the heterogeneous gene expressions in cells.

Deep-learning-based three-dimensional label-free tracking and analysis of immunological synapses of CAR-T cells.

Project description:The immunological synapse (IS) is a cell-cell junction between a T cell and a professional antigen-presenting cell. Since the IS formation is a critical step for the initiation of an antigen-specific immune response, various live-cell imaging techniques, most of which rely on fluorescence microscopy, have been used to study the dynamics of IS. However, the inherent limitations associated with the fluorescence-based imaging, such as photo-bleaching and photo-toxicity, prevent the long-term assessment of dynamic changes of IS with high frequency. Here, we propose and experimentally validate a label-free, volumetric, and automated assessment method for IS dynamics using a combinational approach of optical diffraction tomography and deep learning-based segmentation. The proposed method enables an automatic and quantitative spatiotemporal analysis of IS kinetics of morphological and biochemical parameters associated with IS dynamics, providing a new option for immunological research.

Active learning with label quality control.

Project description:Training deep neural networks requires a large number of labeled samples, which are typically provided by crowdsourced workers or professionals at a high cost. To obtain qualified labels, samples need to be relabeled for inspection to control the quality of the labels, which further increases the cost. Active learning methods aim to select the most valuable samples for labeling to reduce labeling costs. We designed a practical active learning method that adaptively allocates labeling resources to the most valuable unlabeled samples and the most likely mislabeled labeled samples, thus significantly reducing the overall labeling cost. We prove that the probability of our proposed method labeling more than one sample from any redundant sample set in the same batch is less than 1/k, where k is the number of the k-fold experiment used in the method, thus significantly reducing the labeling resources wasted on redundant samples. Our proposed method achieves the best level of results on benchmark datasets, and it performs well in an industrial application of automatic optical inspection.

Automated tracking of label-free cells with enhanced recognition of whole tracks.

Project description:Migration and interactions of immune cells are routinely studied by time-lapse microscopy of in vitro migration and confrontation assays. To objectively quantify the dynamic behavior of cells, software tools for automated cell tracking can be applied. However, many existing tracking algorithms recognize only rather short fragments of a whole cell track and rely on cell staining to enhance cell segmentation. While our previously developed segmentation approach enables tracking of label-free cells, it still suffers from frequently recognizing only short track fragments. In this study, we identify sources of track fragmentation and provide solutions to obtain longer cell tracks. This is achieved by improving the detection of low-contrast cells and by optimizing the value of the gap size parameter, which defines the number of missing cell positions between track fragments that is accepted for still connecting them into one track. We find that the enhanced track recognition increases the average length of cell tracks up to 2.2-fold. Recognizing cell tracks as a whole will enable studying and quantifying more complex patterns of cell behavior, e.g. switches in migration mode or dependence of the phagocytosis efficiency on the number and type of preceding interactions. Such quantitative analyses will improve our understanding of how immune cells interact and function in health and disease.

DeLTA: Automated cell segmentation, tracking, and lineage reconstruction using deep learning.

Project description:Microscopy image analysis is a major bottleneck in quantification of single-cell microscopy data, typically requiring human oversight and curation, which limit both accuracy and throughput. To address this, we developed a deep learning-based image analysis pipeline that performs segmentation, tracking, and lineage reconstruction. Our analysis focuses on time-lapse movies of Escherichia coli cells trapped in a "mother machine" microfluidic device, a scalable platform for long-term single-cell analysis that is widely used in the field. While deep learning has been applied to cell segmentation problems before, our approach is fundamentally innovative in that it also uses machine learning to perform cell tracking and lineage reconstruction. With this framework we are able to get high fidelity results (1% error rate), without human intervention. Further, the algorithm is fast, with complete analysis of a typical frame containing ~150 cells taking <700msec. The framework is not constrained to a particular experimental set up and has the potential to generalize to time-lapse images of other organisms or different experimental configurations. These advances open the door to a myriad of applications including real-time tracking of gene expression and high throughput analysis of strain libraries at single-cell resolution.

Label-free imaging for quality control of cardiomyocyte differentiation.

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes provide a promising regenerative cell therapy for cardiovascular patients and an important model system to accelerate drug discovery. However, cost-effective and time-efficient platforms must be developed to evaluate the quality of hPSC-derived cardiomyocytes during biomanufacturing. Here, we develop a non-invasive label-free live cell imaging platform to predict the efficiency of hPSC differentiation into cardiomyocytes. Autofluorescence imaging of metabolic co-enzymes is performed under varying differentiation conditions (cell density, concentration of Wnt signaling activator) across five hPSC lines. Live cell autofluorescence imaging and multivariate classification models provide high accuracy to separate low (< 50%) and high (≥ 50%) differentiation efficiency groups (quantified by cTnT expression on day 12) within 1 day after initiating differentiation (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.91). This non-invasive and label-free method could be used to avoid batch-to-batch and line-to-line variability in cell manufacturing from hPSCs.

COSMOS: A Platform for real-time morphology-based, label-free cell sorting using deep learning (scRNA-Seq)

Project description:Cells are the singular building blocks of life, and comprehensive understanding of morphology among other properties is crucial to assessment of underlying heterogeneity. We developed Computational Sorting and Mapping of Single Cells (COSMOS), a platform based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and microfluidics to characterize and sort single cells based on real-time deep learning interpretation of high-resolution brightfield images. Supervised deep learning models were applied to characterize and sort cell lines and dissociated primary tissue based on high-dimensional embedding vectors of morphology without need for biomarker labels and stains/dyes. We demonstrate COSMOS capabilities with multiple human cell lines and tissue samples. These early results suggest that our neural networks embedding space can capture and recapitulate deep visual characteristics and can be used to efficiently purify unlabeled viable cells with desired morphological traits. Our approach resolves a technical gap in ability to perform real-time deep learning assessment and sorting of cells based on high-resolution brightfield images.

Deep learning with attention supervision for automated motion artefact detection in quality control of cardiac T1-mapping.

Project description:Cardiac magnetic resonance quantitative T1-mapping is increasingly used for advanced myocardial tissue characterisation. However, cardiac or respiratory motion can significantly affect the diagnostic utility of T1-maps, and thus motion artefact detection is critical for quality control and clinically-robust T1 measurements. Manual quality control of T1-maps may provide reassurance, but is laborious and prone to error. We present a deep learning approach with attention supervision for automated motion artefact detection in quality control of cardiac T1-mapping. Firstly, we customised a multi-stream Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) image classifier to streamline the process of automatic motion artefact detection. Secondly, we imposed attention supervision to guide the CNN to focus on targeted myocardial segments. Thirdly, when there was disagreement between the human operator and machine, a second human validator reviewed and rescored the cases for adjudication and to identify the source of disagreement. The multi-stream neural networks demonstrated 89.8% agreement, 87.4% ROC-AUC on motion artefact detection with the human operator in the 2568 T1 maps. Trained with additional supervision on attention, agreements and AUC significantly improved to 91.5% and 89.1%, respectively (p < 0.001). Rescoring of disagreed cases by the second human validator revealed that human operator error was the primary cause of disagreement. Deep learning with attention supervision provides a quick and high-quality assurance of clinical images, and outperforms human operators.

Automatic deep learning-driven label-free image-guided patch clamp system.

Project description:Patch clamp recording of neurons is a labor-intensive and time-consuming procedure. Here, we demonstrate a tool that fully automatically performs electrophysiological recordings in label-free tissue slices. The automation covers the detection of cells in label-free images, calibration of the micropipette movement, approach to the cell with the pipette, formation of the whole-cell configuration, and recording. The cell detection is based on deep learning. The model is trained on a new image database of neurons in unlabeled brain tissue slices. The pipette tip detection and approaching phase use image analysis techniques for precise movements. High-quality measurements are performed on hundreds of human and rodent neurons. We also demonstrate that further molecular and anatomical analysis can be performed on the recorded cells. The software has a diary module that automatically logs patch clamp events. Our tool can multiply the number of daily measurements to help brain research.
