Evaluation of multi-task learning in deep learning-based positioning classification of mandibular third molars.

ABSTRACT: Pell and Gregory, and Winter's classifications are frequently implemented to classify the mandibular third molars and are crucial for safe tooth extraction. This study aimed to evaluate the classification accuracy of convolutional neural network (CNN) deep learning models using cropped panoramic radiographs based on these classifications. We compared the diagnostic accuracy of single-task and multi-task learning after labeling 1330 images of mandibular third molars from digital radiographs taken at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at a general hospital (2014-2021). The mandibular third molar classifications were analyzed using a VGG 16 model of a CNN. We statistically evaluated performance metrics [accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and area under the curve (AUC)] for each prediction. We found that single-task learning was superior to multi-task learning (all p < 0.05) for all metrics, with large effect sizes and low p-values. Recall and F1 scores for position classification showed medium effect sizes in single and multi-task learning. To our knowledge, this is the first deep learning study to examine single-task and multi-task learning for the classification of mandibular third molars. Our results demonstrated the efficacy of implementing Pell and Gregory, and Winter's classifications for specific respective tasks.

Automated detection of third molars and mandibular nerve by deep learning.

Project description:The approximity of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) to the roots of lower third molars (M3) is a risk factor for the occurrence of nerve damage and subsequent sensory disturbances of the lower lip and chin following the removal of third molars. To assess this risk, the identification of M3 and IAN on dental panoramic radiographs (OPG) is mandatory. In this study, we developed and validated an automated approach, based on deep-learning, to detect and segment the M3 and IAN on OPGs. As a reference, M3s and IAN were segmented manually on 81 OPGs. A deep-learning approach based on U-net was applied on the reference data to train the convolutional neural network (CNN) in the detection and segmentation of the M3 and IAN. Subsequently, the trained U-net was applied onto the original OPGs to detect and segment both structures. Dice-coefficients were calculated to quantify the degree of similarity between the manually and automatically segmented M3s and IAN. The mean dice-coefficients for M3s and IAN were 0.947 ± 0.033 and 0.847 ± 0.099, respectively. Deep-learning is an encouraging approach to segment anatomical structures and later on in clinical decision making, though further enhancement of the algorithm is advised to improve the accuracy.

Machine learning to predict distal caries in mandibular second molars associated with impacted third molars.

Project description:Impacted mandibular third molars (M3M) are associated with the occurrence of distal caries on the adjacent mandibular second molars (DCM2M). In this study, we aimed to develop and validate five machine learning (ML) models designed to predict the occurrence of DCM2Ms due to the proximity with M3Ms and determine the relative importance of predictive variables for DCM2Ms that are important for clinical decision making. A total of 2642 mandibular second molars adjacent to M3Ms were analyzed and DCM2Ms were identified in 322 cases (12.2%). The models were trained using logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine, artificial neural network, and extreme gradient boosting ML methods and were subsequently validated using testing datasets. The performance of the ML models was significantly superior to that of single predictors. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the machine learning models ranged from 0.88 to 0.89. Six features (sex, age, contact point at the cementoenamel junction, angulation of M3Ms, Winter's classification, and Pell and Gregory classification) were identified as relevant predictors. These prediction models could be used to detect patients at a high risk of developing DCM2M and ultimately contribute to caries prevention and treatment decision-making for impacted M3Ms.

Deep Multi-Task Multi-Channel Learning for Joint Classification and Regression of Brain Status.

Project description:Jointly identifying brain diseases and predicting clinical scores have attracted increasing attention in the domain of computer-aided diagnosis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, since these two tasks are highly correlated. Although several joint learning models have been developed, most existing methods focus on using human-engineered features extracted from MRI data. Due to the possible heterogeneous property between human-engineered features and subsequent classification/regression models, those methods may lead to sub-optimal learning performance. In this paper, we propose a deep multi-task multi-channel learning (DM2L) framework for simultaneous classification and regression for brain disease diagnosis, using MRI data and personal information (i.e., age, gender, and education level) of subjects. Specifically, we first identify discriminative anatomical landmarks from MR images in a data-driven manner, and then extract multiple image patches around these detected landmarks. A deep multi-task multi-channel convolutional neural network is then developed for joint disease classification and clinical score regression. We train our model on a large multi-center cohort (i.e., ADNI-1) and test it on an independent cohort (i.e., ADNI-2). Experimental results demonstrate that DM2L is superior to the state-of-the-art approaches in brain diasease diagnosis.

Joint Classification and Regression via Deep Multi-Task Multi-Channel Learning for Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis.

Project description:In the field of computer-aided Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, jointly identifying brain diseases and predicting clinical scores using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have attracted increasing attention since these two tasks are highly correlated. Most of existing joint learning approaches require hand-crafted feature representations for MR images. Since hand-crafted features of MRI and classification/regression models may not coordinate well with each other, conventional methods may lead to sub-optimal learning performance. Also, demographic information (e.g., age, gender, and education) of subjects may also be related to brain status, and thus can help improve the diagnostic performance. However, conventional joint learning methods seldom incorporate such demographic information into the learning models. To this end, we propose a deep multi-task multi-channel learning (DM 2L) framework for simultaneous brain disease classification and clinical score regression, using MRI data and demographic information of subjects. Specifically, we first identify the discriminative anatomical landmarks from MR images in a data-driven manner, and then extract multiple image patches around these detected landmarks. We then propose a deep multi-task multi-channel convolutional neural network for joint classification and regression. Our DM 2L framework can not only automatically learn discriminative features for MR images, but also explicitly incorporate the demographic information of subjects into the learning process. We evaluate the proposed method on four large multi-center cohorts with 1984 subjects, and the experimental results demonstrate that DM 2L is superior to several state-of-the-art joint learning methods in both the tasks of disease classification and clinical score regression.

Outcomes of Coronectomy and Total Odontectomy of Impacted Mandibular Third Molars.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of this research was to evaluate the surgical complications and neurosensory deficits after coronectomy and the complete removal of mandibular third molars.MethodsThe study sample included patients requiring surgical removal of mandibular third molars. A coronectomy was conducted on 220 teeth showing signs of close proximity to the inferior alveolar canal. A complete extraction was performed on 218 teeth with no risk signs. The patients were evaluated at 1 week and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery for pain, swelling, neurologic deficit, dry socket, postoperative bleeding, infection, root migration, and eruption.ResultsNo significant difference was noted in pain and swelling; however, bleeding and dry socket were significantly higher in the odontectomy group (P = .017). The inferior alveolar nerve deficit was higher in the odontectomy group (3.7%) than the coronectomy group (0.5%) (P = .017). The percentage and distance of root migration of coronectomised teeth at 3, 6, and 12 months were 60% (2.37 ± 0.96 mm), 66% (3.35 ± 0.86 mm), and 74% (3.85 ± 0.93 mm), respectively.ConclusionsCoronectomy is a safe procedure and should be performed when the roots are closely associated with the mandibular canal. Although root migration is common, the likelihood of root exposure is low and roots rarely need removal.

Pan-cancer classification by regularized multi-task learning.

Project description:Classifying pan-cancer samples using gene expression patterns is a crucial challenge for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients. Machine learning algorithms have been considered proven tools to perform downstream analysis and capture the deviations in gene expression patterns across diversified diseases. In our present work, we have developed PC-RMTL, a pan-cancer classification model using regularized multi-task learning (RMTL) for classifying 21 cancer types and adjacent normal samples using RNASeq data obtained from TCGA. PC-RMTL is observed to outperform when compared with five state-of-the-art classification algorithms, viz. SVM with the linear kernel (SVM-Lin), SVM with radial basis function kernel (SVM-RBF), random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbours (kNN), and decision trees (DT). The PC-RMTL achieves 96.07% accuracy and 95.80% MCC score for a completely unknown independent test set. The only method that appears as the real competitor is SVM-Lin, which nearly equalizes the accuracy in prediction of PC-RMTL but only when complete feature sets are provided for training; otherwise, PC-RMTL outperformed all other classification models. To the best of our knowledge, this is a significant improvement over all the existing works in pan-cancer classification as they have failed to classify many cancer types from one another reliably. We have also compared gene expression patterns of the top discriminating genes across the cancers and performed their functional enrichment analysis that uncovers several interesting facts in distinguishing pan-cancer samples.

Improving protein domain classification for third-generation sequencing reads using deep learning.

Project description:BackgroundWith the development of third-generation sequencing (TGS) technologies, people are able to obtain DNA sequences with lengths from 10s to 100s of kb. These long reads allow protein domain annotation without assembly, thus can produce important insights into the biological functions of the underlying data. However, the high error rate in TGS data raises a new challenge to established domain analysis pipelines. The state-of-the-art methods are not optimized for noisy reads and have shown unsatisfactory accuracy of domain classification in TGS data. New computational methods are still needed to improve the performance of domain prediction in long noisy reads.ResultsIn this work, we introduce ProDOMA, a deep learning model that conducts domain classification for TGS reads. It uses deep neural networks with 3-frame translation encoding to learn conserved features from partially correct translations. In addition, we formulate our problem as an open-set problem and thus our model can reject reads not containing the targeted domains. In the experiments on simulated long reads of protein coding sequences and real TGS reads from the human genome, our model outperforms HMMER and DeepFam on protein domain classification.ConclusionsIn summary, ProDOMA is a useful end-to-end protein domain analysis tool for long noisy reads without relying on error correction.

OmiEmbed: A Unified Multi-Task Deep Learning Framework for Multi-Omics Data.

Project description:High-dimensional omics data contain intrinsic biomedical information that is crucial for personalised medicine. Nevertheless, it is challenging to capture them from the genome-wide data, due to the large number of molecular features and small number of available samples, which is also called "the curse of dimensionality" in machine learning. To tackle this problem and pave the way for machine learning-aided precision medicine, we proposed a unified multi-task deep learning framework named OmiEmbed to capture biomedical information from high-dimensional omics data with the deep embedding and downstream task modules. The deep embedding module learnt an omics embedding that mapped multiple omics data types into a latent space with lower dimensionality. Based on the new representation of multi-omics data, different downstream task modules were trained simultaneously and efficiently with the multi-task strategy to predict the comprehensive phenotype profile of each sample. OmiEmbed supports multiple tasks for omics data including dimensionality reduction, tumour type classification, multi-omics integration, demographic and clinical feature reconstruction, and survival prediction. The framework outperformed other methods on all three types of downstream tasks and achieved better performance with the multi-task strategy compared to training them individually. OmiEmbed is a powerful and unified framework that can be widely adapted to various applications of high-dimensional omics data and has great potential to facilitate more accurate and personalised clinical decision making.

Multi-Task Deep Learning Model for Classification of Dental Implant Brand and Treatment Stage Using Dental Panoramic Radiograph Images.

Project description:It is necessary to accurately identify dental implant brands and the stage of treatment to ensure efficient care. Thus, the purpose of this study was to use multi-task deep learning to investigate a classifier that categorizes implant brands and treatment stages from dental panoramic radiographic images. For objective labeling, 9767 dental implant images of 12 implant brands and treatment stages were obtained from the digital panoramic radiographs of patients who underwent procedures at Kagawa Prefectural Central Hospital, Japan, between 2005 and 2020. Five deep convolutional neural network (CNN) models (ResNet18, 34, 50, 101 and 152) were evaluated. The accuracy, precision, recall, specificity, F1 score, and area under the curve score were calculated for each CNN. We also compared the multi-task and single-task accuracies of brand classification and implant treatment stage classification. Our analysis revealed that the larger the number of parameters and the deeper the network, the better the performance for both classifications. Multi-tasking significantly improved brand classification on all performance indicators, except recall, and significantly improved all metrics in treatment phase classification. Using CNNs conferred high validity in the classification of dental implant brands and treatment stages. Furthermore, multi-task learning facilitated analysis accuracy.
