Project description:Here we present the CLASH analysis of AGO2 in HEK293 cells to address the small RNA repertoire and uncover their physiological targets. We developed an optimized bioinformatics approach of chimeric read identification to detect chimeras of high confidence. We report thousands of Ago2 target sites driven by microRNAs, but also a substantial number of Ago2 ‘drivers’ derived from fragments of other small RNAs such as tRNAs, snoRNAs, rRNAs and others. Target validation of several miRNAs delivered by 3’ Quantseq RNA-Seq.

Project description:Leukemia is a cancer of blood cells in the bone marrow that affects both children and adolescents. The rapid growth of unusual lymphocyte cells leads to bone marrow failure, which may slow down the production of new blood cells, and hence increases patient morbidity and mortality. Age is a crucial clinical factor in leukemia diagnosis, since if leukemia is diagnosed in the early stages, it is highly curable. Incidence is increasing globally, as around 412,000 people worldwide are likely to be diagnosed with some type of leukemia, of which acute lymphoblastic leukemia accounts for approximately 12% of all leukemia cases worldwide. Thus, the reliable and accurate detection of normal and malignant cells is of major interest. Automatic detection with computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) models can assist medics, and can be beneficial for the early detection of leukemia. In this paper, a single center study, we aimed to build an aggregated deep learning model for Leukemic B-lymphoblast classification. To make a reliable and accurate deep learner, data augmentation techniques were applied to tackle the limited dataset size, and a transfer learning strategy was employed to accelerate the learning process, and further improve the performance of the proposed network. The results show that our proposed approach was able to fuse features extracted from the best deep learning models, and outperformed individual networks with a test accuracy of 96.58% in Leukemic B-lymphoblast diagnosis.

Project description:This study aimed to assess the utility of optic nerve head (onh) en-face images, captured with scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (slo) during standard optical coherence tomography (oct) imaging of the posterior segment, and demonstrate the potential of deep learning (dl) ensemble method that operates in a low data regime to differentiate glaucoma patients from healthy controls. The two groups of subjects were initially categorized based on a range of clinical tests including measurements of intraocular pressure, visual fields, oct derived retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness and dilated stereoscopic examination of onh. 227 slo images of 227 subjects (105 glaucoma patients and 122 controls) were used. A new task-specific convolutional neural network architecture was developed for slo image-based classification. To benchmark the results of the proposed method, a range of classifiers were tested including five machine learning methods to classify glaucoma based on rnfl thickness-a well-known biomarker in glaucoma diagnostics, ensemble classifier based on inception v3 architecture, and classifiers based on features extracted from the image. The study shows that cross-validation dl ensemble based on slo images achieved a good discrimination performance with up to 0.962 of balanced accuracy, outperforming all of the other tested classifiers.

Project description:Plankton are effective indicators of environmental change and ecosystem health in freshwater habitats, but collection of plankton data using manual microscopic methods is extremely labor-intensive and expensive. Automated plankton imaging offers a promising way forward to monitor plankton communities with high frequency and accuracy in real-time. Yet, manual annotation of millions of images proposes a serious challenge to taxonomists. Deep learning classifiers have been successfully applied in various fields and provided encouraging results when used to categorize marine plankton images. Here, we present a set of deep learning models developed for the identification of lake plankton, and study several strategies to obtain optimal performances, which lead to operational prescriptions for users. To this aim, we annotated into 35 classes over 17900 images of zooplankton and large phytoplankton colonies, detected in Lake Greifensee (Switzerland) with the Dual Scripps Plankton Camera. Our best models were based on transfer learning and ensembling, which classified plankton images with 98% accuracy and 93% F1 score. When tested on freely available plankton datasets produced by other automated imaging tools (ZooScan, Imaging FlowCytobot, and ISIIS), our models performed better than previously used models. Our annotated data, code and classification models are freely available online.

Project description:Subjective well-being is a comprehensive psychological indicator for measuring quality of life. Studies have found that emotional measurement methods and measurement accuracy are important for well-being-related research. Academic emotion is an emotion description in the field of education. The subjective well-being of learners in an online learning environment can be studied by analyzing academic emotions. However, in a large-scale online learning environment, it is extremely challenging to classify learners' academic emotions quickly and accurately for specific comment aspects. This study used literature analysis and data pre-analysis to build a dimensional classification system of academic emotion aspects for students' comments in an online learning environment, as well as to develop an aspect-oriented academic emotion automatic recognition method, including an aspect-oriented convolutional neural network (A-CNN) and an academic emotion classification algorithm based on the long short-term memory with attention mechanism (LSTM-ATT) and the attention mechanism. The experiments showed that this model can provide quick and effective identification. The A-CNN model accuracy on the test set was 89%, and the LSTM-ATT model accuracy on the test set was 71%. This research provides a new method for the measurement of large-scale online academic emotions, as well as support for research related to students' well-being in online learning environments.

Project description:Lens-free digital in-line holography (LDIH) is a promising microscopic tool that overcomes several drawbacks (e.g., limited field of view) of traditional lens-based microcopy. However, extensive computation is required to reconstruct object images from the complex diffraction patterns produced by LDIH. This limits LDIH utility for point-of-care applications, particularly in resource limited settings. We describe a deep transfer learning (DTL) based approach to process LDIH images in the context of cellular analyses. Specifically, we captured holograms of cells labeled with molecular-specific microbeads and trained neural networks to classify these holograms without reconstruction. Using raw holograms as input, the trained networks were able to classify individual cells according to the number of cell-bound microbeads. The DTL-based approach including a VGG19 pretrained network showed robust performance with experimental data. Combined with the developed DTL approach, LDIH could be realized as a low-cost, portable tool for point-of-care diagnostics.

Project description:With the rapid increase in encrypted traffic in the network environment and the increasing proportion of encrypted traffic, the study of encrypted traffic classification has become increasingly important as a part of traffic analysis. At present, in a closed environment, the classification of encrypted traffic has been fully studied, but these classification models are often only for labeled data and difficult to apply in real environments. To solve these problems, we propose a transferable model called CBD with generalization abilities for encrypted traffic classification in real environments. The overall structure of CBD can be generally described as a of one-dimension CNN and the encoder of Transformer. The model can be pre-trained with unlabeled data to understand the basic characteristics of encrypted traffic data, and be transferred to other datasets to complete the classification of encrypted traffic from the packet level and the flow level. The performance of the proposed model was evaluated on a public dataset. The results showed that the performance of the CBD model was better than the baseline methods, and the pre-training method can improve the classification ability of the model.

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.
