AbstractMachine learning methods are being used routinely by scientists in many research areas, typically requiring significant statistical and programing knowledge. Here we present ClassificaIO, an open-source Python graphical user interface for machine learning classification for the scikit-learn Python library. ClassificaIO provides an interactive way to train, validate, and test data on a range of classification algorithms. The software enables fast comparisons within and across classifiers, and facilitates uploading and exporting of trained models, and both validation and testing data results. ClassificaIO aims to provide not only a research utility, but also an educational tool that can enable biomedical and other researchers with minimal machine learning background to apply machine learning algorithms to their research in an interactive point-and-click way. The ClassificaIO package is available for download and installation through the Python Package Index (PyPI) (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ClassificaIO) and it can be deployed using the “import” function in Python once the package is installed. The application is distributed under an MIT license and the source code is publicly available for download (for Mac OS X, Linux and Microsoft Windows) through PyPI and GitHub (http://github.com/gmiaslab/ClassificaIO, andhttps://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1320465).

AbstractBackgroundWith the increasing use of unstructured text in electronic health records, extracting useful related information has become a necessity. Text classification can be applied to extract patients’ medical history from clinical notes. However, the sparsity in clinical short notes, that is, excessively small word counts in the text, can lead to large classification errors. Previous studies demonstrated that natural language processing (NLP) can be useful in the text classification of clinical outcomes. We propose incorporating the knowledge from unlabeled data, as this may alleviate the problem of short noisy sparse text.ResultsThe software package SALTClass (short and long text classifier) is a machine learning NLP toolkit. It uses seven clustering algorithms, namely, latent Dirichlet allocation, K-Means, MiniBatchK-Means, BIRCH, MeanShift, DBScan, and GMM. Smoothing methods are applied to the resulting cluster information to enrich the representation of sparse text. For the subsequent prediction step, SALTClass can be used on either the original document-term matrix or in an enrichment pipeline. To this end, ten different supervised classifiers have also been integrated into SALTClass. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the SALTClass NLP toolkit in the identification of patients’ family history in a Dutch clinical cardiovascular text corpus from University Medical Center Utrecht, the Netherlands.ConclusionsThe considerable amount of unstructured short text in healthcare applications, particularly in clinical cardiovascular notes, has created an urgent need for tools that can parse specific information from text reports. Using machine learning algorithms for enriching short text can improve the representation for further applications.AvailabilitySALTClass can be downloaded as a Python package from Python Package Index (PyPI) website athttps://pypi.org/project/saltclassand from GitHub athttps://github.com/bagheria/saltclass.

Machine learning has become one of the foremost techniques used for extracting knowledge from large amounts of data. The programming expertise required to implement machine learning algorithms has led to the rise of software products that simplify the process. Many of these systems however, have sacrificed simplicity as they evolved and included more features. In this study, a machine learning software with a simple graphical user interface was developed with a special focus on enhancing usability. The system made use of basic graphical interface elements such as buttons and textboxes. Comparison of the system with other similar open-source tools revealed that the developed system showed an improvement in usability over the other tools.

Background: Antinuclear antibody pattern recognition is vital for autoimmune disease diagnosis but labor-intensive for manual interpretation. To develop an automated pattern recognition system, we established machine learning models based on the International Consensus on Antinuclear Antibody Patterns (ICAP) at a competent level, mixed patterns recognition, and evaluated their consistency with human reading. Methods: 51,694 human epithelial cells (HEp-2) cell images with patterns assigned by experienced medical technologists collected in a medical center were used to train six machine learning algorithms and were compared by their performance. Next, we choose the best performing model to test the consistency with five experienced readers and two beginners. Results: The mean F1 score in each classification of the best performing model was 0.86 evaluated by Testing Data 1. For the inter-observer agreement test on Testing Data 2, the average agreement was 0.849 (?) among five experienced readers, 0.844 between the best performing model and experienced readers, 0.528 between experienced readers and beginners. The results indicate that the proposed model outperformed beginners and achieved an excellent agreement with experienced readers. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that the developed model could reach an excellent agreement with experienced human readers using machine learning methods.

Native Chickens

A marker combination capable of classifying a specific chicken population could improve commercial value by increasing consumer confidence with respect to the origin of the population. This would facilitate the protection of native genetic resources in the market of each country. In this study, a total of 283 samples from 20 lines, which consisted of Korean native chickens, commercial native chickens, and commercial broilers with a layer population, were analyzed to determine the optimal marker combination comprising the minimum number of markers, using a 600 k high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. Machine learning algorithms, a genome-wide association study (GWAS), linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis, and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to distinguish a target (case) group for comparison with control chicken groups. In the processing of marker selection, a total of 47,303 SNPs were used for classifying chicken populations; 96 LD-pruned SNPs (50 SNPs per LD block) served as the best marker combination for target chicken classification. Moreover, 36, 44, and 8 SNPs were selected as the minimum numbers of markers by the AdaBoost (AB), Random Forest (RF), and Decision Tree (DT) machine learning classification models, which had accuracy rates of 99.6%, 98.0%, and 97.9%, respectively. The selected marker combinations increased the genetic distance and fixation index (Fst) values between the case and control groups, and they reduced the number of genetic components required, confirming that efficient classification of the groups was possible by using a small number of marker sets. In a verification study including additional chicken breeds and samples (12 lines and 182 samples), the accuracy did not significantly change, and the target chicken group could be clearly distinguished from the other populations. The GWAS, PCA, and machine learning algorithms used in this study can be applied efficiently, to determine the optimal marker combination with the minimum number of markers that can distinguish the target population among a large number of SNP markers.

The increased usage of the Internet and social networks allowed and enabled people to express their views, which have generated an increasing attention lately. Sentiment Analysis (SA) techniques are used to determine the polarity of information, either positive or negative, toward a given topic, including opinions. In this research, we have introduced a machine learning approach based on Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bayes (NB) and Random Forest (RF) classifiers, to find and classify extreme opinions in Arabic reviews. To achieve this, a dataset of 1500 Arabic reviews was collected from Google Play Store. In addition, a two-stage Classification process was applied to classify the reviews. In the first stage, we built a binary classifier to sort out positive from negative reviews. In the second stage, however we applied a binary classification mechanism based on a set of proposed rules that distinguishes extreme positive from positive reviews, and extreme negative from negative reviews. Four major experiments were conducted with a total of 10 different sub experiments to fulfill the two-stage process using different X-validation schemas and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency feature selection method. Obtained results have indicated that SVM was the best during the first stage classification with 30% testing data, and NB was the best with 20% testing data. The results of the second stage classification indicated that SVM has scored better results in identifying extreme positive reviews when dealing with the positive dataset with an overall accuracy of 68.7% and NB showed better accuracy results in identifying extreme negative reviews when dealing with the negative dataset, with an overall accuracy of 72.8%.

We introduce a Bayesian neural network model that can accurately predict not only if, but also when a compact planetary system with three or more planets will go unstable. Our model, trained directly from short N-body time series of raw orbital elements, is more than two orders of magnitude more accurate at predicting instability times than analytical estimators, while also reducing the bias of existing machine learning algorithms by nearly a factor of three. Despite being trained on compact resonant and near-resonant three-planet configurations, the model demonstrates robust generalization to both nonresonant and higher multiplicity configurations, in the latter case outperforming models fit to that specific set of integrations. The model computes instability estimates up to 105 times faster than a numerical integrator, and unlike previous efforts provides confidence intervals on its predictions. Our inference model is publicly available in the SPOCK (https://github.com/dtamayo/spock) package, with training code open sourced (https://github.com/MilesCranmer/bnn_chaos_model).

Abstract American mink (Neovison vison) is the major source of fur for the fur industries worldwide and Aleutian disease (AD) is causing severe financial losses to the mink industry. Different methods have been used to diagnose the AD in mink, but the combination of several methods can be the most appropriate approach for the selection of AD resilient mink. Iodine agglutination test (IAT) and counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) methods are commonly employed in test-and-remove strategy; meanwhile, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and packed-cell volume (PCV) methods are complementary. However, using multiple methods are expensive; and therefore, hindering the corrected use of AD tests in selection. This research presented the assessments of the AD classification based on machine learning algorithms. The Aleutian disease was tested on 1,830 individuals using these tests in an AD positive mink farm (Canadian Centre for Fur Animal Research, NS, Canada). The accuracy of classification for CIEP was evaluated based on the sex information, and IAT, ELISA and PCV test results implemented in seven machine learning classification algorithms (Random Forest, Artificial Neural Networks, C50Tree, Naive Bayes, Generalized Linear Models, Boost, and Linear Discriminant Analysis) using the Caret package in R. The accuracy of prediction varied among the methods. Overall, the Random Forest was the best-performing algorithm for the current dataset with an accuracy of 0.89 in the training data and 0.94 in the testing data. Our work demonstrated the utility and relative ease of using machine learning algorithms to assess the CIEP information, and consequently reducing the cost of AD tests. However, further works require the inclusion of production and reproduction information in the models and extension of phenotypic collection to increase the accuracy of current methods.
