Image-level structural recognition is an important problem for many applications of computer vision such as autonomous vehicle control, scene understanding, and 3D TV. A novel method, using image features extracted by exploiting predefined templates, each associated with individual classifier, is proposed. The template that reflects the symmetric structure consisting of a number of components represents a stage—a rough structure of an image geometry. The following image features are used: a histogram of oriented gradient (HOG) features showing the overall object shape, colors representing scene information, the parameters of the Weibull distribution features, reflecting relations between image statistics and scene structure, and local binary pattern (LBP) and entropy (E) values representing texture and scene depth information. Each of the individual classifiers learns a discriminative model and their outcomes are fused together using sum rule for recognizing the global structure of an image. The proposed method achieves an 86.25% recognition accuracy on the stage dataset and a 92.58% recognition rate on the 15-scene dataset, both of which are significantly higher than the other state-of-the-art methods.

The article analyzes a number of methods of knowledge formation using various graph models, including oriented, undirected graphs with the same type of edges and graphs with multiple and different types of edges. This article shows the possibilities of using graphs to represent a three-level structure of knowledge in the field of complex technical systems modeling. In such a model, at the first level, data is formed in the form of unrelated graph vertices, at the second level – information presented by a related undirected graph, and at the third level – knowledge in the form of a set of graph paths. The proposed interpretation of the structure of knowledge allows to create new opportunities for analytical study of knowledge and information, their properties and relationships.

Gene-environment (G×E) interaction is critical for understanding the genetic basis of complex disease beyond genetic and environment main effects. In addition to existing tools for interaction studies, penalized variable selection emerges as a promising alternative for dissecting G×E interactions. Despite the success, variable selection is limited in terms of accounting for multidimensional measurements. Published variable selection methods cannot accommodate structured sparsity in the framework of integrating multiomics data for disease outcomes. In this paper, we have developed a novel variable selection method in order to integrate multi-omics measurements in G×E interaction studies. Extensive studies have already revealed that analyzing omics data across multi-platforms is not only sensible biologically, but also resulting in improved identification and prediction performance. Our integrative model can efficiently pinpoint important regulators of gene expressions through sparse dimensionality reduction, and link the disease outcomes to multiple effects in the integrative G×E studies through accommodating a sparse bi-level structure. The simulation studies show the integrative model leads to better identification of G×E interactions and regulators than alternative methods. In two G×E lung cancer studies with high dimensional multi-omics data, the integrative model leads to an improved prediction and findings with important biological implications.

Protein is an important component of all the cells and tissues of the human body and is the material basis of life. Its content, sequence, and spatial structure have a great impact on proteomics and human biology. It can reflect the important information of normal or pathophysiological processes and promote the development of new diagnoses and treatment methods. However, the current techniques of proteomics for protein analysis are limited by chemical modifications, large sample sizes, or cumbersome operations. Solving this problem requires overcoming huge challenges. Nanopore single molecule detection technology overcomes this shortcoming. As a new sensing technology, it has the advantages of no labeling, high sensitivity, fast detection speed, real-time monitoring, and simple operation. It is widely used in gene sequencing, detection of peptides and proteins, markers and microorganisms, and other biomolecules and metal ions. Therefore, based on the advantages of novel nanopore single-molecule detection technology, its application to protein sequence detection and structure recognition has also been proposed and developed. In this paper, the application of nanopore single-molecule detection technology in protein detection in recent years is reviewed, and its development prospect is investigated.

AbstractMachine learning has emerged as a powerful approach in materials discovery. Its major challenge is selecting features that create interpretable representations of materials, useful across multiple prediction tasks. We introduce an end-to-end machine learning model that automatically generates descriptors that capture a complex representation of a material’s structure and chemistry. This approach builds on computational topology techniques (namely, persistent homology) and word embeddings from natural language processing. It automatically encapsulates geometric and chemical information directly from the material system. We demonstrate our approach on multiple nanoporous metal–organic framework datasets by predicting methane and carbon dioxide adsorption across different conditions. Our results show considerable improvement in both accuracy and transferability across targets compared to models constructed from the commonly-used, manually-curated features, consistently achieving an average 25–30% decrease in root-mean-squared-deviation and an average increase of 40–50% in R2 scores. A key advantage of our approach is interpretability: Our model identifies the pores that correlate best to adsorption at different pressures, which contributes to understanding atomic-level structure–property relationships for materials design.
