Background The availability of large databases containing high resolution three-dimensional (3D) models of proteins in conjunction with functional annotation allows the exploitation of advanced supervised machine learning techniques for automatic protein function prediction. Methods In this work, novel shape features are extracted representing protein structure in the form of local (per amino acid) distribution of angles and amino acid distances, respectively. Each of the multi-channel feature maps is introduced into a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for function prediction and the outputs are fused through support vector machines or a correlation-based k-nearest neighbor classifier. Two different architectures are investigated employing either one CNN per multi-channel feature set, or one CNN per image channel. Results Cross validation experiments on single-functional enzymes (n = 44,661) from the PDB database achieved 90.1% correct classification, demonstrating an improvement over previous results on the same dataset when sequence similarity was not considered. Discussion The automatic prediction of protein function can provide quick annotations on extensive datasets opening the path for relevant applications, such as pharmacological target identification. The proposed method shows promise for structure-based protein function prediction, but sufficient data may not yet be available to properly assess the method’s performance on non-homologous proteins and thus reduce the confounding factor of evolutionary relationships.

Past Experiences

Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 has become a worldwide pandemic that affects all aspects of life; therefore, numerous organizations and open exploration foundations focus their efforts on research for viable therapeutics. Given past experiences and involvement in SARS, the essential focus has been the Spike protein, considered as the perfect objective for COVID-19 immunotherapies. Most of the vaccines being developed target the spike proteins because this protein covers the virus and helps it invade human cells. Methods: Applications of deep neural network is a quickly expanding field now reaching many areas including proteomics. Results: To be precise, convolutional neural networks have been used for identifying the functional role of amino acid sequences, because of its ability to give nearly accurate results for multi-label classification problems. Here we present a modified convolutional deep learning model that can  identify if a given amino acid sequence is a spike protein or not based on the length of the sequence and the function of the protein, that will be done  with a short execution time and a relatively small error rate. Conclusion: CNN is an efficient tool at supervised multilabel classification problems

Molecular recognition features (MoRFs) are key functional regions of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), which play important roles in the molecular interaction network of cells and are implicated in many serious human diseases. Identifying MoRFs is essential for both functional studies of IDPs and drug design. This study adopts the cutting-edge machine learning method of artificial intelligence to develop a powerful model for improving MoRFs prediction. We proposed a method, named as en_DCNNMoRF (ensemble deep convolutional neural network-based MoRF predictor). It combines the outcomes of two independent deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) classifiers that take advantage of different features. The first, DCNNMoRF1, employs position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) and 22 types of amino acid-related factors to describe protein sequences. The second, DCNNMoRF2, employs PSSM and 13 types of amino acid indexes to describe protein sequences. For both single classifiers, DCNN with a novel two-dimensional attention mechanism was adopted, and an average strategy was added to further process the output probabilities of each DCNN model. Finally, en_DCNNMoRF combined the two models by averaging their final scores. When compared with other well-known tools applied to the same datasets, the accuracy of the novel proposed method was comparable with that of state-of-the-art methods.

Segmentation Methods

Among the currently proposed brain segmentation methods, brain tumor segmentation methods based on traditional image processing and machine learning are not ideal enough. Therefore, deep learning-based brain segmentation methods are widely used. In the brain tumor segmentation method based on deep learning, the convolutional network model has a good brain segmentation effect. The deep convolutional network model has the problems of a large number of parameters and large loss of information in the encoding and decoding process. This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network fusion support vector machine algorithm (DCNN-F-SVM). The proposed brain tumor segmentation model is mainly divided into three stages. In the first stage, a deep convolutional neural network is trained to learn the mapping from image space to tumor marker space. In the second stage, the predicted labels obtained from the deep convolutional neural network training are input into the integrated support vector machine classifier together with the test images. In the third stage, a deep convolutional neural network and an integrated support vector machine are connected in series to train a deep classifier. Run each model on the BraTS dataset and the self-made dataset to segment brain tumors. The segmentation results show that the performance of the proposed model is significantly better than the deep convolutional neural network and the integrated SVM classifier.

Speech emotion recognition (SER) plays a significant role in human–machine interaction. Emotion recognition from speech and its precise classification is a challenging task because a machine is unable to understand its context. For an accurate emotion classification, emotionally relevant features must be extracted from the speech data. Traditionally, handcrafted features were used for emotional classification from speech signals; however, they are not efficient enough to accurately depict the emotional states of the speaker. In this study, the benefits of a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for SER are explored. For this purpose, a pretrained network is used to extract features from state-of-the-art speech emotional datasets. Subsequently, a correlation-based feature selection technique is applied to the extracted features to select the most appropriate and discriminative features for SER. For the classification of emotions, we utilize support vector machines, random forests, the k-nearest neighbors algorithm, and neural network classifiers. Experiments are performed for speaker-dependent and speaker-independent SER using four publicly available datasets: the Berlin Dataset of Emotional Speech (Emo-DB), Surrey Audio Visual Expressed Emotion (SAVEE), Interactive Emotional Dyadic Motion Capture (IEMOCAP), and the Ryerson Audio Visual Dataset of Emotional Speech and Song (RAVDESS). Our proposed method achieves an accuracy of 95.10% for Emo-DB, 82.10% for SAVEE, 83.80% for IEMOCAP, and 81.30% for RAVDESS, for speaker-dependent SER experiments. Moreover, our method yields the best results for speaker-independent SER with existing handcrafted features-based SER approaches.
