However, some images from ImageNet may be fundamentally different from medical images in feature representation and lead to the negative transfer effects. To deal with this issue, we propose a novel strategy based on evidence theory to select reliable instances from ImageNet for medical image domain adaptation. Specifically, we formulate an evidential mass function to measure the ignorance and reliability of the images from ImageNet with respect to the classification tasks of medical images. Through selecting reliable instances with low ignorance degree from ImageNet, we can enhance the transfer performances of deep neural networks in medical image domain adaptation. Moreover, the proposed data selection strategy is independent of specific learning algorithm and can be viewed as a common preprocessing technique. Numerical experiments on tomography images, X-Ray images, and ultrasound images are given to comprehensively demonstrate the effectiveness of the selection strategy.","PeriodicalId":210337,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116826772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we propose a contrastive meta-learning (CML) framework to address these issues. We define drug-anchored tasks and target-anchored tasks, which enables the employment of meta-learning to accumulate common knowledge from various tasks so as to adapt to new tasks faster and better. Besides, we utilize a task inequality loss to measure task disparities and enhance model sensitivities to new tasks. We also propose a contrastive learning block (CLB) to explore correlations among drug-target pairs across tasks, which facilitates DTA prediction performance improvements.

Based on the time and cost of validating miRNA-disease associations in traditional medicine clinical experiments, using multiple biological datasets to predict potential miRNA-disease associations (MDAs) has become a hot topic in the field of biological research in recent years. This paper develops a novel model of MDA-RGCN based on a multi-channel graph convolutional network and graph attention for MDAs prediction. Based on graph theory, this study treats MDAs prediction as a node classification task. To learn the topology and various interactions between feature graph nodes of various strengths, we employ two independent graph attention networks, which increases training efficiency and accuracy. In order to learn information that is shared by both graphs, we employ a GCN with a shared weight matrix simultaneously. Comprehensive experiments reveal that the prediction performance of MDA-RGCN excels other more sophisticated models for MDAs prediction. Furthermore, we further confirmed the predictive ability of MDA-RGCN to identify potential disease-related miRNAs by selecting two human diseases for case study.","PeriodicalId":210337,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124562163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Discovering potential virus-receptor interactions may give insight into potential strategies for treating viral infectious diseases. Most of computational methods for the virus-receptor interaction prediction are mainly based on sequence information. They neither makes effective use of structure information nor effectively handles with missing values of multiple similarities. In addition, the Link Prediction via linear optimization (LP) only uses contribution of neighbors of a node and ignores contribution of neighbors of another node on the network link. In this article, we present a virus-receptor interaction prediction method (MVLP) based on Multi-View learning and LP via contributions of all neighbors of two nodes on the network link. First, missing values of the receptor secondary structure similarity, the receptor conserved domain secondary structure similarity, the viral protein secondary structure similarity, the viral protein sequence similarity and the viral genome sequence similarity are updated by the gaussian radial basis function (GRB). To improve these similarities, we fuse updated and initial values of each similarity with multi-view learning, respectively. Next, three virus values and receptor similarities are integrated into the comprehensive virus and receptor similarity by the averaging method, respectively. Finally, LP based on contribution of neighbors of two nodes is presented for the virus-receptor interaction prediction. To evaluate the ability of MVLP, we compare MVLP with four related methods in 10 fold Cross-Validation (10CV). Computational results indicate that an average Area Under Curve (AUC) values of MVLP on viralReceptor sup and viralReceptor are 0.9427 and 0.9444, respectively, which are superior to other related methods. Furthermore, a case study also demonstrates the ability of MVLP in practice.","PeriodicalId":210337,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129902971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the process of EEG signal collection requires lots of expertise, which makes the amount of labeled EEG data very limited. It constrains the performance of supervised methods which require large amounts of annotated data in some sense. Self-supervised learning paradigm, which aims to train models that do not require any labeled samples can make full use of a large amount of unlabeled EEG samples. But a drawback is that they fall short of learning class discriminative sample representations since no labeled information is utilized during training. To solve the above problem, we propose a semi-supervised model, named consistency regularization enhanced graph attention network (CR-GAT) for EEG emotion recognition. The CR-GAT mainly consists of three modules, namely the feature extraction and fusion (FEF) module, the feature graph building and augment (GBA) module as well as the consistency regularization (CR) module. Specifically, t he F EFm odule is to extract task-specific EEG features and highlight the most valuable features from the EEG signals. The GBA module is to build a sample-related graph representation of the EEG feature set. The CR module, which draws support samples from labeled samples and anchor samples from the entire sample set, intends to minimize the difference between the predicted class distributions from different graphs constructed by multi-views of the sample set to push samples that belong to the same class to be grouped together.

Most existing approaches typically employ a global learning strategy and use CNN with small convolutional kernels for thoracic disease classification. However, irrelevant noisy regions may affect the global learning strategy; small convolutional kernels can only capture fewer discriminant features. To address the above problems, we construct a multi-feature fusion neural network (MFCNet), which can fully use the global and weighted local features. Specifically, the global features are first generated by the global branch. Weighted local features are generated by multiplying the global feature and the heart-lung region mask identified by the Lung-heart Region Generator (LHRG). At last, the fusion branch integrates the global and weighted local features to complement the lost discriminative feature of the global branch and the local branch, thus enabling a better feature presentation for thoracic disease classification.
