Abstract
The analysis of large amounts of data is important for the development of machine learning (ML) models. flowSim is the first algorithm designed to visualize, detect and remove highly redundant information in flow cytometry (FCM) training sets to decrease the computational time for training and increase the performance of ML algorithms by reducing overfitting. flowSim performs near duplicate image detection by combining community detection algorithms with the density analysis of the marker expression values. flowSim clustering compared to consensus manual clustering on a dataset composed of 160 images of bivariate FCM data had a mean Adjusted Rand Index of 0.90, demonstrating its efficiency in identifying similar patterns. flowSim selectively discarded near duplicate files in datasets constructed with known redundancy, and removed 92.6% of FCM images in a dataset of over 500,000 drawn from public repositories.
