COFFEE: consensus single cell-type specific inference for gene regulatory networks.

The inference of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is crucial to understanding the regulatory mechanisms that govern biological processes. GRNs may be represented as edges in a graph, and hence, it have been inferred computationally for scRNA-seq data. A wisdom of crowds approach to integrate edges from several GRNs to create one composite GRN has demonstrated improved performance when compared with individual algorithm implementations on bulk RNA-seq and microarray data. In an effort to extend this approach to scRNA-seq data, we present COFFEE (COnsensus single cell-type speciFic inFerence for gEnE regulatory networks), a Borda voting-based consensus algorithm that integrates information from 10 established GRN inference methods. We conclude that COFFEE has improved performance across synthetic, curated, and experimental datasets when compared with baseline methods. Additionally, we show that a modified version of COFFEE can be leveraged to improve performance on newer cell-type specific GRN inference methods. Overall, our results demonstrate that consensus-based methods with pertinent modifications continue to be valuable for GRN inference at the single cell level. While COFFEE is benchmarked on 10 algorithms, it is a flexible strategy that can incorporate any set of GRN inference algorithms according to user preference. A Python implementation of COFFEE may be found on GitHub: https://github.com/lodimk2/coffee.

Holographic image denoising for dense droplet field using conditional diffusion model.

The Letter delves into an approach to holographic image denoising, drawing inspiration from the generative paradigm. It introduces a conditional diffusion model framework that effectively suppresses twin-image noises and speckle noises in dense particle fields with a large depth of field (DOF). Specific training and inference configurations are meticulously outlined. For evaluation, the method is tested using calibration dot board data and droplet field data, encompassing gel atomization captured via inline holography and aviation kerosene swirl spray through off-axis holography. The performance is assessed using three distinct metrics. The metric outcomes, along with representative examples, robustly demonstrate its superior noise reduction, detail preservation, and generalization capabilities when compared to two other methods. The proposed method not only pioneers the field of generative holographic image denoising but also highlights its potential for industrial applications, given its reduced dependency on high-quality training labels.

Nonlinear encoding in diffractive information processing using linear optical materials

Nonlinear encoding of optical information can be achieved using various forms of data representation. Here, we analyze the performances of different nonlinear information encoding strategies that can be employed in diffractive optical processors based on linear materials and shed light on their utility and performance gaps compared to the state-of-the-art digital deep neural networks. For a comprehensive evaluation, we used different datasets to compare the statistical inference performance of simpler-to-implement nonlinear encoding strategies that involve, e.g., phase encoding, against data repetition-based nonlinear encoding strategies. We show that data repetition within a diffractive volume (e.g., through an optical cavity or cascaded introduction of the input data) causes the loss of the universal linear transformation capability of a diffractive optical processor. Therefore, data repetition-based diffractive blocks cannot provide optical analogs to fully connected or convolutional layers commonly employed in digital neural networks. However, they can still be effectively trained for specific inference tasks and achieve enhanced accuracy, benefiting from the nonlinear encoding of the input information. Our results also reveal that phase encoding of input information without data repetition provides a simpler nonlinear encoding strategy with comparable statistical inference accuracy to data repetition-based diffractive processors. Our analyses and conclusions would be of broad interest to explore the push-pull relationship between linear material-based diffractive optical systems and nonlinear encoding strategies in visual information processors.

Effects of Grammatical Gender on Gender Inferences: Experimental Evidence From Italian Common Gender Nouns

Recent psycholinguistic research has focused on how different grammatical gender marking strategies affect people's mental representation of referents’ gender. Such works particularly explored how explicitly encoded linguistic elements, such as grammatical gender markers, may drive the inferential process as attentional clues. Results of reading comprehension tasks in French and German have shown that the explicit encoding of masculine gender in plural forms of role nouns often leads to a male bias, a specific masculine inference corresponding to the grammatical gender clue, even when the masculine form was intended as generic, thus including women and men. Moreover, comparing generic masculine forms with gender-fair alternatives revealed that the latter significantly reduce this male bias. The present study examines the impact of three gender marking strategies on the construction of generic mental representations. Indeed, the experiment tested generic masculine against two gender-fair forms (split masculine/feminine forms and ambiguous syntactic reformulations) among 38 Italian speakers. No significant effect was found in generating a generic mental representation through form manipulation. However, ambiguous syntactic reformulation realised by presenting target nouns from the Italian common gender noun class and through the neutralisation of determiners’ gender, increased the probability of a male-specific inference. Additionally, a keen interest in gender-fair language topics was linked to longer reaction times, indicating a higher cognitive effort during the inference process.

Cell-type specific inference from bulk RNA-sequencing data by integrating single cell reference profiles via EPIC-unmix.

Cell type specific (CTS) analysis is essential to reveal biological insights obscured in bulk tissue data. However, single-cell (sc) or single-nuclei (sn) resolution data are still cost-prohibitive for large-scale samples. Thus, computational methods to perform deconvolution from bulk tissue data are highly valuable. We here present EPIC-unmix, a novel two-step empirical Bayesian method integrating reference sc/sn RNA-seq data and bulk RNA-seq data from target samples to enhance the accuracy of CTS inference. We demonstrate through comprehensive simulations across three tissues that EPIC-unmix achieved 4.6% - 109.8% higher accuracy compared to alternative methods. By applying EPIC-unmix to human bulk brain RNA-seq data from the ROSMAP and MSBB cohorts, we identified multiple genes differentially expressed between Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases versus controls in a CTS manner, including 57.4% novel genes not identified using similar sample size sc/snRNA-seq data, indicating the power of our in-silico approach. Among the 6-69% overlapping, 83%-100% are in consistent direction with those from sc/snRNA-seq data, supporting the reliability of our findings. EPIC-unmix inferred CTS expression profiles similarly empowers CTS eQTL analysis. Among the novel eQTLs, we highlight a microglia eQTL for AD risk gene AP3B2, obscured in bulk and missed by sc/snRNA-seq based eQTL analysis. The variant resides in a microglia-specific cCRE, forming chromatin loop with AP3B2 promoter region in microglia. Taken together, we believe EPIC-unmix will be a valuable tool to enable more powerful CTS analysis.

USE OF NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUES TO PREDICT PATIENT SELECTION FOR TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY: RESULTS FROM THE AI TO REVOLUTIONISE THE PATIENT CARE PATHWAY IN HIP AND KNEE ARTHROPLASTY (ARCHERY) PROJECT

To examine whether Natural Language Processing (NLP) using a state-of-the-art clinically based Large Language Model (LLM) could predict patient selection for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA), across a range of routinely available clinical text sources.Data pre-processing and analyses were conducted according to the Ai to Revolutionise the patient Care pathway in Hip and Knee arthroplasty (ARCHERY) project protocol (https://www.researchprotocols.org/2022/5/e37092/). Three types of deidentified Scottish regional clinical free text data were assessed: Referral letters, radiology reports and clinic letters. NLP algorithms were based on the GatorTron model, a Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) based LLM trained on 82 billion words of de-identified clinical text. Three specific inference tasks were performed: assessment of the base GatorTron model, assessment after model-fine tuning, and external validation.There were 3911, 1621 and 1503 patient text documents included from the sources of referral letters, radiology reports and clinic letters respectively. All letter sources displayed significant class imbalance, with only 15.8%, 24.9%, and 5.9% of patients linked to the respective text source documentation having undergone surgery. Untrained model performance was poor, with F1 scores (harmonic mean of precision and recall) of 0.02, 0.38 and 0.09 respectively. This did however improve with model training, with mean scores (range) of 0.39 (0.31–0.47), 0.57 (0.48–0.63) and 0.32 (0.28–0.39) across the 5 folds of cross-validation. Performance deteriorated on external validation across all three groups but remained highest for the radiology report cohort.Even with further training on a large cohort of routinely collected free-text data a clinical LLM fails to adequately perform clinical inference in NLP tasks regarding identification of those selected to undergo THA. This likely relates to the complexity and heterogeneity of free-text information and the way that patients are determined to be surgical candidates.

Colour Passing Revisited: Lifted Model Construction with Commutative Factors

Lifted probabilistic inference exploits symmetries in a probabilistic model to allow for tractable probabilistic inference with respect to domain sizes. To apply lifted inference, a lifted representation has to be obtained, and to do so, the so-called colour passing algorithm is the state of the art. The colour passing algorithm, however, is bound to a specific inference algorithm and we found that it ignores commutativity of factors while constructing a lifted representation. We contribute a modified version of the colour passing algorithm that uses logical variables to construct a lifted representation independent of a specific inference algorithm while at the same time exploiting commutativity of factors during an offline-step. Our proposed algorithm efficiently detects more symmetries than the state of the art and thereby drastically increases compression, yielding significantly faster online query times for probabilistic inference when the resulting model is applied.

The Image Calculator: 10x Faster Image-AI Inference by Replacing JPEG with Self-designing Storage Format

Numerous applications today rely on artificial intelligence over images. Image AI is, however, extremely expensive. In particular, the inference cost of image AI dominates the end-to-end cost. We observe that the image storage format lies at the root of the problem. Images today are predominantly stored in JPEG format. JPEG is a storage format designed for the human eye; it maximally compresses images without distorting the components of an image that are visible to the human eye. However, our observation is that during image AI, images are "seen'' by algorithms, not humans. In addition, every AI application is different regarding which data components of the images are the most relevant. We present the Image Calculator, a self-designing image storage format that adapts to the given AI task, i.e., the specific neural network, the dataset, and the applications' specific accuracy, inference time, and storage requirements. Contrary to the state-of-the-art, the Image Calculator does not use a fixed storage format like JPEG. Instead, it designs and constructs a new storage format tailored to the context. It does so by constructing a massive design space of candidate storage formats from first principles, within which it searches efficiently using composite performance models (inference time, accuracy, storage). This way, it leverages the given AI task's unique characteristics to compress the data maximally. We evaluate the Image Calculator across a diverse set of data, image analysis tasks, AI models, and hardware. We show that the Image Calculator can generate image storage formats that reduce inference time by up to 14.2x and storage by up to 8.2x with a minimal loss in accuracy or gain, compared to JPEG and its state-of-the-art variants.

AovBay: An R Package for Application and Visualization of Parametric Non-parametric and Bayesian ANOVA

The analysis of variance is a statistical technique widely used in the design of experiments and different research areas. It has been modeled using a classical or frequentist approach. With the computational power that is currently available, the Bayesian approach is an essential statistical tool related to hypothesis testing. However, conformity with classical techniques, ignorance of Bayesian statistics, and lack of easy-to-use software are obstacles to its frequent application. In this work, the use of a reproducible statistical package in R is proposed. It presents options to perform an analysis of variance in a classical (frequentist) and Bayesian way when the assumptions of the frequentist approach are not met or when a level of more specific inference such as quantifying the evidence provided by a data set for a given hypothesis, with the possibility of contributing to the understanding of the rejection or not of the statistical hypotheses raised, through interactive graphics presented in an emerging Shiny panel.

Leveraging synthetic lethality to uncover potential therapeutic target in gastric cancer.

Since trastuzumab was approved in 2012 for the first-line treatment of gastric cancer (GC), no significant advancement in GC targeted therapies has occurred. Synthetic lethality refers to the concept that simultaneous dysfunction of a pair of genes results in a lethal effect on cells, while the loss of an individual gene does not cause this effect. Through exploiting synthetic lethality, novel targeted therapies can be developed for the individualized treatment of GC. In this study, we proposed a computational strategy named Gastric cancer Specific Synthetic Lethality inference (GSSL) to identify synthetic lethal interactions in GC. GSSL analysis was used to infer probable synthetic lethality in GC using four accessible clinical datasets. In addition, prediction results were confirmed by experiments. GSSL analysis identified a total of 34 candidate synthetic lethal pairs, which included 33 unique targets. Among the synthetic lethal gene pairs, TP53-CHEK1 was selected for further experimental validation. Both computational and experimental results indicated that inhibiting CHEK1 could be a potential therapeutic strategy for GC patients with TP53 mutation. Meanwhile, in vitro experimental validation of two novel synthetic lethal pairs TP53-AURKB and ARID1A-EP300 further proved the universality and reliability of GSSL. Collectively, GSSL has been shown to be a reliable and feasible method for comprehensive analysis of inferring synthetic lethal interactions of GC, which may offer novel insight into the precision medicine and individualized treatment of GC.

Nahdlatul Ulama's Ijtihad Method in Fatwa: Analysis of The Content of Legal Decisions and Their Validity in Indonesia

This research aimed to investigate the method of inference in Nahdatul Ulama Scholars to issue fatwas regarding some issues in Indonesia. This research applied the qualitative method to collect data for looking into the topic and using a content analysis approach to analyze the legal decision of Nahdatul Ulama scholars and its validity as a product of fatwa. The results show that the inference done by Nahdatul Ulama scholars did not correspond to the belief done by the Muslim scholars in the past era due to their shortcomings in fulfilling the requirement of Mujtahid Muthlaq. This research also reveals that their method can be categorized as ijtihad jama’i, and the validity of the fatwas was significant enough for the Indonesian Muslim society to perform their daily ibadah or muamalah activities. This research contributes to the existing body of literature by providing insights into the specific inference method employed in Indonesia. It focuses on the influence of fatwas issued by scholars affiliated with Nahdatul Ulama, highlighting their significant following among ordinary individuals associated with this organization.

Abstract 5421: Constructing the largest-scale knowledge graph using all PubMed abstracts and its application for highly specific and accurate knowledge retrieval

Abstract Most of the biomedical knowledge the research community has acquired during the past few decades has been deposited in scientific literature as unstructured text. Converting the unstructured text into the structured form will enable novel methodologies and applications for scientific discovery that can fully harness the power of the existing knowledge. To this end, two fundamental questions need to be addressed: named entity recognition (NER) and relation extraction (RE). NER deals with identifying the concepts or entities in texts, such as diseases, genes/proteins, chemical compounds, etc. while RE aims to extract the relations among these entities. Together, the extracted information forms a knowledge graph (KG) where the nodes are entities in the texts and the edges represent their relationships. KGs can link concepts within existing research to allow researchers to find connections that may have been difficult to discover without them. The LitCoin Natural Language Processing (NLP) Challenge was recently organized by NCATS of NIH and NASA to spur innovation by rewarding the most creative and high-impact uses of biomedical text to create KGs. Our team participated in the challenge and ranked first place. We have applied the methods we developed for the LitCoin NLP challenge to all PubMed abstracts and constructed the largest-scale biomedical KG to date. We show that powerful and versatile query functions can be implemented on top of the KG to enable highly specific and accurate knowledge retrieval and inference of causal and indirect relationships.

Performance-Efficiency Comparisons of Channel Attention Modules for ResNets

Attention modules can be added to neural network architectures to improve performance. This work presents an extensive comparison between several efficient attention modules for image classification and object detection, in addition to proposing a novel Attention Bias module with lower computational overhead. All measured attention modules have been efficiently re-implemented, which allows an objective comparison and evaluation of the relationship between accuracy and inference time. Our measurements show that single-image inference time increases far more (5–50%) than the increase in FLOPs suggests (0.2–3%) for a limited gain in accuracy, making computation cost an important selection criterion. Despite this increase in inference time, adding an attention module can outperform a deeper baseline ResNet in both speed and accuracy. Finally, we investigate the potential of adding attention modules to pretrained networks and show that fine-tuning is possible and superior to training from scratch. The choice of the best attention module strongly depends on the specific ResNet architecture, input resolution, batch size and inference framework.

AN REVIEW OF THEATRE'S SERVICES IN THE PROMOTION OF URDU COUPLETS

Doha is something like “Matla” –an opening couplet 0f a ghazal- characterized by spontaneity set in a particularly simplistic and pastoral life. Both of its lines rhyme with each other and they balance in weight. Doha enjoys a peculiar field of relevance. A definite form, specific inference, and dedicated language make integral parts of a Doha. This beautiful genre of literature flourished in the hands of religious enthusiasts like Sofis, Sunnats, and Sadhus. However, this progress of Doha is heavily indebted to an all-times-active institution of our society called theatre proper. Starting right from “Inder Saba” by Amanat to the works of Agha Hashar Kashmiri, we find indelible traces of Doha in these works. This article sifts out those traces of Doha in the works of our illustrious Dramatists. Besides a brief history of Urdu Theatre, this article will afford a short introduction to the great veterans whose works will be discussed here in Literature for Children. It made the history of children’s literature.

Specificity of association in epidemiology

The epidemiologist Bradford Hill famously argued that in epidemiology, specificity of association (roughly, the fact that an environmental or behavioral risk factor is associated with just one or at most a few medical outcomes) is strong evidence of causation. Prominent epidemiologists have dismissed Hill’s claim on the ground that it relies on a dubious `one-cause one effect’ model of disease causation. The paper examines this methodological controversy, and argues that specificity considerations do have a useful role to play in causal inference in epidemiology. More precisely, I argue that specificity considerations help solve a pervasive inferential problem in contemporary epidemiology: the problem of determining whether an exposure-outcome correlation might be due to confounding by a social factor. This examination of specificity has interesting consequences for our understanding of the methodology of epidemiology. It highlights how the methodology of epidemiology relies on local tools designed to address specific inference problems peculiar to the discipline, and shows that observational causal inference in epidemiology can proceed with little prior knowledge of the causal structure of the phenomenon investigated. I also argue that specificity of association cannot (despite claims to the contrary) be entirely explained in terms of Woodward’s well-known concept of “one-to-one” causal specificity. This is because specificity as understood by epidemiologists depends on whether an exposure (or outcome) is associated with a `heterogeneous’ set of variables. This dimension of heterogeneity is not captured in Woodward’s notion, but is crucial for understanding the evidential import of specificity of association.

Identifying genes associated with brain volumetric differences through tissue specific transcriptomic inference from GWAS summary data

BackgroundBrain volume has been widely studied in the neuroimaging field, since it is an important and heritable trait associated with brain development, aging and various neurological and psychiatric disorders. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully identified numerous associations between genetic variants such as single nucleotide polymorphisms and complex traits like brain volume. However, it is unclear how these genetic variations influence regional gene expression levels, which may subsequently lead to phenotypic changes. S-PrediXcan is a tissue-specific transcriptomic data analysis method that can be applied to bridge this gap. In this work, we perform an S-PrediXcan analysis on GWAS summary data from two large imaging genetics initiatives, the UK Biobank and Enhancing Neuroimaging Genetics through Meta Analysis, to identify tissue-specific transcriptomic effects on two closely related brain volume measures: total brain volume (TBV) and intracranial volume (ICV).ResultsAs a result of the analysis, we identified 10 genes that are highly associated with both TBV and ICV. Nine out of 10 genes were found to be associated with TBV in another study using a different gene-based association analysis. Moreover, most of our discovered genes were also found to be correlated with multiple cognitive and behavioral traits. Further analyses revealed the protein–protein interactions, associated molecular pathways and biological functions that offer insight into how these genes function and interact with others.ConclusionsThese results confirm that S-PrediXcan can identify genes with tissue-specific transcriptomic effects on complex traits. The analysis also suggested novel genes whose expression levels are related to brain volumetric traits. This provides important insights into the genetic mechanisms of the human brain.

FastSpeechStyle: Fast, Emotion Controllable, and High-Quality Speech Synthesis

Non-autoregressive text-to-speech models such as Fastspeech2 can fast synthesize high-quality speech. This model also allows explicit control of the speech signal’s pitch, energy, and speed. However, controlling emotion while maintaining natural human-like speech is still a problem. In this work, we propose an expressive speech synthesis model that can synthesize high-quality speech with desired emotion. The proposed model includes two main components (1) Mel Emotion Encoder extracts emotion embedding from the Mel-spectrogram of audio, (2) the FastSpeechStyle, a non-autoregressive model, which is modified from vanilla Fastspeech2. The FastSpeechStyle used an Improved Conformer block, which replaces normal LayerNorm with Style Adaptive LayerNorm to “shift” and “scale” hidden features according to emotion embedding, instead of vanilla FFTBlock [Y. Ren, Y. Ruan, X. Tan, T. Qin, S. Zhao, Z. Zhao and T.-Y. Liu, Fastspeech: Fast, robust and controllable text to speech, Adv. Neural Inf. Process. Syst. 32 (2019)] to better model the local and global dependency in the acoustic model. We also propose a specific inference strategy to control the desired emotion of speech. The experimental results show that (1) The proposed model with improved Conformer achieved higher scores than the baseline model in all naturalness and emotion similarity scores; (2) The proposed model still maintains fast inference speed like the baseline model.

The emergence of entrepreneurship education programs in Indonesian higher education institutions

The purpose of this paper is to explore the status of entrepreneurship education programs (EEPs) in Indonesia, expanding similar papers on related Australian EEPs in 2019 and Malaysian EEPs in 2021. The aim is to review neoteric global best practice entrepreneurship education (EE), aligning context and specific inference of EEPs in Indonesian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) within dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystems. We provide a descriptive and emergent inquiry approach consisting of a review of prominent scholarship within the context of EEPs in Indonesia, together with a first of its kind quantitative component depicting the distribution of entrepreneurship spirit, EEPs, accelerators and entrepreneurship support services within HEIs. The paper highlights the sparse and inconsistent distribution across EEPs in Indonesia, further characterized by only a few dominant HEIs specializing in EE. The findings provide critical insights for HEI leaders, researchers, practitioners, and administrators wishing to enhance entrepreneurship and start-up resources at Indonesian HEIs. Further research, however, is recommended especially with respect to the efficacy and impact of these EEPs.

Beyond illness perception: the effects of psychological flexibility when coping with a chronic medical condition

ABSTRACT Several factors have been suggested to affect well-being among patients with a Chronic Medical Condition (CMC). Using self-report questionnaires, the effects of Illness Cognitions (IC) and Psychological Flexibility (PF) on well-being (Subjective Happiness) was explored in two groups of patients at a large medical center in Tel Aviv, Israel. This included 79 patients with psoriasis and 71 patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), the former representing moderate, and the latter severe, chronic medical conditions. Significant correlations between IC and PF, and well-being, were observed. In regression analyses, helplessness (an IC factor) and perceiving oneself as flexible (a PF factor) significantly contributed to well-being. Perceiving oneself as open and innovative (another PF factor) was associated with higher levels of well-being only among those with ESRD. This suggests that well-being is associated with both a specific cognitive inference regarding one’s medical condition (IC) and a general attitude about change (PF). Additionally, it appears that the association between PF and well-being changes across different CMCs, possibly depending on the CMC severity. Theoretical and clinical implications are discussed.

Potential Enteropathy and Malabsorption of Bile Acid in Successive Chronic Patients and Sugar Malabsorption of Dark Origin Watery Diarrhea

Aim: There are several explanations for constant loose watery intestines. There is still no positive logical evidence that the recommended experiments are carried out in the demonstrative care of patients with practical, loose bowels. In sequential patients with a constant watery loose intestine of dark root which meets Rome II requirements, it was important to test for gluten-touchy enteropathy, bile corrosive malabsorption and sugar malabsorption. Methods: In all events, 4 wk and stool weight>200 are included with a total of 62 patients with constant watery runs, who were defined by over 3 free or fluid entry production daily. Our current research was conducted at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore from March 2019 to February 2020. The accompanying experiments were done: (a) the genotyping of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 and the acquisition or testing of endoscopic biopsies from distal duodenum; (b) the repair check of the stomach by SeHCAT;(c) the inside finishing of the stomach; and (d), the ventilation test for hydrogen. The outcomes were controlled by gluten, or without sugar diet, or cholestyramine. Practical disease was evaluated if all experiments administered were normal or if no response existed after one year of growth to the explicit medication or were refused. Results: In 29 patients (46,4%), bile corrosion malabsorption in 12 patients (17.3%), gluten delicate enteropathy in 10 (17%), and bile corrosion in 2 patients (17,3%) and sugar malabsorption is believed to be the reason behind loose bowels. Twelve patients (18.6%) were also treated as practical intestinal disorder without a specific inference. Bowell looseness halted from 6.5 ± 0.4 to 1.6 ± 0.2 (P < 0.0006) every day, after clear therapy, and without backslides after the year of the growth. Conclusion: The discovery of practical infection in bowel loosening patients should be made with alert because, in general, there is a natural explanation for loosening the bowels.
