Discovering discriminative graph patterns from gene expression data
2016
We consider the problem of mining gene expression data in order to single out interesting features characterizing healthy/unhealthy samples of an input dataset. We present an approach based on a network model of the input gene expression data, where there is a labelled graph for each sample. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to build a different graph for each sample and, then, to have a database of graphs for representing a sample set. Our main goal is that of singling out interesting differences between healthy and unhealthy samples, through the extraction of "discriminative patterns" among graphs belonging to the two different sample sets. Differently from the other…
SLFTD: A Subjective Logic Based Framework for Truth Discovery
2019
Finding truth from various conflicting candidate values provided by different data sources is called truth discovery, which is of vital importance in data integration. Several algorithms have been proposed in this area, which usually have similar procedure: iteratively inferring the truth and provider’s reliability on providing truth until converge. Therefore, an accurate provider’s reliability evaluation is essential. However, no work pays attention to “how reliable this provider continuously providing truth”. Therefore, we introduce subjective logic, which can record both (1) the provider’s reliability of generating truth, and (2) reliability of provider continuously doing so. Our propose…
A new approach to examine the relationships between sensory and gas chromatography-olfactometry data using generalized procrustes analysis applied to…
2003
Six French Chardonnay wines were submitted to both sensory and combined headspace/gas chromatography-olfactometry analyses. The detection frequencies allowed five hierarchical levels to be distinguished: P25, the odorant areas (OAs) having a detection frequencyor =25% (the complete olfactogram without the odor noise); P40,or =40%; P55,or =55%; P70,or =70%; and P85,or =85%. Moreover, the detection frequencies were analyzed to distinguish 21 discriminative OAs. Wines tested by sensory analysis and the headspace samples analyzed by gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) were described by a heterogeneous vocabulary distributed into nine overall classes of descriptors. The new statistical treatm…
An ensemble analysis of electromyographic activity during whole body pointing with the use of support vector machines.
2011
Import JabRef | WosArea Life Sciences and Biomedicine - Other Topics; International audience; We explored the use of support vector machines (SVM) in order to analyze the ensemble activities of 24 postural and focal muscles recorded during a whole body pointing task. Because of the large number of variables involved in motor control studies, such multivariate methods have much to offer over the standard univariate techniques that are currently employed in the field to detect modifications. The SVM was used to uncover the principle differences underlying several variations of the task. Five variants of the task were used. An unconstrained reaching, two constrained at the focal level and two …
Artificial Neural Networks and Linear Discriminant Analysis: A Valuable Combination in the Selection of New Antibacterial Compounds
2004
A set of topological descriptors has been used to discriminate between antibacterial and nonantibacterial drugs. Topological descriptors are simple integers calculated from the molecular structure represented in SMILES format. The methods used for antibacterial activity discrimination were linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and artificial neural networks of a multilayer perceptron (MLP) type. The following plot frequency distribution diagrams were used: a function of the number of drugs within a value interval of the discriminant function and the output value of the neural network versus these values. Pharmacological distribution diagrams (PDD) were used as a visualizing technique for the i…
Learning to Navigate in the Gaussian Mixture Surface
2021
In the last years, deep learning models have achieved remarkable generalization capability on computer vision tasks, obtaining excellent results in fine-grained classification problems. Sophisticated approaches based-on discriminative feature learning via patches have been proposed in the literature, boosting the model performances and achieving the state-of-the-art over well-known datasets. Cross-Entropy (CE) loss function is commonly used to enhance the discriminative power of the deep learned features, encouraging the separability between the classes. However, observing the activation map generated by these models in the hidden layer, we realize that many image regions with low discrimin…
3D DCE-MRI Radiomic Analysis for Malignant Lesion Prediction in Breast Cancer Patients
2022
Rationale and Objectives: To develop and validate a radiomic model, with radiomic features extracted from breast Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) from a 1.5T scanner, for predicting the malignancy of masses with enhancement. Images were acquired using an 8-channel breast coil in the axial plane. The rationale behind this study is to show the feasibility of a radio-mics-powered model that could be integrated into the clinical practice by exploiting only standard-of-care DCE-MRI with the goal of reducing the required image pre-processing (ie, normalization and quantitative imaging map generation).Materials and Methods: 107 radiomic features were extracted from a …
Semantic and topological classification of images in magnetically guided capsule endoscopy
2012
International audience; Magnetically-guided capsule endoscopy (MGCE) is a nascent technology with the goal to allow the steering of a capsule endoscope inside a water filled stomach through an external magnetic field. We developed a classification cascade for MGCE images with groups images in semantic and topological categories. Results can be used in a post-procedure review or as a starting point for algorithms classifying pathologies. The first semantic classification step discards over-/under-exposed images as well as images with a large amount of debris. The second topological classification step groups images with respect to their position in the upper gastrointestinal tract (mouth, es…
Incremental Generalized Discriminative Common Vectors for Image Classification.
2015
Subspace-based methods have become popular due to their ability to appropriately represent complex data in such a way that both dimensionality is reduced and discriminativeness is enhanced. Several recent works have concentrated on the discriminative common vector (DCV) method and other closely related algorithms also based on the concept of null space. In this paper, we present a generalized incremental formulation of the DCV methods, which allows the update of a given model by considering the addition of new examples even from unseen classes. Having efficient incremental formulations of well-behaved batch algorithms allows us to conveniently adapt previously trained classifiers without th…
Comprehensive Experimental Analysis of Handcrafted Descriptors for Face Recognition
2018
Over the past few decades, LBP descriptor, which shown its high robustness in extracting discriminative features from an image, has been successfully applied in diverse challenging computer vision applications including face recognition. The efficiency and usability of the LBP operator and its success in various real world applications has inspired the development of much new powerful LBP variants. Indeed, after the appearance of the LBP operator, several renowned extensions and modifications of LBP have been proposed in the literature to the point that it can be difficult to recognize their respective LBP-related strategies, strengths and weaknesses according to a given application, and th…
