Weakly supervised semantic segmentation using only image-level labels is critical since it alleviates the need for expensive pixel-level labels. Most cuttingedge methods adopt two-step solutions that learn to produce pseudo-ground-truth using only image-level labels and then train off-the-shelf fully supervised semantic segmentation network with these pseudo labels. Although these methods have made significant progress, they also increase the complexity of the model and training. In this paper, we propose a one-step approach for weakly supervised image semantic segmentation—attention guided enhancement network(AGEN), which produces pseudopixel-level labels under the supervision of image-level labels and trains the network to generate segmentation masks in an end-to-end manner. Particularly, we employ class activation maps(CAM) produced by different layers of the classification branch to guide the segmentation branch to learn spatial and semantic ***, the CAM produced by the lower layer can capture the complete object region but with many ***, the self-attention module is proposed to enhance object regions adaptively and suppress irrelevant object regions, further boosting the segmentation *** on the Pascal VOC 2012 dataset demonstrate that AGEN outperforms alternative state-of-the-art weakly supervised semantic segmentation methods exclusively relying on image-level labels.

A superpixels based interactive image segmentation algorithm is proposed in this paper. Firstly the initial segmentation is obtained by MeanShift algorithm, and then a graph is built using pre-segmented regions as nodes, finally min-cut/maxflow algorithm is implemented for global solution. In this process, each region is represented by a color histogram and Bhattacharyya coefficient is chosen to calculate the similarity between any two regions. Extensive experiments are performed and the results show that the presented algorithm obtains much more satisfactory segmentation results with less user interaction and less comsuming time than MSRM algorithm.

Detecting the boundaries of protein domains is an important and challenging task in both experimental and computational structural biology. In this paper, a promising method for detecting the domain structure of a protein from sequence information alone is presented. The method is based on analyzing multiple sequence alignments derived from a database search. Multiple measures are defined to quantify the domain information content of each position along the sequence. Then they are combined into a single predictor using support vector machine. What is more important, the domain detection is first taken as an imbal- anced data learning problem. A novel undersampling method is proposed on distance-based maximal entropy in the feature space of Support Vector Machine (SVM). The overall precision is about 80%. Simulation results demonstrate that the method can help not only in predicting the complete 3D structure of a protein but also in the machine learning system on general im- balanced datasets.

In this paper, an adaptive image thresholding algorithm is proposed for thresholding images with uneven illumination. Firstly, a Gaussian scale space, which is produced from the convolution of a two-dimensional Gaussian function with an input image, is used to estimate the background image. Followed by background subtraction, the objective image can be easily obtained to eliminate interference of uneven illumination. Thirdly, to highlight those darker objects, gamma correction is employed to enhance the objective image. Finally, the thresholding result is extracted easily using the global valley-emphasis Otsu method. The experimental results show that the introduced method yields satisfactory visual quality.

First discovered in Wuhan, China, SARS-CoV-2 is a highly pathogenic novel coronavirus, which rapidly spreads globally and becomes a pandemic with no vaccine and limited distinctive clinical drugs available till March 13th, 2020. Ribonucleic Acid interference (RNAi) technology, a gene-silencing technology that targets mRNA, can cause damage to RNA viruses effectively. Here, we report a new efficient small interfering RNA (siRNA) design method named Simple Multiple Rules Intelligent Method (SMRI) to propose a new solution of the treatment of COVID-19. To be specific, this study proposes a new model named Base Preference and Thermodynamic Characteristic model (BPTC model) indicating the siRNA silencing efficiency and a new index named siRNA Extended Rules index (SER index) based on the BPTC model to screen high-efficiency siRNAs and filter out the siRNAs that are difficult to take effect or synthesize as a part of the SMRI method, which is more robust and efficient than the traditional statistical indicators under the same circumstances. Besides, to silence the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 to invade cells, this study further puts forward the SMRI method to search candidate high-efficiency siRNAs on SARS-CoV-2's S gene. This study is one of the early studies applying RNAi therapy to the COVID-19 treatment. According to the analysis, the average value of predicted interference efficiency of the candidate siRNAs designed by the SMRI method is comparable to that of the mainstream siRNA design algorithms. Moreover, the SMRI method ensures that the designed siRNAs have more than three base mismatches with human genes, thus avoiding silencing normal human genes. This is not considered by other mainstream methods, thereby the five candidate high-efficiency siRNAs which are easy to take effect or synthesize and much safer for human body are obtained by our SMRI method, which provide a new safer, small dosage and long efficacy solution for the treatment of COVID-19.
