The Cauchy-Schwarz (CS) divergence was developed by Príncipe et al. in 2000. In this paper, we extend the classic CS divergence to quantify the closeness between two conditional distributions and show that the de...

In this work, we evaluate two different image clustering objectives, k-means clustering and correlation clustering, in the context of Triplet Loss induced feature space embeddings. Specifically, we train a convolutional neural network to learn discriminative features by optimizing two popular versions of the Triplet Loss in order to study their clustering properties under the assumption of noisy labels. Additionally, we propose a new, simple Triplet Loss formulation, which shows desirable properties with respect to formal clustering objectives and outperforms the existing methods. We evaluate all three Triplet loss formulations for K-means and correlation clustering on the CIFAR-10 image classification dataset.

In many remote sensing applications the measured radiance needs to be corrected for atmospheric effects to study surface properties such as reflectance, temperature or emission features. The correction often applies radiative transfer to simulate atmospheric propagation, a time-consuming step usually done offline. In principle, an efficient machinelearning (ML) model can accelerate the simulation step. This is the goal pursued here in the context of solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) emitted by vegetation around the O 2 -A band using the spaceborne DESIS and airborne HyPlant spectrometers. We present an ML simulator of at-sensor radiances trained on synthetic spectra and describe its performance in detail. The simulator is fast and accurate, constituting a promising alternative to a full-fledged, lengthy radiative transfer code for SIF retrieval in the O 2 -A band with DESIS and HyPlant.

Medication optimization is a common component of the treatment strategy in patients with Parkinson’s disease. As the disease progresses, it is essential to compensate for the movement deterioration in patients. Conventionally, examining motor deterioration and prescribing medication requires the patient’s onsite presence in hospitals or practices. Home-monitoring technologies can remotely deliver essential information to physicians and help them devise a treatment decision according to the patient’s need. Additionally, they help to observe the patient’s response to these changes. In this regard, we conducted a longitudinal study to collect gait data of patients with Parkinson’s disease while they received medication changes. Using logistic regression classifier, we could detect the annotated motor deterioration during medication optimization with an accuracy of 92%. Moreover, an in-depth examination of the best features illustrated a decline in gait speed and swing phase duration in the deterioration phases due to suboptimal *** relevance— Our proposed gait analysis method in this study provides objective, detailed, and punctual information to physicians. Revealing clinically relevant time points related to the patient’s need for medical adaption alleviates therapy optimization for physicians and reduces the duration of suboptimal treatment for patients. As the home-monitoring system acts remotely, embedding it in the medical care pathways could improve patients’ quality of life.

Hi-C is a genome-wide chromosome conformation capture technology that detects interactions between pairs of genomic regions and exploits higher order chromatin structures. Conceptually Hi-C data counts interaction frequencies between every position in the genome and every other position. Biologically functional interactions are expected to occur more frequently than transient background and artefactual interactions. To identify biologically relevant interactions, several background models that take biases such as distance, GC content and mappability into account have been proposed. Here we introduce MaxHiC, a background correction tool that deals with these complex biases and robustly identifies statistically significant interactions in both Hi-C and capture Hi-C experiments. MaxHiC uses a negative binomial distribution model and a maximum likelihood technique to correct biases in both Hi-C and capture Hi-C libraries. We systematically benchmark MaxHiC against major Hi-C background correction tools including Hi-C significant interaction callers (SIC) and Hi-C loop callers using published Hi-C, capture Hi-C, and Micro-C datasets. Our results demonstrate that 1) Interacting regions identified by MaxHiC have significantly greater levels of overlap with known regulatory features (e.g. active chromatin histone marks, CTCF binding sites, DNase sensitivity) and also disease-associated genome-wide association SNPs than those identified by currently existing models, 2) the pairs of interacting regions are more likely to be linked by eQTL pairs and 3) more likely to link known regulatory features including known functional enhancer-promoter pairs validated by CRISPRi than any of the existing methods. We also demonstrate that interactions between different genomic region types have distinct distance distributions only revealed by MaxHiC. MaxHiC is publicly available as a python package for the analysis of Hi-C, capture Hi-C and Micro-C data.

Online channels, e.g., Facebook Messenger and Line, are widely used especially in COVID-19 pandemic. To quickly respond to their customer, chatbot system are implemented in many companies or organizations, connected to those channels. The Office of Registrar, Thammasat University also implements a chatbot to answer questions from students. An important step in the chatbot system is to know an intention of a question message. A bidirectional LSTM model is employed to classify a question message from the chatbot system into five intention classes. The experimental results shows that the obtained model yields an accuracy of 0.80 on our validation dataset.
