This paper presents a novel natural gradient and Hessian-free (NGHF) optimisation framework for neural network training that can operate efficiently in a distributed manner. It relies on the linear conjugate gradient (CG) algorithm to combine the nat...
Advanced microscopy enables us to acquire quantities of time-lapse images to visualize the dynamic characteristics of tissues, cells or molecules. Microscopy images typically vary in signal-to-noise ratios and include a wealth of information which re...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is globally the third most common type of cancer. Colonoscopy is considered the gold standard in colorectal cancer screening and allows for the removal of polyps before they become cancerous. Computer-aided detection systems (...
As one of important epigenetic modifications, DNA N4-methylcytosine (4mC) plays a crucial role in controlling gene replication, expression, cell cycle, DNA replication, and differentiation. The accurate identification of 4mC sites is necessary to und...
BACKGROUND: There are few large studies examining and predicting the diversified cardiovascular/noncardiovascular comorbidity relationships with stroke. We investigated stroke risks in a very large prospective cohort of patients with multimorbidity, ...

We recently published a method to infer ancestral landmark-based shape ontogenies that takes into account the possible existence of changes in developmental timing. Here we describe SPASOS, a software to perform that analysis. SPASOS is an open-sourc...
BACKGROUND: Given the significant cost and morbidity of patients undergoing lumbar fusion, accurate preoperative risk-stratification would be of great utility. We aim to develop a machine learning model for prediction of major complications and readm...
