Enhancing Bacterial Phenotype Classification Through the Integration of Autogating and Automated Machine Learning in Flow Cytometric Analysis.

Cytometry. Part A : the journal of the International Society for Analytical Cytology
Although flow cytometry produces reliable results, the data processing from gating to fingerprinting is prone to subjective bias. Here, we integrated autogating with Automated Machine Learning in flow cytometry to enhance the classification of bacter...

Effect of training sample size, image resolution and epochs on filamentous and floc-forming bacteria classification using machine learning.

Journal of environmental management
Computer vision techniques can expedite the detection of bacterial growth in wastewater treatment plants and alleviate some of the shortcomings associated with traditional detection methods. In recent years, researchers capitalized on this potential ...

BacTermFinder: a comprehensive and general bacterial terminator finder using a CNN ensemble.

NAR genomics and bioinformatics
A terminator is a DNA region that ends the transcription process. Currently, multiple computational tools are available for predicting bacterial terminators. However, these methods are specialized for certain bacteria or terminator type (i.e. intrins...

DRAMMA: a multifaceted machine learning approach for novel antimicrobial resistance gene detection in metagenomic data.

Microbiome
BACKGROUND: Antibiotics are essential for medical procedures, food security, and public health. However, ill-advised usage leads to increased pathogen resistance to antimicrobial substances, posing a threat of fatal infections and limiting the benefi...

Machine-learning assisted discovery unveils novel interplay between gut microbiota and host metabolic disturbance in diabetic kidney disease.

Gut microbes
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a serious healthcare dilemma. Nonetheless, the interplay between the functional capacity of gut microbiota and their host remains elusive for DKD. This study aims to elucidate the functional capability of gut microbio...

New solutions for antibiotic discovery: Prioritizing microbial biosynthetic space using ecology and machine learning.

PLoS biology
With the explosive increase in genome sequence data, perhaps the major challenge in natural-product-based drug discovery is the identification of gene clusters most likely to specify new chemistry and bioactivities. We discuss the challenges and stat...

Targeting Bacterial RNA Polymerase: Harnessing Simulations and Machine Learning to Design Inhibitors for Drug-Resistant Pathogens.
