Deep learning from phylogenies to uncover the epidemiological dynamics of outbreaks.

Nature communications
Widely applicable, accurate and fast inference methods in phylodynamics are needed to fully profit from the richness of genetic data in uncovering the dynamics of epidemics. Standard methods, including maximum-likelihood and Bayesian approaches, gene...

Evolution and dispersal of mitochondrial DNA haplogroup U5 in Northern Europe: insights from an unsupervised learning approach to phylogeography.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: We combined an unsupervised learning methodology for analyzing mitogenome sequences with maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetics to make detailed inferences about the evolution and diversification of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup U5,...

A new linear combination method of haplogroup distribution central vectors to model population admixtures.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG
We introduce a novel population genetic approach suitable to model the origin and relationships of populations, using new computation methods analyzing Hg frequency distributions. Hgs were selected into groups which show correlated frequencies in sub...

Current progress and open challenges for applying deep learning across the biosciences.

Nature communications
Deep Learning (DL) has recently enabled unprecedented advances in one of the grand challenges in computational biology: the half-century-old problem of protein structure prediction. In this paper we discuss recent advances, limitations, and future pe...

EvoRator: Prediction of Residue-level Evolutionary Rates from Protein Structures Using Machine Learning.

Journal of molecular biology
Measuring evolutionary rates at the residue level is indispensable for gaining structural and functional insights into proteins. State-of-the-art tools for estimating rates take as input a large set of homologous proteins, a probabilistic model of ev...

Accurate and rapid prediction of tuberculosis drug resistance from genome sequence data using traditional machine learning algorithms and CNN.

Scientific reports
Effective and timely antibiotic treatment depends on accurate and rapid in silico antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) predictions. Existing statistical rule-based Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) drug resistance prediction methods using bacterial genomic s...

NIFtHool: an informatics program for identification of NifH proteins using deep neural networks.

F1000Research
Atmospheric nitrogen fixation carried out by microorganisms has environmental and industrial importance, related to the increase of soil fertility and productivity. The present work proposes the development of a new high precision system that allows ...

Machine learning accurately predicts the multivariate performance phenotype from morphology in lizards.

PloS one
Completing the genotype-to-phenotype map requires rigorous measurement of the entire multivariate organismal phenotype. However, phenotyping on a large scale is not feasible for many kinds of traits, resulting in missing data that can also cause prob...

Re-evaluating Deep Neural Networks for Phylogeny Estimation: The Issue of Taxon Sampling.

Journal of computational biology : a journal of computational molecular cell biology
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been recently proposed for quartet tree phylogeny estimation. Here, we present a study evaluating recently trained DNNs in comparison to a collection of standard phylogeny estimation methods on a heterogeneous collect...

Classification and Identification of Archaea Using Single-Cell Raman Ejection and Artificial Intelligence: Implications for Investigating Uncultivated Microorganisms.

Analytical chemistry
Archaea can produce special cellular components such as polyhydroxyalkanoates, carotenoids, rhodopsin, and ether lipids, which have valuable applications in medicine and green energy production. Most of the archaeal species are uncultivated, posing c...
