Improving the taxonomy of fossil pollen using convolutional neural networks and superresolution microscopy.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Taxonomic resolution is a major challenge in palynology, largely limiting the ecological and evolutionary interpretations possible with deep-time fossil pollen data. We present an approach for fossil pollen analysis that uses optical superresolution ...

Recognizing and counting Dendrocephalus brasiliensis (Crustacea: Anostraca) cysts using deep learning.

PloS one
The Dendrocephalus brasiliensis, a native species from South America, is a freshwater crustacean well explored in conservational and productive activities. Its main characteristics are its rusticity and resistance cysts production, in which the hatch...

A Machine Learning Model for Evaluating Imported Disease Screening Strategies in Immigrant Populations.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene
Given the high prevalence of imported diseases in immigrant populations, it has postulated the need to establish screening programs that allow their early diagnosis and treatment. We present a mathematical model based on machine learning methodologie...
