CMImpute: cross-species and tissue imputation of species-level DNA methylation samples across mammalian species.

Genome biology
The large-scale application of the mammalian methylation array has substantially expanded the availability of DNA methylation data in mammalian species. However, this data captures only a small portion of species-tissue combinations. To address this,...

Using deep learning artificial intelligence for sex identification and taxonomy of sand fly species.

PloS one
Sandflies are vectors for several tropical diseases such as leishmaniasis, bartonellosis, and sandfly fever. Moreover, sandflies exhibit species-specificity in transmitting particular pathogen species, with females being responsible for disease trans...

Mouse-Geneformer: A deep learning model for mouse single-cell transcriptome and its cross-species utility.

PLoS genetics
Deep learning techniques are increasingly utilized to analyze large-scale single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data, offering valuable insights from complex transcriptome datasets. Geneformer, a pre-trained model using a Transformer Encoder archite...

Dorsoventral comparison of intraspecific variation in the butterfly wing pattern using a convolutional neural network.

Biology letters
Butterfly wing patterns exhibit notable differences between the dorsal and ventral surfaces, and morphological analyses of them have provided insights into the ecological and behavioural characteristics of wing patterns. Conventional methods for dors...

Contrastive machine learning reveals species -shared and -specific brain functional architecture.

Medical image analysis
A deep comparative analysis of brain functional connectome across species in primates has the potential to yield valuable insights for both scientific and clinical applications. However, the interspecies commonality and differences are inherently ent...

AI-based coral species discrimination: A case study of the Siderastrea Atlantic Complex.

PloS one
Species delimitation in hard corals remains controversial even after 250+ years of taxonomy. Confusing taxonomy in Scleractinia is not the result of sloppy work: clear boundaries are hard to draw because most diagnostic characters are quantitative an...

m5C-Seq: Machine learning-enhanced profiling of RNA 5-methylcytosine modifications.

Computers in biology and medicine
Epigenetic modifications, particularly RNA methylation and histone alterations, play a crucial role in heredity, development, and disease. Among these, RNA 5-methylcytosine (m5C) is the most prevalent RNA modification in mammalian cells, essential fo...

Cross-Species Prediction of Transcription Factor Binding by Adversarial Training of a Novel Nucleotide-Level Deep Neural Network.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Cross-species prediction of TF binding remains a major challenge due to the rapid evolutionary turnover of individual TF binding sites, resulting in cross-species predictive performance being consistently worse than within-species performance. In thi...

Deep learning for identifying bee species from images of wings and pinned specimens.

PloS one
One of the most challenging aspects of bee ecology and conservation is species-level identification, which is costly, time consuming, and requires taxonomic expertise. Recent advances in the application of deep learning and computer vision have shown...

A robotic falcon induces similar collective escape responses in different bird species.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Patterns of collective escape of a bird flock from a predator are fascinating, but difficult to study under natural conditions because neither prey nor predator is under experimental control. We resolved this problem by using an artificial predator (...
