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 (...

Deep learning the cis-regulatory code for gene expression in selected model plants.

Nature communications
Elucidating the relationship between non-coding regulatory element sequences and gene expression is crucial for understanding gene regulation and genetic variation. We explored this link with the training of interpretable deep learning models predict...

Unsupervised machine learning for species delimitation, integrative taxonomy, and biodiversity conservation.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
Integrative taxonomy, combining data from multiple axes of biologically relevant variation, is a major goal of systematics. Ideally, such taxonomies will derive from similarly integrative species-delimitation analyses. Yet, most current methods rely ...

Marine Robotics for Deep-Sea Specimen Collection: A Taxonomy of Underwater Manipulative Actions.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In order to develop a gripping system or control strategy that improves scientific sampling procedures, knowledge of the process and the consequent definition of requirements is fundamental. Nevertheless, factors influencing sampling procedures have ...

A low-cost, long-term underwater camera trap network coupled with deep residual learning image analysis.

PloS one
Understanding long-term trends in marine ecosystems requires accurate and repeatable counts of fishes and other aquatic organisms on spatial and temporal scales that are difficult or impossible to achieve with diver-based surveys. Long-term, spatiall...

Coalescent-based species delimitation meets deep learning: Insights from a highly fragmented cactus system.

Molecular ecology resources
Delimiting species boundaries is a major goal in evolutionary biology. An increasing volume of literature has focused on the challenges of investigating cryptic diversity within complex evolutionary scenarios of speciation, including gene flow and de...

Rapid identification of the resistance of urinary tract pathogenic bacteria using deep learning-based spectroscopic analysis.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry
The resistance of urinary tract pathogenic bacteria to various antibiotics is increasing, which requires the rapid detection of infectious pathogens for accurate and timely antibiotic treatment. Here, we propose a rapid diagnosis strategy for the ant...

Evolutionarily informed machine learning enhances the power of predictive gene-to-phenotype relationships.

Nature communications
Inferring phenotypic outcomes from genomic features is both a promise and challenge for systems biology. Using gene expression data to predict phenotypic outcomes, and functionally validating the genes with predictive powers are two challenges we add...
