  • NeuML As many go down the "agentic path", we're choosing a different path.....graph path traversals! 🔵->🟨->🟢Graph path traversals use vector similarity and/or relationships of your choosing to walk a graph and enable LLMs to explain complex concepts and relationships. This example walks a path and automatically generates an explanation of the network in the form of a short article. Paths can be set directly (i.e. Roman Empire -> Reasons for collapse) or inferred from a query (Tell me the reasons why the Roman Empire collapsed).Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/evdB5HgN 8
  • Deniz Kavi SPACE2: Improved computational epitope profiling using structural models identifies a broader diversity of antibodies that bind to the same epitope. Web server: https://lnkd.in/gJT3wgh8Paper: https://lnkd.in/gwEs93FqGroup your antibodies by what epitope they bind to on Tamarind Bio!Abstract:The function of an antibody is intrinsically linked to the epitope it engages. Clonal clustering methods, based on sequence identity, are commonly used to group antibodies that will bind to the same epitope. However, such methods neglect the fact that antibodies with highly diverse sequences can exhibit similar binding site geometries and engage common epitopes. In a previous study, we described SPACE1, a method that structurally clustered antibodies in order to predict their epitopes. This methodology was limited by the inaccuracies and incomplete coverage of template-based modeling. In addition, it was only benchmarked at the level of domain-consistency on one virus class. Here, we present SPACE2, which uses the latest machine learning-based structure prediction technology combined with a novel clustering protocol, and benchmark it on binding data that have epitope-level resolution. On six diverse sets of antigen-specific antibodies, we demonstrate that SPACE2 accurately clusters antibodies that engage common epitopes. 32

  • Arun Subramanian Scikit-learn has been a core component of my ML toolkit since I began using Python. However, its true depth and power only became apparent to me in the past year.I first encountered the concept of the scikit-learn Pipeline (sklearn.pipeline.Pipeline) in Jose Marcial Portilla's "Python for Machine Learning and Data Science" Udemy course. This concept proved invaluable for streamlining modeling work by automating sequential operations, including standard scalers, model fitting with cross-validation, and hyperparameter tuning with GridSearchCV. (See scikit-learn documentation: https://lnkd.in/gFCaef2h) Later, while learning about recommender systems in Frank Kane's "Building Recommender Systems" Udemy course, I was introduced to the flexibility of creating custom estimators (surprise.prediction_algorithms.algo_base) using the scikit-surprise library. While I was impressed by this capability, I didn't fully grasp its potential applications beyond recommender systems, such as its relevance to feature engineering.Recently, I've delved deeper into scikit-learn's potential through custom transformers (sklearn.base.BaseEstimator, sklearn.base.TransformerMixin). Soledad Galli's "Deployment of Machine Learning models" Udemy course provided invaluable insights into integrating these with pipelines for efficient ML Ops. The TransformerMixin, BaseEstimator interfaces offer a structured approach to creating reusable data transformation components. Soledad's open-source library, "feature-engine," utilizes these foundational concepts and provides a diverse set of custom transformers that can significantly enhance and streamline your feature engineering operations. (See feature-engine documentation: https://lnkd.in/gZbck84d)It's evident that scikit-learn's capabilities extend far beyond its core functionalities. This powerful library deserves a spotlight on its hidden gems. Thanks to all the Udemy instructors mentioned above for helping me learn and explore deeper concepts. Personally, I'm excited to test out custom transformers in my own work.Have you used custom transformers in your work?

  • Sucheendra kumar New Preprint Alert:IntegrIBS: Evaluating the Potential and Challenges of Building a Robust IBS Classifier with Integrated Microbiome Data.Our study delves into the potential and challenges of integrating multiple data sets and predicting Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) using 16S rRNA microbiome data. This approach initially showed promise with a 10-fold cross-validation approach and explainability analysis identifying key bacteria previously implicated in IBS. However, significant performance drops in leave-one-dataset-out tests reveal challenges posed by biological and technical variability. This underscores that 16S microbiome data alone may be insufficient for accurate IBS prediction. Argues for more comprehensive large datasets, standardization, better measurement technologies, and multi-omics as essential for better accuracy.https://lnkd.in/gYp_KTd6link to study website: https://bit.ly/IntegrIBS#Research #IBS #Microbiome #DataIntegration #MachineLearning #AI #PrecisionMedicine 30 6 Comments
  • xCures Causal machine learning is changing how we make clinical decisions. Unlike traditional machine learning that predicts outcomes, causal machine learning explains the "why" and "what if" behind those predictions.This shift from correlation to causation allows for personalized medicine at its best.Imagine knowing not just which treatment could work, but why it’s the best option for a specific patient.𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗟 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗠𝗟:𝟭.

  • Amarda Shehu There is often an unspoken assumption by ML researchers that all we need to make progress and model every aspect of our world is data. We do not ascribe to this in my lab. In fact, we believe that data will never be enough. Our experiences with the nuances and complexities of scientific problems have informed us to the insufficiency of data to capture continuous physical processes, which afterall govern our biological and physical world. An example of this is this series of two papers led by my wonderful PhD student, Anowarul Kabir and advanced by a precious multi-year collaboration of my lab with Los Alamos National Lab:Anowarul Kabir, Manish Bhattarai, Kim Rasmussen,Amarda Shehu, Anny Usheva, Alan R Bishop, and Boian S Alexandrov.Examining DNA Breathing with pyDNA-EPBD.Bioinformatics 39(11):btad699,2023.https://lnkd.in/gZaHE4hSAnowarul Kabir,Manish Bhattarai,Selma Peterson,Yonatan Najman-Licht,KimØ Rasmussen,Amarda Shehu,AlanR Bishop,Boian Alexandrov,Anny Usheva. DNA Breathing Integration with Deep learning Foundational Model Advances Genome-wide Binding Prediction of Human Transcription Factors.Nucleic Acids Research: gkae783,2024.https://lnkd.in/gfTTqcPyOur goal: advance an exceptionally challenging problem in molecular biology, prediction of transcription factor binding sites. Our first step: capture the underlying physics that is missing in the data. Our second step: integrate that now with the data we have in a foundation model for predicting transcription factor binding sites. Performance improves. Most importantly, when we look at the sequence motifs that constitute "signatures" of what makes a transcription factor binding site, we obtain answers. All in the open, nothing opaque. 33 1 Comment
