Ab initio protein tertiary structure prediction is one of the long-standing problems in structural bioinformatics. With help residue-residue contact and secondary information, accuracy ab can be enhanced. In this study, an improved differential evolution with information referred to as SCDE proposed for prediction. SCDE, two score models based on are proposed, selection strategies, namely, structure-based strategy contact-based strategy, designed guide conformation space search. A...
Recognition of thyroid glands and tissues the neck is vital for screening related diseases in ultrasound videos. This task subjective, challenging, dependent on experience sonographer current clinical practice. The purpose to develop a fully automated gland recognition framework assist doctors distinguishing boundaries different tissues. In this paper, we propose novel deep learning that consists feature extraction network, region proposal object detection head, spatial pyramid...
The prevalence of thyroid diseases has been increasing year by year. In this study, we established and validated a deep learning method (Cascade region-based convolutional neural network, R-CNN) based on ultrasound videos for automatic detection segmentation the gland its surrounding tissues in order to reduce workload radiologists improve diagnosis rate disease.Seventy-one patients with normal were included. 59 used as training dataset, data 12 validation addition, 9 patents testing...
Fetal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is challenged by fetal movements and maternal breathing. Although fast MRI sequences allow artifact free acquisition of individual 2D slices, motion frequently occurs in the spatially adjacent slices. Motion correction for each slice thus critical reconstruction 3D brain MRI. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-task learning framework that adopts coarse-to-fine strategy to jointly learn pose estimation parameters tissue segmentation map...
Robust motion correction of fetal brain MRI slices is crucial for 3D volume reconstruction. However, conventional methods can only handle a limited range motion. Hence, deep learning model based on geometric constraints proposed in order to predict the arbitrary standard anatomical space, which consists global estimation network and relative network. In particular, used estimate between two adjacent slices, exploited as constraint. Then, sharing features networks make learn more unique...
De novo protein structure prediction can be treated as a conformational space optimization problem under the guidance of an energy function. However, it is challenge how to design accurate function which ensures low-energy conformations close native structures. Fortunately, recent studies have shown that accuracy de significantly improved by integrating residue-residue distance information. In this paper, two-stage feature-based algorithm (TDFO) for proposed within framework evolutionary...
Robust motion correction of fetal brain MRI slices is crucial for volume reconstruction. However, conventional methods can only handle a limited range motion.
