Abstract Accurately quantifying cellular morphology at scale could substantially empower existing single-cell approaches. However, measuring cell remains an active field of research, which has inspired multiple computer vision algorithms over the years. Here, we show that DINO, a vision-transformer based, self-supervised algorithm, remarkable ability for learning rich representations without manual annotations or any other type supervision. We evaluate DINO on wide variety tasks across three...

β-1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine transferase 2 (B4GALNT2) is a vital candidate gene that affects the growth traits in sheep. However, whether it has same function goats remains to be investigated further. This study selected 348 Nanjiang Yellow goats, screened all exons, and conserved non-coding regions of B4GALNT2 for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Our results revealed presence synonymous mutation, rs672215506, within exon goat population. The mutation resulted decrease mRNA stability...

Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 mRNA-binding Protein 1 (IGF2BP1) is a candidate gene of significant interest for modulating economically important traits in livestock and poultry. The second intron IGF2BP1 has been implicated growth-related traits, though its precise mechanistic role remains elusive. Initial resequencing analyses our laboratory indicated strong selective pressures on the genomic region, prompting selection identification several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Seven...

Abstract The "watershed transformation" is a well‐known powerful tool for automated image segmentation. However, it often computationally expensive and can produce over‐segmentation in situations of high gradient noise, quantity error detailed texture. Here, new method has been designed to overcome these inherent drawbacks. After pre‐processing the imagery using nonlinear filter order an optimized watershed transformation applied provide initial segmentation result. Then, multi‐scale,...

Design is an iterative process that aims at problem-solving. While the importance of mental iteration has been identified, there are little research on how to improve in design process. In this paper, we propose a method augment by AI. An experiment was conducted study effect AI iteration. The results indicate could designers' performance fluency and stylization.

Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor 2 mRNA‐binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) plays essential roles in the proliferation of skeletal muscle satellite cells (MuSCs). Increasing evidence has shown that IGF2BP1 regulates expression noncoding RNAs and mRNAs. However, related molecular network remains to be fully understood. Therefore, we performed RNA sequencing analyzed microRNAs (miRNAs), long (lncRNAs), mRNAs differentially expressed goat MuSCs treated with overexpressing empty vectors. A total 36...

Cell Painting images offer valuable insights into the state of a cell and enable many biological applications, but publicly available arrayed datasets only include hundreds genes perturbed. The JUMP (Joint Undertaking in Morphological Profiling) Consortium perturbed roughly 75% protein-coding genome human U-2 OS cells, generating rich resource single-cell extracted features. These profiles capture phenotypic impacts perturbing 15,243 genes, including overexpressing 12,609 (using open reading...

Most neural networks assume that input images have a fixed number of channels (three for RGB images). However, there are many settings where the may vary, such as microscopy changes depending on instruments and experimental goals. Yet, has not been systemic attempt to create evaluate invariant type channels. As result, trained models remain specific individual studies hardly reusable other settings. In this paper, we present benchmark investigating channel-adaptive in imaging, which consists...
