DeepBrain: Functional Representation of Neural In-Situ Hybridization Images for Gene Ontology Classification Using Deep Convolutional Autoencoders
This paper presents a novel deep learning-based method for learning a
functional representation of mammalian neural images. The method uses a deep
convolutional denoising autoencoder (CDAE) for generating an invariant, compact
representation of in situ hybridization (ISH) images. While most existing
methods for bio-imaging analysis were not developed to handle images with
highly complex anatomical structures, the results presented in this paper show
that functional representation extracted by CDAE can help learn features of
functional gene ontology categories for their classification in a highly
accurate manner. Using this CDAE representation, our method outperforms the
previous state-of-the-art classification rate, by improving the average AUC
from 0.92 to 0.98, i.e., achieving 75% reduction in error. The method operates
on input images that were downsampled significantly with respect to the
original ones to make it computationally feasible
CIFAR-10: KNN-based Ensemble of Classifiers
In this paper, we study the performance of different classifiers on the
CIFAR-10 dataset, and build an ensemble of classifiers to reach a better
performance. We show that, on CIFAR-10, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and
Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), on some classes, are mutually exclusive,
thus yield in higher accuracy when combined. We reduce KNN overfitting using
Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and ensemble it with a CNN to increase its
accuracy. Our approach improves our best CNN model from 93.33% to 94.03%
