DEEP MACHINE LEARNING FOR AUTOMATING BIOTECH TASKS THROUGH SELF-LEARNED EXPERT SKILLSETS

9th December | Ghent | Belgium

Biotechnology Deep Learning

Biggest successes achieved on

supervised learning,

requiring huge amounts of annotated data

Unsupervised learning = Holy Grail

Still images (e.g., whale photographs)

Genomics/Proteomics

Moving images (e.g., parasite videos)

How do we cope with a lack of available data and/or annotations?

How can we exploit unsupervised learning to automate even more?

To what extent can we automate cumbersome biotech tasks?

Example use case: tracking parasite states in different compounds

Individual parasite tracking1.Based on movement rate, assign a state

to each parasite

Using convolutional neural networks, learnthe shapes of living/dead parasites

Collective parasite tracking2.Based on shape recognition, predict a state distribution at each time interval

Model the evolution over time predict evolution in new compounds
