Abstract

A method implemented by one or more computer device includes accessing a set of medical data associated with a patient, in which the set of medical data includes a plurality of modalities of medical data. The method includes inputting one or more one of the plurality of modalities of medical data into a first machine-learning model trained to generate a first vector representation and inputting another one of the plurality of modalities of medical data into a second machine-learning model trained to generate a second vector representation. The method includes generating a combined vector representation based on the first vector representation and the second vector representation,and storing the combined vector representation to a database associated with the one or more computing devices.

Abstract

The present invention includes: a reagent vessel holding part that holds a reagent vessel for accommodating a reagent; a reagent vessel information detection unit that detects information relating to the reagent vessel; a display unit that displays a screen including an operation region where operations from a user are received; and a control unit that causes the display unit to display the screen. The control unit has: a vessel presence/absence determination unit that determines whether the reagent vessel is present in the reagent vessel holding unit on the basis of the information detected by the reagent vessel information detection unit; a first operation region output unit that outputs, to the screen, a first operation region which is operated when the user has confirmed removal of the reagent vessel; a second operation region output unit that outputs, to the screen, a second operation region which is operated when shutdown is performed; and a warning output unit that outputs, to the screen, a warning prompting removal of the reagent vessel when the vessel presence/absence determination unit has determined that the reagent vessel is present. The foregoing makes it possible to provide an automated analysis device which prevents shutdown from starting while a reagent has been left behind.

Abstract

Methods of extracting information about protein sequence modifications in a protein are disclosed. Protein data derived from mass spectrometry measurements performed on peptides from at least two enzymatic digests is received. Candidate sequence modifications are identified. A subset of the candidate sequence modifications that have a higher average probability of representing true sequence modifications than the rest of the candidate sequence modifications are determined. The determination of the subset of candidate sequence modifications comprises a step of selecting candidate sequence modifications dependent on the candidate sequence modifications being at amino acid sequence positions that are covered by at least two different peptide species that each contain the modification.

A computer-implemented method of differentiating between lymphoid blast cells and myeloid blast cells comprises: receiving (S30) a digital image containing one or more blast cells; applying (S34) a parametric model classifier (412) to one or more portions of the digital image each containing a respective blast cell, the parametric model (416) configured to generate an output (S38) indicative of whether each blast cell is a lymphoid blast cell or a myeloid blast cell. Computer- implemented methods of training a parametric model (416) are also provided, as well as a clinical decision support system (400) relying on the computer-implemented method of classifying blast cells.

Abstract

A machine learning model for traversing a decision tree, the machine learning model trained from a structured data set including a first set of key-value pairs and subject-specific criteria using the key-value pairs. The first set of key-value pairs is transformed into a second set of key-value pairs, which are projected to a subject-specific point within a multi-dimensional space. The decision tree includes decision and leaf nodes. Each leaf node is connected to a root node via a leaf-node-specific trajectory. Each decision node corresponds to a criterion using a value in the second set of key-value pairs. For each leaf node, a leaf-node-specific point within the multi-dimensional space is determined using the leaf-node-specific trajectory, and a similarity score is determined using the leaf-node-specific and subject-specific points. A subset of the leaf nodes is identified using the scores. State or protocol information for each leaf node in the subset is retrieved.
