In recent work we reported the vibrational spectrum of more than 100,000 known protein structures, and a self-consistent sonification method to render the spectrum in the audible range of frequencies (Extreme Mechanics Letters, 2019). Here we present a method to transform these molecular vibrations into materialized vibrations of thin water films using acoustic actuators, leading to complex patterns of surface waves, and using the resulting macroscopic images in further processing using deep convolutional neural networks. Specifically, the patterns of water surface waves for each protein structure is used to build training sets for neural networks, aimed to classify and further process the patterns. Once trained, the neural network model is capable of discerning different proteins solely by analyzing the macroscopic surface wave patterns in the water film. Not only can the method distinguish different types of proteins (e.g. alpha-helix vs hybrids of alpha-helices and beta-sheets), but it is also capable of determining different folding states of the same protein, or the binding events of proteins to ligands. Using the DeepDream algorithm, instances of key features of the deep neural network can be made visible in a range of images, allowing us to explore the inner workings of protein surface wave patter neural networks, as well as the creation of new images by finding and highlighting features of protein molecular spectra in a range of photographic input. The integration of the water-focused realization of cymatics, combined with neural networks and especially generative methods, offer a new direction to realize materiomusical Inceptionism as a possible direction in nano-inspired art. The method could have applications for detecting different protein structures, the effect of mutations, or uses in medical imaging and diagnostics, with broad impact in nano-to-macro transitions.

As proteins with similar structures often have similar functions, analysis of protein structures can help predict protein functions and is thus important. We consider the problem of protein structure classification, which computationally classifies t
he structures of proteins into pre-defined groups. We develop a weighted network that depicts the protein structures, and more importantly, we propose the first graphlet-based measure that applies to weighted networks. Further, we develop a deep neural network (DNN) composed of both convolutional and recurrent layers to use this measure for classification. Put together, our approach shows dramatic improvements in performance over existing graphlet-based approaches on 36 real datasets. Even comparing with the state-of-the-art approach, it almost halves the classification error. In addition to protein structure networks, our weighted-graphlet measure and DNN classifier can potentially be applied to classification of other weighted networks in computational biology as well as in other domains.
Blanking processes belong to the most widely used manufacturing techniques due to their economic efficiency. Their economic viability depends to a large extent on the resulting product quality and the associated customer satisfaction as well as on po
ssible downtimes. In particular, the occurrence of increased tool wear reduces the product quality and leads to downtimes, which is why considerable research has been carried out in recent years with regard to wear detection. While processes have widely been monitored based on force and acceleration signals, a new approach is pursued in this paper. Blanked workpieces manufactured by punches with 16 different wear states are photographed and then used as inputs for Deep Convolutional Neural Networks to classify wear states. The results show that wear states can be predicted with surprisingly high accuracy, opening up new possibilities and research opportunities for tool wear monitoring of blanking processes.
Recently exciting progress has been made on protein contact prediction, but the predicted contacts for proteins without many sequence homologs is still of low quality and not very useful for de novo structure prediction. This paper presents a new dee
p learning method that predicts contacts by integrating both evolutionary coupling (EC) and sequence conservation information through an ultra-deep neural network formed by two deep residual networks. This deep neural network allows us to model very complex sequence-contact relationship as well as long-range inter-contact correlation. Our method greatly outperforms existing contact prediction methods and leads to much more accurate contact-assisted protein folding. Tested on three datasets of 579 proteins, the average top L long-range prediction accuracy obtained our method, the representative EC method CCMpred and the CASP11 winner MetaPSICOV is 0.47, 0.21 and 0.30, respectively; the average top L/10 long-range accuracy of our method, CCMpred and MetaPSICOV is 0.77, 0.47 and 0.59, respectively. Ab initio folding using our predicted contacts as restraints can yield correct folds (i.e., TMscore>0.6) for 203 test proteins, while that using MetaPSICOV- and CCMpred-predicted contacts can do so for only 79 and 62 proteins, respectively. Further, our contact-assisted models have much better quality than template-based models. Using our predicted contacts as restraints, we can (ab initio) fold 208 of the 398 membrane proteins with TMscore>0.5. By contrast, when the training proteins of our method are used as templates, homology modeling can only do so for 10 of them. One interesting finding is that even if we do not train our prediction models with any membrane proteins, our method works very well on membrane protein prediction. Finally, in recent blind CAMEO benchmark our method successfully folded 5 test proteins with a novel fold.
Prostate cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer and the third leading cause of cancer death in North America. As an integrated part of computer-aided detection (CAD) tools, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) has been intens
ively studied for accurate detection of prostate cancer. With deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) significant success in computer vision tasks such as object detection and segmentation, different CNNs architectures are increasingly investigated in medical imaging research community as promising solutions for designing more accurate CAD tools for cancer detection. In this work, we developed and implemented an automated CNNs-based pipeline for detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa) for a given axial DWI image and for each patient. DWI images of 427 patients were used as the dataset, which contained 175 patients with PCa and 252 healthy patients. To measure the performance of the proposed pipeline, a test set of 108 (out of 427) patients were set aside and not used in the training phase. The proposed pipeline achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.87 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.84-0.90) and 0.84 (95% CI: 0.76-0.91) at slice level and patient level, respectively.
Computational drug discovery provides an efficient tool helping large scale lead molecules screening. One of the major tasks of lead discovery is identifying molecules with promising binding affinities towards a target, a protein in general. The accu
racies of current scoring functions which are used to predict the binding affinity are not satisfactory enough. Thus, machine learning (ML) or deep learning (DL) based methods have been developed recently to improve the scoring functions. In this study, a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model (called OnionNet) is introduced and the features are based on rotation-free element-pair specific contacts between ligands and protein atoms, and the contacts were further grouped in different distance ranges to cover both the local and non-local interaction information between the ligand and the protein. The prediction power of the model is evaluated and compared with other scoring functions using the comparative assessment of scoring functions (CASF-2013) benchmark and the v2016 core set of PDBbind database. When compared to a previous CNN-based scoring function, our model shows improvements of 0.08 and 0.16 in the correlations (R) and standard deviations (SD) of regression, respectively, between the predicted binding affinities and the experimental measured binding affinities. The robustness of the model is further explored by predicting the binding affinities of the complexes generated from docking simulations instead of experimentally determined PDB structures.
