Many polarisation techniques have been harnessed for decades in biological and clinical research, each based upon measurement of the vectorial properties of light or the vectorial transformations imposed on light by objects. Various advanced vector measurement/sensing techniques, physical interpretation methods, and approaches to analyse biomedically relevant information have been developed and harnessed. In this review, we focus mainly on summarizing methodologies and applications related to tissue polarimetry, with an emphasis on the adoption of the Stokes-Mueller formalism. Several recent breakthroughs, development trends, and potential multi-modal uses in conjunction with other techniques are also presented. The primary goal of the review is to give the reader a general overview in the use of vectorial information that can be obtained by polarisation optics for applications in biomedical and clinical research.

We present a sensor capable of detecting solution-based nanoparticles using an optical fiber tip functionalized with a photonic crystal cavity. When sensor tips are retracted from a nanoparticle solution after being submerged, we find that a combinat ion of convective fluid forces and optically-induced trapping cause an aggregation of nanoparticles to form directly on cavity surfaces. A simple readout of quantum dot photoluminescence coupled to the optical fiber shows that nanoparticle presence and concentration can be detected through modified cavity properties. Our sensor can detect both gold and iron oxide nanoparticles and can be utilized for molecular sensing applications in biomedicine.
Here, we report analysis and summary of research in the field of localization microscopy for optical imaging. We introduce the basic elements of super-resolved localization microscopy methods for PALM and STORM, commonly used both in vivo and in vitr o, discussing the core essentials of background theory, instrumentation and computational algorithms. We discuss the resolution limit of light microscopy and the mathematical framework for localizing fluorescent dyes in space beyond this limit, including the precision obtainable as a function of the amount of light emitted from a dye, and how it leads to a fundamental compromise between spatial and temporal precision. The properties of a good dye are outlined, as are the features of PALM and STORM super-resolution microscopy and adaptations that may need to be made to experimental protocols to perform localization determination. We analyse briefly some of the methods of modern super-resolved optical imaging that work through reshaping point spread functions and how they utilize aspects of localization microscopy, such as stimulated depletion (STED) methods and MINFLUX, and summarize modern methods that push localization into 3D using non-Gaussian point spread functions. We report on current methods for analyzing localization data including determination of 2D and 3D diffusion constants, molecular stoichiometries, and performing cluster analysis with cutting-edge techniques, and finally discuss how these techniques may be used to enable important insight into a range of biological processes.
With the rapid development of biomedical software and hardware, a large amount of relational data interlinking genes, proteins, chemical components, drugs, diseases, and symptoms has been collected for modern biomedical research. Many graph-based lea rning methods have been proposed to analyze such type of data, giving a deeper insight into the topology and knowledge behind the biomedical data, which greatly benefit to both academic research and industrial application for human healthcare. However, the main difficulty is how to handle high dimensionality and sparsity of the biomedical graphs. Recently, graph embedding methods provide an effective and efficient way to address the above issues. It converts graph-based data into a low dimensional vector space where the graph structural properties and knowledge information are well preserved. In this survey, we conduct a literature review of recent developments and trends in applying graph embedding methods for biomedical data. We also introduce important applications and tasks in the biomedical domain as well as associated public biomedical datasets.
To minimize the accelerating amount of time invested in the biomedical literature search, numerous approaches for automated knowledge extraction have been proposed. Relation extraction is one such task where semantic relations between the entities ar e identified from the free text. In the biomedical domain, extraction of regulatory pathways, metabolic processes, adverse drug reaction or disease models necessitates knowledge from the individual relations, for example, physical or regulatory interactions between genes, proteins, drugs, chemical, disease or phenotype. In this paper, we study the relation extraction task from three major biomedical and clinical tasks, namely drug-drug interaction, protein-protein interaction, and medical concept relation extraction. Towards this, we model the relation extraction problem in multi-task learning (MTL) framework and introduce for the first time the concept of structured self-attentive network complemented with the adversarial learning approach for the prediction of relationships from the biomedical and clinical text. The fundamental notion of MTL is to simultaneously learn multiple problems together by utilizing the concepts of the shared representation. Additionally, we also generate the highly efficient single task model which exploits the shortest dependency path embedding learned over the attentive gated recurrent unit to compare our proposed MTL models. The framework we propose significantly improves overall the baselines (deep learning techniques) and single-task models for predicting the relationships, without compromising on the performance of all the tasks.
This article discusses the fundamental architectures for optical wireless systems for biomedical applications. After summarizing the main applications and reporting their requirements, {we describe the characteristics of the transdermal and in-body o ptical channels as well as the challenges that they impose in the design of communication systems.} In more detail, we provide three possible architectures for transdermal communications, namely electro-optical (EO) monitoring, opto-electrical (OE), and all-optical (AO) for neural stimulation, which are currently under investigation, whereas for in-body communications, we provide a nano-scale AO (NAO) concept. For each architecture, we discuss the main operation principles, the technology enablers, and research directions for their development. Finally, we highlight the necessity of designing an information-theoretic framework for the analysis and design of the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers, which takes into account the channels~characteristics.
