We propose a neural network-based base caller that detects and accounts for stationary, kinetic, and mechanistic properties of the sequencing process, mapping what is observed at each sequence cycle in the assay data to the underlying sequence of nucleotides. The neural network-based base caller combines the tasks of feature engineering, dimension reduction, discretization, and kinetic modelling into a single end-to-end learning framework. In particular, the neural network-based base caller uses a combination of 3D convolutions, 1D convolutions, and pointwise convolutions to detect and account for assay biases such as phasing and prephasing effect, spatial crosstalk, emission overlap, and fading.

In an apparatus for identifying an obstacle around a vehicle, an acquirer is configured to acquire an image captured by a camera mounted to the vehicle. An extractor is configured to extract feature points of the image. A generator is configured to generate an optical flow that is a movement vector from each of the feature points of the image acquired before the current time to a corresponding feature point of the image acquired at the current time. A classifier configured to classify the optical flows into groups each corresponding to an object in the image based on pixel positions of the feature points. An identifier is configured to, for each of the groups that the optical flows are classified by the classifier into, identify whether an object corresponding to the group in the image is a stationary object or a moving object based on a degree of variability in lengths of the optical flows of the group.

This application provides a method for detecting images of testing object using hyperspectral imaging. Firstly, obtaining a hyperspectral imaging information according to a reference image, hereby, obtaining corresponded hyperspectral image from an input image and obtaining corresponded feature values for operating Principal components analysis to simplify feature values. Then, obtaining feature images by Convolution kernel, and then positioning an image of an object under detected by a default box and a boundary box from the feature image. By Comparing with the esophageal cancer sample image, the image of the object under detected is classifying to an esophageal cancer image or a non-esophageal cancer image. Thus, detecting an input image from the image capturing device by the convolutional neural network to judge if the input image is the esophageal cancer image for helping the doctor to interpret the image of the object under detected.

Techniques for quantifying accuracy of a prediction model that has been trained on a data set parameterized by multiple features are provided. The model performs in accordance with a theoretical performance manifold over an intractable input space in connection with the features. A determination is made as to which of the features are strongly correlated with performance of the model. Based on the features determined to be strongly correlated with performance of the model, parameterized sub-models are created such that, in aggregate, they approximate the intractable input space. Prototype exemplars are generated for each of the created sub-models, with the prototype exemplars for each created sub-model being objects to which the model can be applied to result in a match with the respective sub-model. The accuracy of the model is quantified using the generated prototype exemplars. A recommendation engine is provided for when there are particular areas of interest.
