SUMMARY:Hyeontae Jo\, AutoScore:A Machine Learning–Based Automatic Clinical Score Generator and Its Application to Mortality Prediction Using Electronic Health Records
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “AutoScore:A Machine Learning–Based Automatic Clinical Score Generator and Its Application to Mortality Prediction Using Electronic Health Records”\, Xie\, Feng\, et al.\, JMIR medical informatics 8.10 (2020): e21798. \nAbstract\nBackground: Risk scores can be useful in clinical risk stratification and accurate allocations of medical resources\, helping health providers improve patient care. Point-based scores are more understandable and explainable than other complex models and are now widely used in clinical decision making. However\, the development of the risk scoring model is nontrivial and has not yet been systematically presented\, with few studies investigating methods of clinical score generation using electronic health records. \nObjective: This study aims to propose AutoScore\, a machine learning-based automatic clinical score generator consisting of 6 modules for developing interpretable point-based scores. Future users can employ the AutoScore framework to create clinical scores effortlessly in various clinical applications. \nMethods: We proposed the AutoScore framework comprising 6 modules that included variable ranking\, variable transformation\, score derivation\, model selection\, score fine-tuning\, and model evaluation. To demonstrate the performance of AutoScore\, we used data from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center to build a scoring model for mortality prediction and then compared the data with other baseline models using the receiver operating characteristic analysis. A software package in R 3.5.3 (R Foundation) was also developed to demonstrate the implementation of AutoScore. \nResults: Implemented on the data set with 44\,918 individual admission episodes of intensive care\, the AutoScore-created scoring models performed comparably well as other standard methods (ie\, logistic regression\, stepwise regression\, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator\, and random forest) in terms of predictive accuracy and model calibration but required fewer predictors and presented high interpretability and accessibility. The nine-variable\, AutoScore-created\, point-based scoring model achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.780 (95% CI 0.764-0.798)\, whereas the model of logistic regression with 24 variables had an AUC of 0.778 (95% CI 0.760-0.795). Moreover\, the AutoScore framework also drives the clinical research continuum and automation with its integration of all necessary modules. \nConclusions: We developed an easy-to-use\, machine learning-based automatic clinical score generator\, AutoScore; systematically presented its structure; and demonstrated its superiority (predictive performance and interpretability) over other conventional methods using a benchmark database. AutoScore will emerge as a potential scoring tool in various medical applications.

SUMMARY:Olive Cawiding\, Power spectral estimate for discrete data
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Power spectral estimate for discrete data”\, Nobert Marwan and Tobias Braun\, Chaos (2023). \n  \nAbstract \n\nThe identification of cycles in periodic signals is a ubiquitous problem in time series analysis. Many real-world datasets only record a signal as a series of discrete events or symbols. In some cases\, only a sequence of (non-equidistant) times can be assessed. Many of these signals are furthermore corrupted by noise and offer a limited number of samples\, e.g.\, cardiac signals\, astronomical light curves\, stock market data\, or extreme weather events. We propose a novel method that provides a power spectral estimate for discrete data. The edit distance is a distance measure that allows us to quantify similarities between non-equidistant event sequences of unequal lengths. However\, its potential to quantify the frequency content of discrete signals has so far remained unexplored. We define a measure of serial dependence based on the edit distance\, which can be transformed into a power spectral estimate (EDSPEC)\, analogous to the Wiener–Khinchin theorem for continuous signals. The proposed method is applied to a variety of discrete paradigmatic signals representing random\, correlated\, chaotic\, and periodic occurrences of events. It is effective at detecting periodic cycles even in the presence of noise and for short event series. Finally\, we apply the EDSPEC method to a novel catalog of European atmospheric rivers (ARs). ARs are narrow filaments of extensive water vapor transport in the lower troposphere and can cause hazardous extreme precipitation events. Using the EDSPEC method\, we conduct the first spectral analysis of European ARs\, uncovering seasonal and multi-annual cycles along different spatial domains. The proposed method opens new research avenues in studying of periodic discrete signals in complex real-world systems.

SUMMARY:Yun Min Song\, A data-driven approach for timescale decomposition of biochemical reaction networks
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “A data-driven approach for timescale decomposition of biochemical reaction networks”\, Amir Akbari\, Zachary B. Haiman\, Bernhard O. Palsson\, bioRxiv (2023) \nAbstract \n\nUnderstanding the dynamics of biological systems in evolving environments is a challenge due to their scale and complexity. Here\, we present a computational framework for timescale decomposition of biochemical reaction networks to distill essential patterns from their intricate dynamics. This approach identifies timescale hierarchies\, concentration pools\, and coherent structures from time-series data\, providing a system-level description of reaction networks at physiologically important timescales. We apply this technique to kinetic models of hypothetical and biological pathways\, validating it by reproducing analytically characterized or previously known concentration pools of these pathways. Moreover\, by analyzing the timescale hierarchy of the glycolytic pathway\, we elucidate the connections between the stoichiometric and dissipative structures of reaction networks and the temporal organization of coherent structures. Specifically\, we show that glycolysis is a cofactor driven pathway\, the slowest dynamics of which are described by a balance between high-energy phosphate bond and redox trafficking. Overall\, this approach provides more biologically interpretable characterizations of network dynamics than large-scale kinetic models\, thus facilitating model reduction and personalized medicine applications. \n\n

SUMMARY:Eui Min Jung\, Antithetic proportional-integral feedback for reduced variance and improved control performance of stochastic reaction networks
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Antithetic proportional-integral feedback for reduced variance and improved control performance of stochastic reaction networks\n”\,Briat\, Corentin\, Ankit Gupta\, and Mustafa Khammash.\, Journal of The Royal Society Interface 15.143 (2018): 20180079 \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe ability of a cell to regulate and adapt its internal state in response to unpredictable environmental changes is called homeostasis and this ability is crucial for the cell’s survival and proper functioning. Understanding how cells can achieve homeostasis\, despite the intrinsic noise or randomness in their dynamics\, is fundamentally important for both systems and synthetic biology. In this context\, a significant development is the proposed antithetic integral feedback (AIF) motif\, which is found in natural systems\, and is known to ensure robust perfect adaptation for the mean dynamics of a given molecular species involved in a complex stochastic biomolecular reaction network. From the standpoint of applications\, one drawback of this motif is that it often leads to an increased cell-to-cell heterogeneity or variance when compared to a constitutive (i.e. open-loop) control strategy. Our goal in this paper is to show that this performance deterioration can be countered by combining the AIF motif and a negative feedback strategy. Using a tailored moment closure method\, we derive approximate expressions for the stationary variance for the controlled network that demonstrate that increasing the strength of the negative feedback can indeed decrease the variance\, sometimes even below its constitutive level. Numerical results verify the accuracy of these results and we illustrate them by considering three biomolecular networks with two types of negative feedback strategies. Our computational analysis indicates that there is a trade-off between the speed of the settling-time of the mean trajectories and the stationary variance of the controlled species; i.e. smaller variance is associated with larger settling-time.

SUMMARY:Dongju Lim\, Exact solution of a three-stage model of stochastic gene expression including cell-cycle dynamics
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Exact solution of a three-stage model of stochastic gene expression including cell-cycle dynamics”\, Wang\, Yiling\, et al.\, bioRxiv (2023): 2023-08. \n  \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe classical three-stage model of stochastic gene expression predicts the statistics of single cell mRNA and protein number fluctuations as a function of the rates of promoter switching\, transcription\, translation\, degradation and dilution. While this model is easily simulated\, its analytical solution remains an unsolved problem. Here we modify this model to explicitly include cell-cycle dynamics and then derive an exact solution for the time-dependent joint distribution of mRNA and protein numbers. We show large differences between this model and the classical model which captures cell-cycle effects implicitly via effective first-order dilution reactions. In particular we find that the Fano factor of protein numbers calculated from a population snapshot measurement are underestimated by the classical model whereas the correlation between mRNA and protein can be either over- or underestimated\, depending on the timescales of mRNA degradation and promoter switching relative to the mean cell-cycle duration time. \n

SUMMARY:Hyeongjun Jang\, Generalized Michaelis–Menten rate law with time-varying molecular concentrations
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Generalized Michaelis–Menten rate law with time-varying molecular concentrations”\, Lim\, Roktaek\, et al.\,bioRxiv (2022): 2022-01 \n  \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Michaelis–Menten (MM) rate law has been the dominant paradigm of modeling biochemical rate processes for over a century with applications in biochemistry\, biophysics\, cell biology\, and chemical engineering. The MM rate law and its remedied form stand on the assumption that the concentration of the complex of interacting molecules\, at each moment\, approaches an equilibrium much faster than the molecular concentrations change. Yet\, this assumption is not always justified. Here\, we relax this quasi-steady state requirement and propose the generalized MM rate law for the interactions of molecules with active concentration changes over time. Our approach for time-varying molecular concentrations\, termed the effective time-delay scheme (ETS)\, is based on rigorously estimated time-delay effects in molecular complex formation. With particularly marked improvements in protein– protein and protein–DNA interaction modeling\, the ETS provides an analytical framework to interpret and predict rich transient or rhythmic dynamics (such as autogenously-regulated cellular adaptation and circadian protein turnover)\, which goes beyond the quasi-steady state assumption.

SUMMARY:Olive Cawiding\, Decomposing predictability to identify dominant causal drivers in complex ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “ Decomposing predictability to identify dominant causal drivers in complex ecosystems ”\,Suzuki\, Kenta\, Shin-ichiro S. Matsuzaki\, and Hiroshi Masuya.\, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 119.42 (2022): e2204405119. \n  \nAbstract \n\nEcosystems are complex systems of various physical\, biological\, and chemical processes. Since ecosystem dynamics are composed of a mixture of different levels of stochasticity and nonlinearity\, handling these data is a challenge for existing methods of time series–based causal inferences. Here\, we show that\, by harnessing contemporary machine learning approaches\, the concept of Granger causality can be effectively extended to the analysis of complex ecosystem time series and bridge the gap between dynamical and statistical approaches. The central idea is to use an ensemble of fast and highly predictive artificial neural networks to select a minimal set of variables that maximizes the prediction of a given variable. It enables decomposition of the relationship among variables through quantifying the contribution of an individual variable to the overall predictive performance. We show how our approach\, EcohNet\, can improve interaction network inference for a mesocosm experiment and simulated ecosystems. The application of the method to a long-term lake monitoring dataset yielded interpretable results on the drivers causing cyanobacteria blooms\, which is a serious threat to ecological integrity and ecosystem services. Since performance of EcohNet is enhanced by its predictive capabilities\, it also provides an optimized forecasting of overall components in ecosystems. EcohNet could be used to analyze complex and hybrid multivariate time series in many scientific areas not limited to ecosystems.

SUMMARY:Seokhwan Moon\, The Internal Model Principle for Biomolecular Control Theory
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “ The Internal Model Principle for Biomolecular Control Theory ”\, Gupta\, Ankit\, and Mustafa Khammash.\, IEEE Open Journal of Control Systems 2 (2023): 63-69. \n  \nAbstract \nThe well-known Internal Model Principle (IMP) is a cornerstone of modern control theory. It stipulates the necessary conditions for asymptotic robustness of disturbance-prone dynamical systems by asserting that such a system must embed a subsystem in a feedback loop\, and this subsystem must be able to reduplicate the dynamic disturbance using only the regulated variable as the input. The insights provided by IMP can help in both designing suitable controllers and also in analysing the regulatory mechanisms in complex systems. So far the application of IMP in biology has been case-specific and ad hoc\, primarily due to the lack of generic versions of the IMP for biomolecular reaction networks that model biological processes. In this short article we highlight the need for an IMP in biology and discuss a recently developed version of it for biomolecular networks that exhibit maximal Robust Perfect Adaptation (maxRPA) by being robust to the maximum number of disturbance sources.

SUMMARY:Yun Min Song\, The singularity response reveals entrainment properties of the plant circadian clock
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “The singularity response reveals entrainment properties of the plant circadian clock”\, Masuda\, Kosaku\, et al.\, Nature Communications 12.1 (2021): 864. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCircadian clocks allow organisms to synchronize their physiological processes to diurnal variations. A phase response curve allows researchers to understand clock entrainment by revealing how signals adjust clock genes differently according to the phase in which they are applied. Comprehensively investigating these curves is difficult\, however\, because of the cost of measuring them experimentally. Here we demonstrate that fundamental properties of the curve are recoverable from the singularity response\, which is easily measured by applying a single stimulus to a cellular network in a desynchronized state (i.e. singularity). We show that the singularity response of Arabidopsis to light/dark and temperature stimuli depends on the properties of the phase response curve for these stimuli. The measured singularity responses not only allow the curves to be precisely reconstructed but also reveal organ-specific properties of the plant circadian clock. The method is not only simple and accurate\, but also general and applicable to other coupled oscillator systems as long as the oscillators can be desynchronized. This simplified method may allow the entrainment properties of the circadian clock of both plants and other species in nature.

SUMMARY:Hyun Kim\, scPrisma infers\, filters and enhances topological signals in single-cell data using spectral template matching
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “scPrisma infers\, filters and enhances topological signals in single-cell data using spectral template matching”\, Karin\, Jonathan\, Yonathan Bornfeld\, and Mor Nitzan.\, Nature Biotechnology (2023): 1-10. \nAbstract \n\n\n\nSingle-cell RNA sequencing has been instrumental in uncovering cellular spatiotemporal context. This task is challenging as cells simultaneously encode multiple\, potentially cross-interfering\, biological signals. Here we propose scPrisma\, a spectral computational method that uses topological priors to decouple\, enhance and filter different classes of biological processes in single-cell data\, such as periodic and linear signals. We apply scPrisma to the analysis of the cell cycle in HeLa cells\, circadian rhythm and spatial zonation in liver lobules\, diurnal cycle in Chlamydomonas and circadian rhythm in the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the brain. scPrisma can be used to distinguish mixed cellular populations by specific characteristics such as cell type and uncover regulatory networks and cell–cell interactions specific to predefined biological signals\, such as the circadian rhythm. We show scPrisma’s flexibility in incorporating prior knowledge\, inference of topologically informative genes and generalization to additional diverse templates and systems. scPrisma can be used as a stand-alone workflow for signal analysis and as a prior step for downstream single-cell analysis.

SUMMARY:Dae Wook kim\, "Wearable data science for personalized digital medicine"
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Wearable data science for personalized digital medicine” \nAbstract \nMillions of people currently use wearables such as the Apple Watch to monitor their physical activity\, heart rate\, and other physiological signals\, generating an unprecedented amount of wearable data. This presents an opportunity for digital medicine to advance precision medicine. However\, the noisy nature of this wearable data makes it appear unusable without new mathematical techniques to extract key signals from it. In this talk\, I will discuss several techniques we have developed for analyzing this noisy time-series data\, including the level-set Kalman filter-based data assimilation technique – a new state space estimation method that can estimate the phase of circadian rhythms. Additionally\, I will introduce a Kalman filter-assisted autoencoder used for anomaly detection in time-series data\, as well as feature engineering based on persistent homology and mathematical modeling. These techniques have practical applications\, such as sleep scoring\, detection of physiological changes related to COVID-19\, and daily mood prediction.

SUMMARY:Seokjoo Chae\, The energy cost and optimal design of networks for biological discrimination
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “The energy cost and optimal design of networks for biological discrimination”\, Yu\, Qiwei\, Anatoly B. Kolomeisky\, and Oleg A. Igoshin.\, Journal of the Royal Society Interface 19.188 (2022): 20210883. \nAbstract \n\n\nMany biological processes discriminate between correct and incorrect substrates through the kinetic proofreading mechanism that enables lower error at the cost of higher energy dissipation. Elucidating physico-chemical constraints for global minimization of dissipation and error is important for understanding enzyme evolution. Here\, we identify theoretically a fundamental error–cost bound that tightly constrains the performance of proofreading networks under any parameter variations preserving the rate discrimination between substrates. The bound is kinetically controlled\, i.e. completely determined by the difference between the transition state energies on the underlying free energy landscape. The importance of the bound is analysed for three biological processes. DNA replication by T7 DNA polymerase is shown to be nearly optimized\, i.e. its kinetic parameters place it in the immediate proximity of the error–cost bound. The isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRS) of E. coli also operates close to the bound\, but further optimization is prevented by the need for reaction speed. In contrast\, E. coli ribosome operates in a high-dissipation regime\, potentially in order to speed up protein production. Together\, these findings establish a fundamental error–dissipation relation in biological proofreading networks and provide a theoretical framework for studying error–dissipation trade-off in other systems with biological discrimination.

SUMMARY:Eui Min Jung\, Uncovering specific mechanisms across cell types in dynamical models
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Uncovering specific mechanisms across cell types in dynamical models”\, Hauber\, Adrian Lukas\, Marcus Rosenblatt\, and Jens Timmer.\, bioRxiv (2023): 2023-01. \nAbstract \nOrdinary differential equations are frequently employed for mathematical modeling of biological systems. The identification of mechanisms that are specific to certain cell types is crucial for building useful models and to gain insights into the underlying biological processes. Regularization techniques have been proposed and applied to identify mechanisms specific to two cell types\, e.g.\, healthy and cancer cells\, including the LASSO (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator). However\, when analyzing more than two cell types\, these approaches are not consistent\, and require the selection of a reference cell type\, which can affect the results. \nTo make the regularization approach applicable to identifying cell-type specific mechanisms in any number of cell types\, we propose to incorporate the clustered LASSO into the framework of ordinary differential equation modeling by penalizing the pairwise differences of the logarithmized fold-change parameters encoding a specific mechanism in different cell types. The symmetry introduced by this approach renders the results independent of the reference cell type. We discuss the necessary adaptations of state-of-the-art numerical optimization techniques and the process of model selection for this method. We assess the performance with realistic biological models and synthetic data\, and demonstrate that it outperforms existing approaches. Finally\, we also exemplify its application to published biological models including experimental data\, and link the results to independent biological measurements.

SUMMARY:Hyeontae Jo\,Parameter Estimation of Power Electronic Converters With Physics-Informed Machine Learning
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Parameter Estimation of Power Electronic Converters With Physics-Informed Machine Learning”\, Zhao\, Shuai\, et al.\, IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics 37.10 (2022): 11567-11578. \nAbstract \nPhysics-informed machine learning (PIML) has been emerging as a promising tool for applications with domain knowledge and physical models. To uncover its potentials in power electronics\, this article proposes a PIML-based parameter estimation method demonstrated by a case study of dc–dc Buck converter. A deep neural network and the dynamic models of the converter are seamlessly coupled. It overcomes the challenges related to training data\, accuracy\, and robustness which a typical data-driven approach has. This exemplary application envisions to provide a new perspective for tailoring existing machine learning tools for power electronics.

SUMMARY:Dongju Lim\, A multi-scale model explains oscillatory slowing and neuronal hyperactivity in Alzheimer’s disease
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “A multi-scale model explains oscillatory slowing and neuronal hyperactivity in Alzheimer’s disease”\, Alexandersen\, Christoffer G.\, et al.\, Journal of the Royal Society Interface 20.198 (2023): 20220607. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia and is linked to the spreading of pathological amyloid-β and tau proteins throughout the brain. Recent studies have highlighted stark differences in how amyloid-β and tau affect neurons at the cellular scale. On a larger scale\, Alzheimer’s patients are observed to undergo a period of early-stage neuronal hyperactivation followed by neurodegeneration and frequency slowing of neuronal oscillations. Herein\, we model the spreading of both amyloid-β and tau across a human connectome and investigate how the neuronal dynamics are affected by disease progression. By including the effects of both amyloid-β and tau pathology\, we find that our model explains AD-related frequency slowing\, early-stage hyperactivation and late-stage hypoactivation. By testing different hypotheses\, we show that hyperactivation and frequency slowing are not due to the topological interactions between different regions but are mostly the result of local neurotoxicity induced by amyloid-β and tau protein.

SUMMARY:Hyukpyo Hong\, Inference and uncertainty quantification of stochastic gene expression via synthetic models
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Inference and uncertainty quantification of stochastic gene expression via synthetic models”\, Öcal et al.\, J. R. Soc. Interface. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\nEstimating uncertainty in model predictions is a central task in quantitativebiology. Biological models at the single-cell level are intrinsically stochastic and nonlinear\, creating formidable challenges for their statistical estimation which inevitably has to rely on approximations that trade accuracy for tractability. Despite intensive interest\, a sweet spot in this trade-off has not been found yet. We propose a flexible procedure for uncertainty quantification in a wide class of reaction networks describing stochastic gene expression including those with feedback. The method is based on creating a tractable coarse-graining of the model that is learned from simulations\, a synthetic model\, to approximate the likelihood function. We demonstrate that synthetic models can substantially outperform state-of-the-art approaches on a number of non-trivial systems and datasets\, yielding an accurate and computationally viable solution to uncertainty quantification in stochastic models of gene expression.

SUMMARY:Seokjoo Chae\, Improving gene regulatory network inference and assessment: The importance of using network structure
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Improving gene regulatory network inference and assessment: The importance of using network structure”\, Escorcia-Rodríguez\, Juan M.\, et al.\, bioRxiv (2023): 2023-01. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\nGene regulatory networks are graph models representing cellular transcription events. Networks are far from complete due to time and resource consumption for experimental validation and curation of the interactions. Previous assessments have shown the modest performance of the available network inference methods based on gene expression data. Here\, we study several caveats on the inference of regulatory networks and methods assessment through the quality of the input data and gold standard\, and the assessment approach with a focus on the global structure of the network. We used synthetic and biological data for the predictions and experimentally-validated biological networks as the gold standard (ground truth). Standard performance metrics and graph structural properties suggest that methods inferring co-expression networks should no longer be assessed equally with those inferring regulatory interactions. While methods inferring regulatory interactions perform better in global regulatory network inference than co-expression-based methods\, the latter is better suited to infer function-specific regulons and co-regulation networks. When merging expression data\, the size increase should outweigh the noise inclusion and graph structure should be considered when integrating the inferences. We conclude with guidelines to take advantage of inference methods and their assessment based on the applications and available expression datasets. \n

SUMMARY:Hyun Kim\, Comparison of transformations for single-cell RNA-seq data
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Comparison of transformations for single-cell RNA-seq data”\,Ahlmann-Eltze\, Constantin\, and Wolfgang Huber\, Nature Methods (2023): 1-8. \nAbstract \n\n\n\nThe count table\, a numeric matrix of genes × cells\, is the basic input data structure in the analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing data. A common preprocessing step is to adjust the counts for variable sampling efficiency and to transform them so that the variance is similar across the dynamic range. These steps are intended to make subsequent application of generic statistical methods more palatable. Here\, we describe four transformation approaches based on the delta method\, model residuals\, inferred latent expression state and factor analysis. We compare their strengths and weaknesses and find that the latter three have appealing theoretical properties; however\, in benchmarks using simulated and real-world data\, it turns out that a rather simple approach\, namely\, the logarithm with a pseudo-count followed by principal-component analysis\, performs as well or better than the more sophisticated alternatives. This result highlights limitations of current theoretical analysis as assessed by bottom-line performance benchmarks.

SUMMARY:Yun Min Song\, The ups and downs of biological oscillators: A comparison of time-delayed negative feedback mechanisms
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “The ups and downs of biological oscillators: A comparison of time-delayed negative feedback mechanisms”\,Rombouts\, Jan\, Sarah Verplaetse\, and Lendert Gelens.\, bioRxiv (2023) \nAbstract \n\n\n\nMany biochemical oscillators are driven by the periodic rise and fall of protein concentrations or activities. A negative feedback loop underlies such oscillations. The feedback can act on different parts of the biochemical network. Here\, we mathematically compare time-delay models where the feedback affects production and degradation. We show a mathematical connection between the linear stability of the two models\, and derive how both mechanisms impose different constraints on the production and degradation rates that allow oscillations. We show how oscillations are affected by the inclusion of a distributed delay\, of double regulation (acting on production and degradation)\, and of enzymatic degradation.

SUMMARY:Candan Celik\, The effect of microRNA on protein variability and gene expression fidelity
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “The effect of microRNA on protein variability and gene expression fidelity”\, Hilfinger\, Andreas\, and Raymond Fan.\, Biophysical journal 122.3 (2023): 537a. \nAbstract \n\nSmall regulatory RNA molecules such as microRNA modulate gene expression through inhibiting the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA). Such post-transcriptional regulation has been recently hypothesized to reduce the stochastic variability of gene expression around average levels. Here we quantify noise in stochastic gene expression models with and without such regulation. Our results suggest that silencing mRNA post-transcriptionally will always increase rather than decrease gene expression noise when the silencing of mRNA also increases its degradation as is expected for microRNA interactions with mRNA. In that regime we also find that silencing mRNA generally reduces the fidelity of signal transmission from deterministically varying upstream factors to protein levels. These findings suggest that microRNA binding to mRNA does not generically confer precision to protein expression

SUMMARY:Olive Cawiding\, Single-sample landscape entropy reveals the imminent phase transition during disease progression
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Single-sample landscape entropy reveals the imminent phase transition during disease progression”\, Liu R\, Chen P\, Chen L.\, Bioinformatics. 2020 Mar 1;36(5):1522-1532. \nAbstract \n\n\nMotivation: The time evolution or dynamic change of many biological systems during disease progression is not always smooth but occasionally abrupt\, that is\, there is a tipping point during such a process at which the system state shifts from the normal state to a disease state. It is challenging to predict such disease state with the measured omics data\, in particular when only a single sample is available. \nResults: In this study\, we developed a novel approach\, i.e. single-sample landscape entropy (SLE) method\, to identify the tipping point during disease progression with only one sample data. Specifically\, by evaluating the disorder of a network projected from a single-sample data\, SLE effectively characterizes the criticality of this single sample network in terms of network entropy\, thereby capturing not only the signals of the impending transition but also its leading network\, i.e. dynamic network biomarkers. Using this method\, we can characterize sample-specific state during disease progression and thus achieve the disease prediction of each individual by only one sample. Our method was validated by successfully identifying the tipping points just before the serious disease symptoms from four real datasets of individuals or subjects\, including influenza virus infection\, lung cancer metastasis\, prostate cancer and acute lung injury.

SUMMARY:Eui Min Jung\, Antithetic Integral Feedback Ensures Robust Perfect Adaptation in Noisy Biomolecular Networks
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Antithetic Integral Feedback Ensures Robust Perfect Adaptation in Noisy Biomolecular Networks”\, Briat\, Corentin\, Ankit Gupta\, and Mustafa Khammash. Cell systems 2.1 (2016): 15-26. \nAbstract \n\nThe ability to adapt to stimuli is a defining feature of many biological systems and critical to maintaining homeostasis. While it is well appreciated that negative feedback can be used to achieve homeostasis when networks behave deterministically\, the effect of noise on their regulatory function is not understood. Here\, we combine probability and control theory to develop a theory of biological regulation that explicitly takes into account the noisy nature of biochemical reactions. We introduce tools for the analysis and design of robust homeostatic circuits and propose a new regulation motif\, which we call antithetic integral feedback. This motif exploits stochastic noise\, allowing it to achieve precise regulation in scenarios where similar deterministic regulation fails. Specifically\, antithetic integral feedback preserves the stability of the overall network\, steers the population of any regulated species to a desired set point\, and adapts perfectly. We suggest that this motif may be prevalent in endogenous biological circuits and useful when creating synthetic circuits.

SUMMARY:Seho Park\, Dynamical information enables inference of gene regulation at single-cell scale
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Dynamical information enables inference of gene regulation at single-cell scale”\, Zhang\, Stephen Y.\, and Michael PH Stumpf.\, bioRxiv (2023): 2023-01. \nAbstract \n\nCellular dynamics and emerging biological function are governed by patterns of gene expression arising from networks of interacting genes. Inferring these interactions from data is a notoriously difficult inverse problem that is central to systems biology. The majority of existing network inference methods work at the population level and construct a static representations of gene regulatory networks; they do not naturally allow for inference of differential regulation across a heterogeneous cell population. Building upon recent dynamical inference methods that model single cell dynamics using Markov processes\, we propose locaTE\, an information-theoretic approach which employs a localised transfer entropy to infer cell-specific\, causal gene regulatory networks. LocaTE uses high-resolution estimates of dynamics and geometry of the cellular gene expression manifold to inform inference of regulatory interactions. We find that this approach is generally superior to using static inference methods\, often by a significant margin. We demonstrate that factor analysis can give detailed insights into the inferred cell-specific GRNs. In application to two experimental datasets\, we recover key transcription factors and regulatory interactions that drive mouse primitive endoderm formation and pancreatic development. For both simulated and experimental data\, locaTE provides a powerful\, efficient and scalable network inference method that allows us to distil cell-specific networks from single cell data.

SUMMARY:Hyeontae Jo\, Characterizing possible failure modes in physics-informed neural networks
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Characterizing possible failure modes in physics-informed neural networks”\, Krishnapriyan\, Aditi\, et al.\, Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 34 (2021): 26548-26560. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRecent work in scientific machine learning has developed so-called physics-informed neural network (PINN) models. The typical approach is to incorporate physical domain knowledge as soft constraints on an empirical loss function and use existing machine learning methodologies to train the model. We demonstrate that\, while existing PINN methodologies can learn good models for relatively trivial problems\, they can easily fail to learn relevant physical phenomena for even slightly more complex problems. In particular\, we analyze several distinct situations of widespread physical interest\, including learning differential equations with convection\, reaction\, and diffusion operators. We provide evidence that the soft regularization in PINNs\, which involves PDE-based differential operators\, can introduce a number of subtle problems\, including making the problem more ill-conditioned. Importantly\, we show that these possible failure modes are not due to the lack of expressivity in the NN architecture\, but that the PINN’s setup makes the loss landscape very hard to optimize. We then describe two promising solutions to address these failure modes. The first approach is to use curriculum regularization\, where the PINN’s loss term starts from a simple PDE regularization\, and becomes progressively more complex as the NN gets trained. The second approach is to pose the problem as a sequence-to-sequence learning task\, rather than learning to predict the entire space-time at once. Extensive testing shows that we can achieve up to 1-2 orders of magnitude lower error with these methods as compared to regular PINN training. \n

SUMMARY:Dongju Lim\, Predicting Chronic Stress among Healthy Females Using Daily-Life Physiological and Lifestyle Features from Wearable Sensors
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Predicting Chronic Stress among Healthy Females Using Daily-Life Physiological and Lifestyle Features from Wearable Sensors”\, Magal\, Noa\, et al.\, Chronic Stress 6 (2022): 24705470221100987. \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\nBackground: Chronic stress is a highly prevalent condition that may stem from different sources and can substantially impact physiology and behavior\, potentially leading to impaired mental and physical health. Multiple physiological and behavioral lifestyle features can now be recorded unobtrusively in daily-life using wearable sensors. The aim of the current study was to identify a distinct set of physiological and behavioral lifestyle features that are associated with elevated levels of chronic stress across different stress sources. \nMethods: For that\, 140 healthy female participants completed the Trier inventory for chronic stress (TICS) before wearing the Fitbit Charge3 sensor for seven consecutive days while maintaining their daily routine. Physiological and lifestyle features that were extracted from sensor data\, alongside demographic features\, were used to predict high versus low chronic stress with support vector machine classifiers\, applying out-of-sample model testing. \nResults: The model achieved 79% classification accuracy for chronic stress from a social tension source. A mixture of physiological (resting heart-rate\, heart-rate circadian characteristics)\, lifestyle (steps count\, sleep onset and sleep regularity) and non-sensor demographic features (smoking status) contributed to this classification. \nConclusion: As wearable technologies continue to rapidly evolve\, integration of daily-life indicators could improve our understanding of chronic stress and its impact of physiology and behavior.

SUMMARY:Hyukpyo Hong\, Estimating and Assessing Differential Equation Models with Time-Course Data
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Estimating and Assessing Differential Equation Models with Time-Course Data”\, Wong\, Samuel WK\, Shihao Yang\, and S. C. Kou\, arXiv preprint arXiv:2212.10653 (2022). \nAbstract \n\nOrdinary differential equation (ODE) models are widely used to describe chemical or biological processes. This article considers the estimation and assessment of such models on the basis of time-course data. Due to experimental limitations\, time-course data are often noisy and some components of the system may not be observed. Furthermore\, the computational demands of numerical integration have hindered the widespread adoption of time-course analysis using ODEs. To address these challenges\, we explore the efficacy of the recently developed MAGI (MAnifold-constrained Gaussian process Inference) method for ODE inference. First\, via a range of examples we show that MAGI is capable of inferring the parameters and system trajectories\, including unobserved components\, with appropriate uncertainty quantification. Second\, we illustrate how MAGI can be used to assess and select different ODE models with time-course data based on MAGI’s efficient computation of model predictions. Overall\, we believe MAGI is a useful method for the analysis of time-course data in the context of ODE models\, which bypasses the need for any numerical integration.

SUMMARY:Seokjoo Chae\, Optimal information networks: Application for data-driven integrated health in populations
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Optimal information networks: Application for data-driven integrated health in populations”\, Servadio\, Joseph L.\, and Matteo Convertino\, Science Advances 4.2 (2018): e1701088. \nAbstract \n\n\n\nDevelopment of composite indicators for integrated health in populations typically relies on a priori assumptions rather than model-free\, data-driven evidence. Traditional variable selection processes tend not to consider relatedness and redundancy among variables\, instead considering only individual correlations. In addition\, a unified method for assessing integrated health statuses of populations is lacking\, making systematic comparison among populations impossible. We propose the use of maximum entropy networks (MENets) that use transfer entropy to assess interrelatedness among selected variables considered for inclusion in a composite indicator. We also define optimal information networks (OINs) that are scale-invariant MENets\, which use the information in constructed networks for optimal decision-making. Health outcome data from multiple cities in the United States are applied to this method to create a systemic health indicator\, representing integrated health in a city.

SUMMARY:Yun Min Song\, A scalable approach for solving chemical master equations based on modularization and filtering
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “A scalable approach for solving chemical master equations based on modularization and filtering\n”\, Fang\, Zhou\, Ankit Gupta\, and Mustafa Khammash.\, bioRxiv (2022). \nAbstract \n\nSolving the chemical master equation (CME) that characterizes the probability evolution of stochastically reacting processes is greatly important for analyzing intracellular reaction systems. Conventional methods for solving CMEs include the simulation-based Monte-Carlo methods\, the direct approach (e.g.\, the finite state projection)\, and so on; however\, they usually do not scale very well with the system dimension either in terms of accuracy or efficiency. To mitigate this problem\, we propose a new computational method based on modularization and filtering. Our method first divides the whole system into a leader system and several conditionally independent follower subsystems. Then\, we solve the CME by applying the Monte Carlo method to the leader system and the direct approach to the filtered CMEs that characterize the conditional probabilities of the follower subsystems. The system decomposition involved in our method is optimized so that all the subproblems above are low dimensional\, and\, therefore\, our approach scales more favorably with the system dimension. Finally\, we demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of our approach in high-dimensional estimation and inference problems using several biologically relevant examples.

SUMMARY:Hyun Kim\, Topological Data Analysis in Time Series: Temporal Filtration and Application to Single-Cell Genomics
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Topological Data Analysis in Time Series: Temporal Filtration and Application to Single-Cell Genomics”\n\, Lin\, Baihan.\, arXiv preprint arXiv:2204.14048 (2022). \nAbstract \n\nThe absence of a conventional association between the cell-cell cohabitation and its emergent dynamics into cliques during development has hindered our understanding of how cell populations proliferate\, differentiate\, and compete\, i.e. the cell ecology. With the recent advancement of the single-cell RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq)\, we can potentially describe such a link by constructing network graphs that characterize the similarity of the gene expression profiles of the cell-specific transcriptional programs\, and analyzing these graphs systematically using the summary statistics informed by the algebraic topology. We propose the single-cell topological simplicial analysis (scTSA). Applying this approach to the single-cell gene expression profiles from local networks of cells in different developmental stages with different outcomes reveals a previously unseen topology of cellular ecology. These networks contain an abundance of cliques of single-cell profiles bound into cavities that guide the emergence of more complicated habitation forms. We visualize these ecological patterns with topological simplicial architectures of these networks\, compared with the null models. Benchmarked on the single-cell RNA-seq data of zebrafish embryogenesis spanning 38\,731 cells\, 25 cell types and 12 time steps\, our approach highlights the gastrulation as the most critical stage\, consistent with consensus in developmental biology. As a nonlinear\, model-independent\, and unsupervised framework\, our approach can also be applied to tracing multi-scale cell lineage\, identifying critical stages\, or creating pseudo-time series.

SUMMARY:Aurelio A. de los Reyes V\, Bayesian Physics Informed Neural Networks for real-world nonlinear dynamical systems
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss about “Bayesian Physics Informed Neural Networks for real-world nonlinear dynamical systems”\, Linka\, Kevin\, et al.\, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering Volume 402\, 1 December 2022\, 115346 \nAbstract \n\n\n\n\nUnderstanding real-world dynamical phenomena remains a challenging task. Across various scientific disciplines\, machine learning has advanced as the go-to technology to analyze nonlinear dynamical systems\, identify patterns in big data\, and make decision around them. Neural networks are now consistently used as universal function approximators for data with underlying mechanisms that are incompletely understood or exceedingly complex. However\, neural networks alone ignore the fundamental laws of physics and often fail to make plausible predictions. Here we integrate data\, physics\, and uncertainties by combining neural networks\, physics informed modeling\, and Bayesian inference to improve the predictive potential of traditional neural network models. We embed the physical model of a damped harmonic oscillator into a fully-connected feed-forward neural network to explore a simple and illustrative model system\, the outbreak dynamics of COVID-19. Our Physics Informed Neural Networks seamlessly integrate data and physics\, robustly solve forward and inverse problems\, and perform well for both interpolation and extrapolation\, even for a small amount of noisy and incomplete data. At only minor additional cost\, they self-adaptively learn the weighting between data and physics. They can serve as priors in a Bayesian Inference\, and provide credible intervals for uncertainty quantification. Our study reveals the inherent advantages and disadvantages of Neural Networks\, Bayesian Inference\, and a combination of both and provides valuable guidelines for model selection. While we have only demonstrated these different approaches for the simple model problem of a seasonal endemic infectious disease\, we anticipate that the underlying concepts and trends generalize to more complex disease conditions and\, more broadly\, to a wide variety of nonlinear dynamical systems.
