摘要:

人工智能(AI)的进展在从声子显微镜(高频超声)数据中揭示潜在信息以识别癌细胞方面展现出巨大潜力。然而,这项技术受到“批次效应”的困扰,该效应源于每次实验之间不可避免的技术差异,产生了AI模型可能无意中学习到的混杂变量。因此,我们提出了一种多任务条件神经网络框架,通过去除混杂变量,同时实现批次间校准,以及对时间分辨声子衍生信号进行准确的细胞分类。我们通过在不同实验批次上进行训练和验证来验证我们的方法,在对背景、健康和癌症区域进行分类时,实现了89.22%的平衡精确率和89.07%的平均交叉验证精确率。分类可在0.5秒内完成,且仅需简单的先验批次信息即可进行多次批次校正。此外,我们扩展了模型以重建去噪信号,从而能够对指示疾病状态的显著特征进行物理解释,包括声速、声衰减和细胞对基底的粘附。

英文摘要:

Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) show great potential in revealing underlying information from phonon microscopy (high-frequency ultrasound) data to identify cancerous cells. However, this technology suffers from the 'batch effect' that comes from unavoidable technical variations between each experiment, creating confounding variables that the AI model may inadvertently learn. We therefore present a multi-task conditional neural network framework to simultaneously achieve inter-batch calibration, by removing confounding variables, and accurate cell classification of time-resolved phonon-derived signals. We validate our approach by training and validating on different experimental batches, achieving a balanced precision of 89.22% and an average cross-validated precision of 89.07% for classifying background, healthy and cancerous regions. Classification can be performed in 0.5 seconds with only simple prior batch information required for multiple batch corrections. Further, we extend our model to reconstruct denoised signals, enabling physical interpretation of salient features indicating disease state including sound velocity, sound attenuation and cell-adhesion to substrate.
