Predicting lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster: A novel application of convolutional neural networks and zero‐inflated autoregressive conditional Poisson model
Abstract:A model to classify the lifespan of Drosophila, the fruit fly, into short-and long-lived categories based on a sleep characteristic, extracted from activity data, is developed using a two-stage process. Stage 1 models the per-minute activity counts of each fly using a zero-inflated autoregressive conditional Poisson model. These probabilities are allowed to vary hourly, reflecting the circadian and other cycles present in a fly's sleep architecture. A 5-day moving window is used to model data allowing the mode… Show more
