Segmenting Microarrays with Deep Neural Networks

Abstract: Microarray images consist of thousands of spots, each of which corresponds to a different biological material. The microarray segmentation problem is to work out which pixels belong to which spots, even in presence of noise and corruption. We propose a solution based on deep neural networks, which achieves excellent results both on simulated and experimental data. We have made the source code for our solution available on Github under a permissive license.

“…In one application of deep learning techniques to this problem, a CNN was used for microarray image segmentation and demonstrated results in accuracy that resembled baseline approaches in accuracy, but with easier training and fewer requirements of computational sources. 29 Another opportunity for the application of CNNs to imagebased gene expression data has been RNA in situ hybridization, a tedious technique that enables localization and visualization of gene expression in a group of cells, tissue slice, or whole organism when such manipulations are allowed. This method facilitates powerful longitudinal studies that illustrate changes in expression patterns during development.…”

“…In microrarray analysis, detection of a signal and recognition of fluorescence spots can be challenging because of variation in spot size, shape, location, or signal intensity, and fluorescence signal intensity often corresponds poorly to gene or sequence expression level. In one application of deep learning techniques to this problem, a CNN was used for microarray image segmentation and demonstrated results in accuracy that resembled baseline approaches in accuracy, but with easier training and fewer requirements of computational sources …”
