[Jun 24th 2020] LabMeeting: mCSM-membrane: predicting the effects of mutations on transmembrane proteins

Anna Visibelli (University of Siena) Jun 24, 2020 – 11:00 AM Conference Meeting Description Significant efforts have been invested into understanding and predicting the molecular consequences of mutations in protein coding regions, however nearly all approaches have been developed using globular, soluble proteins. These methods have been shown to poorly translate to studying the effects […]

[Jun 17th 2020] LabMeeting: Analyzing and Improving the Image Quality of StyleGAN

Giorgio Ciano (University of Florence) Jun 17, 2020 – 11:00 AM Conference Meeting Description The style-based GAN architecture (StyleGAN) yields state-of-the-art results in data-driven unconditional generative image modeling. We expose and analyze several of its characteristic artifacts, and propose changes in both model architecture and training methods to address them. In particular, we redesign generator […]
