[Apr 14th 2021] LabMeeting: Incorporating network based protein complex discovery into automated model construction

Federica Baccini (University of Siena) When: Apr 14, 2021 – 11:00 – 11:45 AM Where: Google meet link Description We propose a method for gene expression based analysis of cancer phenotypes incorporating network biology knowledge through unsupervised construction of computational graphs. The structural construction of the computational graphs is driven by the use of topological […]

[Feb 17th 2021] LabMeeting: Modeling polypharmacy side effects with graph convolutional networks

Niccolò Pancino (University of Siena) When: Feb 17, 2021 – 11:45 – 12:30 AM Where: Google meet link Description The use of drug combinations, or polypharmacy, is common to treat patients with complex diseases. However, a major consequence of polypharmacy is a much higher risk of adverse side effects for the patient. Polypharmacy side effects […]

[Feb 10th 2021] LabMeeting: Differentiable Rendering and Adversarial Learning

Enrico Meloni (University of Siena) When: Feb 10, 2021 – 11:00 – 11:45 AM Where: Google meet link Description Neural Models can be efficiently used for 2D and 3D reasoning. However, most 3D estimation models rely on supervised training, which comes with costly annotations of all observable 3D properties. Differentiable rendering enables 2D images to […]
