Summary: Prediction of genomic annotations from DNA sequences using deep learning is today becoming a flourishing field with many applications. Nevertheless, there are still difficulties in handling data in order to conveniently build and train models dedicated for specific end-user's tasks. keras_dna is designed for an easy implementation of Keras models (TensorFlow high level API) for genomics. It can handle standard bioinformatic files formats as inputs such as bigwig, gff, bed, wig, bedGraph or fasta and returns standardized inputs for model training. keras_dna is designed to implement existing models but also to facilitate the development of news models that can have single or multiple targets or inputs.
Availability And Implementation: Freely available with a MIT License using pip install keras_dna or cloning the github repo at https://github.com/etirouthier/keras_dna.git.
Supplementary Information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, with its advantages of non-destructive analysis, simple operation, and fast detection speed, has been widely applied in various fields. However, the effectiveness of current spectral analysis techniques still relies on complex preprocessing and feature selection of spectral data. While data-driven deep learning can automatically extract features from raw spectral data, it typically requires large amounts of labeled data for training, limiting its application in spectral analysis.

The use of routine adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is controversial in elderly patients with early-stage breast cancer (EBC). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant RT for elderly EBC patients using deep learning (DL) to personalize treatment plans. Five distinct DL models were developed to generate personalized treatment recommendations.

Background: Detection of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATA) on long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings is a prerequisite to reduce ATA-related adverse events. However, the burden of editing massive ECG data is not sustainable. Deep learning (DL) algorithms provide improved performances on resting ECG databases.

It poses challenges, however, due to higher error rates than DNA data, the complexities of transcript diversity, RNA editing events, etc. In this paper, we propose Clair3-RNA, the first deep learning-based variant caller tailored for lrRNA-seq data.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAlphaFold2 (AF2), a deep-learning based model that predicts protein structures from their amino acid sequences, has recently been used to predict multiple protein conformations. In some cases, AF2 has successfully predicted both dominant and alternative conformations of fold-switching proteins, which remodel their secondary and tertiary structures in response to cellular stimuli. Whether AF2 has learned enough protein folding principles to reliably predict alternative conformations outside of its training set is unclear.
