Adaptive immunity is mediated by lymphocyte B and T cells, which respectively express a vast and diverse repertoire of B cell and T cell receptors and, in conjunction with peptide antigen presentation through major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs), can recognize and respond to pathogens and diseased cells. In recent years, advances in deep sequencing have led to a massive increase in the amount of adaptive immune receptor repertoire data; additionally, proteomics techniques have led to a wealth of data on peptide-MHC presentation. These large-scale data sets are now making it possible to train machine and deep learning models, which can be used to identify complex and high-dimensional patterns in immune repertoires. This article introduces adaptive immune repertoires and machine and deep learning related to biological sequence data and then summarizes the many applications in this field, which span from predicting the immunological status of a host to the antigen specificity of individual receptors and the engineering of immunotherapeutics.

This study introduces a high-resolution wind nowcasting model designed for aviation applications at Madeira International Airport, a location known for its complex wind patterns. By using data from a network of six meteorological stations and deep learning techniques, the produced model is capable of predicting wind speed and direction up to 30-minute ahead with 1-minute temporal resolution. The optimized architecture demonstrated robust predictive performance across all forecast horizons.

Detection of early mild cognitive impairment (EMCI) is clinically challenging as it involves subtle alterations in multiple brain sub-anatomic regions. Among different brain regions, the corpus callosum and lateral ventricles are primarily affected due to EMCI. In this study, an improved deep canonical correlation analysis (CCA) based framework is proposed to fuse magnetic resonance (MR) image features from lateral ventricular and corpus callosal structures for the detection of EMCI condition.

The development of accurate methods for determining how alloy surfaces spontaneously restructure under reactive and corrosive environments is a key, long-standing, grand challenge in materials science. Using machine learning-accelerated density functional theory and rare-event methods, in conjunction with environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM), we examine the interplay between surface reconstructions and preferential segregation tendencies of CuNi(100) surfaces under oxidation conditions. Our modeling approach predicts that oxygen-induced Ni segregation in CuNi alloys favors Cu(100)-O c(2 × 2) reconstruction and destabilizes the Cu(100)-O (2√2 × √2)45° missing row reconstruction (MRR).

The hippocampus is a small, yet intricate seahorse-shaped tiny structure located deep within the brain's medial temporal lobe. It is a crucial component of the limbic system, which is responsible for regulating emotions, memory, and spatial navigation. This research focuses on automatic hippocampus segmentation from Magnetic Resonance (MR) images of a human head with high accuracy and fewer false positive and false negative rates.
