Purpose: To collect a dataset with adequate laryngoscopy images and identify the appearance of vocal folds and their lesions in flexible laryngoscopy images by objective deep learning models.
Methods: We adopted a number of novel deep learning models to train and classify 4549 flexible laryngoscopy images as no vocal fold, normal vocal folds, and abnormal vocal folds. This could help these models recognize vocal folds and their lesions within these images. Ultimately, we made a comparison between the results of the state-of-the-art deep learning models, and another comparison of the results between the computer-aided classification system and ENT doctors.
Results: This study exhibited the performance of the deep learning models by evaluating laryngoscopy images collected from 876 patients. The efficiency of the Xception model was higher and steadier than almost the rest of the models. The accuracy of no vocal fold, normal vocal folds, and vocal fold abnormalities on this model were 98.90 %, 97.36 %, and 96.26 %, respectively. Compared to our ENT doctors, the Xception model produced better results than a junior doctor and was near an expert.
Conclusion: Our results show that current deep learning models can classify vocal fold images well and effectively assist physicians in vocal fold identification and classification of normal or abnormal vocal folds.

Protein language models (PLMs) have demonstrated impressive success in modeling proteins. However, general-purpose "foundational" PLMs have limited performance in modeling antibodies due to the latter's hypervariable regions, which do not conform to the evolutionary conservation principles that such models rely on. In this study, we propose a transfer learning framework called Antibody Mutagenesis-Augmented Processing (AbMAP), which fine-tunes foundational models for antibody-sequence inputs by supervising on antibody structure and binding specificity examples.

Dissolution of CO in water followed by the subsequent hydrolysis reactions is of great importance to the global carbon cycle, and carbon capture and storage. Despite numerous previous studies, the reactions are still not fully understood at the atomistic scale. Here, we combined ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations with Markov state models to elucidate the reaction mechanisms and kinetics of CO in supercritical water both in the bulk and nanoconfined states.

Background: Large language models (LLMs) have been proposed as valuable tools in medical education and practice. The Chinese National Nursing Licensing Examination (CNNLE) presents unique challenges for LLMs due to its requirement for both deep domain-specific nursing knowledge and the ability to make complex clinical decisions, which differentiates it from more general medical examinations. However, their potential application in the CNNLE remains unexplored.

Complex deep learning models trained on very large datasets have become key enabling tools for current research in natural language processing and computer vision. By providing pre-trained models that can be fine-tuned for specific applications, they enable researchers to create accurate models with minimal effort and computational resources. Large scale genomics deep learning models come in two flavors: the first are large language models of DNA sequences trained in a self-supervised fashion, similar to the corresponding natural language models; the second are supervised learning models that leverage large scale genomics datasets from ENCODE and other sources.
