Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been extensively used to study protein dynamics and subsequently functions. However, MD simulations are often insufficient to explore adequate conformational space for protein functions within reachable timescales. Accordingly, many enhanced sampling methods, including variational autoencoder (VAE) based methods, have been developed to address this issue. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using VAE to assist in the exploration of protein conformational landscapes. Using three modeling systems, we showed that VAE could capture high-level hidden information which distinguishes protein conformations. These models could also be used to generate new physically plausible protein conformations for direct sampling in favorable conformational spaces. We also found that VAE worked better in interpolation than extrapolation and increasing latent space dimension could lead to a trade-off between performances and complexities.

Multimorbidity, the co-occurrence of multiple chronic conditions within the same individual, is increasing globally. This is a challenge for the single patients, as these individuals are subject to a heavy disease and treatment burden, yet evidence on the epidemiology and consequences of multimorbidity remains underexplored. Historically, studies aiming to understand multimorbidity patterns predominantly utilized cross-sectional data, neglecting the essential temporal dynamics which shape multimorbidity progression.

While single-cell experiments provide deep cellular resolution within a single sample, some single-cell experiments are inherently more challenging than bulk experiments due to dissociation difficulties, cost, or limited tissue availability. This creates a situation where we have deep cellular profiles of one sample or condition, and bulk profiles across multiple samples and conditions. To bridge this gap, we propose BuDDI (BUlk Deconvolution with Domain Invariance).

Odontocetes are capable of dynamically changing their echolocation clicks to efficiently detect targets, and learning their clicking strategy can facilitate the design of man-made detecting signals. In this study, we developed deep convolutional generative adversarial networks guided by an acoustic feature vector (AF-DCGANs) to synthesize narrowband clicks of the finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides sunameri) and broadband clicks of the bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). The average short-time objective intelligibility (STOI), spectral correlation coefficient (Spe-CORR), waveform correlation coefficient (Wave-CORR), and dynamic time warping distance (DTW-Distance) of the synthetic clicks were 0.

Motivation: Recent experimental developments enable single-cell multimodal epigenomic profiling, which measures multiple histone modifications and chromatin accessibility within the same cell. Such parallel measurements provide exciting new opportunities to investigate how epigenomic modalities vary together across cell types and states. A pivotal step in using this type of data is integrating the epigenomic modalities to learn a unified representation of each cell, but existing approaches are not designed to model the unique nature of this data type.
