Synthetic data generation method for data-free knowledge distillation in regression neural networks

Knowledge distillation is the technique of compressing a larger neural network, known as the teacher, into a smaller neural network, known as the student, while still trying to maintain the performance of the larger neural network as much as possible.

Tissue fluidification promotes a cGAS–STING cytosolic DNA response in invasive breast cancer

The process in which locally confined epithelial malignancies progressively evolve into invasive cancers is often promoted by unjamming, a phase transition from a solid-like to a liquid-like state, which occurs in various tissues.

Quantitative image-based collagen structural features predict the reversibility of hepatitis C virus-induced liver fibrosis post antiviral therapies

The novel targeted therapeutics for hepatitis C virus (HCV) in last decade solved most of the clinical needs for this disease. However, despite antiviral therapies resulting in sustained virologic response (SVR), a challenge remains where the stage of liver fibrosis in some patients remains unchanged or even worsens, with a higher risk of cirrhosis, known as the irreversible group.

Improving transparency and representational generalizability through parallel continual learning

This paper takes a parallel learning approach in continual learning scenarios. We define parallel continual learning as learning a sequence of tasks where the data for the previous tasks, whose distribution may have shifted over time, are also available while learning new tasks.
