Towards Minimizing the LiDAR Sim-to-Real Domain Shift: Object-Level Local Domain Adaptation for 3D Point Clouds of Autonomous Vehicles by Sebastian Huch, Markus Lienkamp

“…We propose a novel domain adaptation approach to address this challenge and to minimize the domain shift between simulated and real-world LiDAR data. Our approach adapts 3D point clouds on the object level by learning the local characteristics of the target domain. …”

Stepwise in vitro screening of MMV pathogen box compounds against Plasmodium falciparum to identify potent antimalarial candidates by Haddijatou Mbye, Fatoumata Bojang, Fatou Kene Jaiteh, Aminata Jawara, Bekai Njie, Simon Correa, Umberto D'Alessandro, Alfred Amambua-Ngwa

“…MMV634140 was potent against the laboratory-adapted 3D7 isolate, but 4 out of 10 natural Gambian isolates survived and replicated slowly despite 72 h of exposure to the compound, suggesting potential drug tolerance and risk of resistance development.These results emphasise the usefulness of in vitro testing as a starting point for drug discovery. …”

3D-Suspension culture platform for high throughput screening of neurotoxic chemicals using LUHMES dopaminergic neurons by Zhi-Bin Tong, Ruili Huang, John Braisted, Pei-Hsuan Chu, Anton Simeonov, David L. Gerhold

“…These gene expression increases were generally more dynamic in 2D adhesion cultures than in 3D cultures, but were generally comparable between 3D-suspension and 3D-u plate (low binding) platforms. Finally, we adapted 3D-suspension culture of dLUHMES and neural stem cells to 1536 well plates with a HTS cytotoxicity assay. …”

Anatomically guided self-adapting deep neural network for clinically significant prostate cancer detection on bi-parametric MRI: a multi-center study by Ahmet Karagoz, Deniz Alis, Mustafa Ege Seker, Gokberk Zeybel, Mert Yergin, Ilkay Oksuz, Ercan Karaarslan

“…Methods We used two samples: (i) Publicly available multi-center and multi-vendor Prostate Imaging: Cancer AI (PI-CAI) training data, consisting of 1500 bi-parametric MRI scans, along with its unseen validation and testing samples; (ii) In-house multi-center testing and transfer learning data, comprising 1036 and 200 bi-parametric MRI scans. We trained a self-adapting 3D nnU-Net model using probabilistic prostate masks on the PI-CAI data and evaluated its performance on the hidden validation and testing samples and the in-house data with and without transfer learning. …”
