A novel multitask learning algorithm for tasks with distinct chemical space: zebrafish toxicity prediction as an example.

Data scarcity is one of the most critical issues impeding the development of prediction models for chemical effects. Multitask learning algorithms leveraging knowledge from relevant tasks showed potential for dealing with tasks with limited data. However, current multitask methods mainly focus on learning from datasets whose task labels are available for most of the training samples.

A Machine Learning Classifier for Predicting Stable MCI Patients Using Gene Biomarkers.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with an insidious onset and irreversible condition. Patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are at high risk of converting to AD. Early diagnosis of unstable MCI patients is therefore vital for slowing the progression to AD.
