SECOND WORKSHOP ON MACHINE LEARNING APPROACHES
IN HIGH RESOLUTION MICROSCOPY IMAGING
MLHRM 2019
www.mlhrm.net/2019

in conjunction with

2019 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM19)
November 18-21, 2019, San Diego, CA, USA
http://ieeebibm.org/BIBM2019/

Description:
With the advent of higher resolution imaging modalities, such as electron
microscopy (Cryo-EM, FIB-SEM) and fluorescence superresolution microscopy
(SRM), scientists are able to discern subcellular structures at the molecular
level leading to discoveries in basic and translational sciences as well as
applications in drug discovery and precision medicine. Visualizing cellular,
sub-cellular, and protein structures have been recently recognized with
Nobel Prizes in Chemistry, for super-resolution fluorescence microscopy in
2014 and for cryo-electron microscopy in 2017. SRM imaging achieves nanometer
resolution while cryo-EM allows imaging of structures in their native, frozen,
hydrated state by resolving structural details of 1.5 Angstrom. These imaging
modalities as well as many others rely on performant computational techniques
to reconstruct high resolution images in 2D and 3D for visualization and
further quantitative analysis. Advances in machine learning, particularly in
deep learning, has a great potential to contribute to high resolution
reconstruction process, particularly by improving particle detection and
classification steps of reconstruction.

This second workshop aims to bring the researchers from computational and
imaging fields together to have a wider focus on the computational approaches
that learn parameters from image data while maintaining an emphasis on
the leading edge machine learning methods such as deep learning for all
computational tasks: segmentation, classification, construction, and analysis
in high resolution imaging modalities (cryo-electron microscopy, FIB-SEM
tomography and fluorescence superresolution microscopy).

Topics:
Original contributions in applications of deep learning and other machine
learning methods in high resolution microscopy including but not limited
to noise reduction, detection, segmentation, classification, and
reconstruction of 2D and 3D models, as well as new approaches in 3D
reconstruction of single molecules are welcome. Contributions regarding
other related modalities and automated analysis methods such as single
molecule tracking, multiphoton imaging, and combining EM with STORM/PALM
will also be considered for inclusion in the workshop program.
