Quantifying cell morphology using images and machine learning has proven to be a powerful tool to study the response of cells to treatments. However, the models used to quantify cellular morphology are typically trained with a single microscopy imaging type and under controlled experimental conditio…
Prior work using Masked Autoencoders (MAEs) typically relies on random patch masking based on the assumption that images have significant redundancies across different channels, allowing for the reconstruction of masked content using cross-channel correlations. However, this assumption does not hold…
Most neural networks assume that input images have a fixed number of channels (three for RGB images). However, there are many settings where the number of channels may vary, such as microscopy images where the number of channels changes depending on instruments and experimental goals. Yet, there has…
Many new applications in drug discovery and functional genomics require capturing the morphology of individual imaged cells as comprehensively as possible rather than measuring one particular feature. In these so-called profiling experiments, the goal is to compare populations of cells treated with…
We present an active detection model for localizing objects in scenes. The model is class-specific and allows an agent to focus attention on candidate regions for identifying the correct location of a target object. This agent learns to deform a bounding box using simple transformation actions, with…
The Flickr30k dataset has become a standard benchmark for sentence-based image description. This paper presents Flickr30k Entities, which augments the 158k captions from Flickr30k with 244k coreference chains linking mentions of the same entities in images, as well as 276k manually annotated boundi…
