Very proud to present our latest work: 7 guiding questions to avoid data leakage in biological machine learning applications ✨🔍 We hope that reflecting on these questions helps researchers to identify issues or shortcuts leading to overly optimistic performance estimates. 📈🧑‍🔬

It's basically already old news but since Friday, DataSAIL is out as a preprint on @biorxivpreprint. Now, you can split all your #biological #data for #ML without caring about Information or Data Leakage. A summary in on the card below. Check it out: doi.org/10.1101/2023.11.15.5…

Large-scale disease association databases are used in data-centric precision medicine but biased towards organ- & symptom-based disease definitions. @dbblumenthal @UniFAU aims to develop network-based approaches to disentangle data into new subsets, thereby improving predictions.

Freie #Befristung, fester Prozentsatz Das #WissZeitVG ist zurück in der "Montagehalle". Doch auch der zweite Anlauf muss in einem unbefriedigenden Kompromiss enden. Es sei denn, Bund & Länder wagen den Paradigmenwechsel. Gastbeitrag von Tobias Rosefeldt. jmwiarda.de/2023/03/21/freie…

Happy and excited to finally share this project! We show conclusively that high accuracies of deep learning-based PPI prediction models are exclusively due to data leakage via sequence similarities and node degree information. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @itisalist @dbblumenthal
