Effect of specific teaching techniques on cognitive learning, transfer of learning, and affective behavior of nurses in an in-service education setting.

To test the effects of different teaching techniques on learning, transfer of learning, and affective behavior of nurses, three hypotheses were developed based on Gagne's Theory of Knowledge Acquisition, Ellis' Theory of Transfer of Learning, and Bloom's Theory of Affective Consequences of Knowledge. The hypotheses tested were that an experimental (E) group will learn, transfer, and demonstrate affective behaviors significantly more than control groups. Subjects were 131 staff nurses. The E group (N=36) was taught by means of filmstrip with discussion (FD). Control groups II, III, and IV (N=33, 31, and 31 subjects, respectively) were taught by means of lecture alone (L), lecture with discussion (LD), and filmstrip alone (F), respectively. The content taught was Engel's Theory of Grief and Mourning Process. Pre- and posttests were done to obtain measures on learning and transfer. Results showed that the E group transferred significantly more than the L group; in general, all groups showed significant increases in learning and transfer; film groups transferred significantly more than the lecture groups; subjects preferred LD and FD significantly more than F or L. Implications were made for education of patients, students, and staff.

A robust transfer learning approach for high-dimensional linear regression to support integration of multi-source gene expression data.

Transfer learning aims to integrate useful information from multi-source datasets to improve the learning performance of target data. This can be effectively applied in genomics when we learn the gene associations in a target tissue, and data from other tissues can be integrated. However, heavy-tail distribution and outliers are common in genomics data, which poses challenges to the effectiveness of current transfer learning approaches. In this paper, we study the transfer learning problem under high-dimensional linear models with t-distributed error (Trans-PtLR), which aims to improve the estimation and prediction of target data by borrowing information from useful source data and offering robustness to accommodate complex data with heavy tails and outliers. In the oracle case with known transferable source datasets, a transfer learning algorithm based on penalized maximum likelihood and expectation-maximization algorithm is established. To avoid including non-informative sources, we propose to select the transferable sources based on cross-validation. Extensive simulation experiments as well as an application demonstrate that Trans-PtLR demonstrates robustness and better performance of estimation and prediction when heavy-tail and outliers exist compared to transfer learning for linear regression model with normal error distribution.

Transfer Learning across Material Properties Using Center-Environment Features: From Energetics to Mechanical Properties in Multicomponent Mo Alloys.

Transfer learning (TL) provides a viable approach to mitigate data scarcity in materials informatics. While conventional TL focuses on predicting identical properties across different systems, this work demonstrates a cross-property extension of TL from energy to mechanical properties via end-to-end model weight pre-training and fine-tuning: knowledge learned from predicting substitution energies is transferred to predict distinctly different mechanical properties, substantially improving computational efficiency given the typically higher cost of acquiring target-domain data. To accelerate computational alloy design, machine learning models using center-environment (CE) features were first developed to predict substitution energies of alloying elements in molybdenum (Mo)-based alloys. The Random Forest models achieved the optimal performance and transferability-R2 = 0.97, 〈MAE〉 = 0.11 eV, and 〈RMSE〉 = 0.16 eV-against the density functional theory (DFT) benchmark. The model dependency of feature selection and importance analysis was discussed. The transferability of the energy models was validated on unknown systems with new elements. Subsequently, the energy models were fine-tuned using limited mechanical property data to construct energy-to-property (E2P) TL models capable of predicting elastic properties, including bulk modulus, Young's modulus, shear modulus, and elastic constants, achieving an improved accuracy over the non-transferred ML by ∼10-30%, with its transferability verified by additional DFT calculations. This cross-property E2P transfer learning framework opens a new avenue for accelerating computational materials discovery and may be extended to other multiproperty predictions governed by similar physical principles.

Efficient Detection and Characterization of Targets of Natural Selection Using Transfer Learning.

Natural selection leaves detectable patterns of altered spatial diversity within genomes, and identifying affected regions is crucial for understanding species evolution. Recently, machine learning approaches applied to raw population genomic data have been developed to uncover these adaptive signatures. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are particularly effective for this task, as they handle large data arrays while maintaining element correlations. However, shallow CNNs may miss complex patterns due to their limited capacity, while deep CNNs can capture these patterns but require extensive data and computational power. Transfer learning addresses these challenges by utilizing a deep CNN pretrained on a large dataset as a feature extraction tool for downstream classification and evolutionary parameter prediction. This approach reduces extensive training data generation requirements and computational needs while maintaining high performance. In this study, we developed TrIdent, a tool that uses transfer learning to enhance detection of adaptive genomic regions from image representations of multilocus variation. We evaluated TrIdent across various genetic, demographic, and adaptive settings, in addition to unphased data and other confounding factors. TrIdent demonstrated improved detection of adaptive regions compared to recent methods using similar data representations. We further explored model interpretability through class activation maps and adapted TrIdent to infer selection parameters for identified adaptive candidates. Using whole-genome haplotype data from European and African populations, TrIdent effectively recapitulated known sweep candidates and identified novel cancer, and other disease-associated genes as potential sweeps.

Hepatocyte proteome destabilization and novel targets for PFASs unveiled through combined thermal proteome profiling and deep transfer learning.

Identifying protein targets for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) is essential to understand their toxicity and health risks. However, knowledge about their interacting proteins is limited since reliable identification methods are lacking. We developed an integrated approach combining thermal proteome profiling (TPP) and deep transfer learning (DTL) modeling to efficiently identify cellular targets of PFAS. TPP measured PFAS binding proteins and the affinities by nanospray liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, while DTL models were constructed to predict PFAS-protein affinities using neural network algorithms. TPP results revealed that PFASs uniquely destabilized the proteome of HepG2 cells, unlike the stabilizing effects by other xenobiotics. Key protein targets for three representative PFASs (PFOA, GenX and Novec 649) were identified, which exhibited weak binding affinities (median EC50 ≈ 30 μM). The number of protein targets increased with molecular weights among the three PFASs. The DTL model achieved a higher Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.89, and reduced mean squared errors by 54 % over previous models for drug-protein interactions. Notably, TPP and DTL jointly pinpointed ribosomal proteins as novel targets of GenX, potentially linking it to cell apoptosis through disrupted protein synthesis. Biolayer interferometry validated GenX binding to RPL4 protein, driven by electrostatic interactions and halogen bonds. This integrated approach effectively uncovers novel PFASs targets, advancing insights into their adverse health effects.

Transfer learning with multiomics integration and deep neural networks reveals drug resistance mechanisms in cancer.

Drug resistance remains one of the primary challenges in effective cancer therapy. In this study, we employed a deep neural network (DNN)-based transfer learning (TL) approach to predict drug response and uncover drug resistance mechanisms. We integrated gene expression, somatic mutation, and copy number aberration (CNA) data with drug response profiles using multi-omics integration (MI). We used the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) data for training and incorporated drugs with same pathways into the training models. We then evaluated drug response predictions on independent in-vivo PDX Encyclopedia (PDX) and ex-vivo the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets. In addition, we conducted pathway enrichment analyses to elucidate the mechanisms underlying drug resistance for paclitaxel, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), gemcitabine, and cetuximab. We also applied Fisher's exact test (FET) to assess potential associations between drug resistance and the presence of mutations or CNAs. Our pan-drug models outperformed other methods based on the area under the precision-recall curve (AUCPR). Our pathway enrichment analyses revealed LDHB-mediated pyruvate metabolism and FYN-mediated focal adhesion might have pivotal roles in paclitaxel resistance, while PINK1-mediated mitophagy might be critical in 5-FU resistance. In addition to transcriptional activation, FET suggested that CNAs in LDHB and PINK1 may also be associated with resistance to paclitaxel and 5-FU, respectively. Furthermore, enrichment results for paclitaxel and cetuximab indicated shared resistance mechanisms between the two drugs. Importantly, our findings are consistent with prior experimental studies, providing literature-based validation of our results. Overall, our DNN-based TL approach achieved strong predictive performance across PDX & TCGA datasets and enrichment analyses provided valuable biological insights into drug resistance mechanisms.

Three-dimensional U-Net with transfer learning improves automated whole brain delineation from MRI brain scans of rats, mice, and monkeys.

BACKGROUND: Automated whole-brain delineation (WBD) techniques often struggle to generalize across pre-clinical studies due to variations in animal models, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, and tissue contrasts. We developed a 3D U-Net neural network for WBD pre-trained on organophosphate intoxication (OPI) rat brain MRI scans. We used transfer learning (TL) to adapt this OPI-pretrained network to other animal models: rat model of Alzheimer's disease (AD), mouse model of tetramethylenedisulfotetramine (TETS) intoxication, and titi monkey model of social bonding. METHODS: We assessed an OPI-pretrained 3D U-Net across animal models under three conditions: (1) direct application to each dataset; (2) utilizing TL; and (3) training disease-specific U-Net models. For each condition, training dataset size (TDS) was optimized, and output WBDs were compared to manual segmentations for accuracy. RESULTS: The OPI-pretrained 3D U-Net (TDS = 100) achieved the best accuracy [median[min-max]] for the test OPI dataset with a Dice coefficient (DC) = [0.987 [0.977-0.992]] and Hausdorff distance (HD) = [0.86 [0.55-1.27]]mm. TL improved generalization across all models [AD (TDS = 40): DC = 0.987 [0.977-0.992] and HD = 0.72 [0.54-1.00]mm; TETS (TDS = 10): DC = 0.992 [0.984-0.993] and HD = 0.40 [0.31-0.50]mm; Monkey (TDS = 8): DC = 0.977 [0.968-0.979] and HD = 3.03 [2.19-3.91]mm], showing performance comparable to disease-specific networks. CONCLUSIONS: The OPI-pretrained 3D U-Net with TL achieved accuracy comparable to disease-specific networks with reduced training data (TDS ≤ 40 scans) across all models. Future work will focus on developing a multi-region delineation pipeline for pre-clinical MRI brain data, utilizing the proposed WBD as an initial step.

ExoShorkie: predicting RNA-seq coverage of exogenous genomes in yeast by transfer learning.

MOTIVATION: Predicting the RNA-seq coverage of native and exogenous sequences is central to many molecular- and synthetic-biology applications. Substantial progress has been made in developing methods to predict the RNA-seq coverage of native genomic sequences, with the recently developed Shorkie achieving state-of-the-art performance in yeast. However, prediction performance of these methods over exogenous DNA is still unknown. Recent studies measured RNA-seq coverage of large exogenous genomes in yeast, providing a unique opportunity to train machine-learning models on a large exogenous sequence space and to improve both prediction performance and our understanding of regulatory mechanisms. RESULTS: We introduce ExoShorkie, a method we developed by extending Shorkie through transfer learning across multiple exogenous RNA-seq datasets. We demonstrate that ExoShorkie significantly improves prediction performance on held-out exogenous genomes and outperforms both a native-genome-trained Shorkie baseline and Yorzoi, the only competing method for predicting exogenous RNA-seq coverage in yeast, in cross-validation and in leave-one-genome-out evaluations. Furthermore, through interpretability analyses we reveal biologically meaningful regulatory motifs and distinct regulatory rules in exogenous genomes in yeast, providing new insights into transcriptional regulation. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: ExoShorkie is available at https://github.com/OrensteinLab/ExoShorkie.

TL-HDMR: a transfer learning framework for advancing equitable causal inference reveals metabolic signatures of stroke across multiple ancestries.

The limited genetic diversity in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) poses a significant challenge to the generalizability and equity of biomedical discoveries. Most causal inferences, particularly from high-dimensional phenomes (e.g. metabolomics), are primarily based on European populations, and their applicability to other ancestries remains uncertain. Traditional multivariable Mendelian randomization (MVMR) methods further struggle in high-dimensional and correlated settings due to collinearity and model instability. To bridge this gap, we present a two-step transfer learning framework for high-dimensional MR (TL-HDMR), designed to enhance causal exposure detection in understudied populations. Our approach leverages the Minimax Concave Penalty for asymptotically unbiased estimation amidst exposure correlations. Crucially, we introduce two novel pre-transfer procedures-HDMR.TSD for sourcing beneficial data and HDMR.PRESSO for filtering pleiotropic instruments-to ensure robust knowledge transfer. Extensive simulations demonstrated TL-HDMR's superior performance in ROC curves and mean absolute error over alternative methods. When applied to identify causal metabolites for stroke across multi-ancestry cohorts (European, East Asian, South Asian, and African), TL-HDMR successfully pinpointed both shared and ethnic-specific causal biomarkers, showcasing its unique capability for equitable causal inference. This work provides a powerful statistical tool that not only addresses critical methodological challenges but also promotes inclusivity and fairness in human health research.

Common to rare transfer learning (CORAL) enables inference and prediction for a quarter million rare Malagasy arthropods.

DNA-based biodiversity surveys result in massive-scale data, including up to millions of species-of which, most are rare. Making the most of such data for inference and prediction requires modeling approaches that can relate species occurrences to environmental and spatial predictors, while incorporating information about their taxonomic or phylogenetic placement. Even if the scalability of joint species distribution models to large communities has greatly advanced, incorporating hundreds of thousands of species has not been feasible to date, leading to compromised analyses. Here we present a 'common to rare transfer learning' (CORAL) approach, based on borrowing information from the common species to enable statistically and computationally efficient modeling of both common and rare species. We illustrate that CORAL leads to much improved prediction and inference in the context of DNA metabarcoding data from Madagascar, comprising 255,188 arthropod species detected in 2,874 samples.

EvoSNR-Prom: Predicting promoters at single-nucleotide resolution with label-aware transfer learning of the pretrained EVO model.

The precise identification of promoters is crucial for understanding gene regulation. Deep learning methods have achieved considerable success in promoter prediction, yet most operate at the sequence level with coarse-grained labels. This means they label an entire DNA segment as either a "promoter" or "non-promoter," which results in a lack of the nucleotide-level resolution in prediction. In this study, we propose EvoSNR-Prom, a model designed for promoter prediction at single-nucleotide resolution. EvoSNR-Prom is built on the Evo foundation model and formulates promoter identification as a token-level sequence labeling problem, analogous to named entity recognition in natural language processing. To address the limited contextual information available in single-nucleotide tokenization, we introduce a lexicon-enhanced embedding strategy that incorporates biologically meaningful DNA lexicons, enriching contextual representations and improving the model's ability to capture complex sequence motifs. Furthermore, to enhance predictive performance on small size datasets, we integrate a label-aware transfer learning framework to leverage knowledge from well-annotated source species to a target organism. The results across various prokaryotic datasets show that EvoSNR-Prom achieves excellent performance. This work provides a valuable computational framework for the high-precision analysis of gene regulatory elements, contributing to the advancement of promoter prediction at single-nucleotide resolution.

The role of simulator immersion on learning and transfer of decision-making skill in sport.

Virtual reality has become popular in sport and other domains because it can immerse the user within a sporting context and solve logistical problems for additional off-field training. There is limited evidence, however, of whether immersion is crucial for learning and transfer. This study compared training of decision-making skill between 360-degree video virtual reality (360VR) and two-dimensional video. Twenty-eight Australian Rules Football players were randomly assigned to one of three training groups: 360VR, two-dimensional video, and control. Across four weeks, participants in the training groups were exposed to decision-making scenarios consisting of visual, contextual and auditory cues. Performance was assessed pre- and post-training with virtual reality and field-based decision-making tests. Results indicated that the two-dimensional video training group showed significantly superior decision-making in the field-based transfer test compared to 360VR and control groups post intervention. There was also indication that two-dimensional video training was superior to the control post intervention in the virtual reality test. Findings indicate that immersion created in virtual reality is not an underpinning mechanism for learning and transfer, rather the use of perceptual information is crucial. 360VR may facilitate uptake through engagement, but two-dimensional video is adequate for learning and transfer of decision-making to the field.

SIMS: A deep-learning label transfer tool for single-cell RNA sequencing analysis.

Cell atlases serve as vital references for automating cell labeling in new samples, yet existing classification algorithms struggle with accuracy. Here we introduce SIMS (scalable, interpretable machine learning for single cell), a low-code data-efficient pipeline for single-cell RNA classification. We benchmark SIMS against datasets from different tissues and species. We demonstrate SIMS's efficacy in classifying cells in the brain, achieving high accuracy even with small training sets (<3,500 cells) and across different samples. SIMS accurately predicts neuronal subtypes in the developing brain, shedding light on genetic changes during neuronal differentiation and postmitotic fate refinement. Finally, we apply SIMS to single-cell RNA datasets of cortical organoids to predict cell identities and uncover genetic variations between cell lines. SIMS identifies cell-line differences and misannotated cell lineages in human cortical organoids derived from different pluripotent stem cell lines. Altogether, we show that SIMS is a versatile and robust tool for cell-type classification from single-cell datasets.

Listening forward: emerging roles of bioacoustics in ecology, evolution, and conservation.

Bioacoustics is increasingly shifting from a mostly descriptive pursuit to one that can anticipate ecological change. Recent innovations-from autonomous recording units and edge-computing sensors to speech-inspired feature extraction and machine-learning techniques like transfer learning, unsupervised discovery, and explainable AI-are transforming the study of animal communication. These advances let us work at scales previously difficult to imagine. Automated species recognition, individual identification, and even tracking cultural evolution over decades are now within reach. Entire ecosystem soundscapes can be mapped with unprecedented resolution. Looking ahead, global listening networks, adaptive acoustic indices, and live biodiversity dashboards seem increasingly realistic. We may soon build digital models that simulate communication networks under future scenarios. Closer integration with genomics, physiology, and robotics could link vocal traits to their genetic, physiological, and ecological drivers. Challenges remain, including data governance, acoustic privacy, and equitable access to the planet's sonic heritage. Bioacoustics may be on the way to becoming a predictive, integrative science - one particularly well suited to monitoring, interpreting, and helping safeguard life's communication systems in a rapidly changing world.

Unraveling Neuronal Identities Using SIMS: A Deep Learning Label Transfer Tool for Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Analysis.

Large single-cell RNA datasets have contributed to unprecedented biological insight. Often, these take the form of cell atlases and serve as a reference for automating cell labeling of newly sequenced samples. Yet, classification algorithms have lacked the capacity to accurately annotate cells, particularly in complex datasets. Here we present SIMS (Scalable, Interpretable Machine Learning for Single-Cell), an end-to-end data-efficient machine learning pipeline for discrete classification of single-cell data that can be applied to new datasets with minimal coding. We benchmarked SIMS against common single-cell label transfer tools and demonstrated that it performs as well or better than state of the art algorithms. We then use SIMS to classify cells in one of the most complex tissues: the brain. We show that SIMS classifies cells of the adult cerebral cortex and hippocampus at a remarkably high accuracy. This accuracy is maintained in trans-sample label transfers of the adult human cerebral cortex. We then apply SIMS to classify cells in the developing brain and demonstrate a high level of accuracy at predicting neuronal subtypes, even in periods of fate refinement, shedding light on genetic changes affecting specific cell types across development. Finally, we apply SIMS to single cell datasets of cortical organoids to predict cell identities and unveil genetic variations between cell lines. SIMS identifies cell-line differences and misannotated cell lineages in human cortical organoids derived from different pluripotent stem cell lines. When cell types are obscured by stress signals, label transfer from primary tissue improves the accuracy of cortical organoid annotations, serving as a reliable ground truth. Altogether, we show that SIMS is a versatile and robust tool for cell-type classification from single-cell datasets.

Reliability-aware hierarchical learning for Chagas disease screening from 12-lead ECGs: tackling label uncertainty and class imbalance.

Objective.Chagas disease, a neglected tropical disease (NTD) with significant cardiovascular impact, remains underdiagnosed in resource-limited regions. Electrocardiogram (ECG) screening offers a low-cost tool for detecting cardiac involvement, yet algorithm development is challenged by label noise, data scarcity, and the latent nature of infection. This study proposes a robust ECG-based screening framework that explicitly addresses these constraints.Approach.We introduce aReliability-Aware Hierarchical Learningstrategy that calibrates supervision according to data provenance, prioritizing serology-confirmed labels over noisy self-reports. To mitigate data scarcity, we compare a specialized convolutional neural network (CNN) trained from scratch with a transfer learning approach based on a Spatio-Temporal ECG foundation Model (FM). Performance is evaluated across varying data scales, and the representation structure is analyzed to interpret model behavior.Main results.On the official hidden test set of the George B. Moody PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2025, our approach achieved a Challenge Score of 0.163. We observe that while the specialized CNN performs competitively in data-rich regimes, the FM exhibits superior robustness in extreme low-resource settings. Furthermore, performance reaches a plateau imposed by underlying disease physiology. Bimodal score distributions suggest that models distinguish established cardiomyopathy from indeterminate infection, which remains electrophysiologically indistinguishable from healthy controls.Significance.These findings clarify both the potential and intrinsic limits of ECG-based AI screening for NTD-associated cardiac involvement. Reliability-aware supervision and data-efficient transfer learning provide a practical framework toward scalable and clinically meaningful ECG screening systems in resource-constrained environments.

Deep learning-based annotation of plant abiotic stress resistance genes for crops.

The declining costs of DNA sequencing have expanded genomic data, crucial for understanding plant abiotic stress responses and crop improvement. However, accurate gene annotation remains challenging. To address this limitation, we propose the PASRGA, a deep learning approach that leverages transfer learning and contrastive learning to annotate genes related to drought, salt, cold, and UV resistance. PASRGA achieves high F1-scores, area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC), area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC), and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) in annotating stress resistance genes, significantly outperforming the general protein annotation model CLEAN, the plant phosphatase gene annotation model PF-NET, the top-ranked model in the CAFA5 challenge NetGO 4.0, and four traditional machine learning methods. Its effectiveness was further validated with a salt stress treatment experiment in Eutrema salsugineum. To facilitate crop breeding practices, we utilized PASRGA to annotate the genomes of 17 major crops. To improve accessibility and utility, we incorporated both manually curated and PASRGA-predicted gene data, together with the PASRGA tool, into the PlantASRG database (https://bioinfor.nefu.edu.cn/PlantASRG/). This comprehensive resource aims to support crop breeding initiatives and ensure food security.
