Are CNNs useful for our data? #7

Closed cwalker4 closed 6 years ago

Some preliminary reading:

https://www.quora.com/Are-convolutional-neural-networks-useful-only-for-image-recognition-or-applications-having-spatial-features

My best guess based on skimming those links: yes, if our input data is something like a full genome where entries that are close together in our vector are also physically close to one another on the chromosome.

Not sure how useful this is for our data since I don't know all the bio. But this seems useful.

Here's a running list of deep learning applications in Bio (specifically in Genomics)

Here are some lecture slides on CNNs for genomics from CS273B. Our project advisor took this class, so it might be good to have a conversation with him about how we should be thinking about CNNs and whether we should consider using them.

no.
