Supervised machine learning methods—Support Vector Machines and Random Forest—are applied to identify sarcomeres, the highly regular structural units that compose myofibrils. For MATLAB implementation, feature engineering leverages physical properties of the experimental system. Class imbalance between positive and negative examples is mitigated by a redefined learning cost, enabling more reliable classification.","Technische Universit¨at Dresden Physics of Life  \nBereich Mathematik und Naturwissenschaften Biological Algorithms Group  \nFakult¨at Physik  \nMasterarbeit  \nzur Erlangung des Hochschulgrades  \nMaster of Science  \nim Studiengang  \nPhysik  \nIdentification and physical characterisation of sarcomere pattern formation using supervised machine  \nlearning  \nvorgelegt von  \nLeon Sbosny  \ngeboren am 8.9.1996 in Chemnitz  \neingereicht am 17.10.2022  \nErstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Benjamin M. Friedrich  \nZweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Marc Timme  \nAbstract  \nTo analyse the large amounts of image data that are generated by biologists with modern microscopes, machine learning algorithms became increasingly popular.  \nIn collaboration with Frank Schnorrer and Cl´ement Rodier at Institut de Biologie du D´eveloppement de Marseille, as well as Ian Estabrook at Physics of Life, TU Dresden, this thesis applies the supervised machine learning algorithms ‘Support Vector Machine’and ‘Random Forest’ to data obtained from fluorescence microscope images of myofibrillogenesis in Drosophila pupae with the aim to identify sarcomeres, the structures that makeup the highly regular myofibrils.  \nFor the implementation in MATLAB, methods such as ‘feature engineering’ are used to increase the performance by reinterpreting the input data and using physical characteristics of the sample system. The project also identifies the problem of class imbalance between positive and negative examples in the input data and counters it with a redefined learning cost.  \nIn conclusion, the use of machine learning algorithms for image analysis in biophysics is a very promising way to reduce manual labour. The choice of the best learning algorithm depends on the purpose the obtained output data should serve.  \n¨Uberblick  \nZur Auswertung der großen Mengen an Bilddaten, die Biologen mit heutigen Mikroskopenerzeugen, sind Methoden des maschinellen Lernens sehr interessant geworden. In Kollaboration mit Frank Schnorrer und Cl´ement Rodier vom Institut de Biologie du D´eveloppement de Marseille sowie Ian Estabrook von Physics of Life, TU Dresden, werden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit die ¨uberwachten Lernalgorithmen “Support Vector Machine”und “Random Forest” auf Daten angewendet, die aus Fluoreszenzmikroskopaufnahmen zur Bildung von Muskelfibrillen in Puppen von Drosophila gewonnen wurden. Das Zielist dabei, Sarkomere, die regelm¨aßig angeordneten Baueinheiten der Muskelfibrillen, zu erkennen.  \nBei der Umsetzung in MATLAB wird zur Erh¨ohung der Effizienz des Lernalgorithmus die Methode des “Feature Engineering” verwendet, um die Eingangsdaten unter Ber¨ucksichtigung der physikalischen Beschaffenheit des experimentellen Systems neu zu interpretieren. Zus¨atzlich besch¨aftigt sich das Projekt mit dem Problem ungleicher Anzahl von positiven und negativen Lernbeispielen, was durch Neudefinition der Lernkosten ausgeglichen wird.  \nInsgesamt verspricht maschinelles Lernen erhebliche Arbeitserleichterungen bei der Bildauswertung in der Biophysik. Dabei kommt es bei der Wahl geeigneter Lernalgorithmendarauf an, wof¨ur die Ausgabedaten verwendet werden sollen.  \nSelbstst¨andigkeitserkl¨arung  \nHiermit erkl¨are ich, dass ich diese Arbeit im Rahmen der Betreuung am Exzellenzcluster Physics of Life, TU Dresden, ohne unzul¨assige Hilfe Dritter verfasst und alle Quellen als solche gekennzeichnet habe.  \nOrt, Datum Leon Sbosny  \nAcknowledgements  \nAt this point I would like to thank Benjamin Friedrich and Ian Estabrook at Physics of Life, TU Dresden, for the opportunity to work on this project.  \nWithout the regular encouragement from Ben to try out new approaches and to look atthe subject from different perspectives as well as the constant support from Ian who introduced me to his research on myofibrillogenesis, this thesis would not have been possible.
