Abstract

It has been a common practice to place electrodes based on external landmarks, rather than locating the appropriate organ first by imaging technuiqes such as CT scan, ultrasound, etc. Therefore, aside from abiding the cutaneous EGG (electrogastrography) electrodes placement rule, identification of its waveform should be performed to ease the validation of one's EGG recording method. This research focused on the assembly of EGG instrument, its performance testing, and its usage on local white rabbit (O. cuniculus). A total of 72 recordings obtained and processed. Data procession implies EGG parameterization based on segmentation and time domain analysis. Therefore this research gives an insight of an EGG recording method that could be applied on another preclinical, veterinary, and even for clinical examination.

Biology-in-the-loop: Amortized Adaptive Hit Discovery in CRISPR Screens

Many biological discovery problems require experiments to be selected sequentially under constrained budgets. CRISPR screening is a prominent example, as exhaustive perturbation testing is often infeasible and candidate perturbations must instead be prioritized over multiple experimental rounds. Despite the importance of this problem, existing benchmarks for adaptive hit discovery remain limited in scale and diversity. Here, we introduce AssayBench-Loop, a large-scale benchmark for adaptive hit discovery comprising 1,389 CRISPR screens across five phenotype categories. Beyond enabling systematic evaluation, its scale makes it possible to learn acquisition strategies across historical experiments. Building on this resource, we introduce AssayLoop, a sequential experimental design framework combining AssayFormer, a transformer-based amortized acquisition policy trained across historical screens to adapt from experimental feedback, with LLM-derived biological priors through an adaptive handoff. In this view, completed experiments become training data for learning how accumulated evidence should guide what to test next, while LLMs provide prior biological knowledge to seed the search. We further introduce AssayLLM, showing that the same principle can be extended directly to an LLM through task-specific post-training. On temporally held-out screens, AssayLoop achieves a 5.67-fold enrichment over random selection and recovers 27.7% of hits after assaying approximately 5% of the candidate library, outperforming existing adaptive-design methods and standalone LLMs, and AssayFormer alone. Performance improves with increasing historical training data and transfers to phenotype categories excluded from training. These results demonstrate the value of learning acquisition policies across historical experiments and combining them with broad biological priors for efficient adaptive hit discovery.

Multi-Task Bacterial Colony Detection and Classification Using YOLOv8 with Edge Optimization for Resource-Constrained Deployment

Manual counting and classification of bacterial colonies are critical yet labor-intensive tasks in microbiology, prone to human error particularly on densely populated plates. This work proposes a multi-task deep learning framework trained on the Annotated Germs for Automated Recognition (AGAR) dataset (18,000 images; 9,202 training / 3,067 testing) to automate Colony Forming Unit (CFU) enumeration and species classification. A custom multi-task CNN employing global regression served as the baseline, but demonstrated limited performance in clustered colony environments due to the absence of spatial localization. To address this, a YOLOv8 object detection architecture was adopted with high-resolution 1024x1024 inputs, enabling instance-level colony detection and label assignment. The model achieved a classification accuracy of 98.13% and a counting accuracy of 98.27% (within a 10-colony margin), demonstrating strong predictive capability. To bridge the gap between model performance and practical deployability, the trained model was optimized through unstructured and structured pruning, ONNX conversion, and reduced-precision inference (FP32, FP16, INT8). On a Raspberry Pi 4B, ONNX FP32 and FP16 variants offered the best balance between inference speed (~6.4s) and accuracy (MAE ~2.20). Unstructured pruning preserved predictive accuracy (MAE ~2.01) without runtime gains, while structured pruning resulted in significant accuracy degradation (MAE ~6.3), revealing the sensitivity of instance-level colony detection to architectural compression. These findings provide practical guidance for selecting optimization strategies in resource-constrained laboratory deployments.

ADMET-EvO: a self-evolving scientific agent for sustained research across heterogeneous tasks

Scientific agents can move beyond automated model building by using accumulated evidence to revise both their questions and experimental strategies. The challenge is sustaining this adaptation across heterogeneous tasks without overfitting decisions to internal validation. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) prediction provides a demanding setting across diverse assays, datasets and chemical domains. We therefore developed ADMET-EvO, an evidence-gated agent that formalizes endpoints, generates falsifiable hypotheses and tests interventions across data, feature and model axes. It carries supported, rejected and inconclusive outcomes forward to guide each new cycle. Across the 22-task Therapeutics Data Commons (TDC) ADMET benchmark, ADMET-EvO achieved the highest task-normalized score of 96.77. Evidence-guided selection reduced cumulative fitting time by 72.2% within a predefined non-inferiority margin. It also formalized 43 toxicity-related tasks and constructed endpoint-specific predictors. Together, these results show how ADMET-EvO can accumulate evidence, revise its strategy and expand its research scope over time.
