The Transformative Storytelling Technique for Developing Guided Digital Narratives in Mental Health Support. Pilot study
<p>In a society where advances and innovations occur on a daily basis, the development of digital mental health tools continues at almost uncontrollable rates. Following trends in the utilization of storytelling across fields and reflecting on the lack of working models and frameworks for the application of storytelling for mental health support, the Transformative Storytelling Technique (TST) is designed and developed as a part of this work. This technique represents a new category for creating hybrid content to guide the experience of audiences, starting with the case of informal caregivers. In this pilot study, a TST caregiver story is assessed pre-post in an interventional study, investigating the potential role of mental health audio stories in supporting informal caregiver wellbeing. The anonymized raw dataset is available.</p>

Whole blood RNA-seq demonstrates an increased host immune response in individuals with cystic fibrosis who develop nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease
<p><strong>Background </strong></p> <p>Individuals with cystic fibrosis have an elevated lifetime risk of colonization, infection, and disease caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria. A prior study involving non-cystic fibrosis individuals reported a gene expression signature associated with susceptibility to nontuberculous mycobacteria pulmonary disease (NTM-PD). In this study, we determined whether people living with cystic fibrosis who progress to NTM-PD have a gene expression pattern similar to the one seen in the non-cystic fibrosis population. <strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Methods</strong></p> <p>We evaluated whole blood transcriptomics using bulk RNA-seq in a cohort of cystic fibrosis patients with samples collected closest in timing to the first isolation of nontuberculous mycobacteria. The study population included patients who did (n = 12) and did not (n = 30) develop NTM-PD following the first mycobacterial growth. Progression to NTM-PD was defined by a consensus of two expert clinicians based on reviewing clinical, microbiological, and radiological information. Differential gene expression was determined by DESeq2.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong></p> <p>No differences in demographics or composition of white blood cell populations between groups were identified at baseline. Out of 213 genes associated with NTM-PD in the non-CF population, only two were significantly different in our cystic fibrosis NTM-PD cohort. Gene set enrichment analysis of the differential expression results showed that CF individuals who developed NTM-PD had higher expression levels of genes involved in the interferon (α and γ), tumor necrosis factor, and IL6-STAT3-JAK pathways. <strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p> <p>In contrast to the non-cystic fibrosis population, the gene expression signature of patients with cystic fibrosis who develop NTM-PD is characterized by increased innate immune responses.</p>
DCASE 2023 Challenge Task 2 Development Dataset
<p><strong>Description</strong></p> <p>This dataset is the "development dataset" for the <a href="https://dcase.community/challenge2023/task-first-shot-unsupervised-anomalous-sound-detection-for-machine-condition-monitoring">DCASE 2023 Challenge Task 2 "First-Shot Unsupervised Anomalous Sound Detection for Machine Condition Monitoring"</a>.</p> <p>The data consists of the normal/anomalous operating sounds of seven types of real/toy machines. Each recording is a single-channel 10-second audio that includes both a machine's operating sound and environmental noise. The following seven types of real/toy machines are used in this task:</p> <ul> <li>ToyCar</li> <li>ToyTrain</li> <li>Fan</li> <li>Gearbox</li> <li>Bearing</li> <li>Slide rail</li> <li>Valve</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Overview of the task</strong></p> <p><strong>Anomalous sound detection (ASD) is the task of identifying whether the sound emitted from a target machine is normal or anomalous. </strong>Automatic detection of mechanical failure is an essential technology in the fourth industrial revolution, which involves artificial-intelligence-based factory automation. Prompt detection of machine anomalies by observing sounds is useful for monitoring the condition of machines. </p> <p>This task is the follow-up from DCASE 2020 Task 2 to DCASE 2022 Task 2. The task this year is to develop an ASD system that meets the following four requirements.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>1. Train a model using only normal sound (unsupervised learning scenario)</strong></p> <p>Because anomalies rarely occur and are highly diverse in real-world factories, it can be difficult to collect exhaustive patterns of anomalous sounds. Therefore, the system must detect unknown types of anomalous sounds that are not provided in the training data. This is the same requirement as in the previous tasks.</p> <p><strong>2. Detect anomalies regardless of domain shifts (domain generalization task) </strong></p> <p>In real-world cases, the operational states of a machine or the environmental noise can change to cause domain shifts. Domain-generalization techniques can be useful for handling domain shifts that occur frequently or are hard-to-notice. In this task, the system is required to use domain-generalization techniques for handling these domain shifts. This requirement is the same as in DCASE 2022 Task 2.</p> <p><strong>3. Train a model for a completely new machine type</strong></p> <p>For a completely new machine type, hyperparameters of the trained model cannot be tuned. Therefore, the system should have the ability to train models without additional hyperparameter tuning.</p> <p><strong>4. Train a model using only one machine from its machine type</strong></p> <p>While sounds from multiple machines of the same machine type can be used to enhance detection performance, it is often the case that sound data from only one machine are available for a machine type. In such a case, the system should be able to train models using only one machine from a machine type.</p> <p> </p> <p>The last two requirements are newly introduced in DCASE 2023 Task2 as the "first-shot problem".</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Definition</strong></p> <p>We first define key terms in this task: "machine type," "section," "source domain," "target domain," and "attributes.".</p> <ul> <li>"Machine type" indicates the type of machine, which in the development dataset is one of seven: fan, gearbox, bearing, slide rail, valve, ToyCar, and ToyTrain.</li> <li>A section is defined as a subset of the dataset for calculating performance metrics.</li> <li>The source domain is the domain under which most of the training data and some of the test data were recorded, and the target domain is a different set of domains under which some of the training data and some of the test data were recorded. There are differences between the source and target domains in terms of operating speed, machine load, viscosity, heating temperature, type of environmental noise, signal-to-noise ratio, etc.</li> <li>Attributes are parameters that define states of machines or types of noise.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Dataset</strong></p> <p>This dataset consists of seven machine types. For each machine type, one section is provided, and the section is a complete set of training and test data. For each section, this dataset provides (i) 990 clips of normal sounds in the source domain for training, (ii) ten clips of normal sounds in the target domain for training, and (iii) 100 clips each of normal and anomalous sounds for the test. The source/target domain of each sample is provided. Additionally, the attributes of each sample in the training and test data are provided in the file names and attribute csv files.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>File names and attribute csv files</strong></p> <p>File names and attribute csv files provide reference labels for each clip. The given reference labels for each training/test clip include machine type, section index, normal/anomaly information, and attributes regarding the condition other than normal/anomaly. The machine type is given by the directory name. The section index is given by their respective file names. For the datasets other than the evaluation dataset, the normal/anomaly information and the attributes are given by their respective file names. Attribute csv files are for easy access to attributes that cause domain shifts. In these files, the file names, name of parameters that cause domain shifts (domain shift parameter, dp), and the value or type of these parameters (domain shift value, dv) are listed. Each row takes the following format:</p> <p> [filename (string)], [d1p (string)], [d1v (int | float | string)], [d2p], [d2v]...</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Recording procedure</strong></p> <p>Normal/anomalous operating sounds of machines and its related equipment are recorded. Anomalous sounds were collected by deliberately damaging target machines. For simplifying the task, we use only the first channel of multi-channel recordings; all recordings are regarded as single-channel recordings of a fixed microphone. We mixed a target machine sound with environmental noise, and only noisy recordings are provided as training/test data. The environmental noise samples were recorded in several real factory environments. We will publish papers on the dataset to explain the details of the recording procedure by the submission deadline.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Directory structure</strong></p> <p>- /dev_data </p> <p> - /raw<br> - /fan<br> - /train (only normal clips) <br> - /section_00_source_train_normal_0000_<attribute>.wav <br> - ... <br> - /section_00_source_train_normal_0989_<attribute>.wav <br> - /section_00_target_train_normal_0000_<attribute>.wav <br> - ... <br> - /section_00_target_train_normal_0009_<attribute>.wav <br> - /test <br> - /section_00_source_test_normal_0000_<attribute>.wav <br> - ... <br> - /section_00_source_test_normal_0049_<attribute>.wav <br> - /section_00_source_test_anomaly_0000_<attribute>.wav <br> - ... <br> - /section_00_source_test_anomaly_0049_<attribute>.wav <br> - /section_00_target_test_normal_0000_<attribute>.wav<br> - ... <br> - /section_00_target_test_normal_0049_<attribute>.wav <br> - /section_00_target_test_anomaly_0000_<attribute>.wav <br> - ... <br> - /section_00_target_test_anomaly_0049_<attribute>.wav <br> - attributes_00.csv (attribute csv for section 00)<br> - /gearbox (The other machine types have the same directory structure as fan.) <br> - /bearing<br> - /slider (`slider` means "slide rail")<br> - /ToyCar <br> - /ToyTrain <br> - /valve </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Baseline system</strong></p> <p>The baseline system is available on the Github repository <a href="https://github.com/nttcslab/dase2023_task2_baseline_ae">dcase2023_task2_baseline_ae</a>.The baseline systems provide a simple entry-level approach that gives a reasonable performance in the dataset of Task 2.

Data from: Extensive, transient, and long-lasting gene regulation in a song-controlling brain area during testosterone-induced song development in adult female canaries
<p>Like other canary reproductive behaviors, song production occurs seasonally and can be triggered by gonadal hormones. Adult female canaries treated with testosterone sing first songs after four days and progressively develop towards typical canary song structure over several weeks, a behavior that females otherwise rarely or never show. We compared gene regulatory networks in the song-controlling brain area HVC after 1 hour (h), 3 h, 8 h, 3 days (d), 7d, and 14d testosterone treatment with placebo-treated control females, paralleling HVC and song development. Rapid onset (1 h or less) of extensive transcriptional changes (2,700 genes) preceded the onset of song production by four days. The highest level of differential gene expression occurred at 14 days when song structure was most elaborate, and song activity was highest. The transcriptomes changed massively several times during the two-week of song production. A total of 9,710 genes were differentially expressed, corresponding to about 60% of the known protein-coding genes of the canary genome. Most (99%) of the differentially expressed genes were regulated only at specific stages. The differentially expressed genes were associated with diverse biological functions, of which cellular level occurring early and nervous system level occurring primarily after prolonged testosterone treatment. Thus, the development of adult songs requires restructuring the entire HVC, including most HVC cell types, rather than altering only neuronal subpopulations or cellular components. Parallel regulation directly by androgen and estrogen receptors and by other hub genes such as the transcription factor SP8, which are under steroidogenic control, lead to massive transcriptomic and neural changes in the specific behavior-controlling brain areas and gradual seasonal occurrence of singing behavior.</p>

A quantitative assessment of ontogeny and moulting in a Cambrian radiodont and the evolution of arthropod development
<p>Radiodonta is a clade of stem euarthropods of central importance to our understanding of the evolution of this phylum. Radiodonts include some of the largest early Paleozoic animals, however little is known about their ontogeny. We present an analysis of moulting patterns and ontogeny in the radiodont <em>Stanleycaris</em> based on 263 exceptionally preserved specimens from the mid-Cambrian (Wuliuan) Burgess Shale. Ranging in size from 10 to 83mm, this constitutes the most extensive radiodont ontogenetic series known. Using a novel morphospace approach, we show that putative carcasses and exuviae can be quantitatively distinguished by the particular suites of structures preserved and their modes of preservation. We propose that <em>Stanleycaris</em>, and probably other radiodonts, moulted via a suture near the anterior of the trunk. Similar anterior moulting strategies, with a suture located at the head-trunk boundary, are shared with some Cambrian euarthropods and are potentially ancestral. Allometric analyses suggest that as <em>Stanleycaris</em> body size increases, the head sclerite and neck become relatively broader, while the trunk and flaps become slightly longer. The eyes developed precociously indicating an important role of visual processing in juveniles. Finally, we find evidence for an initial anamorphic developmental phase, where segment number increases at least from 11 or 12 up to 17, followed by an epimorphic phase, in which growth continued without segment addition. This is consistent with the hypothesis that finite post-embryonic segment addition (hemianamorphosis) is ancestral for arthropods and refines the timing of the origin of this important developmental mode. </p>
