New methods for analyzing CyTOF data attempt to improve automation, scalability, performance and interpretation of data generated in large studies. Assigning individual cells into discrete groups of cell types (gating) involves time-consuming sequential manual steps, untenable for larger studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We introduce DeepCyTOF, a standardization approach for gating, based on deep learning techniques. DeepCyTOF requires labeled cells from only a single sample. It is based on domain adaptation principles and is a generalization of previous work that allows us to calibrate between a target distribution and a source distribution in an unsupervised manner. We show that DeepCyTOF is highly concordant (98%) with cell classification obtained by individual manual gating of each sample when applied to a collection of 16 biological replicates of primary immune blood cells, even when measured across several instruments. Further, DeepCyTOF achieves very high accuracy on the semi-automated gating challenge of the FlowCAP-I competition as well as two CyTOF datasets generated from primary immune blood cells: (i) 14 subjects with a history of infection with West Nile virus (WNV), (ii) 34 healthy subjects of different ages. We conclude that deep learning in general, and DeepCyTOF specifically, offers a powerful computational approach for semi-automated gating of CyTOF and flow cytometry data.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our codes and data are publicly available at https:\/\/github.com\/KlugerLab\/deepcytof.git.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Supplementary information<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btx448","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,7]],"date-time":"2017-07-07T15:12:30Z","timestamp":1499440350000},"page":"3423-3430","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":111,"title":["Gating mass cytometry data by deep learning"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Huamin","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Mathematics Program, Yale University, 51 Prospect Street, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Uri","family":"Shaham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistics, Yale University, 51 Prospect Street, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kelly P","family":"Stanton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Yale Cancer Center, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yi","family":"Yao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruth R","family":"Montgomery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuval","family":"Kluger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Mathematics Program, Yale University, 51 Prospect Street, New Haven, CT, USA"},{"name":"Department of Pathology and Yale Cancer Center, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA"},{"name":"Interdepartmental Program in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023051506344308600_btx448-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"228","DOI":"10.1038\/nmeth.2365","article-title":"Critical assessment of automated flow cytometry data analysis techniques","volume":"10","author":"Aghaeepour","year":"2013","journal-title":"Nat.
