Study on a visualization tool for the cell lineage problem

Based on the tool LineageD which we developed and evaluated, we added five different machine learning models in the system to help predict the cell lineage. With the tool, instead of building the hierarchy tree totally manually, biologists could check the predicted assignments, and correct them if there are mistakes. We designed visualizations of both the overview and the detailed view and organized the multiple models prediction results for biologists to refer to. The purpose of our study is to know how the system could help biologists to better make cell lineage with the help of machine learning,

基于我们所研发并评估的LineageD工具，我们在系统中集成了五种不同的机器学习模型，以协助预测细胞谱系。借助该工具，生物学家无需完全手动构建层次树，即可检查预测分配结果，并在发现错误时进行修正。我们设计了概览和详细视图的可视化工具，并对多个模型的预测结果进行了组织，以便生物学家参考。本研究旨在探究该系统如何协助生物学家在机器学习的辅助下，更有效地构建细胞谱系。
