RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To introduce a tool (TensorFit) for ultrafast and robust metabolite fitting of MRSI data based on Torch's auto-differentiation and optimization framework. METHODS: TensorFit was implemented in Python based on Torch's auto-differentiation to fit individual metabolites in MRS spectra. The underlying time domain and/or frequency domain fitting model is based on a linear combination of metabolite spectroscopic response. The computational time efficiency and accuracy of TensorFit were tested on simulated and in vivo MRS data and compared against TDFDFit and QUEST. RESULTS: TensorFit demonstrates a significant improvement in computation speed, achieving a 165-times acceleration compared with TDFDFit and 115 times against QUEST. TensorFit showed smaller percentual errors on simulated data compared with TDFDFit and QUEST. When tested on in vivo data, it performed similarly to TDFDFit with a 2% better fit in terms of mean squared error while obtaining a 169-fold speedup. CONCLUSION: TensorFit enables fast and robust metabolite fitting in large MRSI data sets compared with conventional metabolite fitting methods. This tool could boost the clinical applicability of large 3D MRSI by enabling the fitting of large MRSI data sets within computation times acceptable in a clinical environment.

Preservatives are added as antimicrobial agents to extend the shelf life of meat. Adding preservatives to meat products can affect their flavor and nutrition. This review clarifies the effects of preservatives on metabolic pathways and network molecular transformations in meat products based on lipidomics, metabolomics and proteomics analyses. Preservatives change the nutrient content of meat products via altering ionic strength and pH to influence enzyme activity. Ionic strength in salt triggers muscle triglyceride hydrolysis by causing phosphorylation and lipid droplet splitting in adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase and triglyceride lipase. DisoLipPred exploiting deep recurrent networks and transfer learning can predict the lipid binding trend of each amino acid in the disordered region of input protein sequences, which could provide omics analyses of biomarkers metabolic pathways in meat products. While conventional meat quality assessment tools are unable to elucidate the intrinsic mechanisms and pathways of variables in the influences of preservatives on the quality of meat products, the promising application of omics techniques in food analysis and discovery through multimodal learning prediction algorithms of neural networks (e.g., deep neural network, convolutional neural network, artificial neural network) will drive the meat industry to develop new strategies for food spoilage prevention and control.
