Description

Sperm motility determining method and system based on neural network
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of artificial intelligence, in particular to a sperm motility determining method and system based on a neural network.
Background
Sperm motility is one of the important markers for male fertility. Healthy sperm should exhibit a high level of activity and strong exercise capacity, which helps them effectively advance, quickly approaching the ovum, and thus increase the chance of successful conception. By evaluating the vitality of sperms, the fertility of men can be judged, doctors can find out the potential infertility reasons, and a basis is provided for formulating a more accurate treatment scheme. In assisted reproductive technology, in vitro fertilization is widely used. This technique combines a female's ovum with a male's sperm in a laboratory to form a fertilized egg, which is then transplanted back into the female's uterus. In the process of in vitro fertilization, it is particularly important to select healthy sperm. However, the conventional manual sperm motility test method is tedious and time-consuming, and has the influence of subjective factors of different operators, which may lead to inconsistency of results. In addition, manual detection is susceptible to human error, thereby affecting the accuracy of the detection results. To address these problems, the introduction of automated techniques to detect sperm motility has become a trend.
The introduction of automatic sperm motility detection has important significance in reducing human error, and effectively improves the detection accuracy. Compared with manual observation, the method can accurately measure and record the motion parameters of the sperms by adopting a computer technology, and even can acutely capture tiny motion differences, thereby more comprehensively observing the motion characteristics of the sperms. This provides more detailed information for sperm quality assessment, further improving the reliability and accuracy of the results. The evaluation of judging sperm motility is mainly dependent on a plurality of parameters including sperm density, sperm motility, sperm morphology, sperm amount, and the like. Although sperm density and semen volume are relatively easy to quantify, sperm motility and sperm morphology lack uniform standards and therefore cannot be quantified directly. In this context, neural networks provide a new approach to assessing sperm motility by computer analysis.

Example 1
The invention provides a sperm motility assessment method, as shown in figure 1, comprising the following steps:
step 1, acquiring a dynamic video of a shot semen sample, selecting a plurality of video frames as key frames in the dynamic video, identifying the position of sperms in each key frame, and calculating a sample motion value of a sperm motion value;
in the evaluation of sperm motility in semen, a dynamic video of a semen sample needs to be acquired, the dynamic video can be shot by a camera on a microscope, and the movement condition of the sperm and the morphology of the sperm can be observed by the dynamic video. Because the frame rate of the video is higher, namely, the video contains a plurality of frames of video images in one second, if each frame is processed, the calculated amount is larger, the moving speed of sperms is slower, and the change of sperms in two adjacent frames is not large, based on the method, a plurality of video frames are selected from the dynamic video as key frames. In one embodiment, key frames are determined by selecting a video frame at intervals of a certain number of frames. The above method is too fixed and the different sperm activation conditions are different, in another embodiment, a segment of the video is selected, and then a key frame is determined according to the sperm activation region, which will be described in detail below.
It should be noted that, the determination of the key frame is two ways, wherein the first way is to determine the key frame by a certain number of frames, that is, two key frames are separated by a certain number of video frames, in this way, in the step 1 and the step 2, for different sperms, the determination of the position of the sperm and the extraction of the sperm image are both in the same key frame; in addition, there is a way in which the keyframes of the different sperm are different, and in this way, for the different sperm in step 1 and step 2, the position of the sperm and the extracted sperm image are both determined to be in the keyframe corresponding to the sperm.
Step 2, for the same sperm, a sperm image is arranged in each key frame, the sperm image in each key frame is extracted, convolution and pooling operations are carried out on the sperm images to obtain a plurality of sperm images with the same size, the sperm images with the same size form an image sequence of the sperm, and the image sequence of the sperm is input into a neural network model to obtain a sperm morphology score; taking the average value of the morphological scores of all sperms in the sample as a morphological value;
the morphological information of the sperms is mainly judged according to the appearance of the sperms, the swimming postures of the sperms at different moments are different, sperm images are extracted from key frames, and as the number of the key frames is multiple, one sperm has multiple sperm images, the multiple sperm images are input into a trained neural network model, and the grading of the sperms is obtained. The neural network model preferably uses a convolutional neural network model, and a ViT network model can also be used. The sperm images in each key frame are preferably feature extracted using a ViT network model to obtain a sequence, which is then input into a ViT network model.
And step 3, taking the sample motion value, the morphological value and other characteristic values of the sperm as the input of a deep neural network to obtain a sperm motility value.
The motility value, the morphology value and other characteristic values of the sperm are input into a deep neural network, so that the motility value of the sperm or the semen can be obtained. Wherein the other characteristic value of the sperm is one or more of pH value, density and sperm volume, and of course, the other characteristic value can be other characteristic values besides pH value, density and sperm volume. In an alternative, the deep neural network is replaced with an MLP.
Preferably, the selecting a plurality of video frames as key frames in the dynamic video, identifying the position of the sperm in each key frame, and calculating the motion value of the sperm, as shown in fig. 2, specifically:
step 11, selecting a segment from dynamic video, determining the length of the segment, identifying sperms in an image of the middle moment of the segment, dividing a moving area for each sperm according to the length and the maximum swimming speed of the sperm, judging whether the moving area of the sperm is overlapped with other sperms, if not, executing S12, otherwise, executing S13;
After the sperm sample is produced, the sperm can be photographed by a camera of a computer connected with a microscope, and the photographing time can be determined by a user. After shooting, a user can select one or more sections of clear sperm videos, the morphology of the sperm can be observed, the movement condition of the sperm can be observed in the sperm videos, and according to the standard of world health organization, about 60% of the sperm with normal motility are in a movement state, and the sperm with good state move forwards along a straight line.
The method comprises the steps of selecting a middle time image as a basis after obtaining a segmented segment, and determining a swimming area or a moving area of the sperm according to the length and the maximum swimming speed of the sperm. The length described herein may be either a time length or a frame length.
After the activity area of each sperm is obtained, judging whether the activity area of one sperm overlaps with the activity areas of other sperm, if not, only extracting the area of each image frame of the sperm in the segment, and then analyzing the activity area of the sperm; if there is overlap in this way, it is necessary to eliminate the influence of overlap on sperm trajectory analysis.
In the present invention, each sperm corresponds to an active region, and in each frame of the segmented image, the active region is unchanged, and after determining the active region of the sperm, the same region may be directly truncated from the other frames. This avoids repeated region identification for each frame, e.g., (0, 0), (0, 5), (5, 0), (5, 5) for one sperm, so that the same region for other frames can be directly truncated.
Step 12, calculating the gray level change of the same active area in two adjacent frames of images in the segment, determining a key frame according to the gray level change and the size of the active area, identifying the position of a sperm in the key frame, and fitting a sperm motion curve according to the position by adopting a least square method to obtain a sperm motion track; wherein the key frames of different sperm are different;
if the operation of identifying the sperm position is performed for each frame, the calculated amount is relatively large, and still taking 3s and 50fps as examples, 150 pictures need to be processed, and the operation is performed on only one sperm, if 150 sperm exist, the data amount is larger, and on the basis of the calculated amount, the key frames in the segments are determined according to the gray level change and the size of the active area for the sperm without overlapping the active area. The gray level change refers to the gray level change of the active area, the active areas of different sperms are different, and the corresponding gray level changes are also different. The key frames for each sperm are also different, e.g., 1, 51, 101 for sperm 1 and 1, 41, 81, 121 for sperm 2, based on gray scale change and size of the active area. And then determining the position of the sperm in the key frame according to the activity area, and after identifying the track of the activity area of the sperm in all the key frames of the sperm, fitting the motion curve of the sperm by adopting a least square method to obtain the motion track of the sperm. In an alternative embodiment, the fitting of the sperm motility curve uses polynomial fitting or gradient descent.
Taking the above sperm 1 and sperm 2 as examples, in the key frames 1, 51 and 101 of the sperm 1, the positions of the sperm are (2.5), (2.5,3) and (2.5 and 4), and the motion track of the sperm 1 is obtained by fitting. Likewise, the motion profile of sperm 2 may be fitted based on the position of sperm 2 at its corresponding keyframe.
There are various ways to identify the location of sperm, including but not limited to YOLOv4, YOLOv5, or R-CNN, and conventional image analysis methods can be used, as the invention is not limited in detail. Sperm has a certain length, and the position of the sperm head is used as the position of the sperm in the process of carrying out the position identification and the motion track fitting of the sperm unless otherwise specified in the invention.
Step 13, dividing the overlapped active areas into at least one group, wherein the active areas in the group are overlapped with at least one other active area in the group, obtaining an area to be identified according to the position relation of the active areas in the group, determining an interval according to the distance of sperms in the area to be identified, extracting frame images to be identified from the segments according to the interval, determining the area corresponding to each group in the frame images to be identified, identifying the position of sperms in the area corresponding to each group, and fitting the movement curve of the sperms by adopting a least square method according to the position to obtain the movement track of the sperms;
If the active areas of different sperms are overlapped, the positions to be identified are more accurate, so that the mutual influence of other sperms in the overlapped areas can be prevented.
One group corresponds to one region to be identified and one region to be identified corresponds to one interval, for example, sperm 3, 4, 5 are located in group 1, and the region to be identified can be obtained according to the activity region of sperm 3, 4, 5, and likewise, the positions of all frames in the segment of the region to be identified are the same. The presence of an active region in a group overlapping at least one other active region in the group means that each active region in the group overlaps at least one of the remaining active regions, e.g., sperm 3, 4, 5 are in group 1, and then the active region of sperm 3 overlaps the active region of at least one of sperm 4 and 5.
And then, recognizing the positions of all sperms in the group, and fitting the track of each sperm according to the position of each sperm to obtain the motion track of each sperm in the group.

In the above process, the active area of each frame is fixed in the image, but the change of gray scale of the active area is caused by the movement of sperm, and the sperm movement can be determined by the change of the active areas of two adjacent frames.
For a sperm, the active area has N pixel points, namely, the active area in each frame in the segment has N pixel points, then the change of the same pixel point in two adjacent frames is calculated, and the change of the pixel values of the N pixel points is accumulated to obtain the gray level change of the active area.
