    Abstract Efficient and high-accuracy filtering of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) micrographs is an emerging challenge with the growing speed of data collection and sizes of datasets. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are machine learning models that have been proven successful in many computer vision tasks, and have been previously applied to cryo-EM micrograph filtering. In this work, we demonstrate that two strategies, fine-tuning models from pretrained weights and including the power spectrum of micrographs as input, can greatly improve the attainable prediction accuracy of CNN models. The resulting software package, Miffi, is open-source and freely available for public use (https://github.com/ando-lab/miffi).

    Abstract Mineralogy was an important driver for the environmental release of heavy metals. Therefore, the present work was conducted by coupling mineral liberation analyzer (MLA) with complementary geochemical tests to evaluate the geochemical behaviors and their potential environmental risks of heavy metals in the smelter contaminated soil. MLA analysis showed that the soil contained 34.0% of quartz, 17.15% of biotite, 1.36% of metal sulfides, 19.48% of metal oxides, and 0.04% of gypsum. Moreover, As, Pb, and Zn were primarily hosted by arsenopyrite (29.29%), galena (88.41%), and limonite (24.15%), respectively. The integrated geochemical results indicated that among the studied metals, Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb, and Zn were found to be more bioavailable, bioaccessible, and mobile. Based on the combined mineralogical and geochemical results, the environmental release of smelter-driven elements such as Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb, and Zn were mainly controlled by the acidic dissolution of minerals with neutralizing potential, the reductive dissolution of Fe/Mn oxides, and the partial oxidation of metal sulfide minerals. The present study results have confirmed the great importance of mineralogy analysis and geochemical approaches to explain the contribution of smelting activities to soil pollution risks.

    Abstract Since lager quantities of the zinc (Zn) smelting slags were traditionally dumped at the indigenous Zn smelting sites, the release characterization of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from the Zn smelting slags under various environmental conditions were of great significance for an environmental risk analysis. The acidification of the Zn smelting slags to pH= 4 and 6 would result in the leaching concentrations of Cd and Mn exceeding the fourth-class standard of surface water quality standard in China (GB3838-2002). Notably, most metals exhibited an amphoteric leaching pattern, where the highest leached concentrations of As, Cd, Cu, Mn, Pb, and Zn were 4.15, 4.21, 140.0, 78.1, 156.9 and 477.0 mg/L, respectively. In addition, the highest release of toxic metals within 96 h reached 0.17 % of As, 3.50 % of Cd, 2.77 % of Cu, 6.92 % of Mn, 0.13 % of Pb, and 2.57 % of Zn, respectively. The combined results of various characterization techniques suggested that the PTEs remobilization effected by rhizosphere-like organic acids were mainly controlled by the precipitation of newly formed Fe, Mn and Al (hydr) oxides and the complexation of organic ligands. The present study results could provide valuable insights into the long-term leaching behaviors of PTEs from the Zn smelting slags to reduce ecological hazard.

    Abstract Tensor regression models, such as CP regression and Tucker regression, have many successful applications in neuroimaging analysis where the covariates are of ultrahigh dimensionality and possess complex spatial structures. The high-dimensional covariate arrays, also known as tensors, can be approximated by low-rank structures and fit into the generalized linear models. The resulting tensor regression achieves a significant reduction in dimensionality while remaining efficient in estimation and prediction. Brain functional connectivity is an essential measure of brain activity and has shown significant association with neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. The symmetry nature of functional connectivity is a property that has not been explored in previous tensor regression models. In this work, we propose a sparse symmetric tensor regression that further reduces the number of free parameters and achieves superior performance over symmetrized and ordinary CP regression, under a variety of simulation settings. We apply the proposed method to a study of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and normal ageing from the Berkeley Aging Cohort Study (BACS) and detect two regions of interest that have been identified important to AD.

    Abstract Maintainability is an important universal quality characteristic that reflects the convenience, speed and economy of weapon and equipment maintenance. Making full use of multi-source data to accurately verify the degree to which the developed equipment meets the maintainability requirements is an important basis for equipment identification and acceptance. To solve the low reliability of equipment maintainability verification results caused by inaccurate comprehensive prior distribution obtained by fusing multi-source and different populations' prior data, a method of data conversion and fusion is proposed. A data conversion model based on the mean value ratio of failure mode maintenance data is constructed. The conversion factor is defined according to objective data to convert the different populations' prior data to the same populations. Next, a comparison of the prior distribution fitting performance of Bayes bootstrap, bootstrap, and two improved sample-resampling methods to are used obtain the closest fitting distribution to the true distribution. By constructing a multi-source data fusion model based on improved KL divergence, a symmetrical KL divergence is constructed to describe the similarity between each prior distribution and the field distribution for the weighted fusion of multi-source prior distribution in addition to determining and testing the normal comprehensive prior distribution. The results show that the conversion and fusion method effectively converts the multi-source and different populations' maintainability prior data and obtains an accurate, comprehensive prior distribution by fusion, laying the foundation for applying the Bayes test method to verify the quantitative index of equipment maintainability.

    Abstract Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures with excessive and abnormal neuronal discharges. Epileptogenesis is usually involved in neuropathological processes such as ion channel dysfunction, neuronal injury, inflammatory response, synaptic plasticity, gliocyte proliferation and mossy fiber sprouting, currently the pathogenesis of epilepsy is not yet completely understood. A growing body of studies have shown that epigenetic regulation, such as histone modifications, DNA methylation, noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and restrictive element-1 silencing transcription factor/neuron-restrictive silencing factor (REST/NRSF) are also involved in epilepsy. Through epigenetic studies, we found that the synaptic dysfunction, nerve damage, cognitive dysfunction and brain development abnormalities are affected by epigenetic regulation of epilepsy-related genes in patients with epilepsy. However, the functional roles of epigenetics in pathogenesis and treatment of epilepsy are still to be explored. Therefore, profiling the array of genes that are epigenetically dysregulated in epileptogenesis is likely to advance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of epilepsy and may for the amelioration of these serious human conditions provide novel insight into therapeutic strategies and diagnostic biomarkers for epilepsy to improve serious human condition.

    Abstract Optical lattices with spatially regular structures have recently attracted considerable attention across physics and optics communities. In particular, due to the increasing emergence of new structured light fields, diverse lattices with rich topology are being generated via multi-beam interference. Here, we report a specific ring lattice with radial lobe structures generated via superposition of two ring Airy vortex beams (RAVBs). We show that the lattice morphology evolves upon propagation in free space, switching from a bright-ring lattice to dark-ring lattice and even to fascinating multilayer texture. This underlying physical mechanism is related to the variation of the unique intermodal phase between the RAVBs as well as topological energy flow with symmetry breaking. Our finds provide an approach for engineering customized ring lattices to inspire a wide variety of new applications.

    Abstract The detection of abnormal lane-changing behavior in road vehicles has applications in traffic management and law enforcement. The primary approach to achieving this detection involves utilizing sensor data to characterize vehicle trajectories, extract distinctive parameters, and establish a detection model. Abnormal lane-changing behaviors can lead to unsafe interactions with surrounding vehicles, thereby increasing traffic risks. Therefore, solely focusing on individual vehicle perspectives and neglecting the influence of surrounding vehicles in abnormal lane-changing behavior detection has limitations. To address this, this study proposes a framework for abnormal lane-changing behavior detection. Initially, the study introduces a novel approach for representing vehicle trajectories that integrates information from surrounding vehicles. This facilitates the extraction of feature parameters considering the interactions between vehicles and distinguishing between different phases of lane-changing. The Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM) algorithm is then employed to construct an abnormal lane-changing behavior detection model. The results indicate that this framework exhibits high detection accuracy, with the integration of surrounding vehicle information making a significant contribution to the detection outcomes.
