    Abstract In real scenarios, graph-based multiview clustering has clearly shown popularity owing to the high efficiency in fusing the information from multiple views. Practically, the multiview graphs offer both consistent and inconsistent cues as they usually come from heterogeneous sources. Previous methods illustrated the importance of leveraging the multiview consistency and inconsistency for accurate modeling. However, when fusing the graphs, the inconsistent parts are generally ignored and hence the valued view-specific attributes are lost. To solve this problem, we propose an accurate complementarity learning (ACL) model for graph-based multiview clustering. ACL clearly distinguishes the consistent, complementary, and noise and corruption terms from the initial multiview graphs. In contrast to existing models that overlooked the complementary information, we argue that the view-specific characteristics extracted from the complementary terms are beneficial for affinity learning. In addition, ACL exploits only the positive parts of the complementary information for preserving the evidence on the positive sample relationship, and ignores the negative cues to avoid the vanishing of effective affinity strengths. This way, the learned affinity matrix is able to properly balance the consistent and complementary information. To solve the ACL model, we introduce an efficient alternating optimization algorithm with a varying penalty parameter. Experiments on synthetic and real-world databases clearly demonstrated the superiority of ACL.

    Abstract Superpixel segmentation has been of increasing importance in many computer vision applications recently. To handle the problem, most state-of-the-art algorithms either adopt a local color variance model or a local optimization algorithm. This paper develops a new approach, named differential evolutionary superpixels, which is able to optimize the global properties of segmentation by means of a global optimizer. We design a comprehensive objective function aggregating within-superpixel error, boundary gradient, and a regularization term. Minimizing the within-superpixel error enforces the homogeneity of superpixels. In addition, the introduction of boundary gradient drives the superpixel boundaries to capture the natural image boundaries, so as to make each superpixel overlaps with a single object. The regularizer further encourages producing similarly sized superpixels that are friendly to human vision. The optimization is then accomplished by a powerful global optimizer-differential evolution. The algorithm constantly evolves the superpixels by mimicking the process of natural evolution, while using a linear complexity to the image size. Experimental results and comparisons with eleven state-of-the-art peer algorithms verify the promising performance of our algorithm.

    Abstract Although desertification has greatly increased across the Mongolian Plateau during the last decades of the 20th century, recent satellite records documented increasing vegetation growth since the 21st century in some areas of the Mongolian Plateau. Compared to the study of desertification, the opposite characteristics of land use and vegetation cover changes and their different effects on regional land–atmosphere interaction factors still lack enough attention across this vulnerable region. Using long-term time-series multi-source satellite records and regional climate model, this study investigated the climate feedback to the observed land surface changes from the 1990s to the 2010s in the Mongolia Plateau. Model simulation suggests that vegetation greening induced a local cooling effect, while the warming effect is mainly located in the vegetation degradation area. For the typical vegetation greening area in the southeast of Inner Mongolia, latent heat flux increased over 2 W/m 2 along with the decrease of sensible heat flux over 2 W/m 2 , resulting in a total evapotranspiration increase by 0.1~0.2 mm/d and soil moisture decreased by 0.01~0.03 mm/d. For the typical vegetation degradation area in the east of Mongolia and mid-east of Inner Mongolia, the latent heat flux decreased over 2 W/m 2 along with the increase of sensible heat flux over 2 W/m 2 obviously, while changes in moisture cycling were spatially more associated with variations of precipitation. It means that precipitation still plays an important role in soil moisture for most areas, and some areas would be at potential risk of drought with the asynchronous increase of evapotranspiration and precipitation.

    Abstract Abstract Due to the unknown Triassic volcanism in the Junggar Basin, the Middle–Late Triassic sedimentary provenance in the southern Junggar Basin (SJB) has long been controversial. Detrital zircon grains from 13 samples of the Middle–Upper Triassic Xiaoquangou Group in the SJB were analyzed using zircon U–Pb geochronology to constrain the provenance of Triassic sedimentary rocks and to further understand their source-to-sink system. Comparison of detrital zircon U–Pb age distributions for 13 samples reveals that the Triassic age populations predominate in sediments of the northern Bogda Mountains, with subordinate in the southern Bogda Mountains, and no or minimal in the North Tianshan (NTS). Coupled with sandstone petrological, sedimentary geochemical and paleocurrent data, the Triassic detrital zircon grains of the Xiaoquangou Group in the SJB were probably input from the Bogda Mountains. As Pennsylvanian and Mississippian zircon grains are mainly derived from the NTS and Central Tianshan (CTS), the provenance of the Xiaoquangou Group includes the NTS, CTS and Bogda Mountains. But the different samples in different sink areas have different provenances, originating from at least four source-to-sink systems. The supply of sediments from the Bogda Mountains started in the Late Triassic, suggesting initial uplift of the Bogda Mountains.

    Abstract Forests offer significant climate mitigation benefits, but existing emissions reduction assessment methodologies in forest-based mitigation activities are not scalable, which limits the development of carbon offset markets. In this study, we propose a measurement method using optical satellite imagery and space LiDAR data fusion to assess forest emissions reduction. Compared with the ALS-based carbon stock density estimation method, our approach presented a strong scalability for mapping 10 m-resolution carbon stock at a large scale. It was observed that dense canopy top height estimated by combining GEDI and Sentinel-2 could accurately predict forest carbon stock measurements estimated by the ALS-based method ( <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mi>R</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></semantics></math> = 0.72). By conducting an on-site experiment of an ongoing forest carbon project in China, we found the consistency between the emissions reduction assessed by the data fusion measurement method (589,169 <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>tCO</mi><mn>2</mn></msub><mi mathvariant="normal">e</mi></mrow></semantics></math> ) and the official ex post-monitored emissions reduction in the monitoring report (598,442 <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>tCO</mi><mn>2</mn></msub><mi mathvariant="normal">e</mi></mrow></semantics></math> ). Our results demonstrated that forest carton stock estimation using optical satellite imagery and space LiDAR data fusion is efficient and economical for forest emissions reduction assessment. The acquisition of the data was more efficient over large areas with high frequencies using space-based technology. We ...

    Abstract Purpose: To make a comprehensive population-based study on risk and prognostic factors of brain metastasis from lung cancer.
    Methods: A total of 91,643 patients diagnosed with lung cancer from 2010 to 2018 were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End results (SEER) database. To analyze the risk and prognostic factors of brain metastasis among lung cancer patients, both Logistic and Cox regression methods were applied, respectively. Also, the competing risk regression model was performed to establish a new nomogram to predict cancer-specific survival (CSS).
    Results: Among the 91,643 lung cancer patients, 10,855 were found to have brain metastasis, with the incidence of 11.84%. The residence, age, race, income, primary site, histological type, extracranial metastasis, T stage, and N stage were all found to be independent risk factors of brain metastasis. The median overall survival (OS) of brain metastasis patients was limited to 6.08 months. By dividing patients randomly into a primary cohort with 7237 patients and a validation cohort with 3618 patients, a conclusion that the income, race, gender, age, histological type, extracranial metastasis, T stage, and N stage were all associated with the prognosis of brain metastasis was drawn. Our established primary-cohort-based new nomogram showed a good discriminative ability in predicting the probability of CSS among patients with brain metastasis, and the C-index was 0.62. Besides, the calibration curves for CSS also showed that the predicted survival by nomogram was consistent with the actual survival in the validation cohort.
    Conclusion: Our study shall provide a deeper insight into the risk factors and prognosis of brain metastasis among lung cancer patients.

    Abstract Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most deadly malignancy throughout the world. Extensive studies have shown that Krüppel-like factors (KLFs) play essential roles in cancer development. However, the function of KLF13 in CRC is unclear. Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas database was applied to analyze the expression of KLF13 in CRC and normal tissues. Lentivirus system was used to overexpress and to knock down KLF13. RT-qPCR and Western blot assays were performed to detect mRNA and protein expression. CCK-8, colony formation, cell cycle analysis and EdU staining were used to assess the in vitro function of KLF13 in CRC cells. Xenografter tumor growth was used to evaluate the in vivo effect of KLF13 in CRC. Cholesterol content was measured by indicated kit. Transcription activity was analyzed by luciferase activity measurement. ChIP-qPCR assay was performed to assess the interaction of KLF13 to HMGCS1 promoter. Results KLF13 was downregulated in CRC tissues based on the TCGA database and our RT-qPCR and Western blot results. Comparing with normal colorectal cells NCM460, the CRC cells HT-26, HCT116 and SW480 had reduced KLF13 expression. Functional experiments showed that KLF13 knockdown enhanced the proliferation and colony formation in HT-29 and HCT116 cells. Opposite results were observed in KLF13 overexpressed cells. Furthermore, KLF13 overexpression resulted in cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase, reduced EdU incorporation and suppressed tumor growth of HCT116 cells in nude mice. Mechanistically, KLF13 transcriptionally inhibited HMGCS1 and the cholesterol biosynthesis. Knockdown of HMGCS1 suppressed cholesterol biosynthesis and the proliferation of CRC cells with silenced KLF13. Furthermore, cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitor significantly retarded the colony growth in both cells. Conclusions Our study reveals that KLF13 acts as a tumor suppressor in CRC through negatively regulating HMGCS1-mediated cholesterol biosynthesis.

    Abstract The sinking of the Titanic has brought cruise ship safety onto the international agenda. However, different shipwrecks have been occurring in the cruise industry with relatively high frequency for more than one century due to human errors. In order to improve cruise ship safety, the International Maritime Organization and the Cruise Lines International Association introduced a set of safety enhancement policies and measurements. However, the expansion of ships and fairly weak safety regulations continue to pose risks of human life loss during cruise ship accidents, particularly in Asian regions. Asian countries have been constantly implementing various safety measures, but serious cruise ship accidents still occur from time to time, even after significant past experiences. Are the cruise ship accidents predominantly the result of human failures and organizational factors? This paper undertakes a detailed historical review of cruise ship accidents since 1972 through an intensive overview of the documents published by the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention and the Maritime Safety Committee. Furthermore, a set of case studies of representative cruise ship accidents are conducted as a part of this study. The outcomes of this study will help cruise shipping companies to better understand the factors influencing cruise ship accident occurrence and to construct appropriate safety policy measures, aiming to prevent cruise ship accidents in Asian regions.
