    Abstract Homeowners play a critical role in the uptake of low-carbon technologies, yet little is known about the factors that underlie market acceptance of residential battery storage. This research integrates social-psychological, demographic and behavioural factors into a holistic model that predicts market acceptance. Previous research has indicated that social factors play a crucial role in the adoption of rooftop solar. Still, the influence of subjective norms on battery storage, a relatively invisible technology, has yet to be fully understood. An online survey from homeowners in Australia, a mature renewable energy market, is used to provide insights into market acceptance that are relevant to international energy markets. A two-step econometric model, using factor analysis and ordered logistic regression, was used for data analysis. The results show that subjective norms, moral emotions and an environmental self-identity are positively associated with market acceptance. Demographic factors, such as younger age and higher levels of education, predict market acceptance. Motives such as technical interest, autarky and load-shifting behaviours are also relevant. Several recommendations for policymakers and practitioners are offered to improve the acceptance of battery storage, including interventions that exploit social parameters and appeal to consumer psychology.

    Abstract Jamming attacks and unintentional radio interference are some of the most urgent threats harming the dependability of wireless communication and endangering the successful deployment of pervasive applications built on top of wireless networks. Unlike the traditional approaches focusing on developing jamming defense techniques without considering the location of jammers, we take a different viewpoint that the jammers’ position should be identified and exploited for building a wide range of defense strategies to alleviate jamming. In this paper, we address the problem of localizing multiple jamming attackers coexisting in wireless networks by leveraging the network topology changes caused by jamming. We systematically analyze the jamming effects and develop a framework that can partition network topology into clusters and can successfully estimate the positions of multiple jammers even when their jamming areas are overlapping. Our experiments on a multi-hop network setup using MicaZ sensor nodes validate the feasibility of real-time collection of network topology changes under jamming and our extensive simulation results demonstrate that our approach is highly effective in localizing multiple attackers with or without the prior knowledge of the order that the jammers are turned on.

    Abstract Motivation: Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) is a popular approach to determine DNA methylation of the CpG-rich regions of the genome. However, we observed that false positive differentially methylated sites (DMS) are also identified using the standard computational analysis.
    Results: During RRBS library preparation the MspI digested DNA undergo end-repair by a cytosine at the 3' end of the fragments. After sequencing, Trim Galore cuts these end-repaired nucleotides. However, Trim Galore fails to detect end-repair when it overlaps with the 3' end of the sequencing reads. We found that these non-trimmed cytosines bias methylation calling, thus, can identify DMS erroneously. To circumvent this problem, we developed improve-RRBS, which efficiently identifies and hides these cytosines from methylation calling with a false positive rate of maximum 0.5%. To test improve-RRBS, we investigated four datasets from four laboratories and two different species. We found non-trimmed 3' cytosines in all datasets analyzed and as much as >50% of false positive DMS under certain conditions. By applying improve-RRBS, these DMS completely disappeared from all comparisons.
    Availability and implementation: Improve-RRBS is a freely available python package https://pypi.org/project/iRRBS/ or https://github.com/fothia/improve-RRBS to be implemented in RRBS pipelines.

    Abstract This study analyzes the distribution of pathogenic bacteria and their antimicrobial susceptibilities in elderly patients with cardiovascular diseases to identify risk factors for pulmonary infections. A risk prediction model is established, aiming to serve as a clinical tool for early prevention and management of pulmonary infections in this vulnerable population. A total of 600 patients were categorized into infected and uninfected groups. Independent risk factors such as older age, diabetes history, hypoproteinemia, invasive procedures, high cardiac function grade, and a hospital stay of ≥10 days were identified through logistic regression. A predictive model was constructed, with a Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness of fit (P = 0.236) and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.795, demonstrating good discriminative ability. The model had 63.40% sensitivity and 82.80% specificity, with a cut-off value of 0.13. Our findings indicate that the risk score model is valid for identifying high-risk groups for pulmonary infection among elderly cardiovascular patients. The study contributes to the early prevention and control of pulmonary infections, potentially reducing infection rates in this vulnerable population.

    Abstract Hydrotalcite (HT) precursor was synthesized by coprecipitation method, and the surface of HT precursor was modified. The mixed metal oxide (MO) catalyst was prepared by calcination of HT precursor, which was used to remove toluene from VOCs assisted by NTP technology. The catalytic performance of MO catalyst was investigated. The results show that the MO catalyst with good structure can be obtained after calcination of HT precursor before and after modification. The results of catalytic performance test showed that the initial concentration of toluene was 700 ppm, the gas flow rate was 600 mL/min, and the reaction time was 30 min, SIE of NTP was above 3.0 kJ/L, the toluene conversion rate reached above 90%. MO assisted NTP had better catalytic performance with lower energy consumption. The toluene treatment capacity per unit energy consumption increased from 15.3% to 20.6%, which had an increase of 34.6%.

    Abstract Introduction: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is one of the important pathogenic agents of pediatric respiratory tract infection. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) is used to study autoimmune diseases, which can find potential hub genes. The diagnostic model based on hub genes and machine learning makes it possible to diagnose the extracellular immune response to RSV infection early.
    Objective: The aim of the present study was to identify potential immune, diagnose and treatment related genes expressed in RSV-infected cells.
    Methods: Firstly, gene expression data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Secondly, WGCNA was performed based on DEGs to obtain hub genes related to immunity score. Thirdly, protein-protein interaction (PPI) and the immune infiltration analysis of hub immune related genes were performed. Finally, diagnostic and immune related genes were identified by machine learning, followed by functional analysis.
    Results: Totally, 2063 DEGs were identified in the extracellular immune response to RSV infection. Among which, 10 key immune and diagnosis related genes were identified, including ITGA2B, GP9, ITGB3, SELP, PPBP, MPL, CXCL8, NFE2, PTGS1 and LY6G6F. Several immune/diagnosis related gene-immunocyte subtype networks were identified, such as CXCL8-Type 17 T helper cell, LY6G6F-CD56 bright natural killer cell, PPBP-activated CD4 T cell/T follicular helper cell, NFE2/PTGS1/SELP-activated dendritic cell, GP9/ITGA2B/MPL-activated CD8 T cell. ITGB3, MPL and PTGS1 could be considered as therapeutic targets. Some significantly enriched signaling pathways were identified, including hematopoietic cell lineage (involving GP9 and ITGA2B), cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (involving MPL), chemokine signaling pathway (involving PPBP) and arachidonic acid metabolism (involving PTGS1).
    Conclusions: The 10-immune related gene signature may be used as potential diagnostic markers for the extracellular immune response to RSV infection, which may provide a new field in searching for diagnostic and therapeutic molecules in the extracellular immune response to RSV infection.

    Abstract In view of the low level of gymnastics facilities monitoring and intelligent management of gymnastics venues, which cannot effectively manage gymnastics venues in real time, this paper proposes a method of gymnastics facilities monitoring and intelligent optimization distribution of gymnastics venues in the Internet of Things. This paper will build an information monitoring model, introduce a particle swarm optimization algorithm to participate in the location layout, and explore the actual effect of gymnastics and the Internet of Things. The research results show that (1) the system can measure the mechanical error of facilities and ensure that the controllable fault tolerance rate is less than 1%. (2) The quality of system monitoring is evaluated in accuracy, time, delay, and satisfaction, and the results are basically satisfactory, but the accuracy and time still need to be improved. (3) Using the evaluation system of sports facilities to test the temperature, humidity, facility pressure, and energy consumption suitable for gymnastics and to verify the injury tendency of athletes. When the damage tendency is between 70% and 100%, the actual damage rate is 1. (4) The speed of the PSO algorithm is faster than other methods, which is used to optimize the layout of gymnastics venues and has a certain role in promoting the construction of gymnastics venues. The system model designed in this paper performs well in gymnastics and needs to be further improved and optimized.

    Abstract Due to the importance of accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment of this condition, the medical world is searching for a solution for its early detection and efficient treatment. Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in modern society. With the development of computer science today, this issue can be resolved using computers. Data mining is one of the solutions for diagnosing this illness. One of the cutting-edge disciplines, data mining, can aid in better decision-making in many areas of medicine, including disease diagnosis and treatment. In order to improve diagnosis accuracy, a combination method using the evolutionary algorithms locust and support vector machine has been tested in this study. Use should be made of heart disease. Because of the hybrid nature of this approach, normalization is actually carried out in three steps: first, by using pre-processing operations to remove unknown and outlier data from the data set; second, by using the locust evolutionary algorithm to choose the best features from the available features; and third, by classifying the data set using a support vector machine. The accuracy criterion for the proposed method compared to Niobizin methods, neural networks, and J48 trees improved by 18 %, 30 %, and 24 %, respectively, after implementing it on the data set and comparing it with other algorithms used in the field of heart disease diagnosis.
