Identification of dequalinium as a potent inhibitor of human organic cation transporter 2 by machine learning based QSAR model by Fumihiro Yamane, Kenji Ikemura, Masayoshi Kondo, Manami Ueno, Masahiro Okuda

“…Using our QSAR model, we identified 162 candidate hOCT2 inhibitors among the FDA-approved drugs registered in the DrugBank database. After manual selection and in vitro assays, we found that dequalinium, a quaternary ammonium cation antimicrobial agent, is a potent hOCT2 inhibitor (IC50 = 88.16 ± 7.14 nM). …”

Research on credit card transaction security supervision based on PU learning by Renfeng CHEN, Hongbin ZHU

“…The complex and ever-evolving nature of credit card cash out methods and the emergence of various forms of fake transactions present challenges in obtaining accurate transaction information during customer interactions.In order to develop an accurate supervision method for detecting fake credit card transactions, a PU (positive-unlabeled learning) based security identification model for single credit card transactions was established.It was based on long-term transaction label data from cashed-up accounts in commercial banks’ credit card systems.A Spy mechanism was introduced into sample data annotation by selecting million positive samples of highly reliable cash-out transactions and 1.3 million samples of transactions to be labeled, and using a learner to predict the result distribution and label negative samples of non-cash-out transactions that were difficult to identify, resulting in 1.2 million relatively reliable negative sample labels.Based on these samples, 120 candidate variables were constructed, including credit card customer attributes, quota usage, and transaction preference characteristics.After importance screening of variables, nearly 50 candidate variables were selected.The XGBoost binary classification algorithm was used for model development and prediction.The results show that the proposed model achieve an identification accuracy of 94.20%, with a group stability index (PSI) of 0.10%, indicating that the single credit card transaction security identification model based on PU learning can effectively monitor fake transactions.This study improves the model discrimination performance of machine learning binary classification algorithm in scenarios where high-precision sample label data is difficult to obtain, providing a new method for transaction security monitoring in commercial bank credit card systems.…”

Signatures of Transient Overvoltages in Low Voltage Power Systems in Tea Factories and Their Implications on Insulation Deterioration and Allied Power Quality Issues by Earl A. R. L. Pannila, Mahesh Edirisinghe

“…Thus, this study mainly investigates the impact of switching transients generated by electromechanical machines in industrial power systems on insulation deterioration while taking transient overvoltages due to capacitor bank switching also to support. Transients with a high rate of rise are likely to catalyze the degradation of the insulation quality and break down the insulating material through ionization. …”
