Application of Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm in Optimization of Generalized Nonlinear Muskingum Parameters ——A Case Study of the Luohe River by CHEN Haitao, ZHAO Zhijie

“…The Muskingum model plays an important role in river flood simulation,and its simulation accuracy relies on the optimal selection of parameters.To address the current challenges in parameter calibration for the Muskingum model,such as complex solution processes and low accuracy,the use of the Harris Hawks optimization (HHO) algorithm was proposed to optimize its parameters.HHO algorithm has a wide range of global search capabilities,with fewer parameters to be adjusted.Taking Luohe River,a tributary of the Yellow River,as the research object,the generalized nonlinear Muskingum model was used to simulate the flood in the Yiyang-Baimasi section of the river.The parameters were optimized by employing the HHO algorithm,particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm,and ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm,respectively.The results show that the generalized nonlinear Muskingum model based on the HHO algorithm achieved high simulation accuracy in the Yiyang-Baimasi section of the Luohe River,with a Min.SSD of 1 237 and the flood peak error (DPO) of only 5,outperforming those obtained through optimization using PSO algorithm and ACO algorithm.The results are suitable for application in flood forecasting in the Yiyang-Baimasi section of the Luohe River.…”

De la cassette au fichier numérique : enjeux de l’archivage, du partage et de la restitution des archives orales enregistrées au Niger by Véronique Ginouvès, Ibrahim Moussa

“…While considering the restitution to the field of collections recorded on the Nigerian territory and preserved in France, the authors adopt a comprehensive and continuous approach to take into account a decisive paradigm shift: the understanding of analogue archives converted into digital format and their production in a colonial context with a view to postcolonial use. In this endeavour, Digital Humanities play a facilitating role by promoting the analysis, comparison and sharing of sound archives among all relevant stakeholders. …”

FBXW7 metabolic reprogramming inhibits the development of colon cancer by down-regulating the activity of arginine/mToR pathways. by Qing Li, Yan Li, Tong Zhou, Yong Zhang, Huiyu Li, Fajia Yuan, Yanghui Bi

“…FBXW7 over-expression inhibited CRC cell growth, colony formation, migration, and invasion. Non-targeted metabolomics unveiled that FBXW7 over-expression directly caused the deprivation of arginine which led to downmodulation of mTOR signaling pathway; meanwhile, FBXW7-related metabolites were primarily concentrated in the mTOR signaling pathway. …”
