PLncWX: A Machine-Learning Algorithm for Plant lncRNA Identification Based on WOA-XGBoost by Fei Guo, Zhixiang Yin, Kai Zhou, Jiasi Li

“…Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNAs longer than 200 nt and cannot encode the protein. Studies have shown that lncRNAs can regulate gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional, and posttranscriptional levels, which are not only closely related to the occurrence, development, and prevention of human diseases, but also can regulate plant flowering and participate in plant abiotic stress responses such as drought and salt. …”

Question Sequences and Salience in TED Talks by Michele Cardo, Agnès Celle

“…Following Falk (2014:4)’s idea that “the key characteristic of salience is its function to encode predictability or likelihood of continuous or discontinuous (previous / next) mention of a discourse part in the mental model throughout time,” this paper considers how question sequences are used by TED talk presenters to create a discourse framework which prompts the audience to understand the importance of a certain subject. …”
