Substrates, regulation, cellular functions, and disease associations of P4-ATPases by Hye-Won Shin, Hiroyuki Takatsu

“…These enzymes are conserved across all eukaryotes, and the human genome encodes 14 distinct P4-ATPases. Initially identified as aminophospholipid translocases, P4-ATPases have since been found to translocate other phospholipids, including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and even glycosphingolipids. …”

Multi-objective cloud workflow scheduling algorithm based on grid variance by Xiaoan BAO, Yundi CAO, Na ZHANG, Junyan QIAN, Jianwen CAO

“…Multi-objective cloud workflow scheduling algorithm based on grid variance and the strategy of bad particles self-learning were presented.Firstly,the characteristics of task scheduling was token into consideration,and particle encoding was discredited.Secondly,the strategy of mapping Pareto optimal workflow scheduling set to self-adaptive grid coordinate system,and calculating the grid distribution value of each Pareto optimal solution was used.Thirdly,grid variance was adopted to evaluate the diversity of current Pareto front and dynamically adjust evolution strategies.Finally,the concept of being dominated times was introduced into bad particles self-learning strategy for filtering out bad particles in population.The simulation experiment shows that workflow scheduling solution set by this algorithm is better than the MOPSO algorithm on both IGD and S performance indexes,and the optimal value is superior to the ε-FDPSO and NSGA-Ⅱ algorithm.…”

THERAPEUTIC GENE EDITING FOR HEMOGLOBINOPATHIES by Ugo Testa, Giuseppe Leone, Maria Domenica Cappellini

“…Initial studies of gene therapy for hemoglobinopathies involved the use of lentiviral vectors to add functional copies of the gene encoding b-globin in defective CD34 cells; more recently, gene editing techniques have been used involving either CRISPR-Cas9, transcription activation-like effector protein nuclease, zinc finger nuclease, and base editing to either induce fetal hemoglobin production at therapeutic levels or to genetically repair the underlying molecular defect causing the disease. …”

Lightweight privacy protection data auditing scheme for regenerating-coding-based distributed storage by Guangjun LIU, Wangmei GUO, Jinbo XIONG, Ximeng LIU, Changyu DONG

“…To reduce the security implementation cost of the outsourcing data audit mechanism for the regenerating-coding-based distributed storage systems, an orthogonal algebraic coding method was put forward to construct a lightweight privacy-preserving audit scheme based on linear homomorphic authentication.The homomorphic authentication tags were generated with the orthogonalization between the file encoded data and the private secret key vector, and the privacy protection of the auditing response message was achieved by using the random masking that was constructed by randomizing the orthogonal basis vectors of the specific sub-vector of the user’s secret key.The work realized the effective integration of algebraic coding, privacy protection, and security auditing.Theoretical analysis shows that the proposed scheme can realize the information-theoretic security in the regenerating-coding-based storage applications.Compared with the existing works, the proposed scheme is of low computational complexity and communication overhead, and better performance advantages.…”

Image privacy preservation scheme based on QR code and reversible visible watermarking by Yuanzhi YAO, Feng WANG, Wenbo YAN, Nenghai YU

“…With the privacy leakage problem of image delivery in networks,an image privacy preservation scheme based on QR code and reversible visible watermarking was proposed.In order to preserve the privacy information including shooting time,shooting location and detailed description,the encrypted privacy information was stored in cloud platforms and corresponding universal resource locator was generated firstly.Secondly,the universal resource locator was encoded as the QR code and it was embedded into the cover image using reversible visible watermarking.Therefore,the access control for privacy information could be achieved.The visual perceptual model was utilized to select adaptive watermark embedding parameters to balance watermark visibility and marked image quality.Experimental results demonstrate that the good visual quality of marked images can be obtained and the embedded QR code can be correctly decoded.The proposed scheme can guarantee marked image quality and reduce the risk of private information leakage.…”

Joint vibrotactile coding for machine recognition and human perception by Ying FANG, Yiwen XU, Tiesong ZHAO

“…In order to accurately transmit the content meaning of vibrotactile signals and achieve intelligent recognition and signal reconstruction, a joint vibrotactile coding scheme for machine recognition and human perception was proposed.At the encoding end, the original three-dimensional vibrotactile signals were converted into one-dimensional signals.Then the semantic information of the signals was extracted using a short-time Fourier transform before being effectively compressed and transmitted.At the decoding end, a fully convolutional neural network was used to intelligently recognize based on the semantic information.The difference between the original signals and the reconstructed signals based on semantic information was used as compensation for the semantic information, and the quality of the reconstructed signals was gradually improved to meet human perceptual needs.The experimental results show that the proposed scheme achieve tactile recognition with semantic information at a lower bit rate while improving the compression efficiency of tactile data, thus satisfying human perceptual needs.…”
