Hybrid Depth-Separable Residual Networks for Hyperspectral Image Classification by Cuijie Zhao, Hongdong Zhao, Guozhen Wang, Hong Chen

“…This paper proposes a novel deep convolutional network structure, namely, a hybrid depth-separable residual network, for HSI classification, called HDSRN. The HDSRN model organically combines 3D CNN, 2D CNN, multiresidual network ROR, and depth-separable convolutions to extract deeper abstract features. …”

Caloric restriction and its mimetics in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: mechanisms and therapeutic potential by Alexander Fuerlinger, Alina Stockner, Simon Sedej, Mahmoud Abdellatif

“…Conversely, weight loss strategies, particularly caloric restriction, have shown promise in improving health status in patients with HFpEF and are considered the gold standard for promoting longevity and healthspan (disease-free lifetime) in model organisms. In this review, we implicate fundamental mechanisms of aging in driving HFpEF and elucidate how caloric restriction mitigates the disease progression. …”

Early attainment of 20-hydroxyecdysone threshold shapes mosquito sexual dimorphism in developmental timing by Meichun Zhang, Han Wen, Qiang Sun, Dongjing Zhang, Yongjun Li, Andrew Xi, Xiaoying Zheng, Yu Wu, Jun Cao, Jeremy Bouyer, Zhiyong Xi

“…Abstract In holometabolous insects, critical weight (CW) attainment triggers pupation and metamorphosis, but its mechanism remains unclear in non-model organisms like mosquitoes. Here, we investigate the role of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) in CW assessment and pupation timing in Aedes albopictus and Ae. aegypti, vectors of arboviruses including dengue and Zika. …”

Legal and Socio-Psychological Aspects of Creating a Unified Organization Model for Orphans and Children Left without Parental Care by G.V. Semya, V.N. Oslon, M.V. Lashkul, A.E. Tarasova

“…Family placement of orphans and prevention of social orphanhood have led to a significant reduction in the number of children in institutionalized settings (32 thousand in 2024) and one of the pressing issues today is the expediency of creating a Unified model organization (UMO) for this category of children and the possibility of combining it with other institutions working with children in difficult life situations. …”
