Core-Shell Columns in High-Performance Liquid Chromatography: Food Analysis Applications by Raffaella Preti

“…Their use has proved to be particularly advantageous for the determination of compounds at trace levels or when a large amount of samples must be analyzed fast using reliable and solvent-saving apparatus. The literature hereby described shows how the outstanding performances provided by core-shell particles column on a traditional HPLC instruments are comparable to those obtained with a costly UHPLC instrumentation, making this novel column a promising key tool in food analysis.…”

Collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on one-jump trust model by Xing-mao WANG, Xing-ming ZHANG, Jiang-xing WU

“…A collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on the trust network of social brings two problems that the choice of complex paths between nodes and the weak transfering of trust.Toward to these two problems,a one-jump trust model based on items was put forward,the model calculated the trust between users and items,defined the consumer’s trust attribute vector of social and calculated the direct and indirect distance one-jump by items,and then calculated the trust between users.A collaborative filtering algorithm(OneJ-TCF) is degined based on the model,moreover analysed and reorganized the relation between trust and similarity.The experiments show that this algorithm improves the degree of accuracy(reducing about 0.02 MAE),and saves about 50% training time at the same time.…”

Research Progress on Mechanoenzymatic Reactions by CUI Tianyu, XIN Jiaying, SUN Lirui, LI Yue, LIU Jingxue, ZHANG Jianxiong, XIA Chungu

“…In recent years, in the context of global resource shortage, mechanoenzymatic reactions have attracted great attention from both academia and the food industry due to their efficient, green, energy-saving and sustainable characteristics. Organic synthesis reactions typically use a large amount of chemical reagents and require strict reaction conditions and complex downstream operations to separate and purify products, which should be used sparingly or not at all in foods. …”

Efficient model-and-data based channel estimation algorithm by Kai MEI, Haitao ZHAO, Xiaoran LIU, Jun LIU, Jun XIONG, Baoquan REN, Jibo WEI

“…For orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, a hybrid model and data driven channel estimation algorithm was proposed.Combined with two existing channel estimation methods, including a low complex learning-based channel estimation method and the linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) channel estimation, the estimator with the ability was facilitated to employ online training to improve estimation performance.Meanwhile, the pilot overhead consumed by generating online training data was saved due to the use of the model-based method in the proposed algorithm, which improved the spectrum efficiency.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better performance under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and better adaptation to practical imperfections compared with conventional channel estimation methods.…”
