The Role of TLR4 on B Cell Activation and Anti-β2GPI Antibody Production in the Antiphospholipid Syndrome by Si Cheng, Haibo Wang, Hong Zhou

“…However, TLR4 provides a third signal for B cell activation and then promotes B cells better receiving signals from both B cell antigen receptor (BCR) and CD40, thus promoting B cell activation, surface molecules expression, anti-β2GPI Ab production, and cytokines secretion and making B cell functioning like an antigen presenting cell (APC). At the same time, TLR4 also promotes B cells producing antibodies by upregulating the expression of B-cell activating factor (BAFF). …”

IoT intrusion detection method for unbalanced samples by ANTONG P, Wen CHEN, Lifa WU

“…In recent years, network traffic increases exponentially with the iteration of devices, while more and more attacks are launched against various applications.It is significant to identify and classify attacks at the traffic level.At the same time, with the explosion of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in recent years, attacks on IoT devices are also increasing, causing more and more damages.IoT intrusion detection is able to distinguish attack traffic from such a large volume of traffic, secure IoT devices at the traffic level, and stop the attack activity.In view of low detection accuracy of various attacks and sample imbalance at present, a random forest based intrusion detection method (Resample-RF) was proposed, which consisted of three specific methods: optimal sample selection algorithm, feature merging algorithm based on information entropy, and multi-classification greedy transformation algorithm.Aiming at the problem of unbalanced samples in the IoT environment, an optimal sample selection algorithm was proposed to increase the weight of small samples.Aiming at the low efficiency problem of random forest feature splitting, a feature merging method based on information entropy was proposed to improve the running efficiency.Aiming at the low accuracy problem of random forest multi-classification, a multi-classification greedy transformation method was proposed to further improve the accuracy.The method was evaluated on two public datasets.F1 reaches 0.99 on IoT-23 dataset and 1.0 on Kaggle dataset, both of which have good performance.The experimental results show that the proposed model can effectively identify the attack traffic from the massive traffic, better prevent the attack of hackers on the application, protect the IoT devices, and thus protect the related users.…”

Effects of rural industrial integration development on the performance of entrepreneurial enterprises of returning college students by Yan Lu, Yun Yu, Guoqing Wu

“…The specific ways are as follows: (1) The government should make overall planning, first determine the local leading industries, establish the whole industrial chain, and give full play to the various functions of agriculture. At the same time, the government should actively guide agricultural enterprises to develop in the direction of internal integration of planting and breeding, three-dimensional agriculture, and other industries, extend the length of the industrial chain, broaden the width of the industrial chain, and deepen the depth of industrial integration, so as to optimize the external environment for college students to return home and start businesses. (2) In the process of returning to their hometowns to start businesses, college students should attach importance to improving internal technological innovation capability and cooperation development capability, cultivate “internal strengths”, and comprehensively improve enterprise performance.…”
