Dual Fine-Grained network with frequency Transformer for change detection on remote sensing images by Zhen Li, Zhenxin Zhang, Mengmeng Li, Liqiang Zhang, Xueli Peng, Rixing He, Leidong Shi

“…Additionally, we develop a lightweight frequency transformer (LFT) with minimal parameters for detecting large-scale ground objects that undergo significant changes over time. This is achieved by incorporating a frequency attention (FA) module, which utilizes Fourier transform to model long-range dependencies and combines global adaptive attentive features with multi-level fine-grained features. …”

A new scheme for boosting in situ Fenton-like reaction in plant pathogenic tissues for selective structural degradation of capsid proteins by Jun Ma, Ming Chen, Yujie Wang, Jiaying Li, Jian Tang, Shengjun Wu, Chi He, J. Paul Chen

“…Based on a high-resolution 2.91 Å CP model that was constructed for the first time, this degradation process is likely driven by hydrophobic interactions between tCuinter-bCDs and CP residues MET1, VAL5, THR55, and THR58, along with hydrogen bonds formed with THR4, VAL5, GLY15, PRO57, and ALA59, thereby promoting degradation of adjacent peptide segments. …”

Deaney, Katherine C. Shihadeh, Alexandra Craig, Margaret M. Cooper, Paul D. Paratore, Timothy C. Jenkins

“…Results: The study included 147 patients pre-intervention and 169 post-intervention. Interrupted time series analysis showed a reduction in the median duration of therapy (–2.3 days, P = .0016), with a sustained decline (slope change –0.2103, P = .005) post-intervention. …”

Influence of tension cracks on moisture infiltration in loess slopes under high-intensity rainfall conditions by Xuancheng Ren, Weifeng Sun, Hengxing Lan, Han Bao, Langping Li, Shijie Liu, Changgen Yan, Xiaochan Wang, Zhouchen Li, Chaoyang Tian

“…The extent of this “U-shaped” wetting front is influenced by the crack’s width, depth, and proximity to the slope shoulder; wider, deeper cracks closer to the shoulder result in a more pronounced wetting front. Over time, as rainfall persists, the influence of preferential infiltration decreases, and the infiltration patterns of slopes with crest cracks begin to resemble those of homogeneous slopes. …”

Automatic detection, identification and counting of deep-water snappers on underwater baited video using deep learning by Florian Baletaud, Florian Baletaud, Florian Baletaud, Sébastien Villon, Antoine Gilbert, Jean-Marie Côme, Sylvie Fiat, Corina Iovan, Laurent Vigliola

“…Stereo-Baited Remote Underwater Video Stations (BRUVS) can provide valuable quantitative information on fish stocks, but manually processing large amounts of videos is time-consuming and sometimes unrealistic. To address this issue, we used a Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN), a deep learning architecture to automatically detect, identify and count deep-water snappers in BRUVS. …”

Physiological and behavioural resistance of malaria vectors in rural West-Africa: a data mining study to address their fine-scale spatiotemporal heterogeneity, drivers, and predict... by Taconet, Paul, Soma, Dieudonné Diloma, Zogo, Barnabas, Mouline, Karine, Simard, Frédéric, Koffi, Alphonsine Amanan, Dabiré, Roch Kounbobr, Pennetier, Cédric, Moiroux, Nicolas

“…We interpreted and discussed these associations in light of several topics of interest, such as: respective contribution of public health and agriculture in the selection of physiological resistances, biological costs associated with physiological resistances, biological mechanisms underlying biting behaviour, and impact of micro-climatic conditions on the time or place of biting. To our knowledge, our work is the first modeling insecticide resistance and feeding behaviour of malaria vectors at such fine spatial scale with such a large dataset of both mosquito and environmental data. …”
