Individual mobility prediction by considering current traveling features and historical activity chain by Xiaotong Zhang, Zhipeng Gui, Yuhang Liu, Dehua Peng, Qianxi Lan, Zhangxiao Shen, Huan Chen, Yuhui Zuo, Yao Yao, Huayi Wu, Kai Li, Kun Qin

“…Specifically, (1) we construct current traveling features by extracting real-time moving states, and represent spatiotemporal correlations between traversed road intersections using word embedding; (2) we learn travel intentions as a probability vector for each historical trip, and combine it with spatiotemporal features to construct historical activity chain; (3) we construct an individual mobility prediction model using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network and spatiotemporal scoring mechanism, to capture short-term and long-term dependencies in current trip and historical activity chain, respectively. …”

A survey of the Sli gene in wild and cultivated potato by Mercedes Ames, Andy Hamernik, William Behling, David S. Douches, Dennis A. Halterman, Paul C. Bethke

“…One way of incorporating self‐compatibility into incompatible cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum) germplasm is to introduce the S‐locus inhibitor gene (Sli), which functions as a dominant inhibitor of gametophytic self‐incompatibility. To learn more about Sli diversity and function in wild species relatives of cultivated potato, we obtained Sli gene sequences that extended from the 5′UTR to the 3′UTR from 133 individuals from 22 wild species relatives of potato and eight diverse cultivated potato clones. …”
