Influence of Electric Current and Magnetic Flow on Firing Patterns of Pre-Bötzinger Complex Model by Wenchao Ji, Moutian Liu, Lixia Duan

“…Studies on electrophysiology show that the magnetic flow is an essential factor that modulates the firing activities of neurons. By adding the magnetic flow to Butera’s neuron model, we investigate how the electric current and magnetic flow influence neuronal activities under certain parametric restrictions. …”

Gut microbiota axis: potential target of phytochemicals from plant-based foods by Ruyu Shi, Congying Huang, Yuan Gao, Xing Li, Chunhong Zhang, Minhui Li

“…Food-microbiota-host interactions provide an overarching framework for understanding the function of the gut microbiota axis. Diet is a major modulator of gut microbiota. Plant-based foods are rich in phytochemicals; therefore, it is essential to assess such foods and elucidate the mechanisms underlying their action. …”

Comparing First-Order Microscopic and Macroscopic Crowd Models for an Increasing Number of Massive Agents by Alessandro Corbetta, Andrea Tosin

“…The main result is that the two types of models approach one another in the limit N→∞, provided the strength and/or the domain of pedestrian interactions are properly modulated by N at either scale. This is consistent with the idea that pedestrians may adapt their interpersonal attitudes according to the overall level of congestion.…”

VLSI Architectures for Sliding-Window-Based Space-Time Turbo Trellis Code Decoders by Georgios Passas, Steven Freear

“…These architectures are based on newly proposed building blocks such as a recursive add-compare-select-offset (ACSO) unit, A-, B-, Γ-, and LLR output calculation modules. Measurements of complexity and decoding delay of several sliding-window-technique-based MAP decoder architectures and a proposed parameter set lead to defining equations and comparison between those architectures.…”
