A lightweight transformer based multi task learning model with dynamic weight allocation for improved vulnerability prediction by Lan Liu, Zhanfa Hui, Guiming Chen, Tingfeng Cai, Chiyu Zhou

“…Traditional methods, such as single-task learning and ensemble approaches, often struggle with these challenges, particularly in detecting rare but critical vulnerabilities. To address this, we propose the MTLPT: Multi-Task Learning with Position Encoding and Lightweight Transformer for Vulnerability Prediction, a novel multi-task learning framework that leverages custom lightweight Transformer blocks and position encoding layers to effectively capture long-range dependencies and complex patterns in source code. …”

Clustering nuclear receptors in liver regeneration identifies candidate modulators of hepatocyte proliferation and hepatocarcinoma. by Michele Vacca, Simona D'Amore, Giusi Graziano, Andria D'Orazio, Marica Cariello, Vittoria Massafra, Lorena Salvatore, Nicola Martelli, Stefania Murzilli, Giuseppe Lo Sasso, Renato Mariani-Costantini, Antonio Moschetta

“…Twenty-nine NR transcripts were significantly modified in their expression during LR, including fatty acid (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, PPARs) and oxysterol (liver X receptors, Lxrs) sensors, circadian masters RevErbα and RevErbβ, glucocorticoid receptor (Gr) and constitutive androxane receptor (Car). In order to detect the NRs that better characterize proliferative status vs. proliferating liver, we used the novel Random Forest (RF) analysis to selected a trio of down-regulated NRs (thyroid receptor alpha, Trα; farsenoid X receptor beta, Fxrβ; Pparδ) as best discriminators of the proliferating status. …”

OGLE-2011-BLG-0462: An Isolated Stellar-mass Black Hole Confirmed Using New HST Astrometry and Updated Photometry by Kailash C. Sahu, Jay Anderson, Stefano Casertano, Howard E. Bond, Martin Dominik, Annalisa Calamida, Andrea Bellini, Thomas M. Brown, Henry C. Ferguson, Marina Rejkuba

“…We have reanalyzed the data, including the new HST astrometry, and photometry obtained with 16 different telescopes. The source lies only $0\mathop{.}\limits^{^{\prime\prime} }4$ from a bright neighbor, making it crucial to perform precise subtraction of its point-spread function (PSF) in the astrometric measurements of the source. …”
