Research on Lateral Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of Transportation Vehicles in Open-pit Mines by WANG Bin, YUAN Xiwen, ZHANG Qian, HU Yunqing, LI Cheng

“…Firstly, a lateral kinematics model is established and the model is discretized and the influence of lateral error, yaw angle error and steering angle change rate is considered in the objective function. Then, according to the complex and changeable characteristics of the working conditions, adaptive weight factors of objective function depending on speed are designed. …”

Simulation of the of the DeepLabv3 neural network learning process for the agricultural fields segmentation by A. F. Rogachev, I. S. Belousov

“…Approximation of the neural network learning diagram to the DeepLabV3 architecture, using a modified Johnson function, allows us to estimate the value of the “saturation” of the simulated dependence and predict the maximum value of the neural network metric without taking into account its possible retraining.…”

Neural stem cell-specific deletion of Atg7 alleviates hippocampal dysfunction and neuronal alterations induced by chronic restraint stress by Hyeonjeong Jeong, Seongwon Choe, Seonghee Jung, Seong-Woon Yu

“…Therefore, our results suggest that the detrimental effects of stress on hippocampal neurons can be buffered by NSCs independent of neurogenesis and NSCs are essential to the hippocampal function both through the neurogenesis-dependent developmental process and by direct regulation of neural activation.…”

A redox-independent stress response mediated by phase-separated SQSTM1/p62 by Yoshinobu Ichimura, Masaaki Komatsu

“…When cells are exposed to various electrophiles and reactive oxidative species, they modify one or more selective cysteine residues in KEAP1, resulting in conformational changes that disable its NRF2-inhibitory function. In addition to this redox-dependent pathway, SQSTM1/p62 (sequestosome 1), which is a selective autophagy receptor for ubiquitinated proteins and a driver of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) upon binding to ubiquitinated proteins, competitively inhibits the binding between KEAP1 and NRF2, thereby disabling the NRF2-repressive function of KEAP1. …”

Six-wave interaction on resonant nonlinearity in a waveguide with infinitely conducting surfaces by Valery V. Ivakhnik, Darkhan R. Kapizov, Vladimir I. Nikonov

“…Assuming that one of the pump waves excites the zero mode of the waveguide, and the change in the amplitude of the other pump wave on the edge of the waveguide changes according to the Gaussian law, the dependences of the half-width of the central maximum of the modulus of the point blur function on the intensity of the single-mode pump wave, the width of the Gaussian pump wave, and the characteristics of the nonlinear medium are obtained. …”
