Research and Application of a Smart Monitoring System to Monitor the Deformation of a Dam and a Slope by Yongfei Wang, Dingbin Shen, Jiankang Chen, Liang Pei, Yanling Li, Xiang Lu, Lei Zhang

“…In this paper, a multitype instrument-integrated monitoring system based mainly on the total positioning station (TPS) and supplemented by the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) was promoted with the methods of large field angle, data complementation, environmental perception and judgment, automatic status control, and baseline calibration-meteorological fusion correction. The application results of Pubugou Station show that the averages of mean square error of points (APMSE) for the dam are 0.41∼1.65 mm and the averages of mean square error of height (AHMSE) are 0.42∼0.89 mm. …”

Retargeting Clostridium difficile Toxin B to Neuronal Cells as a Potential Vehicle for Cytosolic Delivery of Therapeutic Biomolecules to Treat Botulism by Greice Krautz-Peterson, Yongrong Zhang, Kevin Chen, George A. Oyler, Hanping Feng, Charles B. Shoemaker

“…Recombinant AGT-TcdB had alkyltransferase activity, and the chimera was nearly as toxic to Vero cells as wild-type TcdB, suggesting efficient cytosolic delivery of the AGT/GT fusion. For AGT-TcdB-BoNT/A-Hc, the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of TcdB was replaced by the equivalent RBD from BoNT/A (BoNT/A-Hc). …”

Risk assessment of rail transit systems with variable renewable energy based on uncertain random theory by Yanbo Chen, Xiaoxue Li, Zhi Zhang

“…Firstly, the uncertainty random theory is applied to take the first failure time of the new energy generation equipment and the traditional equipment as an uncertain variable and a random variable, respectively, the value-at-risk function is defined in combination with the consequences of the system failure; next, the competing failure model for the random system is established by thoroughly considering degradation and shock failures; for the uncertain system, the evidence theory’s framework is used to establish the multiple sources imprecise information conflict and fusion model; finally, the consequences of failure of the system are quantified and the value-at-risk calculation method for the rail transit systems with variable renewable energy is propose. …”

Mapping hierarchical wetland characteristics by optical-SAR integration with collaborative spatial-spectral-temporal learning by Linwei Yue, Meiyue Wang, Chengpeng Huang, Qing Cheng, Qiangqiang Yuan, Huanfeng Shen

“…The evaluation results show that the overall accuracy of HiWet-DBNet reaches 88.51% and 88.61% in the dry and wet seasons, which is superior to the other solutions with only a single data source or insufficient fusion of multi-modal features. For the challenging task of submerged vegetation detection, the producer’s accuracy of HiWet-DBNet is improved by 1.70% to 16.59% compared with the VBI algorithm and state-of-art deep learning-based wetland classification methods.…”
