Deep Feature Learning for Intrinsic Signature Based Camera Discrimination by Chaity Banerjee, Tharun Kumar Doppalapudi, Eduardo Pasiliao, Tathagata Mukherjee

“…We conduct experiments using three custom datasets: the first containing two cameras in an indoor environment where each camera may observe different scenes having no overlapping features, the second containing images from four cameras in an outdoor setting but where each camera observes scenes having overlapping features and the third containing images from two cameras observing the same checkerboard pattern in an indoor setting. Our results show that it is possible to capture the intrinsic hardware signature of the cameras using deep feature representations in an end-to-end framework. …”

Machine learning-random forest model was used to construct gene signature associated with cuproptosis to predict the prognosis of gastric cancer by Xiaolong Liu, Pengxian Tao, He Su, Yulan Li

“…Finally, immunohistochemical analysis was used to examine ephrin 4 (EFNA4) expression in GC samples and determine the prognosis of patients with GC based on the expression pattern of EFNA4. A group of 7 predictive models (RTKN2, INO80B, EFNA4, ELF2, MUSTN, KRTAP4, and ARHGEF40) was established which were correlated with CRGs. …”

Sexual dimorphism and ancestral variation in the pectoral and pelvic girdles of modern humans by Daphne R. Hudson, John H. Langdon

“…Regardless of differences in ancestry and body size, males have significantly broader pectoral regions as indicated by comparisons of both individual pectoral measurements and pectoral-pelvic indices. This pattern of sexual dimorphism is reversed in the pelvic region where females have larger skeletal elements. …”

Gravitational odd-parity perturbation of a Horndeski hairy black hole: quasinormal mode and parameter constraint by Zhen-Hao Yang, Yun-He Lei, Xiao-Mei Kuang, Bin Wang

“…Abstract During the binary black hole coalescence, gravitational waves emitted at the ringdown stage can be well described by black hole perturbation theory, where the quasinormal modes (QNMs) become the important ingredient in modeling the pattern waveform. In general relativity (GR), the QNMs can be obtained from solving the Regge–Wheeler (RW) equation of a non-rotating black hole. …”

The History of the Brazilian Sardine (<i>Sardinella brasiliensis</i>) Between Two Fishery Collapses: An Ecosystem Modeling Approach to Study Its Life Cycle by Rafael Schroeder, Angélica Petermann, Alberto Teodorico Correia

“…During this period, a sharp drop in the primary production required to sustain the catches from 2012 onwards accompanied a significant fall in the biomass accumulation rate. This pattern was coincidental with the increasing mean temperature of the catches, which was probably acting as a limiting factor for the primary production, resulting in a higher natural mortality and flow to detritus. …”

Research on Optimization of Coal Pressure Relief Borehole Parameters under High-Stress Conditions by Heng Zhang, Tie Li, Zhenhua Ouyang, Su Liu, Haiyang Yi

“…The following results are obtained. (1) A large-diameter results in a large amount of elastic energy released by the surrounding coal, low residual elastic energy density, strong interaction between boreholes, large pressure relief range of the borehole, and high pressure relief efficiency. (2) The main evaluation factor of the borehole pressure relief effect is its thickness and stress concentration area; secondary evaluation is based on the areas of energy, displacement, stress, and plastic behavior. (3) Six evaluation index systems are established to evaluate the effects of borehole pressure relief, which are found to be the thicknesses of the borehole pressure relief area and stress concentration area, reduction degree of energy density, percentage of stress reduction, displacement, and penetration degree of the plastic area. (4) It is determined that when the diameters of the pressure relief boreholes are 100, 120, 180, and 200 mm, a single-row borehole arrangement is adopted; a three-pattern borehole arrangement is adopted with diameters of 140 and 160 mm. …”
