Damage Evolution and Failure Precursor of Rock-like Material Under Uniaxial Compression Based on Strain Rate Field Statistics by Jin Jin, Ping Cao, Jun Zhang, Yanchao Wang, Chenxi Miao, Jie Li, Xiaohong Bai

“…The results indicate that (1) all types of statistical data are positively correlated with the increment of microcracks; (2) corresponding to the fluctuation patterns of statistical data, the damage evolution of BPMs in the pre-peak stage can be divided into three parts; (3) the pre-existing flaw would accelerate the damage evolution; (4) the location and evolution rate of damage could be determined by comprehensively analyzing the average deviation curve, the coefficient of variation, and the contour maps of the strain rate field. …”

The landscape of nucleotide diversity in Drosophila melanogaster is shaped by mutation rate variation by Barroso, Gustavo V, Dutheil, Julien Y

“…In doing so, our model captures the effects of genetic drift, linked selection and local mutation rates on patterns of genomic variation. We then formalize a causal model of how these micro-evolutionary mechanisms interact, and cast it as a linear regression to estimate their individual contributions to levels of diversity along the genome. …”

Prob-sparse self-attention extraction of time-aligned dynamic functional connectivity for ASD diagnosis by Hongwu Chen, Fan Feng, Pengwei Lou, Ying Li, MingLi Zhang, Feng Zhao

“…Specifically, we introduce Prob-Sparse Self-Attention to selectively extract global features, and use self-attention distillation as a transition at each layer to capture local patterns and reduce dimensionality. Additionally, we construct a time-aligned DFC matrix to mitigate the time sensitivity of DFC and extend the dataset, thereby alleviating model overfitting. …”
