Phylogeographic breaks and how to find them: An empirical attempt at separating vicariance from isolation by distance in a lizard with restricted dispersal by Rancilhac, Loïs, Miralles, Aurélien, Geniez, Philippe, Mendez-Aranda, Daniel, Beddek, Menad, Brito, José Carlos, Leblois, Raphaël, Crochet, Pierre-André

“…Aim: Discontinuity in the distribution of genetic diversity (often based on mtDNA) is usually interpreted as evidence for phylogeographic breaks, underlying vicariant units. However, a misleading signal of phylogeographic break can arise in the absence of barrier to gene flow, under mechanisms of isolation by distance (IBD). …”

JWST Imaging of Edge-on Protoplanetary Disks. IV. Mid-infrared Dust Scattering in the HH 30 Disk by Ryo Tazaki, François Ménard, Gaspard Duchêne, Marion Villenave, Álvaro Ribas, Karl R. Stapelfeldt, Marshall D. Perrin, Christophe Pinte, Schuyler G. Wolff, Deborah L. Padgett, Jie Ma, Laurine Martinien, Maxime Roumesy

“…By performing radiative transfer simulations, we show that grains of about 3 μ m in radius or larger are fully vertically mixed to explain the observed mid-IR scattered light flux and its morphology, whereas millimeter-sized grains are settled into a layer with a scale height of ≳1 au at 100 au from the central star. …”

Association between HOMA2 based beta-cell function or insulin resistance and long-term outcomes in kidney transplant recipients with type 2 diabetes by Mehdi Maanaoui, Florence Debillon, Rémi Lenain, Frédérique Defrance, Marie-Christine Vantyghem, Marine Van Triempont, François Provôt, Mikael Chetboun, Julie Kerr-Conte, Aghiles Hamroun, Marie Frimat, Violeta Raverdy, François Pattou, Marc Hazzan, François Glowacki

“…HOMA2 IR was significantly associated with an increased risk of kidney graft failure or death (HR per unit = 1.11 (1.02–1.21). Beta-cell function was not associated with graft prognosis, but decreased beta-cell function was associated with poorer metabolic control over time. …”

Risk control method for power data support based on embedded technology by Chengyue YANG, Zhou YU, Yuanyuan ZHAO, Changlong CHEN

“…In order to improve the ability of bad data identification and fault location accuracy in power system risk control, a new risk control method for power systems using embedded technology was designed.S3C2440 chip was used as the central processing unit, the phasor measurement unit (PMU) technology was used to identify bad data in the power system, improving the efficiency of identification.Improved on the basis of traditional multiverse algorithms, fault localization was based on data collected by PMU, effectively improving the accuracy of fault localization.In the simulation experiment, the efficiency of identifying bad data by the proposed method has been improved by at least 33.76%, the accuracy of fault localization has been improved by 26.33%, and the efficiency has been improved by at least 43.4%.The proposed method has good risk control capabilities in the power system.…”

Deep and robust resource allocation for random access network based with imperfect CSI by Weihua WU, Guanhua CHAI, Qinghai YANG, Runzi LIU

“…A deep and robust resource allocation framework was proposed for the random access based wireless networks,where both the communication channel state information (C-CSI) and the interference channel state information (I-CSI) were uncertain.The proposed resource allocation framework considered the optimization objective of wireless networks as a learning problem and employs deep neural network (DNN) to approximate optimal resource allocation policy through unsupervised manner.By modeling the uncertainties of CSI as ellipsoid sets,two concatenated DNN units were proposed,where the first was uncertain CSI processing unit and the second was the power control unit.Then,an alternating iterative training algorithm was developed to jointly train the two concatenated DNN units.Finally,the simulations verify the effectiveness of the proposed robust leaning approach over the nonrobust one.…”

SDN based e-mail repudiation source restraining method by Zhi-geng HAN, Xia FENG, Geng CHEN

“…With the limitation of controllability of the existing Internet architecture,the existing secure e-mail technology such as certified e-mail can only post detection but cannot source restraining on e-mail repudiation.Based on the idea of control and data separation of software-defined networking technology,by means of bypass attaching customized repudiation restrain unit to the traditional e-mail model.An e-mail repudiation source restraining method was proposed without destroying the existing e-mail structure.After presenting e-mail evidence binding protocol,repudiation behavior detection algorithm,certified reputation evaluation model,and repudiation restraining strategy formation algorithm embedded in repudiation restrain unit,the effectiveness were tested of the proposed method in 4 cross scenarios.The experimental results show that,under the premise of compatibility with the current e-mail system,the method can source restrain e-mail repudiation effectively.…”
