Smart Predictor for Spontaneous Combustion in Cotton Storages Using Wireless Sensor Network and Machine Learning by Umar Farooq Shafi, Waheed Anwar, Imran Sarwar Bajwa, Hina Sattar, Iqra Yaqoob, Aqsa Mahmood, Shabana Ramzan

“…One such hazard to cotton storage is spontaneous combustion, a process by which an element having comparatively low ignition temperature (hay, straw, peat, etc.) starts to relieve heat. In the presence of spontaneous combustion and lack of oxygen, if cotton catches any sparks from bales or physicochemical heat to ignite, the combustion can convert in to smoldering, and it can last up to several days without being discovered. …”

In silico methods for immunogenicity risk assessment and human homology screening for therapeutic antibodies by Aimee E. Mattei, Andres H. Gutierrez, Soorya Seshadri, Jacob Tivin, Matt Ardito, Amy S. Rosenberg, William D. Martin, Anne S. De Groot

“…This toolkit has evolved and now contains an array of algorithms that can be used individually and/or consecutively for immunogenicity assessment and protein engineering. Most analyses start with the advanced epitope mapping tool (EpiMatrix), then proceed to identify epitope clusters using ClustiMer, and then use a tool called JanusMatrix to define whether any of the T cell epitope clusters may generate a regulatory T cell response which may diminish or eliminate anti-drug antibody formation. …”
