This article explores a proposed deep-learning-based algorithm called DeepFilter for improving peptide identifications from a collection of tandem mass spectra. The authors find that DeepFilter is believed to generalize properly to new, previously unseen peptide-spectrum-matches and can be readily applied in peptide identification from metaproteomics data.

This article is a study aimed at predicting and enhancing the properties of the blend, as well as exploring the mechanism, of a polylactic acid (PLA)/amorphous cellulose composite system through molecular characterization. The static properties of the amorphous cellulose/PLA blend model and the mechanical response of the material under uniaxial tension were studied by molecular dynamics simulation to establish the structure–property relationship.

This article discusses semantic indexing using WordNet senses.

This paper discusses a logic programming framework for semantic interpretation with WordNet and PageRank.

Article on the ion-exchange and associated interfacial reaction mechanisms of silicate glasses. This work reports findings that shed light on the complex ion-exchange mechanisms during glass hydration and enables more detailed understanding of the corrosion and glass-water interactions of silicate glasses which has the potential to impact both science and technology.

Article describes study in which researchers attribute the 600% increase in creep life in a prototypical Mg–rare earth (RE)–Zn alloy to multiple mechanisms caused by RE–Zn bonding—stabilization of a large volume fraction of strengthening precipitates on slip planes, increase in vacancy diffusion barrier, reduction in activated cross-slip, and enhancement of covalent character and bond strength around Zn solutes along the c-axis of Mg using atomic-scale characterization and first principles calculations.

This article focuses on a way to maximize the concentration acceptance product (CAP), while using the minimum SOE and receiver geometry at a given f-number and incidence angle (also referred to as the tracking error angle). The laws of polychromatic light refraction along with trigonometry and spherical geometry were utilized to optimize the POE grooves, SOE radius, receiver size, and SOE–receiver spacing.

Article conducting an intensive study on the problems of low recognition efficiency and noise in the overlapping structure of protein functional modules, based on topological characteristics of PPI network. Developing a protein function module recognition method ECTG based on Topological Features and Gene expression data for Protein Complex Identification. The experimental results show that the ECTG algorithm can detect protein functional modules better.

This article is a study where the authors integrated the multi-omics datasets such as copy number aberration, DNA methylation, gene and microRNA expression to identify the signature microRNA-gene associations from frequently aberrated DNA regions across pan-cancer utilizing a LASSO-based regression approach.

Article presents a motion-sensing device with the capability of harvesting energy from low-frequency motion activities. Based on the high surface area reverse electrowetting-on-dielectric (REWOD) energy harvesting technique, mechanical modulation of the liquid generates an AC signal, which is modeled analytically and implemented in Matlab and COMSOL.

Article describes hybrid additive manufacturing processes involve the use of different manufacturing techniques to fabricate net shape or near-net shape parts, with enhanced capabilities of heat dissipation, such as those needed in conformal molding, or requiring internal cooling systems, such as, for example, those seen in turbine blades, and for developing other components demanding free form fabrication methods. The combination of these AM processes with material removal processes, such as machining, is the core of the hybrid additive manufacturing concept, together with the full coupling of these processes in an integrated fashion.

Data management plan for the grant, "Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research." This study will use the genome-edited human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) with NOTCH1 knockout to recapitulate the genetic variants of NOTCH1 mutation in the Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). It will use advances in the vascularized cardiac organoid directly differentiated from hiPSCs to replay the development and function of cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and other cardiac cells in a defined 3D cell culture model by stencil-based micropatterning. It will elucidate the pathogenesis of cardiovascular underdevelopment and dysfunction found in HLHS with NOTCH1 mutation via the NOTCHDELTA/JAG ligand-receptor binding and multicellular crosstalk by single-cell RNA-seq and proteomics analysis.
