Article Synopsis
  • Ripeness is essential for fruit quality, but current detection methods are inefficient and costly; a new method called MRD-YOLO offers a solution.
  • MRD-YOLO uses an advanced object detection algorithm with a lightweight design, achieving a mean Average Precision of 97.4% and excelling in various conditions like occlusions and changing light.
  • The method is computationally efficient and suitable for deployment on mobile and edge devices, making it a promising tool for improving fruit ripeness detection in agriculture.

Haplotype-resolved genome assembly plays a crucial role in understanding allele-specific functions. However, obtaining haplotype-resolved assembly for auto-polyploid genomes remains challenging. Existing methods can be classified into reference-based phasing, assembly-based phasing, and gamete binning.

Motivation: Constructing a phylogenetic tree requires calculating the evolutionary distance between samples or species via large-scale resequencing data, a process that is both time-consuming and computationally demanding. Striking the right balance between accuracy and efficiency is a significant challenge.

Results: To address this, we introduce a new algorithm, MIKE (MinHash-based k-mer algorithm).

As one of the essential nutrients for plants, nitrogen (N) has a major impact on the yield and quality of wheat worldwide. Due to chemical fertilizer pollution, it has become increasingly important to improve crop yield by increasing N use efficiency (NUE). Therefore, understanding the response mechanisms to low N (LN) stress is essential for the regulation of NUE in wheat.

Genomic copy number variations (CNVs) are among the most important structural variations of genes found to be related to the risk of individual cancer and therefore they can be utilized to provide a clue to the research on the formation and progression of cancer. In this paper, an improved computational gene selection algorithm called CRIA (correlation-redundancy and interaction analysis based on gene selection algorithm) is introduced to screen genes that are closely related to cancer from the whole genome based on the value of gene CNVs. The CRIA algorithm mainly consists of two parts.

In the present paper, the statistical responses of two-special prey-predator type ecosystem models excited by combined Gaussian and Poisson white noise are investigated by generalizing the stochastic averaging method. First, we unify the deterministic models for the two cases where preys are abundant and the predator population is large, respectively. Then, under some natural assumptions of small perturbations and system parameters, the stochastic models are introduced.

We investigate the stochastic dynamics of a prey-predator type ecosystem with time delay and the discrete random environmental fluctuations. In this model, the delay effect is represented by a time delay parameter and the effect of the environmental randomness is modeled as Poisson white noise. The stochastic averaging method and the perturbation method are applied to calculate the approximate stationary probability density functions for both predator and prey populations.
