Research of multi-label text classification based on label attention and correlation networks.

Multi-Label Text Classification (MLTC) is a crucial task in natural language processing. Compared to single-label text classification, MLTC is more challenging due to its vast collection of labels which include extracting local semantic information, learning label correlations, and solving label data imbalance problems. This paper proposes a model of Label Attention and Correlation Networks (LACN) to address the challenges of classifying multi-label text and enhance classification performance.

Melatonin derivative 6a protects Caenorhabditis elegans from formaldehyde neurotoxicity via ADH5.

Formaldehyde (FA) is a carcinogen that is not only widespread in the environment, but is also produced endogenously by metabolic processes. In organisms, FA is converted to formic acid in a glutathione (GSH)-dependent manner by alcohol dehydrogenase 5 (ADH5). The abnormal accumulation of FA in the body can cause a variety of diseases, especially cognitive impairment leading to Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Metal Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Frameworks as Open Lewis Acid Catalysts for Two Types of CO Transformations.

Efficient and multiple CO utilization into high-value-added chemicals holds significant importance in carbon neutrality and industry production. However, most catalysis systems generally exhibit only one type of CO transformation with the efficiency to be improved. The restricted abundance of active catalytic sites or an inefficient utilization rate of these sites results in the constraint.

Enhancing cancer therapy: The role of drug delivery systems in STAT3 inhibitor efficacy and safety.

The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), a member of the STAT family, resides in the nucleus to regulate genes essential for vital cellular functions, including survival, proliferation, self-renewal, angiogenesis, and immune response. However, continuous STAT3 activation in tumor cells promotes their initiation, progression, and metastasis, rendering STAT3 pathway inhibitors a promising avenue for cancer therapy. Nonetheless, these inhibitors frequently encounter challenges such as cytotoxicity and suboptimal biocompatibility in clinical trials.
