Modeling and Optimization of LoRa Networks under Multiple Constraints.

With the access of massive terminals of the Internet of Things (IoT), the low-power wide-area networks (LPWAN) applications represented by Long Range Radio (LoRa) will grow extensively in the future. The specific Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) protocol within the LoRa network considers both low power consumption and long-range communication. It can optimize data transmission to achieve low communication latency, ensuring a responsive system and a favorable user experience.

Passive Beamforming Design of IRS-Assisted MIMO Systems Based on Deep Learning.

In the intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted MIMO systems, optimizing the passive beamforming of the IRS to maximize spectral efficiency is crucial. However, due to the unit-modulus constraint of the IRS, the design of an optimal passive beamforming solution becomes a challenging task. The feature input of existing schemes often neglects to exploit channel state information (CSI), and all input data are treated equally in the network, which cannot effectively pay attention to the key information and features in the input.

BIC2, a Cryptochrome Function Inhibitor, Is Involved in the Regulation of ABA Responses in .

The plant hormone ABA (abscisic acid) is able to regulate plant responses to abiotic stresses via regulating the expression of ABA response genes. BIC1 (Blue-light Inhibitor of Cryptochromes 1) and BIC2 have been identified as the inhibitors of plant cryptochrome functions, and are involved in the regulation of plant development and metabolism in . In this study, we report the identification of BIC2 as a regulator of ABA responses in .

A case report of severe Fusobacterium nucleatum sepsis secondary to nephrectomy.

Background: Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) is a resident anaerobic bacterium, which in rare cases may invade blood from the head and neck or the digestive tract to cause bacteremia and induce venous thrombosis. F.

GCN5 modulates trichome initiation in Arabidopsis by manipulating histone acetylation of core trichome initiation regulator genes.

Histone acetyltransferase GCN5 affects trichome initiation via mediating the expression of some core trichome initiation regulator genes in Arabidopsis. GENERAL CONTROL NON-REPRESSED PROTEIN5 (GCN5), a histone acetyltransferase involved in the regulation of cell differentiation, organ development, secondary metabolism, and plant responses to abiotic stresses, has recently been shown to modulate trichome branching in Arabidopsis. Here, we provide evidence that GCN5 is also involved in the regulation of trichome initiation.

Involvement of PACLOBUTRAZOL RESISTANCE6/KIDARI, an Atypical bHLH Transcription Factor, in Auxin Responses in Arabidopsis.

Auxin regulates nearly all aspects of plant growth and development including cell division, cell elongation and cell differentiation, which are achieved largely by rapid regulation of auxin response genes. However, the functions of a large number of auxin response genes remain uncharacterized. Paclobutrazol Resistance (PRE) proteins are non-DNA binding basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors that have been shown to be involved in gibberellin and brassinosteroid signaling, and light responses in Arabidopsis.
