MOMFNet: A Deep Learning Approach for InSAR Phase Filtering Based on Multi-Objective Multi-Kernel Feature Extraction.

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a widely used remote sensing technology for Earth observation, enabling the detection and measurement of ground deformation through the generation of interferograms. However, phase noise remains a critical factor that degrades interferogram quality. To address this issue, this study proposes MOMFNet, a deep learning approach for InSAR phase filtering based on multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction that leverages multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction.

Characteristics of dissolved organic matter and their role in membrane fouling during simultaneous sludge thickening and reduction using flat-sheet membranes.

Four parallel simultaneous sludge thickening and reduction reactors using flat-sheet membranes were employed for the aerobic digestion of sludge to explore the characteristics of dissolved organic matter and its membrane fouling effect. During the initial 8 days of using flat-sheet membranes for simultaneous sludge thickening and reduction (MSTR), a notable increase was observed in the concentrations of humic acids and compounds that resemble soluble microbial by-products in the effluent. Subsequently, a fluctuating trend in humic acid levels ensued, accompanied by a gradual decline in soluble microbial by-product-like substances.

Precision mapping of snail habitat in lake and marshland areas: Integrating environmental and textural indicators using Random Forest modeling.

Schistosomiasis japonica continues to pose a significant public health challenge in China, primarily due to the widespread distribution of , the sole intermediate host of . This study aims to address the constraints of existing remote sensing analyses for identifying snail habitats, which frequently neglect spatial scale and seasonal variations. To this end, we adopt a multi-source data-driven Random Forest approach that integrates bottomland and ground-surface texture data with traditional environmental variables, enhancing the accuracy of snail habitat assessments.

Impact and migration behavior of triclosan on waste-activated sludge anaerobic digestion.

Triclosan (TCS), a hydrophobic antibacterial agent, is extensive application in daily life. Despite a low biodegradability rate, its hydrophobicity results in its accumulation in waste-activated sludge (WAS) during domestic and industrial wastewater treatment. While anaerobic digestion is the foremost strategy for WAS treatment, limited research has explored the interphase migration behavior and impacts of TCS on WAS degradation during anaerobic digestion.

Genomics of hybrid parallel origin in Aquilegia ecalcarata.

Background: The parallel evolution of similar traits or species provides strong evidence for the role of natural selection in evolution. Traits or species that evolved repeatedly can be driven by separate de novo mutations or interspecific gene flow. Although parallel evolution has been reported in many studies, documented cases of parallel evolution caused by gene flow are scarce by comparison.

Structural analysis and in vitro fermentation characteristics of an Avicennia marina fruit RG-I pectin as a potential prebiotic.

Metrnl inhibits choroidal neovascularization by attenuating the choroidal inflammation via inactivating the UCHL-1/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective: Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) represents the predominant form of advanced wet Age-related Macular Degeneration (wAMD). Macrophages play a pivotal role in the pathological progression of CNV. Meteorin-like (Metrnl), a novel cytokine known for its anti-inflammatory properties in macrophages, is the focus of our investigation into its mechanism of action and its potential to impede CNV progression.

Interface-Targeting Carrier-Catalytic Integrated Design Contributing to Lithium Dihalide-Rich SEI toward High Interface Stability for Long-Life Solid-State Lithium-Metal Batteries.

The generation of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) largely determines the comprehensive performance of all-solid-state batteries. Herein, a novel "carrier-catalytic" integrated design is strategically exploited to in situ construct a stable LiF-LiBr rich SEI by improving the electron transfer kinetics to accelerate the bond-breaking dynamics. Specifically, the high electron transport capacity of Br-TPOM skeleton increases the polarity of C-Br, thus promoting the generation of LiBr.

Cotton-Net: efficient and accurate rapid detection of impurity content in machine-picked seed cotton using near-infrared spectroscopy.

Widespread adoption of machine-picked cotton in China, the impurity content of seed cotton has increased significantly. This impurity content holds direct implications for the valuation of seed cotton and exerts a consequential influence on the ensuing quality of processed lint and textiles. Presently, the primary approach for assessing impurity content in seed cotton primarily depends on semi-automated testing instruments, exhibiting suboptimal detection efficiency and not well-suited for the impurity detection requirements during the purchase of seed cotton.

Impact of different nucleic acid testing scenarios on COVID-19 transmission.

In the past three years, waves of COVID-19 infections have emerged one after another, and may enter a small-scale wave-like recurrent epidemic pattern in the future. When COVID-19 infections occur in small-scale, how to efficiently detect and prevent the disease has become the main problem. In this study, based on the characteristics of the Omicron variant and China's pandemic prevention and control strategies, the following three nucleic acid testing scenarios were simulated: scenario 1 (baseline scenario) included conducting nucleic acid testing at administrative region; scenario 2 included conducting nucleic acid testing at the community; and scenario 3 included conducting nucleic acid testing at the health facility closest to households.

Physicochemical Index Analyses of the Egg White in Blue-Shelled Eggs and Commercial Brown-Shelled Eggs during Storage.

Clinicopathological characteristics, molecular landscape, and biomarker landscape for predicting the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in Chinese population with mismatch repair deficient urothelial carcinoma: a real-world study.

Urothelial carcinoma (UC) with deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) is a specific subtype of UC characterized by the loss of mismatch repair (MMR) proteins and its association with Lynch syndrome (LS). However, comprehensive real-world data on the incidence, clinicopathological characteristics, molecular landscape, and biomarker landscape for predicting the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the Chinese patients with dMMR UC remains unknown.
