Photothermal Conversion of Hydrogel-Based Biomaterial.

Traditional energy from fossil fuels like petroleum and coal is limited and contributes to global environmental pollution and climate change. Developing sustainable and eco-friendly energy is crucial for addressing significant challenges such as climate change, energy dilemma and achieving the long-term development of human society. Biomass hydrogels, which are easily synthesized and modified, have diverse sources and can be designed for different applications.

Clustered Federated Learning in Heterogeneous Environment.

Federated learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning framework that allows resource-constrained clients to train a global model jointly without compromising data privacy. Although FL is widely adopted, high degrees of systems and statistical heterogeneity are still two main challenges, which leads to potential divergence and nonconvergence. Clustered FL handles the problem of statistical heterogeneity straightly by discovering the geometric structure of clients with various data generation distributions and getting multiple global models.

A novel traffic accident detection method with comprehensive traffic flow features extraction.

With the rapidly increasing of automobiles, traffic accidents are gradually becoming more frequent. This creates a great need for effective traffic anomaly detection algorithms. Existing methods shed light on directly inferring the abnormalities from traffic flow, which is short in features extraction and representation of traffic flows.

A One Step Procedure toward Conductive Suspensions of Liposome-Polyaniline Complexes.

Interaction of conjugated polymers with liposomes is an attractive approach that benefits from both systems' characteristics such as electroactivity and enhanced interaction with cells. Conjugated polymer-liposome complexes have been investigated for bioimaging, drug delivery, and photothermal therapy. Their fabrication has largely been achieved by multistep procedures that require first the synthesis and processing of the conjugated polymer.

Two strategies to engineer flexible loops for improved enzyme thermostability.

Flexible sites are potential targets for engineering the stability of enzymes. Nevertheless, the success rate of the rigidifying flexible sites (RFS) strategy is still low due to a limited understanding of how to determine the best mutation candidates. In this study, two parallel strategies were applied to identify mutation candidates within the flexible loops of Escherichia coli transketolase (TK).
