This study proposes a novel approach for predicting variations in water quality at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), which is crucial for optimizing process management and pollution control. The model combines convolutional bi-directional gated recursive units (CBGRUs) with adaptive bandwidth kernel function density estimation (ABKDE) to address the challenge of multivariate time series interval prediction of WWTP water quality. Initially, wavelet transform (WT) was employed to smooth the water quality data, reducing noise and fluctuations.

The traveling car renter problem (TCRP) is a variant of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) wherein the salesman utilizes rented cars for travel. The primary objective of this problem is to identify a solution that minimizes the cumulative operating costs. Given its classification as a non-deterministic polynomial (NP) problem, traditional computers are not proficient in effectively resolving it.

Accurate air quality index (AQI) prediction is essential in environmental monitoring and management. Given that previous studies neglect the importance of uncertainty estimation and the necessity of constraining the output during prediction, we proposed a new hybrid model, namely TMSSICX, to forecast the AQI of multiple cities. Firstly, time-varying filtered based empirical mode decomposition (TVFEMD) was adopted to decompose the AQI sequence into multiple internal mode functions (IMF) components.

Accurate water quality predictions are critical for water resource protection, and dissolved oxygen (DO) reflects overall river water quality and ecosystem health. This study proposes a hybrid model based on the fusion of signal decomposition and deep learning for predicting river water quality. Initially, complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) is employed to split the internal series of DO into numerous internal mode functions (IMFs).

Spin polarization of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface of EuTiO/SrTiO(STO) heterostructures has been theoretical predicted and experimentally observed via x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and polarized x-ray absorption spectroscopy, which, however, is lack of magnetotransport evidence. Here, we report the fabrication of high-quality EuTiO/STO heterostructures by depositing antiferromagnetic insulating EuTiOthin films onto STO substrates. Shubnikov-de Haas oscillation, Hall, and magnetoresistance (MR) measurements show that the interface is not only highly conducting, with electron mobility up to5.

The min-max clustered traveling salesmen problem (MMCTSP) is a generalized variant of the classical traveling salesman problem (TSP). In this problem, the vertices of the graph are partitioned into a given number of clusters and we are asked to find a collection of tours to visit all the vertices with the constraint that the vertices of each cluster are visited consecutively. The objective of the problem is to minimize the weight of the maximum weight tour.

High-quality NdCrSb single crystals are grown using a Sn-flux method, for electronic transport and magnetic structure study. Ferromagnetic ordering of the Nd and Cr magnetic sublattices are observed at different temperatures and along different crystallographic axes. Due to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction between the two magnetic sublattices, the Cr moments rotate from the axis to the axis upon cooling, resulting in a spin reorientation (SR) transition.

The quota traveling salesman problem (QTSP) is a variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP), which is a classical optimization problem. In the QTSP, the salesman visits some of the cities to meet a given sales quota while having minimized travel costs. In this paper, we develop a DNA algorithm based on Adleman-Lipton model to solve the quota traveling salesman problem.

The Family Traveling Salesperson Problem (FTSP) is a variant of the Traveling Salesperson Problem (TSP), in which all vertices are divided into several different families, and the goal of the problem is to find a loop that concatenates a specified number of vertices with minimal loop overhead. As a Non-deterministic Polynomial Complete (NP-complete) problem, it is difficult to deal with it by the traditional computing. On the contrary, as a computer with strong parallel ability, the DNA computer has incomparable advantages over digital computers when dealing with NP problems.

A novel all-fiber broadband mode multiplexer based on an elliptical ring core fiber structure mode selective coupler (MSC) is proposed and analyzed numerically. The MSC is composed of a core-doped single-mode fiber and a polarization-maintaining elliptical ring-shaped core few-mode fiber (FMF). The mode multiplexing can be implemented by a single LP mode excitation that does not introduce insertion loss, which can simplify and promote the multiplexer.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed allele frequencies of six short tandem repeat (STR) loci in the Han population of Henan province using DNA from blood samples, amplified through PCR, and examined via PAGE electrophoresis.
  • Results indicated three alleles for F13A1, with F13A1 * 7 being the most common (45.2% frequency), and varying frequencies found for other loci such as F13B and D8S1179.
  • High heterozygosities and adherence to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium among the six loci suggest they are effective genetic markers for individual identification and paternity testing in forensic applications.
