The principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to Raman spectra of polycrystalline BaTiO(3) under pressure from atmospheric pressure to approximately 6.72 GPa. For the system utilized, PCA was able to distinguish spectral features and to determine the phase transition pressure: tetragonal to cubic at approximately 2.0 GPa. The present study demonstrates the potentialities of the application of PCA to the investigation on phase transitions at high pressure by Raman spectroscopy.

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) provides critical insights into the complex spatial organization of gene expression in tissues, enabling researchers to unravel the intricate relationship between cellular environments and biological function. Identifying spatial domains within tissues is essential for understanding tissue architecture and the mechanisms underlying various biological processes, including development and disease progression. Here, we present Randomized Spatial PCA (RASP), a novel spatially aware dimensionality reduction method for spatial transcriptomics (ST) data.

Achieving this aim relies on determining mechanisms underlying capacity to respond resiliently. This paper seeks proof of principle for the hypothesis that physical aspects of said capacity are rooted in the fitness of one's physiology governing stress response, conceptualized as a dynamical system.

Neurodegeneration in glaucoma patients is clinically identified through longitudinal assessment of structure-function changes, including intraocular pressure, cup-to-disc ratios from fundus images, and optical coherence tomography imaging of the retinal nerve fiber layer. Use of human post-mortem ocular tissue for basic research is rising in the glaucoma field, yet there are challenges in assessing disease stage and severity, since tissue donations with informed consent are often unaccompanied by detailed pre-mortem clinical information. Further, the interpretation of disease severity based solely on anatomical and morphological assessments by histology can be affected by differences in death-to-preservation time and tissue processing.
