We designed a weighted cross-correlation coefficient considering the "anchor" of the T cell epitopes, and used an evolutionary algorithm to search for an optimal weight vector. A SVM model with this new peptide similarity kernel was evaluated on a T-cell data set. The results demonstrated a good performance of this method.

Multichannel template‐based spatial normalization precision in older adult brain QSM.

Background: Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) offers significant potential for studying metal and iron homeostasis in the brain and serves as a diagnostic tool for various pathologies, such as Alzheimer’s disease. However, the precision of QSM spatial normalization for older adults depends on the quality and representativeness of the chosen template and the type of information used during image registration. This study compares three available QSM templates in terms of their representativeness and precision of inter‐subject matching for older adult QSM data.

The effective reproduction number serves as a metric of population-wide, time-varying disease spread. During the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, this metric was primarily derived from case data, which has varied in quality and representativeness due to changes in testing volume, test-seeking behavior, and resource constraints. Deriving nowcasting estimates from alternative data sources such as wastewater provides complementary information that could inform future public health responses.

Background: Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) are commonly used in MRI scans of patients with gliomas to enhance brain tumor characterization using T1-weighted (T1W) MRI. However, there is growing concern about GBCA toxicity. This study develops a deep-learning framework to generate T1-postcontrast (T1C) from pre-contrast multiparametric MRI.

High-capacity communication networks are built to provide high throughput and low latency to accommodate the growing demand for bandwidth. However, the provision of these features is subject to a robust underlying network, which can provide high capacity with maximum reliability in terms of the system's connection availability. This work optimizes an existing 2D spectral-spatial optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) passive optical network (PON) to maximize connection availability while maintaining desirable communication capacity and capital expenditure.

Article Synopsis
- A study explored the variability of EEG signals evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in patients with depressive disorder (DE) compared to healthy controls (HC).
- Researchers analyzed TMS-EEG data from 34 DE patients and 36 HC, finding that DE patients had lower variability in the Gamma band and higher variability in the Delta band compared to HC.
- The findings indicate that the new method used to assess trial-by-trial variability (TTV) in TMS-EEG is more sensitive than traditional methods, providing important insights into the neurophysiological differences in DE.
