Motor cortical local field potentials (LFPs) have been successfully used to decode both kinematics and kinetics of arm movement. For future clinically viable prostheses, however, brain activity decoders will have to generalize well under a wide spectrum of behavioral conditions. This property has not yet been demonstrated clearly. Here, we provide evidence for the first time, that an LFP-based electromyogram (EMG) decoder can generalize reasonably well across two different types of behavior. We implanted intracortical microelectrode arrays in the primary motor (M1) and ventral pre-motor (PMv) cortices of a rhesus macaque, and recorded LFP and EMG activity from arm and hand muscles of the contralateral forelimb during a two-dimensional (2-D) centre-out isometric wrist torque task (TT), and during free reach and grasp behavior (FB). Selected temporal and spectral features of the LFP signals were used to train EMG decoders using data from both types of behavior separately. We assessed the decoding performance for both within- and across-task cases. The average achieved generalization score was 65 ± 20%, while in many cases individual scores reached 100%.

AtbZIP69 overexpression in wheat significantly enhanced drought and low nitrogen tolerance by modulating ABA synthesis, antioxidant activity, nitrogen allocation, and transporter gene expression, boosting yield. In this study, we generated wheat plants with improved low nitrogen (LN) and drought tolerance by introducing AtbZIP69, a gene encoding a basic leucine zipper domain transcription factor, into the wheat cultivar Shi 4056. AtbZIP69 localized to the nucleus and activated transcription.

Developing sustainable structural materials to replace traditional carbon-intensive structural materials fundamentally reshapes the concept of circular development. Herein, we propose an interface engineering strategy that utilizes water as a liquid medium to replace the residual air within natural wood. This approach minimizes the absorption of water-based softening agents by microcapillary channels of wood, enabling the controlled softening of the cell walls.

Ocular surface chemical injuries often result in permanent visual impairment and necessitate complex, long-term treatments. Immediate and extensive irrigation serves as the first-line intervention, followed by various therapeutic protocols applied throughout different stages of the condition. To optimize outcomes, conventional regimens increasingly incorporate biological agents and surgical techniques.

Adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) provides individualized therapy for people with Parkinson's disease (PWP) by adjusting the stimulation in real-time using neural signals that reflect their motor state. Current algorithms, however, utilize condensed and manually selected neural features which may result in a less robust and biased therapy. In this study, we propose Neural-to-Gait Neural network (N2GNet), a novel deep learning-based regression model capable of tracking real-time gait performance from subthalamic nucleus local field potentials (STN LFPs).

It is well known that the sedimentary rock record is both incomplete and biased by spatially highly variable rates of sedimentation. Without absolute age constraints of sufficient resolution, the temporal correlation of spatially disjunct records is therefore problematic and uncertain, but these effects have rarely been analysed quantitatively using signal processing methods. Here we use a computational process model to illustrate and analyse how spatial and temporal geochemical records can be biased by the inherent, heterogenous processes of marine sedimentation and preservation.
