Wildlife forensics is a relatively underexplored field of science. It provides forensic evidence to support legal investigations involving wildlife crime, such as the trafficking and poaching of animals and/or their goods. The consequences of poaching are not just limited to a decline in animal welfare and include the spread of zoonotic disease, species, cultural and habitat loss, and injury of anti-poaching rangers.

Despite significant advancements in single-cell representation learning, scalability and managing sparsity and dropout events continue to challenge the field as scRNA-seq datasets expand. While current computational tools struggle to maintain both efficiency and accuracy, the accurate connection of these dropout events to specific biological functions usually requires additional, complex experiments, often hampered by potential inaccuracies in cell-type annotation. To tackle these challenges, the Zero-Inflated Graph Attention Collaborative Learning (ZIGACL) method has been developed.

The forensic Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) fingerprinting is a tool for investigating crime scenes by identifying/tracing criminals and linking crime scenes. However, in cases where experts are unable to detect and identify any biological traces or human-derived cells at the crime scene or while testing the samples in the laboratories, all the advantages offered by forensic laboratories lose their significance. It becomes a waste of time, effort, and resources allocated to these laboratories.

Article Synopsis
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted women's mental health, leading to greater declines in life satisfaction compared to men.
  • Women initially reported higher life satisfaction levels before the pandemic but experienced a faster decline once it began, which time-use differences could not explain.
  • This study highlights the need for further research to understand and address gender inequalities in mental health outcomes emerging from the pandemic.

Tensor data is common in real-world applications, such as recommendation system and air quality monitoring. But such data is often sparse, noisy, and fast produced. CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) is a popular tensor decomposition model, which is both theoretically advantageous and numerically stable.
