Goal: Evoked or Event-Related Potential (EP/ERP) detection is a major area of interest within the domain of EEG (electroencephalography) signal processing. While traditional methods of EEG processing have mostly focused on enhancing signal components, few have explored background noise suppression techniques. Optimizing the suppression of background noise can play a critical role in improving the performance of EP/ERP detection.
Methods: In this study, a spatio-temporal equalization (STE) method was proposed based on the Multivariate Autoregressive (MVAR) model, which has been shown to suppress the spatio-temporal correlation of background noise and improve the EEG signal detection performance.
Results: For practical applications, two optimization schemes based on the spatio-temporal equalization method were designed to solve two common challenges in EEG signal detection: P300 and steady state visual evoked potentials. Our results demonstrated that the STE method effectively improves recognition performance of evoked or event-related potential detection. Additionally, the STE method offers fewer parameters, lower computational complexity, and easier implementation.
Conclusion: These attributes allow the STE approach to be extended as a preprocessing method which can be used in combination with existing techniques.

Mental representation of spatial information relies on egocentric (body-based) and allocentric (environment-based) frames of reference. Research showed that spatial memory deteriorates as Alzheimer's disease (AD) progresses and that allocentric spatial memory is among the earliest impaired areas. Most studies have been conducted in static situations despite the dynamic nature of real-world spatial processing.

The Taihangshan-Yanshan Region is an important ecological barrier area in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and it is of great importance to investigate the spatial distribution pattern and driving mechanism of net primary productivity （NPP） of vegetation for ecological restoration. The MOD17A3HGF.061 NPP dataset was obtained using the Google earth engine（GEE）, and Sen trend, coefficient of variation, partial correlation, complex correlation, and residual analysis were applied to investigate the spatial and temporal patterns of vegetation NPP in the study area and to quantitatively isolate the relative contributions of climate change and human activities.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play important roles in intercellular communication in various biological events. In particular, EVs released from cancer cells have attracted special attention. Although it has been reported that cancer-associated glycosphingolipids play important roles in the enhancement of malignant properties of cancer cells, the presence, behavior, and roles of glycosphingolipids in EVs have not been elucidated.

Experimentally monitoring the kinematics of branching network growth is a tricky task, given the complexity of the structures generated in three dimensions. One option is to drive the network in such a way as to obtain two-dimensional growth, enabling a collection of independent images to be obtained. The density of the network generates ambiguous structures, such as overlaps and meetings, which hinder the reconstruction of the chronology of connections.

In this study, we examine the spatio-temporal patterns of citizen-reported human-bear conflict (HBC) from 2002 to 2022 and use the Forest-Based and Boosted Classification (FBBC) technique to assess the significance of several factors in the occurrence of HBC. Our analysis reveals a significant increase in HBC incidents over the study period, with the fewest conflicts in 2002 (217) and the most in 2022 (4455). These were concentrated in northwestern Connecticut, particularly eastern Litchfield County and western Hartford County.
