We investigate the feasibility of using a known elastic target located near the seabed for the purpose of inferring characteristics of marine sediment. In the problem considered the object position and its burial depth are not known with precision. First, the admittance matrix of the elastic object is determined (numerically or experimentally) over a wide frequency range in the structural acoustic regime. Then, the equivalent source method (ESM) coupled with a spectral representation of the Green's functions in stratified domains is used to predict the object acoustic signature in various environments and experimental configurations. The resulting solver takes into account all multiple scattering between target (buried or not), sea floor, and sea surface and is not limited to short distances. After presenting the solution to the forward problem several synthetic inversions for sediment characteristics are shown. They are based upon a resonance-based misfit function we describe. The Bayesian procedure also infers object burial and source-object range, broadening its range of application.

Background: The advancements in second-/third-generation sequencing technologies, alongside computational innovations, have significantly enhanced our understanding of the genomic structure of Y-chromosomes and their unique phylogenetic characteristics. These researches, despite the challenges posed by the lack of population-scale genomic databases, have the potential to revolutionize our approach to high-resolution, population-specific Y-chromosome panels and databases for anthropological and forensic applications.

Objectives: This study aimed to develop the highest-resolution Y-targeted sequencing panel, utilizing time-stamped, core phylogenetic informative mutations identified from high-coverage sequences in the YanHuang cohort.

Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR) genes encode a pivotal class of plant immune receptors. However, their rampant duplication and loss have made inferring their genomic evolutionary trajectory difficult, exemplified by the loss of TNL family genes in monocots. In this study, we introduce a novel classification system for angiosperm NLR genes, grounded in network analysis of micro-synteny information.

Background: The conventional treatment for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) is surgery; however, the efficacy of definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) remains controversial.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the ability of deep learning (DL) models to identify patients with LA-HNSCC who can achieve organ preservation through definitive CRT and provide individualized adjuvant treatment recommendations for patients who are better suited for surgery.

Methods: Five models were developed for treatment recommendations.
