This article revisits Artificial Neural Networks (NNs) through the lens of Evolutionary Dynamics. The two most important features of NNs are shown to reflect the two most general processes of Evolutionary Dynamics. This overlap may serve as a new and powerful connection between NNs and Evolutionary Dynamics, which encompasses a body of knowledge that has been built over multiple centuries and has been expanded to inspire applications across a vast range of disciplines. Consequently, NNs should also be applicable across the same range of disciplines-that is, much more broadly than initially envisioned. The article concludes by opening questions about NN dynamics, based on the new connection to Evolutionary Dynamics.

Enhancing security and efficiency in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks using a hybrid deep learning model for flooding attack detection.
Sci Rep
January 2025
North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, Durham, NC, 27705, USA.
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are increasingly replacing conventional communication systems due to their decentralized and dynamic nature. However, their wireless architecture makes them highly vulnerable to flooding attacks, which can disrupt communication, deplete energy resources, and degrade network performance. This study presents a novel hybrid deep learning approach integrating Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) architectures to effectively detect and mitigate flooding attacks in MANETs.

State Key Laboratory of Continental Dynamics, Northwest University, Xi'an, 710069, China.
Addressing loess salinisation is a crucial element in preserving ecological stability and fostering sustainable development in the northwest Loess Plateau. To investigate the impacts of salt solution on the properties of loess, independently designed salt solution-loess dynamic cyclic erosion equipment was used to soak the loess. Then, numerous tests were performed to analyse the variability of the effects of salt solution concentrations (SSC) and type, as well as the duration of soaking time, on these physico-mechanical properties.

Objectives: Toona sinensis, commonly known as Chinese toon, is a perennial woody plant with significant economic and ecological importance. This study employed whole-genome resequencing of 180 T. sinensis samples collected from Shandong to analyze genetic variation and diversity, ultimately identifying 18,231 high-quality SNPs after rigorous quality control and linkage disequilibrium pruning.
