When the group in question is P SL(2, R), the authors exhibit a oneone correspondence between bounded harmonic functions on the upper half-plane and a certain class of irreducible representations. This analysis shows that, surprisingly, all these representations are equivalent. In fact, it is found that all irreducible affine representations of this group are equivalent. The key to this is a property called "linear Stone-Weierstrass"for group actions on compact spaces. If it holds for the "universal strongly proximal space"of the group(to be defined), then the induced action on the space of probability measures on this space is the unique irreducible affine representation of the group.展开更多

Inhibiting GRK2 is a promising mechanism for the treatment of heart failure (HF). Further development and optimization of inhibitors targeting GRK2 are highly meaningful. Therefore, in order to design GRK2 inhibitors with better performance, the most active molecule was selected as a reference compound from a data set containing 4-pyridylhydrazone derivatives and triazole derivatives, and its scaffold was extracted as the initial scaffold. Then, a powerful optimization-based framework for de novo drug design, guided by binding affinity, was used to generate a virtual molecular library targeting GRK2. The binding affinity of each virtual compound in this dataset was predicted by our developed deep learning model, and the designed potential compound with high binding affinity was selected for molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. It was found that the designed potential molecule binds to the ATP site of GRK2, which consists of key amino acids including Arg199, Gly200, Phe202, Val205, Lys220, Met274 and Asp335. The scaffold of the molecule is stabilized mainly by H-bonding and hydrophobic contacts. Concurrently, the reference compound in the dataset was also simulated by docking. It was found that this molecule also binds to the ATP site of GRK2. In addition, its scaffold is stabilized mainly by H-bonding and π-cation stacking interactions with Lys220, as well as hydrophobic contacts. The above results show that the designed potential molecule has similar binding modes to the reference compound, supporting the effectiveness of our framework for activity-focused molecular design. Finally, we summarized the interaction characteristics of general GRK2 inhibitors and gained insight into their molecule-target binding mechanisms, thereby facilitating the expansion of lead to hit compound.展开更多

Therefore, in order to design GRK2 inhibitors with better performance, the most active molecule was selected as a reference compound from a data set containing 4-pyridylhydrazone derivatives and triazole derivatives, and its scaffold was extracted as the initial scaffold. Then, a powerful optimization-based framework for de novo drug design, guided by binding affinity, was used to generate a virtual molecular library targeting GRK2. The binding affinity of each virtual compound in this dataset was predicted by our developed deep learning model, and the designed potential compound with high binding affinity was selected for molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. It was found that the designed potential molecule binds to the ATP site of GRK2, which consists of key amino acids including Arg199, Gly200, Phe202, Val205, Lys220, Met274 and Asp335. The scaffold of the molecule is stabilized mainly by H-bonding and hydrophobic contacts. Concurrently, the reference compound in the dataset was also simulated by docking. It was found that this molecule also binds to the ATP site of GRK2. In addition, its scaffold is stabilized mainly by H-bonding and π-cation stacking interactions with Lys220, as well as hydrophobic contacts. The above results show that the designed potential molecule has similar binding modes to the reference compound, supporting the effectiveness of our framework for activity-focused molecular design. Finally, we summarized the interaction characteristics of general GRK2 inhibitors and gained insight into their molecule-target binding mechanisms, thereby facilitating the expansion of lead to hit compound.

文摘Conventional adaptive filtering algorithms often exhibit performance degradation when processing multipath interference in raw echoes of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar(SAR)systems due to anomalous outliers,manifesting as insufficient convergence and low estimation accuracy.To address this issue,this study proposes a novel robust adaptive filtering algorithm,namely the M-estimation-based minimum error entropy with affine projection(APMMEE)algorithm.This algorithm inherits the joint multi-data-block update mechanism of the affine projection algorithm,enabling rapid adaptation to the dynamic characteristics of raw echoes and achieving fast convergence.Meanwhile,it incorporates the M-estimation-based minimum error entropy(MMEE)criterion,which weights error samples in raw echoes through M-estimation functions,effectively suppressing outlier interference during the algorithm update.Both the system identification simulations and practical multipath interference suppression experiments using raw echoes demonstrate that the proposed APMMEE algorithm exhibits superior filtering performance.

文摘During the sizing process,yarn congestion fault occurs at the reed teeth of a sizing machine.At present,the yarn congestion fault is generally handled by manual detection.The sizing production line operates on a large scale and runs continuously.Untimely handling of the yarn congestion fault causes a large amount of yarn waste.In this research,a machine vision-based algorithm for yarn congestion fault detection is developed.Through the analysis of the congestion fault and interference contour characteristics,the basic idea of image phase subtraction to identify the congestion fault is determined.To address the interference information appearing after image phase subtraction,the image pre-processing methods of Canny edge extraction and mean filtering are employed.According to the fault size and location characteristics,the fault contour detection algorithm based on inter-frame difference is designed.To mitigate the camera vibration interference,the anti-vibration interference algorithm based on affine transformation is studied,and the fault detection algorithm for the total yarn congestion fault is determined.The detection of 20 sets of field data is carried out,and the detection rate reaches 90%.This fault detection algorithm realizes the automatic detection of yarn congestion fault of sizing machine with certain real-time performance and accuracy.

文摘NH_(4)V_(4)O_(10)(NVO)as a cathode material of zincion battery is prone to collapse in the repeated process of embedding and de-embedding of Zn^(2+),and its application is limited by the instability of the material.Here,calciumdoped ammonium vanadate(CNVO)is successfully synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal approach.The intercalated Ca2+in NVO serves as a firm pillar between the[VO_n]layers to maintain the structure stability during the ion insertion/extraction process.Furthermore,density functional theory(DFT)calculations and ex situ experiments reveal that CNVO demonstrates higher affinity and conductivity compared to NVO,which can effectively improve the kinetics of Zn^(2+)diffusion,reduce the electrostatic repulsion of Zn^(2+)during intercalation and deintercalation,and maintaining the stability of the layered structure.As a result,the CNVO material demonstrates outstanding electrochemical performance,delivering a specific capacity of 183 m Ah·g^(-1)at 5 A·g^(-1).Moreover,it sustains an impressive 91%capacity retention after 1300 cycles.

文摘The ecological and evolutionary mechanisms underlying montane biodiversity patterns remain unresolved.To understand which factors determined community assembly rules in mountains,biogeographic affinity that represents the biogeographic and evolutionary history of species should incorporate with current environments.We aim to address two following questions:1)How does plant taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity with disparate biogeographic affinitiesvary along the subtropical elevational gradient?2)How do biogeographic affinityand environmental drivers regulate the community assembly?We collected woody plant survey data of 32 forest plots in a subtropical mountain of Mt.Guanshan with typical transitional characteristics,including 250 woody plant species belonging to 56 families and 118 genera.We estimated the effects of biogeographic affinity,climate and soil properties on taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity of plant communities employing linear regression and structural equation models.We found that the richness of temperate-affiliated species increased with elevations,but the evenness decreased,while tropical-affiliatedspecies had no significantpatterns.Winter temperature directly or indirectly via biogeographic affinityshaped the assemblage of woody plant communities along elevations.Biogeographic affinityaffected what kind of species could colonize higher elevations while local environment determined their fitnessto adapt.These results suggest that biogeographic affinityand local environment jointly lead to the dominance of temperate-affiliated species at higher elevations and shape the diversity of woody plant communities along elevational gradients.Our findingshighlight the legacy effect of biogeographic affinityon the composition and structure of subtropical montane forests.

文摘Revealing the latent low-dimensional geometric structure of high-dimensional data is a crucial task in unsupervised representation learning.Traditional manifold learning,as a typical method for discovering latent geometric structures,has provided important nonlinear insight for the theoretical development of unsupervised representation learning.However,due to the shallow learning mechanism of the existing methods,they can only exploit the simple geometric structure embedded in the initial data,such as the local linear structure.Traditional manifold learning methods are fairly limited in mining higher-order nonlinear geometric information,which is also crucial for the development of unsupervised representation learning.To address the abovementioned limitations,this paper proposes a novel dynamic geometric structure learning model(DGSL)to explore the true latent nonlinear geometric structure.Specifically,by mathematically analysing the reconstruction loss function of manifold learning,we first provide universal geometric relational function between the curvature and the non-Euclidean metric of the initial data.Then,we leverage geometric flow to design a deeply iterative learning model to optimize this relational function.Our method can be viewed as a general-purpose algorithm for mining latent geometric structures,which can enhance the performance of geometric representation methods.Experimentally,we perform a set of representation learning tasks on several datasets.The experimental results show that our proposed method is superior to traditional methods.

文摘Sini Decoction(SNT)is a traditional formula recognized for its efficacy in warming the spleen and stomach and dispersing cold.However,elucidating the mechanism of action of SNT remains challenging due to its complex multiple components.This study utilized a synergistic approach combining two-dimensional fluorescence difference in gel electrophoresis(2D-DIGE)-based drug affinity responsive target stability(DARTS)with label-free quantitative proteomics techniques to identify the direct and indirect protein targets of SNT in myocardial infarction.The analysis identified 590 proteins,with 30 proteins showing significant upregulation and 51 proteins showing downregulation when comparing the SNT group with the model group.Through the integration of 2D-DIGE DARTS with proteomics data and pharmacological assessments,the findings indicate that protein disulfide-isomerase A3(PDIA3)may serve as a potential protein target through which SNT provides protective effects on myocardial cells during myocardial infarction.

文摘The ion coordination affinities of the commonly found metal ions were evaluated using DFT calculations.The results indicate that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO)energy of metal ions correlates positively with their binding energies with O(S)ligands,and some metal ions with various valence states also present different affinities.Besides,due to the steric hindrance effects,the mono-and hexa-coordinated metal ions may exhibit different affinities,and the majority of the studied hexa-coordinated metal ions exhibit oxophilicity.These affinity differences perfectly illustrate the activation flotation practice in which the oxyphilic ions are applied to activating oxide minerals,while thiophilic ions are applied to activating sulfide minerals.

Virtual knot theory is a generalization of classical knot theory, and its research is carried out through a graphic theory. The virtual knot polynomial refers to a class of virtual knot invariant expressed by polynomials, such as the Arrow polynomial and the Wriggle polynomial. The affine index polynomial is a univariate polynomial defined by the integer label of a virtual knot graph. In this paper, we mainly calculate affine index polynomials for a special class of virtual knots. According to the rules of Cheng coloring, we will integer label each arc of the virtual knot graph and calculate the index value of each classical crossings, and then get the expression of the affine index polynomial of this special virtual knot.

文摘In this paper,we shall study structures of even lattice vertex operator algebras by using the geometry of the varieties of their semi-conformal vectors.We first give the varieties of semi-conformal vectors of a family of vertex operator algebras V_(√kA_(1)) associated to rank-one positive definite even lattices √kA_(1) for arbitrary positive integers k to characterize these even lattice vertex operator algebras.In such a family of lattice vertex operator algebras V_(√kA_(1)),the vertex operator algebra V_(√2A_(1)) is different from others.Hence we describe the varieties of semi-conformal vectors of V_(√2A_(1)) and the fixed vertex operator subalgebra V^(+)√2A_(1).Moreover,as applications,we study the relations between vertex operator algebras V_(√kA_(1) )and L_(sl_(2))(k,0)for arbitrary positive integers k by the viewpoint of semi-conformal homomorphisms of vertex operator algebras.For case k=2,in the series of rational simple affine vertex operator algebras L_(sl_(2))(k,0)for positive integers k,we show that L_(sl_(2))(2,0)is a unique frame vertex operator algebra with rank 3.
