A dimerization domain in the middle region acts as a hub for protein–protein interaction, while a non-canonical RNA-binding site is placed towards the C-terminus. The singular organization of structural domains present in GEMIN5 enables this protein to perform multiple functions through its ability to interact with distinct partners, both RNAs and proteins. This protein exerts a different role in translation regulation depending on its physiological state, such that while GEMIN5 down-regulates global RNA translation, the C-terminal half of the protein promotes translation of its mRNA. Additionally, GEMIN5 is responsible for the preferential partitioning of mRNAs into polysomes. Besides selective translation, GEMIN5 forms part of distinct ribonucleoprotein complexes, reflecting the dynamic organization of macromolecular complexes in response to internal and external signals. In accordance with its contribution to fundamental cellular processes, recent reports described clinical loss of function mutants suggesting that GEMIN5 deficiency is detrimental to cell growth and survival. Remarkably, patients carrying GEMIN5 biallelic variants suffer from neurodevelopmental delay, hypotonia, and cerebellar ataxia. Molecular analyses of individual variants, which are defective in protein dimerization, display decreased levels of ribosome association, reinforcing the involvement of the protein in translation regulation. Importantly, the number of clinical variants and the phenotypic spectrum associated with GEMIN5 disorders is increasing as the knowledge of the protein functions and the pathways linked to its activity augments. Here we discuss relevant advances concerning the functional and structural features of GEMIN5 and its separate domains in RNA-binding, protein interactome, and translation regulation, and how these data can help to understand the involvement of protein malfunction in clinical variants found in patients developing neurodevelopmental disorders.展开更多

文摘Understanding how rock slopes respond to blasting loads is crucial for maintaining excavation safety and slope stability.Nevertheless,the spatiotemporal evolution,nonlinear dependence on blasting parameters,and predictive behavior of dominant frequency responses in slope vibrations remain insufficiently understood and quantified.This study combines time-frequency analysis with machine learning to explore how the dominant frequency(f_(d))evolves in slopes under blasting.Continuous Wavelet Transform(CWT)was employed to characterize the temporal-frequency evolution of vibration signals,revealing that the dominant frequency exhibits strong spatial dependence and nonlinear variability influenced by blasting parameters and rock mass structures.Three machine learning models,namely Back Propagation Neural Network(BP),Support Vector Machine(SVM),and Random Forest(RF),were developed to predict f_(d) based on 1,000 monitoring samples obtained from numerical and field simulations.Among them,the RF model achieved the highest prediction accuracy,with mean absolute percentage errors(MAPE)below 15%,demonstrating strong robustness and generalization capability.Our analysis shows that external excitation factors,especially the loading frequency(f_(d)),mainly control the frequency response,while internal controlling factors,such as spatial position,lithological variation,and mechanical heterogeneity,modulate localized frequency amplification and energy redistribution.The results reveal that f_(d) tends to decrease with elevation and distance from the blasting source,whereas structural planes and weathered zones induce high-frequency amplification due to scattering and modal coupling effects.This study offers a new framework combining time-frequency analysis and machine learning to measure the nonlinear interaction between blasting and rock mass response,offering new insights for dynamic stability evaluation and hazard mitigation in complex rock slope systems.

文摘Planning in lexical-prior-free environments presents a fundamental challenge for evaluating whether large language models(LLMs)possess genuine structural reasoning capabilities beyond lexical memorization.When predicates and action names are replaced with semantically irrelevant random symbols while preserving logical structures,existing direct generation approaches exhibit severe performance degradation.This paper proposes a symbol-agnostic closed-loop planning pipeline that enables models to construct executable plans through systematic validation and iterative refinement.The system implements a complete generate-verify-repair cycle through six core processing components:semantic comprehension extracts structural constraints,language planner generates text plans,symbol translator performs structure-preserving mapping,consistency checker conducts static screening,Stanford Research Institute Problem Solver(STRIPS)simulator executes step-by-step validation,and VAL(Validator)provides semantic verification.A repair controller orchestrates four targeted strategies addressing typical failure patterns including first-step precondition errors andmid-segment statemaintenance issues.Comprehensive evaluation on PlanBench Mystery Blocksworld demonstrates substantial improvements over baseline approaches across both language models and reasoning models.Ablation studies confirm that each architectural component contributes non-redundantly to overall effectiveness,with targeted repair providing the largest impact,followed by deep constraint extraction and stepwise validation,demonstrating that superior performance emerges from synergistic integration of these mechanisms rather than any single dominant factor.Analysis reveals distinct failure patterns betweenmodel types—languagemodels struggle with local precondition satisfaction while reasoning models face global goal achievement challenges—yet the validation-driven mechanism successfully addresses these diverse weaknesses.A particularly noteworthy finding is the convergence of final success rates across models with varying intrinsic capabilities,suggesting that systematic validation and repair mechanisms play a more decisive role than raw model capacity in lexical-prior-free scenarios.This work establishes a rigorous evaluation framework incorporating statistical significance testing and mechanistic failure analysis,providingmethodological contributions for fair assessment and practical insights into building reliable planning systems under extreme constraint conditions.

文摘Domain adaptation aims to reduce the distribution gap between the training data(source domain)and the target data.This enables effective predictions even for domains not seen during training.However,most conventional domain adaptation methods assume a single source domain,making them less suitable for modern deep learning settings that rely on diverse and large-scale datasets.To address this limitation,recent research has focused on Multi-Source Domain Adaptation(MSDA),which aims to learn effectively from multiple source domains.In this paper,we propose Efficient Domain Transition for Multi-source(EDTM),a novel and efficient framework designed to tackle two major challenges in existing MSDA approaches:(1)integrating knowledge across different source domains and(2)aligning label distributions between source and target domains.EDTM leverages an ensemble-based classifier expert mechanism to enhance the contribution of source domains that are more similar to the target domain.To further stabilize the learning process and improve performance,we incorporate imitation learning into the training of the target model.In addition,Maximum Classifier Discrepancy(MCD)is employed to align class-wise label distributions between the source and target domains.Experiments were conducted using Digits-Five,one of the most representative benchmark datasets for MSDA.The results show that EDTM consistently outperforms existing methods in terms of average classification accuracy.Notably,EDTM achieved significantly higher performance on target domains such as Modified National Institute of Standards and Technolog with blended background images(MNIST-M)and Street View House Numbers(SVHN)datasets,demonstrating enhanced generalization compared to baseline approaches.Furthermore,an ablation study analyzing the contribution of each loss component validated the effectiveness of the framework,highlighting the importance of each module in achieving optimal performance.

文摘To address the issue of scarce labeled samples and operational condition variations that degrade the accuracy of fault diagnosis models in variable-condition gearbox fault diagnosis,this paper proposes a semi-supervised masked contrastive learning and domain adaptation(SSMCL-DA)method for gearbox fault diagnosis under variable conditions.Initially,during the unsupervised pre-training phase,a dual signal augmentation strategy is devised,which simultaneously applies random masking in the time domain and random scaling in the frequency domain to unlabeled samples,thereby constructing more challenging positive sample pairs to guide the encoder in learning intrinsic features robust to condition variations.Subsequently,a ConvNeXt-Transformer hybrid architecture is employed,integrating the superior local detail modeling capacity of ConvNeXt with the robust global perception capability of Transformer to enhance feature extraction in complex scenarios.Thereafter,a contrastive learning model is constructed with the optimization objective of maximizing feature similarity across different masked instances of the same sample,enabling the extraction of consistent features from multiple masked perspectives and reducing reliance on labeled data.In the final supervised fine-tuning phase,a multi-scale attention mechanism is incorporated for feature rectification,and a domain adaptation module combining Local Maximum Mean Discrepancy(LMMD)with adversarial learning is proposed.This module embodies a dual mechanism:LMMD facilitates fine-grained class-conditional alignment,compelling features of identical fault classes to converge across varying conditions,while the domain discriminator utilizes adversarial training to guide the feature extractor toward learning domain-invariant features.Working in concert,they markedly diminish feature distribution discrepancies induced by changes in load,rotational speed,and other factors,thereby boosting the model’s adaptability to cross-condition scenarios.Experimental evaluations on the WT planetary gearbox dataset and the Case Western Reserve University(CWRU)bearing dataset demonstrate that the SSMCL-DA model effectively identifies multiple fault classes in gearboxes,with diagnostic performance substantially surpassing that of conventional methods.Under cross-condition scenarios,the model attains fault diagnosis accuracies of 99.21%for the WT planetary gearbox and 99.86%for the bearings,respectively.Furthermore,the model exhibits stable generalization capability in cross-device settings.

文摘This paper introduces a small perturbation frequency domain thermal analysis model based on the nonlinear dynamics model.The model can be applied to study the high-precision temperature control of thermal systems under low-frequency complex perturbations.The frequency domain characteristics of the space gravitational wave detection satellite are analyzed,and a multi-channel perturbation structure is established.The effects of three kinds of heat flow perturbations,including external heat flow,power generation power,and waste heat of electronic equipment,on the temperature through five transfer paths are investigated.It has been discovered that the waste heat from electronic equipment inside the satellite has the most noticeable effect on the temperature power spectral density of temperature-sensitive optical loads,serving as the primary factor influencing thermal stability.For complex noise signals,the small perturbation analysis method can decompose the different frequency components or ranges,reducing the problem to linearized analysis and simplifying complex calculations.The results indicate that the temperature power spectral density decreases as signal frequency increases,with low-frequency signals exerting a greater influence on temperature stability.The small perturbation analysis method is a novel and effective method for temperature control of space thermal systems,with high accuracy and stability.

文摘Human motion modeling is a core technology in computer animation,game development,and humancomputer interaction.In particular,generating natural and coherent in-between motion using only the initial and terminal frames remains a fundamental yet unresolved challenge.Existing methods typically rely on dense keyframe inputs or complex prior structures,making it difficult to balance motion quality and plausibility under conditions such as sparse constraints,long-term dependencies,and diverse motion styles.To address this,we propose a motion generation framework based on a frequency-domain diffusion model,which aims to better model complex motion distributions and enhance generation stability under sparse conditions.Our method maps motion sequences to the frequency domain via the Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT),enabling more effective modeling of low-frequency motion structures while suppressing high-frequency noise.A denoising network based on self-attention is introduced to capture long-range temporal dependencies and improve global structural awareness.Additionally,a multi-objective loss function is employed to jointly optimize motion smoothness,pose diversity,and anatomical consistency,enhancing the realism and physical plausibility of the generated sequences.Comparative experiments on the Human3.6M and LaFAN1 datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches across multiple performance metrics,showing stronger capabilities in generating intermediate motion frames.This research offers a new perspective and methodology for human motion generation and holds promise for applications in character animation,game development,and virtual interaction.

文摘Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs)have become valuable tools in medical imaging,enabling realistic image synthesis for enhancement,augmentation,and restoration.However,their integration into clinical workflows raises concerns,particularly the risk of subtle distortions or hallucinations that may undermine diagnostic accuracy and weaken trust in AI-assisted decision-making.To address this challenge,we propose a hybrid deep learning framework designed to detect GAN-induced artifacts in medical images,thereby reinforcing the reliability of AI-driven diagnostics.The framework integrates low-level statistical descriptors,including high-frequency residuals and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)texture features,with high-level semantic representations extracted from a pre-trained ResNet18.This dual-stream approach enables detection of both pixel-level anomalies and structural inconsistencies introduced by GAN-based manipulation.We validated the framework on a curated dataset of 10,000 medical images,evenly split between authentic and GAN-generated samples across four modalities:MRI,CT,X-ray,and fundus photography.To improve generalizability to real-world clinical settings,we incorporated domain adaptation strategies such as adversarial training and style transfer,reducing domain shift by 15%.Experimental results demonstrate robust performance,achieving 92.6%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.91 on synthetic test data,and maintaining strong performance on real-world GAN-modified images with 87.3%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.85.Additionally,the model attained an AUC of 0.96 and an average precision of 0.92,outperforming conventional GAN detection pipelines and baseline Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architectures.These findings establish the proposed framework as an effective and reliable solution for detecting GAN-induced hallucinations in medical imaging,representing an important step toward building trustworthy and clinically deployable AI systems.

文摘As a closed-loop learning control method,repetitive control has been widely used in a variety of areas from appliances to aviation.A repetitive control system features perfect reference tracking and disturbance rejection in the steady state for periodic signals with a fixed period.This characteristic is important not only for conventional technologies and conventional industries but also for advanced technologies and emerging industries.This paper first explains the concept of repetitive control from its original idea.Next,it describes the structure of a repetitive controller as an internal model and shows the respective points of continuous-and discrete-time repetitive control.It presents a categorized list of practical applications of repetitive control.Moreover,two concrete applications,namely the control of a robotic manipulator and a rotating system,demonstrate the validity of the method with experimental results.Several current studies in this field are also reviewed,and some challenges and future studies for repetitive control are provided.

文摘The precise tuning of magnetic nanoparticle size and magnetic domains,thereby shaping magnetic properties.However,the dynamic evolution mechanisms of magnetic domain configurations in relation to electromagnetic(EM)attenuation behavior remain poorly understood.To address this gap,a thermodynamically controlled periodic coordination strategy is proposed to achieve precise modulation of magnetic nanoparticle spacing.This approach unveils the evolution of magnetic domain configurations,progressing from individual to coupled and ultimately to crosslinked domain configurations.A unique magnetic coupling phenomenon surpasses the Snoek limit in low-frequency range,which is observed through micromagnetic simulation.The crosslinked magnetic configuration achieves effective low-frequency EM wave absorption at 3.68 GHz,encompassing nearly the entire C-band.This exceptional magnetic interaction significantly enhances radar camouflage and thermal insulation properties.Additionally,a robust gradient metamaterial design extends coverage across the full band(2–40 GHz),effectively mitigating the impact of EM pollution on human health and environment.This comprehensive study elucidates the evolution mechanisms of magnetic domain configurations,addresses gaps in dynamic magnetic modulation,and provides novel insights for the development of high-performance,low-frequency EM wave absorption materials.

文摘Objectives:Tamoxifen is a key drug that provides endocrine therapy for estrogen receptor(ER)α-positive breast cancer;however,resistance remains a significant clinical challenge.This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms of tamoxifen resistance in ERα-positive breast cancer,with particular focus on the role of SET Domain Containing 1A(SETD1A)-driven forkhead box A2(FOXA2)as a key regulator of this resistance.Methods:FOXA2 expression and its regulation by SETD1A were assessed via(quantitative polymerase chain reaction),western blotting,transcriptome profiling,and chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses.The effects of FOXA2 on cell proliferation,migration,invasion,and cancer stem cell traits were evaluated using small interfering RNA(siRNA)-mediated silencing.Clinical relevance was examined by analyzing patient datasets and tumor tissue microarrays.Results:FOXA2 expression was significantly elevated in tamoxifen-resistant(TamR)and ERα-negative breast cancer cells compared to that in ERα-positive MCF-7 cells,regardless of tamoxifen treatment or ERαdepletion.Transcriptome and chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses revealed that SETD1A,a histone methyltransferase,directly regulated FOXA2 expression.Functionally,FOXA2 knockdown inhibited the proliferation,migration,invasion,and cancer stem cell properties of TamR cells while restoring tamoxifen sensitivity.High FOXA2 expression was correlated with poor survival and reduced responsiveness to tamoxifen in patients with ER-positive breast cancer.Conclusion:Our findings identified FOXA2 as a key mediator of tamoxifen resistance regulated by SETD1A and suggested that targeting the SETD1A-FOXA2 axis may offer a novel strategy for overcoming endocrine resistance in breast cancer.
文摘Optical coherence tomography(OCT),particularly Swept-Source OCT,is widely employed in medical diagnostics and industrial inspections owing to its high-resolution imaging capabilities.However,Swept-Source OCT 3D imaging often suffers from stripe artifacts caused by unstable light sources,system noise,and environmental interference,posing challenges to real-time processing of large-scale datasets.To address this issue,this study introduces a real-time reconstruction system that integrates stripe-artifact suppression and parallel computing using a graphics processing unit.This approach employs a frequency-domain filtering algorithm with adaptive anti-suppression parameters,dynamically adjusted through an image quality evaluation function and optimized using a convolutional neural network for complex frequency-domain feature learning.Additionally,a graphics processing unit integrated 3D reconstruction framework is developed,enhancing data processing throughput and real-time performance via a dual-queue decoupling mechanism.Experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in structural similarity(0.92),peak signal-to-noise ratio(31.62 dB),and stripe suppression ratio(15.73 dB)compared with existing methods.On the RTX 4090 platform,the proposed system achieved an end-to-end delay of 94.36 milliseconds,a frame rate of 10.3 frames per second,and a throughput of 121.5 million voxels per second,effectively suppressing artifacts while preserving image details and enhancing real-time 3D reconstruction performance.

文摘This study investigates the motion behavior of a slender flexible particle in a backward-facing step(BFS)flow using the direct-forcing fictitious domain method,with a particular focus on the trapping phenomena near the separation vortex region.Three distinct motion modes are identified:periodic rotation or oscillation within the vortex(trapping),downstream transport(escape),and transition state exhibiting unstable trapping.A dynamic balance among inward migration,centrifugal effects,wall interactions,and elastic forces enables the particle to achieve stable orbital motion within two distinct limit cycles.The topology of these orbits is governed by parameters,including the aspect ratio,structural flexibility,deformation intensity,and fluid inertia,all of which are characterized by the Reynolds number(Re).Specifically,fluid inertia plays a dominant role in facilitating particle trapping.At a fixed Re,a particle with a smaller aspect ratio tends to migrate inward and become trapped,whereas one with a larger aspect ratio is more likely to escape.Structural flexibility,especially when enhanced by confinement near the wall,leads to elastic deformation that induces secondary vortices and a weak flipping motion.The deformation intensityαsignificantly influences the lateral migration of the slender particle after the initial release;a largerαcauses it to drift toward the channel centerline,increasing the probability of escape.These findings provide a theoretical foundation for optimizing the transport and capture of slender soft swimmers in complex flow environments.
