The proposed method combines control barrier functions and control Lyapunov functions with a nonlinear extended state observer to produce a robust and safe control strategy for dynamic systems subject to uncertainties and disturbances. This control strategy employs an optimization-based control, supported by the disturbance estimation from a nonlinear extended state observer. Using a quadratic programming algorithm, the controller computes an optimal, stable, and safe control action at each sampling instant. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations of a safety-critical interconnected adaptive cruise control system.展开更多

文摘In this letter,we comment on the article by Xuan Yuan et al,published in the recent issue of the World Journal of Gastroenterology.Mixed lineage kinase domainlike protein(MLKL)exhibits cell-type-specific functions in liver parenchymal and non-parenchymal cells,playing dual roles in the pathogenesis of liver diseases.In hepatocytes,MLKL primarily mediates necroptosis and inhibits autophagy,thereby exacerbating liver injury.Conversely,in non-parenchymal liver cells,MLKL modulates inflammatory responses and promotes fibrotic processes,thereby driving disease progression.Notably,MLKL also demonstrates protective functions under specific conditions.For instance,MLKL can inhibit intracellular bacterial replication,promote endosomal trafficking,and facilitate the generation and release of extracellular vesicles,potentially exerting hepatoprotective effects.Understanding these cell-type-specific mechanisms of MLKL action,including its dual roles in promoting injury and providing protection,is crucial for elucidating the complex pathogenesis of liver diseases and developing targeted therapeutic strategies.

文摘In current memristor-based neuromorphic computing research,several studies face the challenge of realizing only a single function at a time or having isolated functions.This limitation is particularly evident when simulating biological cognition,as the overall synergy between multiple cognitive functions is difficult to represent.In this work,a high-performance heterojunction memristor is presented at first.The memristor-based neural network and functional circuit are further implemented to realize and integrate multiple cognitive functions.Specifically,the proposed photoelectric memristor has the structure of Ag/ZnO-SnO_(2)/WO_(3-x)/ITO,it exhibits various synaptic behaviors under external modulations,which are characterized by good stability and repeatability.Based on this device,a neural network is built to realize the basic recognition function in biological cognition.The recognition results are translated into different labelled voltage signals and subsequently fed into a memristor-based functional circuit.By leveraging memory characteristics and tunable conductance of the memristor,and controlling the specific circuit functionalities,the input signals are processed to produce different outputs representing various cognitive functions.This methodology allows the realization and integration of recognition,memory,learning,association,relearning,and forgetting into one single system,thereby enabling a more comprehensive and authentic simulation of biological cognition.This work presents a novel memristor and a method for achieving and integrating multiple neuromorphic computing functions within a single system,providing a successful example for achieving complete biological function.

文摘In this paper,we obtain a normality criterion for families of meromorphic functions concerning‘wandering’shared functions,which generalizes and improves Montel’s criterion and the related results due to Schwick,Xu-Fang,Xu-Qiu,and Grahl-Nevo.Also,a normality relationship between two families is given.
