Sometimes prefixes become derivational to create new words, which differ in part-of-speech and meaning from the words with which these are attached. Thus, prefixation acquires an identity of a morphodynamic process in the language through which new words take birth, while old words change their forms, functions, and meanings to increase lexical stock of Bengali. With reference to a large lexical database of prefixed words obtained from the Bengali corpus (Dash, 2009), this paper tries to explore the nature and type of morphosemantic processes that occur at the time of prefixation to highlight the patterns of change in forms and meaning of prefixed words. Also, it aims at laying a theoretical foundation about the nature of lexical generativity of prefixes used in formation of words. The application relevance of this study may be attested in descriptive linguistics, applied linguistics, and language technology, since analysis of forms and functions of prefixes supplies necessary information for developing text materials for Bengali language teaching, compiling dictionaries, designing systems for machine learning, and developing databases for machine translation. Indirectly, it ventilates into the nature of complexities embedded in linguistic generativity of the Bengali speakers展开更多

文摘Heat dissipation performance is critical to the design of high-end equipment,such as integrated chips and high-precision machine tools.Owing to the advantages of artificial intelligence in solving complex tasks involving a large number of variables,researchers have exploited deep learning to expedite the optimization of material properties,such as the heat dissipation of solid isotropic materials with penalization(SIMP).However,because the approach is limited by discrete datasets and labeled training forms,ensuring the continuous adaptation of the condition domain and maintaining the stability of the design structure remain major challenges in the current intelligent design methodology for thermally conductive structures.In this study,we propose an innovative intelligent design fram-ework integrating Conditional Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks(CDCGAN)with SIMP,capable of creating topology structures that meet prescribed thermal conduction performance.This proposed design strategy significantly reduces the computational time required to solve symmetric and random heat sink problems compared with existing design approaches and is approximately 98%faster than standard SIMP methods and 55.5%faster than conventional deep-learning-based methods.In addition,we benchmarked the design performance of the proposed framework against theoretical structural designs via experimental measurements.We observed a 50.1%reduction in the average temperature and a 28.2%reduction in the highest temperature in our designed topology compared with those theoretical structure designs.

文摘Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)mutations are influenced by random and uncontrollable factors,and the risk of the next widespread epidemic remains.Dual-target drugs that synergistically act on two targets exhibit strong therapeutic effects and advantages against mutations.In this study,a novel computational workflow was developed to design dual-target SARS-CoV-2 candidate inhibitors with the Envelope protein and Main protease selected as the two target proteins.The drug-like molecules of our self-constructed 3D scaffold database were used as high-throughput molecular docking probes for feature extraction of two target protein pockets.A multi-layer perceptron(MLP)was employed to embed the binding affinities into a latent space as conditional vectors to control conditional distribution.Utilizing a conditional generative neural network,cG-SchNet,with 3D Euclidean group(E3)symmetries,the conditional probability distributions of molecular 3D structures were acquired and a set of novel SARS-CoV-2 dual-target candidate inhibitors were generated.The 1D probability,2D joint probability,and 2D cumulative probability distribution results indicate that the generated sets are significantly enhanced compared to the training set in the high binding affinity area.Among the 201 generated molecules,42 molecules exhibited a sum binding affinity exceeding 17.0 kcal/mol while 9 of them having a sum binding affinity exceeding 19.0 kcal/mol,demonstrating structure diversity along with strong dual-target affinities,good absorption,distribution,metabolism,excretion,and toxicity(ADMET)properties,and ease of synthesis.Dual-target drugs are rare and difficult to find,and our“high-throughput docking-multi-conditional generation”workflow offers a wide range of options for designing or optimizing potent dual-target SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors.

文摘Over the past decades,the expansion of natu-ral secondary forests has played a crucial role in offsetting the loss of primary forests and combating climate change.Despite this,there is a gap in our understanding of how tree species’growth and mortality patterns vary with eleva-tion in these secondary forests.In this study,we analyzed data from two censuses(spanning a five-year interval)conducted in both evergreen broadleaved forests(EBF)and temperate coniferous forests(TCF),which have been recovering for half a century,across elevation gradients in a subtropical mountain region,Mount Wuyi,China.The results indicated that the relative growth rate(RGR)of EBF(0.028±0.001 cm·cm^(-1)·a^(-1))and the mortality rate(MR)(20.03%±1.70%)were 27.3%and 16.4%higher,respec-tively,than those of TCF.Interestingly,the trade-off between RGR and MR in EBF weakened as elevation increased,a trend not observed in TCF.Conversely,TCF consistently showed a stronger trade-off between RGR and MR compared to EBF.Generalized linear mixed models revealed that ele-vation influences RGR both directly and indirectly through its interactions with slope,crown competition index(CCI),and tree canopy height(CH).However,tree mortality did not show a significant correlation with elevation.Additionally,DBH significantly influenced both tree growth and mortal-ity,whereas and CH and CCI had opposite effects on tree growth between EBF and TCF.Our study underscores the importance of elevation in shaping the population dynamics and the biomass carbon sink balance of mountain forests.These insights enhance our understanding of tree species’life strategies,enabling more accurate predictions of forest dynamics and their response to environmental changes.

文摘Network architectures assisted by Generative Artificial Intelligence(GAI)are envisioned as foundational elements of sixth-generation(6G)communication system.To deliver ubiquitous intelligent services and meet diverse service requirements,6G network architecture should offer personalized services to various mobile devices.Federated learning(FL)with personalized local training,as a privacypreserving machine learning(ML)approach,can be applied to address these challenges.In this paper,we propose a meta-learning-based personalized FL(PFL)method that improves both communication and computation efficiency by utilizing over-the-air computations.Its“pretraining-and-fine-tuning”principle makes it particularly suitable for enabling edge nodes to access personalized GAI services while preserving local privacy.Experiment results demonstrate the outperformance and efficacy of the proposed algorithm,and notably indicate enhanced communication efficiency without compromising accuracy.

文摘In the scenario of a steam generator tube rupture accident in a lead-cooled fast reactor,secondary circuit subcooled water under high pressure is injected into an ordinary-pressure primary vessel,where a molten lead-based alloy(typically pure lead or lead-bismuth eutectic(LBE))is used as the coolant.To clarify the pressure build-up characteristics under water-jet injection,this study conducted several experiments by injecting pressurized water into a molten LBE pool at Sun Yat-sen University.To obtain a further understanding,several new experimental parameters were adopted,including the melt temperature,water subcooling,injection pressure,injection duration,and nozzle diameter.Through detailed analyses,it was found that the pressure and temperature during the water-melt interaction exhibited a consistent variation trend with our previous water-droplet injection mode LBE experiment.Similarly,the existence of a steam explosion was confirmed,which typically results in a much stronger pressure build-up.For the non-explosion cases,increasing the injection pressure,melt-pool temperature,nozzle diameter,and water subcooling promoted pressure build-up in the melt pool.However,a limited enhancement effect was observed when increasing the injection duration,which may be owing to the continually rising pressure in the interaction vessel or the isolation effect of the generated steam cavity.Regardless of whether a steam explosion occurred,the calculated mechanical and kinetic energy conversion efficiencies of the melt were relatively small(not exceeding 4.1%and 0.7%,respectively).Moreover,the range of the conversion efficiency was similar to that of previous water-droplet experiments,although the upper limit of the jet mode was slightly lower.

文摘As oil and gas exploration moves into deeper waters,marine risers are subjected to increasingly complex service conditions,including vessel motions,ocean currents,seabed-soil interactions,and internal flow effects.This work establishes a dynamic behavior model of steel catenary risers(SCRs)with varying curvatures subjected to internal flow and external currents and considers the effects of pipe-soil interactions on the curvature profile.The governing equation is solved via the generalized integral transform technique(GITT),which yields a semi-analytical solution of a high-order nonlinear partial differential equation.Parametric studies are then performed to analyze the effects of varying curvature on the vibration frequency and amplitude of SCRs.The vibration frequency and amplitude increase with the touchdown angle and hang-off angle,although the effect of the hang-off angle is negligible.Additionally,as the curvature increases along the centerline axis,the position of the maximum amplitude of the SCR moves upward.

文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)is integral to modern infrastructure,enabling connectivity among a wide range of devices from home automation to industrial control systems.With the exponential increase in data generated by these interconnected devices,robust anomaly detection mechanisms are essential.Anomaly detection in this dynamic environment necessitates methods that can accurately distinguish between normal and anomalous behavior by learning intricate patterns.This paper presents a novel approach utilizing generative adversarial networks(GANs)for anomaly detection in IoT systems.However,optimizing GANs involves tuning hyper-parameters such as learning rate,batch size,and optimization algorithms,which can be challenging due to the non-convex nature of GAN loss functions.To address this,we propose a five-dimensional Gray wolf optimizer(5DGWO)to optimize GAN hyper-parameters.The 5DGWO introduces two new types of wolves:gamma(γ)for improved exploitation and convergence,and theta(θ)for enhanced exploration and escaping local minima.The proposed system framework comprises four key stages:1)preprocessing,2)generative model training,3)autoencoder(AE)training,and 4)predictive model training.The generative models are utilized to assist the AE training,and the final predictive models(including convolutional neural network(CNN),deep belief network(DBN),recurrent neural network(RNN),random forest(RF),and extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost))are trained using the generated data and AE-encoded features.We evaluated the system on three benchmark datasets:NSL-KDD,UNSW-NB15,and IoT-23.Experiments conducted on diverse IoT datasets show that our method outperforms existing anomaly detection strategies and significantly reduces false positives.The 5DGWO-GAN-CNNAE exhibits superior performance in various metrics,including accuracy,recall,precision,root mean square error(RMSE),and convergence trend.The proposed 5DGWO-GAN-CNNAE achieved the lowest RMSE values across the NSL-KDD,UNSW-NB15,and IoT-23 datasets,with values of 0.24,1.10,and 0.09,respectively.Additionally,it attained the highest accuracy,ranging from 94%to 100%.These results suggest a promising direction for future IoT security frameworks,offering a scalable and efficient solution to safeguard against evolving cyber threats.
