Existing weapon-target assignment methods primarily focus on macro cluster constraints while neglecting individual strategy updates. This paper proposes a novel weapon-target assignment method for UAVs based on the multi-strategy threshold public goods game(PGG). By analyzing the concept mapping between weapon-target assignment for UAVs and multi-strategy threshold PGG, a weapon-target assignment model for UAVs based on the multi-strategy threshold PGG is established, which is adaptively complemented by the diverse cooperation-defection strategy library and the utility function based on the threshold mechanism. Additionally, a multi-chain Markov is formulated to quantitatively describe the stochastic evolutionary dynamics, whose evolutionary stable distribution is theoretically derived through the development of a strategy update rule based on preference-based aspiration dynamic. Numerical simulation results validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method, and the impacts of selection intensity, preference degree and threshold on the evolutionary stable distribution are analyzed. Comparative simulations show that the proposed method outperforms GWO, DE, and NSGA-II, achieving 17.18% higher expected utility than NSGA-II and reducing evolutionary stable times by 25% in large-scale scenario.展开更多

By analyzing the impact of grasping control parameters, base and target mass on the grasping process and combining the life experience, it is found that if the product of speed control parameter and dB adjustment parameter is close to but smaller than the minimum grasping speed, collision impact in the grasping process could be reduced greatly, and then an ideal grasping strategy is proposed. Simulation results indicate that during the same period, the strategy grasping is superior to the accelerating grasping, in that the amplitude of impact force is reduced to 20%, and the attitude control torque is reduced to 15%, and the impact on the robot is eliminated significantly. The results would have important academic value and engineering significance.展开更多

文摘In the process of spraying coating perovskite films,the"coffee ring"effect(CRE)leads to the problem of excessive organic ammonium salt accumulation in local areas that cannot be completely eliminated.We introduce an in-situ targeted defect-healing strategy by incorporating butylamine formate(BAFa)ionic liquid into the spray ink.Ionic liquids,due to their long carbon chain structure,tend to target flow towards the CRE region during the droplet evaporation process.The coordination between the lone pair electrons in the C=O group of BAFa and Pb^(2+)effectively reduces defects in perovskite and suppresses non-radiative recombination losses.Simultaneously,amine ligands,which are repelled to the film surface and grain boundaries,form a thin insulating monolayer in the CRE areas,forcing charge carriers to transport through areas of the perovskite with fewer defects.This approach enables the crystallization control and defect-heal over the Cs_(0.19)FA_(0.81)PbI_(3-x-y)Br_(x)Cl_(y)perovskite films.Consequently,the champion perovskite solar cell achieved a power conversion efficiency of 22.04%,while mini-modules with an effective area of 64.8 cm^(2)reached a peak power conversion efficiency of 18.35%,demonstrating the significant potential for commercializing large-area perovskite solar cells.
文摘In this article,we make a comment on the recent article by Sun et al,focusing on the advances of neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs)formation in common osteoarticular diseases.Neutrophils are the first line to eliminate invading pathogens including fungal and bacterial infections via releasing hydrolytic enzymes and reactive oxygen species.Besides,neutrophils will accumulate at the inflammatory site and release NETs,which are composed of histones,DNA and granular proteins.Traumatic heterotopic ossification(THO)was generally believed to develop through four stages:Inflammation,chondrogenesis,osteogenesis,and bone maturation.Thus,it can be seen that THO was related to inflammation and bone formation.Apart from immune and infectious diseases,recent studies have also shown that NETs play a significant role in the pathogenesis of THO.This article focuses on elaborating the role of NETs in the onset of THO,discussing the existing problems in the current research and outlining future directions.

文摘Parkinson's disease(PD)is a debilitating and progressive neurodegenerative disorder with complex pathology and multiple membrane barriers that hinder drug delivery,resulting in the absence of ideal therapeutic drugs with minimal side effects[1].Recently,natural medicine has garnered significant attention due to its remarkable efficacy and limited side effects.Icariin,a naturally occurring flavonoid,exhibits excellent potential as a therapeutic agent for neurodegenerative disease[2].However,its clinical application is limited by poor water solubility,low bioavailability,and high clearance rates.Here,an aqueous formulation of icariin/hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin(HP-β-CD)supramolecular inclusion complex was obtained to optimize icariin properties.Furthermore,icariin cyclodextrin supramolecular inclusion complex based thermosensitive(icariin gels)was innovated.At lower temperatures,it remained in a liquid phase with high fluidity.Upon reaching the gelation temperature,it underwent a transition to a gel phase with significantly reduced fluidity,which may be suitable for the design of an intranasal delivery system for PD treatment.The innovative approach capitalizes on the exceptional characteristics of HP-β-CD,which was utilized to synergize with nasal delivery for targeted brain delivery and with icariin for PD treatment[3,4].
文摘Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),especially the plant-based,represents complex chemical system containing various primary and secondary metabolites.These botanical metabolites are structurally diversified and exhibit significant difference in the acidity,alkalinity,molecular weight,polarity,and content,etc,which thus poses great challenges in assessing the quality of TCM[1].

文摘Psoriasis,a prevalent inherited skin condition,involves an inflammatory response as a key pathogenic mechanism.The Optimized Yinxieling Formula(OYF),rooted in traditional Chinese medicine,is extensively utilized in clinical settings to treat psoriasis.Although previous studies have demonstrated OYF’s significant anti-inflammatory effects in psoriasis,its potential molecular targets and active components remain unexplored.This study aimed to unveil the anti-psoriasis molecular targets and active components of OYF.Our findings indicated that OYF extract markedly reduced the production of several inflammatory mediators,including IL-23,nitric oxide,TNF-α,and IL-1β,in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells.We synthesized OYF extract-crosslinked beads to isolate pharmacological targets from RAW264.7 lysates using an affinity purification strategy,known as Target Fishing.The enriched target proteins were subsequently identified via LC-MS/MS,followed by bioinformatics analysis to map the psoriasis-associated pathway-gene network.We identified a total of 76 potential target proteins,which were highly associated with mRNA transcription mechanisms.In particular,pathway-gene network analysis revealed that the IL-23 inflammatory pathway was involved in the anti-psoriasis effect of OYF extract.We further utilized a target protein-based affinity capture strategy,combined with LC-MS and SPR analysis,to globally screen OYF’s active components,focusing on the mRNA transcription regulator,fused in sarcoma(FUS).This process led to the identification of umbelliferone,vanillic acid,protocatechuic acid,gentisic acid,and echinacoside as key compounds targeting FUS to inhibit IL-23 expression.Additionally,we formulated a compound cocktail(CpdC),which significantly reduced psoriasis area and severity index(PASI)scores and the expressions of IL-23 and Ki67 in an imiquimod(IMQ)-induced psoriasis mouse model.Collectively,our study elucidates the primary molecular targets and active components of OYF,offering novel insights for psoriasis treatment.

文摘When the space robot captures a floating target, contact impact occurs inevitably and frequently between the manipulator hand and the target, which seriously impacts the position and attitude of the robot and grasping security. ＂Dynamic grasping area＂ is introduced to describe the collision process of manipulator grasping target, and grasping area control equation is established. By analyzing the impact of grasping control parameters, base and target mass on the grasping process and combining the life experience, it is found that if the product of speed control parameter and dB adjustment parameter is close to but smaller than the minimum grasping speed, collision impact in the grasping process could be reduced greatly, and then an ideal grasping strategy is proposed. Simulation results indicate that during the same period, the strategy grasping is superior to the accelerating grasping, in that the amplitude of impact force is reduced to 20%, and the attitude control torque is reduced to 15%, and the impact on the robot is eliminated significantly. The results would have important academic value and engineering significance.

文摘Poverty and income inequality are problems faced by many countries including China.Since the implementation of Targeted Poverty Alleviation(TPA),absolute poverty has been eradicated,meanwhile,Chinese rural residents' income and inequality have experienced unprecedented new dynamics,but still,very few studies have focused on them.Hence,we attempt to examine the new trends in Chinese farmers' income inequality and to understand its causes during this period.We observe that China's urban-rural income ratio has been shrinking and the urban-rural inequality has been decreasing from 2014 to 2021.The reduction in the Theil index indicates a decrease in the regional inequality of farmers' income as well,and the decline in inter-regional inequality among eight economic zones contributes about 80% to increased equality.These new trends are caused by the fact that,with the TPA,the incomes of rural residents especially that in destitute areas,grew faster than that of urban residents and farmers in prosperous areas.The higher share of non-agricultural industry and agricultural mechanization level have significant positive impact on regional equality of farmers' income,while urban-rural dual structure has significant negative inhibitory effects.The lowest farmers' income and the highest inequality in the Northwest,and the slowest growth in the Northeast deserve more attention in rural Revitalization.From these findings,we propose four policy implications that would be applied to improve Chinese farmers' income equality,govern relative poverty,and achieve common prosperity in the post-poverty era.

文摘BACKGROUND Recent advancements in nanomedicine have highlighted the potential of exosome(Ex)-based therapies,utilizing naturally derived nanoparticles,as a novel approach to targeted cancer treatment.AIM To explore the targetability and anticancer effectiveness of small interfering peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1 RNA(siPIN1)-loaded soluble a proliferation-inducing ligand(sAPRIL)-targeted Exs(designated as tEx[p])in the treatment of colon cancer models.METHODS tEx was generated by harvesting conditioned media from adipose-derived stem cells that had undergone transformation using pDisplay vectors encoding sAPRIL-binding peptide sequences.Subsequently,tEx[p]were created by incorporating PIN1 siRNA into the tEx using the Exofect kit.The therapeutic efficacy of these Exs was evaluated using both in vitro and in vivo models of colon cancer.RESULTS The tEx[p]group exhibited superior anticancer effects in comparison to other groups,including tEx,Ex[p],and Ex,demonstrated by the smallest tumor size,the slowest tumor growth rate,and the lightest weight of the excised tumors observed in the tEx[p]group(P<0.05).Moreover,analyses of the excised tumor tissues,using western blot analysis and immunohistochemical staining,revealed that tEx[p]treatment resulted in the highest increase in Ecadherin expression and the most significant reduction in the mesenchymal markers Vimentin and Snail(P<0.05),suggesting a more effective inhibition of epithelial-mesenchymal transition tEx[p],likely due to the enhanced delivery of siPIN1.CONCLUSION The use of bioengineered Exs targeting sAPRIL and containing siPIN1 demonstrated superior efficacy in inhibiting tumor growth and epithelial-mesenchymal transition,highlighting their potential as a therapeutic strategy for colon cancer.

文摘Objective:The objective of this work is to design and fabricate a novel multifunctional nanocarrier combining thrombus-targeted imaging and ultrasound-mediated drug delivery for the theranostics of thrombotic diseases.Impact Statement:This study develops a new technology that can accurately visualize the thrombus and deliver drugs with controllable properties to diagnose and treat thrombotic diseases.Introduction:Thrombotic diseases are a serious threat to human life and health.The diagnosis and treatment of thrombotic diseases have always been a challenge.In recent years,nanomedicine has brought new ideas and new methods for the theranostics of thrombotic diseases.However,there are also many problems need to be solved,such as biosafety and stability of nanocarriers,early diagnosis,and timely treatment of thrombotic diseases,difficulty in clinical translation.Methods:The S1P@CD-PLGA-rtPA nanobubbles(NBs)were prepared by integrating sulfur hexafluoride(SF6)-loaded poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA)NBs,cyclodextrin(CD),sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P),and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator(rtPA).Results:S1P@CD-PLGA-rtPA NBs had rapid and excellent thrombosis targeting imaging performance based on the specific interaction of S1P-S1PR1(sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1).Furthermore,S1P@CD-PLGA-rtPA NBs that specifically targeting to the thrombosis regions could also respond to external ultrasound to achieve accurate and efficient delivery of rtPA to enhance the thrombolysis effectiveness and efficiency.Conclusion:This study proposes a new idea and strategy of targeting thrombus in rats via the specific interaction of S1P-S1PR1.On this basis,the acoustic response properties of bubble carriers could be fully utilized by combining thrombus-specific targeted imaging and ultrasound-mediated drug delivery for effective thrombolysis,which is expected to be applied in targeted diagnosis and treatment of thrombotic diseases in the future.
文摘Ferroptosis is a newly discovered form of cell death that is influenced by iron levels and is triggered by cellular metabolism and excessive lipid peroxidation.Epigenetic regulation plays a crucial role in the development and progression of diseases,making it essential to understand these mechanisms in order to identify potential targets for drug development and clinical treatment.The intersection of ferroptosis and epigenetics has opened up new avenues for research in drug development,offering innovative strategies for combating diseases.Recent studies have shown that epigenetic modifications can impact pathways related to ferroptosis,potentially leading to organ dysfunction.Despite the increasing focus on this relationship,the role of epigenetic regulation in drug development remains largely unexplored.This article explores current research on the interplay between epigenetic regulation and ferroptosis,delving into their regulatory mechanisms and discussing the effects of existing epigenetic modification regula-tors on diseases.Additionally,we highlight ongoing research on epigenetic factors involved in targeting ferroptosis in cancer,providing new insights for the development of cancer treatments.

文摘Cooperative interception of the target with strong maneuverability by multiple missiles with weak maneuverability in the three-dimensional nonlinear model is studied.Firstly,the three-dimensional nonlinear model of cooperative guidance is established.The three-dimensional reachable region is represented composed of lateral acceleration and longitudinal acceleration in the two-dimensional coordinate system.Secondly,the problem of the multiple missile’s reachable coverage area is transformed into the problem of cooperative coverage.A cooperative coverage strategy is proposed and an algorithm for quickly calculating the number of required missiles is designed.Then,the guidance law based on the cooperative coverage strategy is proposed,and it is proved that cooperative interception of the target can be achieved under the acceleration limit.Moreover,the relations among the number of missiles,the initial array position of terminal guidance and the coverage area of the target’s large maneuver are analyzed.The dynamic adjustment strategy of guidance parameters is proposed to reduce the guidance error.Finally,simulation results show that multiple missiles with low maneuverability can achieve effective interception of target with strong maneuverability through the proposed cooperative strategy and cooperative guidance method.

文摘The rotational motion of a tumbling target brings great challenges to space robot on successfully capturing the tumbling target.Therefore,it is necessary to reduce the target's rotation to a rate at which capture can be accomplished by the space robot.In this paper,a detumbling strategy based on friction control of dual-arm space robot for capturing tumbling target is proposed.This strategy can reduce the target's rotational velocity while maintaining base attitude stability through the establishment of the rotation attenuation controller and base attitude adjustment controller.The rotation attenuation controller adopts the multi-space hybrid impedance control method to control the friction precisely.The base attitude adjustment controller applies the dual-arm extended Jacobian matrix to stabilize the base attitude.The main contributions of this paper are as follows:(1)The compliant control method is adopted to achieve a precise friction control,which can reduce the target angular velocity steadily;(2)The dual-arm extended Jacobian matrix is applied to stabilize the base attitude without affecting the target capture task;(3)The detumbling strategy of dualarm space robot is designed considering base attitude stabilization,realizing coordinated planning of the base attitude and the arms.The strategy is verified by a dual-arm space robot with two 7-DOF(degrees of freedom)arms.Simulation results show that,target with a rotation velocity of 20(°)/s can be effectively controlled to stop within 30 s,and the final deflection of the base attitude is less than 0.15°without affecting the target capture task,verifying the correctness and effectiveness of the strategy.Except to the tumbling target capture task,the control strategy can also be applied to other typical on-orbit operation tasks such as space debris removal and spacecraft maintenance.

文摘As a core component of the network,web applications have become one of the preferred targets for attackers because the static configuration of web applications simplifies the exploitation of vulnerabilities by attackers.Although the moving target defense(MTD)has been proposed to increase the attack difficulty for the attackers,there is no solo approach can cope with different attacks;in addition,it is impossible to implement all these approaches simultaneously due to the resource limitation.Thus,the selection of an optimal defense strategy based on MTD has become the focus of research.In general,the confrontation of two players in the security domain is viewed as a stochastic game,and the reward matrices are known to both players.However,in a real security confrontation,this scenario represents an incomplete information game.Each player can only observe the actions performed by the opponent,and the observed actions are not completely accurate.To accurately describe the attacker’s reward function to reach the Nash equilibrium,this work simulated and updated the strategy selection distribution of the attacker by observing and investigating the strategy selection history of the attacker.Next,the possible rewards of the attacker in each confrontation via the observation matrix were corrected.On this basis,the Nash-Q learning algorithm with reward quantification was proposed to select the optimal strategy.Moreover,the performances of the Minimax-Q learning algorithm and Naive-Q learning algorithm were compared and analyzed in the MTD environment.Finally,the experimental results showed that the strategy selection algorithm can enable defenders to select a more reasonable defensive strategy and achieve the maximum possible reward.
文摘The methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)’s diagnosis and treatment have undergone several changes.It is crucial to build a proper model which is capable to modernize TCM into a both standardized and individualized treatment.Tong xiao-lin proposed the state-target strategy to build a bridge for the integration of Chinese and Western medicine.It is a model based on modern medical disease concepts and using the method of TCM to balance the pathological states and adopting the achievements of pharmacology of Chinese medicine to focus on the disease targets,symptom targets,and biochemical indicator targets.The reconstruction of TCM diagnosis and treatment system for diabetes is a good example to demonstrate this theory.It could improve the clinical efficacy,support the scientific research,and reinforce the standardization of TCM.

文摘Qi-Yu-San-Long decoction(QYSLD)is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been clinically used in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC)for more than 20 years.However,to date,metabolicrelated studies on QYSLD have not been performed.In this study,a post-targeted screening strategy based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight full information tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-QTOF-MS^(E))was developed to identify QYSLD-related xenobiotics in rat urine.The chemical compound database of QYSLD constituents was established from previous research,and metabolites related to these compounds were predicted in combination with their possible metabolic pathways.The metabolites were identified by extracted ion chromatograms using predicted m/z values as well as retention time,excimer ions,and fragmentation behavior.Overall,85 QYSLD-related xenobiotics(20 prototype compounds and 65 metabolites)were characterized from rat urine.The main metabolic reactions and elimination features of QYSLD included oxidation,reduction,decarboxylation,hydrolysis,demethylation,glucuronidation,sulfation,methylation,deglycosylation,acetylation,and associated combination reactions.Of the identified molecules,14 prototype compounds and 58 metabolites were slowly eliminated,thus accumulating in vivo over an extended period,while five prototypes and two metabolites were present in vivo for a short duration.Furthermore,one prototype and five metabolites underwent the process of“appearing-disappearing-reappearing”in vivo.Overall,the metabolic profile and characteristics of QYSLD in rat urine were determined,which is useful in elucidating the active components of the decoction in vivo,thus providing the basis for studying its mechanism of action.
