METHODS: Using a randomized controlled trial(RCT) design, 72 patients were assigned to the electroacupuncture(EA) group or the sham acupuncture(SA) group. A healthy control(HC) group was also included. Both groups were given routine rehabilitation treatment. Then, patients in the EA group were given additional electroacupuncture at Sishencong(EX_HN1). Meanwhile, patients in the SA group were given a flat-head needle sham/placebo treatment placed at the bilateral Jianyu (LI15) and Binao(LI14) line midpoints and the Jianyu(LI15) and Jianzhen(SI9) line midpoints. Before and after treatment, scales were collected and analyzed. In the second phase of the study, some subjects from the EA group were selected for functional magnetic resonance imaging(f MRI) data acquisition and comparative analysis with the HC group using a non-RCT design. RESULTS: The EA group performed better than the SA group on the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI), Montreal cognitive assessment basic(Mo CA_B), selfrating anxiety scale(SAS), and self-rating depression scale(SDS). Analysis of the f MRI showed that lowfrequency(2 Hz) electroacupuncture stimulation at Sishencong(EX_HN1) can restrain frontal sup medial right(SFGmed.R), precuneus right(PCUN.R), and posterior cingulate cortex right(PCC.R) and enhance angular left(ANG.L), parietal inf left(IPL.L) and occipital mid left(MOG.L). The functional connectivity(FC) of SFGmed.R was positively correlated with PSQI. Electroacupuncture stimulation at Sishencong(EX_HN1) can reduce the side efficiency of the whole brain connection with the Thalamus.L, Hippocampus.L, and Occipital.Mid.L. CONCLUSIONS: Low frequency(2 Hz) electroacupuncture stimulation at Sishencong(EX_HN1) can simultaneously improve sleep quality, negative emotions, and cognitive functions, the first two of which may be related to SFGmed.R restraint. Electroacupuncture can make some brain areas approach the physiological bias state, which is characterized by dominant hemispheric enhancement and non-dominant hemispheric weakening. The reduced whole brain connection side efficiency with some key nodes of the brain net may relate to sleep quality improvements in SSD patients.展开更多

A central challenge lies in establishing an effective regulatory framework despite limited resources available for combating rumor propagation. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a dynamic and adaptive regulatory system. First, based on observed regulatory patterns in real-world social networks, the rumor propagation process is divided into two distinct phases: regulation and intervention. Regulatory intensity is introduced as an indicator of user state transitions. Unlike traditional, non-adaptive regulatory models that allocate costs uniformly,the adaptive model facilitates flexible cost distribution through a manageable individual regulatory intensity. Moreover,by introducing adaptive strength, the two cost allocation models are integrated within a unified framework, leading to the development of a dynamic model for rumor suppression. Finally, simulation experiments on Barabási–Albert(BA)networks demonstrate that the adaptive regulatory mechanism significantly reduces both the scope and duration of rumor propagation. Furthermore, when traditional non-adaptive regulatory models show limited effectiveness, the adaptive model effectively curbs rumor propagation by optimizing cost allocation between regulatory and intervention processes, and by adjusting per-unit cost benefit differentials.展开更多

However, they are hard to be obtained via conventional methods for some reasons. This paper tries to a new route: the definitive numerical values of the supply energy and the demanded energy are not required, except for their relationship which is called energy state. A three-layer back propagation(BP) neural network was built up to act as an energy analysis unit to deduce the energy state. The neural network has three inputs: the reference displacement, the actual displacement of cylinder rod and the system flowrate supply. The output of the neural network is energy state. A Chebyshev type II filter was designed to calculate the cylinder speed for the estimation of system flowrate supply. The training and testing samples of neural network were collected by the system accurate simulation model. After off-line training, the neural network was tested by the testing data. And the testing result demonstrates that the designed neural network was successful. Then, the neural network acts as the energy analysis unit in real-time experiments of cylinder position control, where it works efficiently under square-wave and sine-wave reference displacement. The experimental results validate its feasibility and adaptability. Only a position sensor and some pressure sensors, which are cheap and have quick dynamic response, are necessary for the system control. And the neural network plays the role of identifying the energy state.展开更多

During the transform...The advent of the Next Generation Network (NGN), a new service-driven network, urges the telecom service operators to consider transforming from single-service providers to full-service providers. During the transformation, they should be concerned about the network user number and the network quality as well as the value added network information. The low threshold for service provision brings a new breed of service providers, which impacts upon the current regulation policy. To adapt to the development of the NGN, it is a necessity to improve the regulation policy in terms of service operators management, user management, Quality of Service (QoS) assurance, service monitoring, charging, and settlement. Meanwhile, regulatory authorities should establish a new body as quickly as possible to meet the trend of the NGN convergence. The new regulatory body would be responsible for regulating operators who will be awarded full-service licenses, and managing new service providers effectively to guarantee the user’s interests.展开更多

Therefore, people will pay more and more attention to the stable operation of the power system. Electricity is also indispensable to the mechanical work in industry, to all kinds of mechanical work in rural areas, and to all kinds of household appliances in daily life.

The inference of regulators might be the core factor for understanding actual regulatory conditions in gene regulatory networks, especially when strong regulators do work significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on combining neuro-fu^zy network models with biological knowledge to infer strong regulators and interrelated fuzzy rules. The hybrid neuro-fuzzy architecture can not only infer the fuzzy rules, which are suitable for describing the regulatory conditions in regulatory nctworks+ but also explain the meaning of nodes and weight value in the neural network. It can get useful rules automatically without lhctitious judgments. At the same time, it does not add recursive layers to the model, and the model can also strengthen the relationships among genes and reduce calculation. We use the proposed approach to reconstruct a partial gene regulatory network of yeast, The results show that this approach can work effectively.展开更多

文摘Objective:Epigenetic abnormalities have a critical role in breast cancer by regulating gene expression;however,the intricate interrelationships and key roles of approximately 400 epigenetic regulators in breast cancer remain elusive.It is important to decipher the comprehensive epigenetic regulatory network in breast cancer cells to identify master epigenetic regulators and potential therapeutic targets.Methods:We employed high-throughput sequencing-based high-throughput screening(HTS^(2))to effectively detect changes in the expression of 2,986 genes following the knockdown of 400 epigenetic regulators.Then,bioinformatics analysis tools were used for the resulting gene expression signatures to investigate the epigenetic regulations in breast cancer.Results:Utilizing these gene expression signatures,we classified the epigenetic regulators into five distinct clusters,each characterized by specific functions.We discovered functional similarities between BAZ2B and SETMAR,as well as CLOCK and CBX3.Moreover,we observed that CLOCK functions in a manner opposite to that of HDAC8 in downstream gene regulation.Notably,we constructed an epigenetic regulatory network based on the gene expression signatures,which revealed 8 distinct modules and identified 10 master epigenetic regulators in breast cancer.Conclusions:Our work deciphered the extensive regulation among hundreds of epigenetic regulators.The identification of 10 master epigenetic regulators offers promising therapeutic targets for breast cancer treatment.

文摘When large-scale distributed renewable energy power generation systems are connected to the power grid,the risk of grid voltage fluctuations and exceeding the limit increases greatly.Fortunately,the on-load tap changer(OLTC)can adjust the transformer winding tap to maintain the secondary side voltage within the normal range.However,the inevitable delay in switching transformer taps makes it difficult to respond quickly to voltage fluctuations.Moreover,switching the transformer taps frequently will decrease the service life of OLTC.In order to solve this critical issue,a cooperative voltage regulation strategy applied between the battery energy storage systems(BESSs)and OLTSs.is proposed By adjusting the charge and discharge power of BESSs,the OLTC can frequently switch the transformer taps to achieve rapid voltage regulation.The effectiveness of the proposed coordinated regulation strategy is verified in the IEEE 33 node distribution systems.The simulation results show that the proposed coordinated regulation strategy can stabilize the voltage of the distribution network within a normal range and reduce the frequency of tap switching,as such elongating the service life of the equipment.

文摘Although the significant roles of magnetic induction and electromagnetic radiation in the neural system have been widely studied,their influence on Parkinson’s disease(PD)has yet to be well explored.By virtue of the magnetic flux variable,this paper studies the transition of firing patterns induced by magnetic induction and the regulation effect of external magnetic radiation on the firing activities of the subthalamopallidal network in basal ganglia.We find:(i)The network reproduces five typical waveforms corresponding to the severity of symptoms:weak cluster,episodic,continuous cluster,episodic,and continuous wave.(ii)Magnetic induction is a double-edged sword for the treatment of PD.Although the increase of magnetic coefficient may lead the physiological firing activity to transfer to pathological firing activity,it also can regulate the pathological intensity firing activity with excessiveβ-band power transferring to the physiological firing pattern with weakβ-band power.(iii)External magnetic radiation could inhibit continuous tremulous firing andβ-band power of subthalamic nucleus(STN),which means the severity of symptoms weakened.Especially,the bi-parameter plane of the regulation region shows that a short pulse period of magnetic radiation and a medium level of pulse percentage can well regulate pathological oscillation.This work helps to understand the firing activity of the subthalamopallidal network under electromagnetic effect.It may also provide insights into the mechanisms behind the electromagnetic therapy of PD-related firing activity.
文摘The advent of the Next Generation Network (NGN), a new service-driven network, urges the telecom service operators to consider transforming from single-service providers to full-service providers. During the transformation, they should be concerned about the network user number and the network quality as well as the value added network information. The low threshold for service provision brings a new breed of service providers, which impacts upon the current regulation policy. To adapt to the development of the NGN, it is a necessity to improve the regulation policy in terms of service operators management, user management, Quality of Service (QoS) assurance, service monitoring, charging, and settlement. Meanwhile, regulatory authorities should establish a new body as quickly as possible to meet the trend of the NGN convergence. The new regulatory body would be responsible for regulating operators who will be awarded full-service licenses, and managing new service providers effectively to guarantee the user’s interests.

文摘In this paper,a dynamic flow-regulation algorithm-oriented network overload control is proposed.It can proportion-ally distribute the load between the high-degree nodes and the low-degree nodes.According to the theoretical analysis,the net-work transmission performance of the proposed algorithm is in inverse proportion to the usage rate of the high-degree nodes.Simulations show that the new algorithm is more flexible and can enhance the network capability in most circumstances compared with the shortest path routing algorithm.Moreover,the compari-son with the efficient routing algorism also reveals the prominent performance of the new algorithm.

文摘Multi-target tracking(MTT) is a research hotspot of wireless sensor networks at present.A self-organized dynamic cluster task allocation scheme is used to implement collaborative task allocation for MTT in WSN and a special cluster member(CM) node selection method is put forward in the scheme.An energy efficiency model was proposed under consideration of both energy consumption and remaining energy balance in the network.A tracking accuracy model based on area-sum principle was also presented through analyzing the localization accuracy of triangulation.Then,the two models mentioned above were combined to establish dynamic cluster member selection model for MTT where a comprehensive performance index function was designed to guide the CM node selection.This selection was fulfilled using genetic algorithm.Simulation results show that this method keeps both energy efficiency and tracking quality in optimal state,and also indicate the validity of genetic algorithm in implementing CM node selection.

文摘Multi-target tracking is facing the difficulties of modeling uncertain motion and observation noise.Traditional tracking algorithms are limited by specific models and priors that may mismatch a real-world scenario.In this paper,considering the model-free purpose,we present an online Multi-Target Intelligent Tracking(MTIT)algorithm based on a Deep Long-Short Term Memory(DLSTM)network for complex tracking requirements,named the MTIT-DLSTM algorithm.Firstly,to distinguish trajectories and concatenate the tracking task in a time sequence,we define a target tuple set that is the labeled Random Finite Set(RFS).Then,prediction and update blocks based on the DLSTM network are constructed to predict and estimate the state of targets,respectively.Further,the prediction block can learn the movement trend from the historical state sequence,while the update block can capture the noise characteristic from the historical measurement sequence.Finally,a data association scheme based on Hungarian algorithm and the heuristic track management strategy are employed to assign measurements to targets and adapt births and deaths.Experimental results manifest that,compared with the existing tracking algorithms,our proposed MTIT-DLSTM algorithm can improve effectively the accuracy and robustness in estimating the state of targets appearing at random positions,and be applied to linear and nonlinear multi-target tracking scenarios.

文摘The acute effect of acupuncture on Alzheimer's disease,i.e.,on brain activation during treatment,has been reported.However,the effect of long-term acupuncture on brain activation in Alzheimer's disease is unclear.Therefore,in this study,we performed long-term needling at Zusanli(ST36)or a sham point(1.5 mm lateral to ST36)in a rat Alzheimer's disease model,for 30 minutes,once per day,for 30 days.The rats underwent 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scanning.Positron emission tomography images were processed with SPM2.The brain areas activated after needling at ST36 included the left hippocampus,the left orbital cortex,the left infralimbic cortex,the left olfactory cortex,the left cerebellum and the left pons.In the sham-point group,the activated regions were similar to those in the ST36 group.However,the ST36 group showed greater activation in the cerebellum and pons than the sham-point group.These findings suggest that long-term acupuncture treatment has targeted regulatory effects on multiple brain regions in rats with Alzheimer's disease.

文摘Inferring gene regulatory networks from large-scale expression data is an important topic in both cellular systems and computational biology. The inference of regulators might be the core factor for understanding actual regulatory conditions in gene regulatory networks, especially when strong regulators do work significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on combining neuro-fu^zy network models with biological knowledge to infer strong regulators and interrelated fuzzy rules. The hybrid neuro-fuzzy architecture can not only infer the fuzzy rules, which are suitable for describing the regulatory conditions in regulatory nctworks+ but also explain the meaning of nodes and weight value in the neural network. It can get useful rules automatically without lhctitious judgments. At the same time, it does not add recursive layers to the model, and the model can also strengthen the relationships among genes and reduce calculation. We use the proposed approach to reconstruct a partial gene regulatory network of yeast, The results show that this approach can work effectively.

文摘The integration of distributed energy resources(DERs)has escalated the challenge of voltage magnitude regulation in distribution networks.Model-based approaches,which rely on complex sequential mathematical formulations,cannot meet the real-time demand.Deep reinforcement learning(DRL)offers an alternative by utilizing offline training with distribution network simulators and then executing online without computation.However,DRL algorithms fail to enforce voltage magnitude constraints during training and testing,potentially leading to serious operational violations.To tackle these challenges,we introduce a novel safe-guaranteed reinforcement learning algorithm,the Dist Flow safe reinforcement learning(DF-SRL),designed specifically for real-time voltage magnitude regulation in distribution networks.The DF-SRL algorithm incorporates a Dist Flow linearization to construct an expert-knowledge-based safety layer.Subsequently,the DF-SRL algorithm overlays this safety layer on top of the agent policy,recalibrating unsafe actions to safe domains through a quadratic programming formulation.Simulation results show the DF-SRL algorithm consistently ensures voltage magnitude constraints during training and real-time operation(test)phases,achieving faster convergence and higher performance,which differentiates it apart from(safe)DRL benchmark algorithms.
