The ISERA f...This paper introduces the Integrated Security Embedded Resilience Architecture (ISERA) as an advanced resilience mechanism for Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Operational Technology (OT) environments. The ISERA framework integrates security by design principles, micro-segmentation, and Island Mode Operation (IMO) to enhance cyber resilience and ensure continuous, secure operations. The methodology deploys a Forward-Thinking Architecture Strategy (FTAS) algorithm, which utilises an industrial Intrusion Detection System (IDS) implemented with Python’s Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) library. The FTAS algorithm successfully identified and responded to cyber-attacks, ensuring minimal system disruption. ISERA has been validated through comprehensive testing scenarios simulating Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and malware intrusions, at both the IT and OT layers where it successfully mitigates the impact of malicious activity. Results demonstrate ISERA’s efficacy in real-time threat detection, containment, and incident response, thus ensuring the integrity and reliability of critical infrastructure systems. ISERA’s decentralised approach contributes to global net zero goals by optimising resource use and minimising environmental impact. By adopting a decentralised control architecture and leveraging virtualisation, ISERA significantly enhances the cyber resilience and sustainability of critical infrastructure systems. This approach not only strengthens defences against evolving cyber threats but also optimises resource allocation, reducing the system’s carbon footprint. As a result, ISERA ensures the uninterrupted operation of essential services while contributing to broader net zero goals.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Acute appendicitis(AAp)is a prevalent medical condition characterized by inflammation of the appendix that frequently necessitates urgent surgical procedures.Approximately two-thirds of patients with AAp exhibit characteristic signs and symptoms;hence,negative AAp and complicated AAp are the primary concerns in research on AAp.In other terms,further investigations and algorithms are required for at least one third of patients to predict the clinical condition and distinguish them from uncomplicated patients with AAp.AIM To use a Stochastic Gradient Boosting(SGB)-based machine learning(ML)algorithm to tell the difference between AAp patients who are complicated and those who are not,and to find some important biomarkers for both types of AAp by using modeling to get variable importance values.METHODS This study analyzed an open access data set containing 140 people,including 41 healthy controls,65 individuals with uncomplicated AAp,and 34 individuals with complicated AAp.We analyzed some demographic data(age,sex)of the patients and the following biochemical blood parameters:White blood cell(WBC)count,neutrophils,lymphocytes,monocytes,platelet count,neutrophil-tolymphocyte ratio,lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio,mean platelet volume,neutrophil-to-immature granulocyte ratio,ferritin,total bilirubin,immature granulocyte count,immature granulocyte percent,and neutrophil-to-immature granulocyte ratio.We tested the SGB model using n-fold cross-validation.It was implemented with an 80-20 training-test split.We used variable importance values to identify the variables that were most effective on the target.RESULTS The SGB model demonstrated excellent performance in distinguishing AAp from control patients with an accuracy of 96.3%,a micro aera under the curve(AUC)of 94.7%,a sensitivity of 94.7%,and a specificity of 100%.In distinguishing complicated AAp patients from uncomplicated ones,the model achieved an accuracy of 78.9%,a micro AUC of 79%,a sensitivity of 83.3%,and a specificity of 76.9%.The most useful biomarkers for confirming the AA diagnosis were WBC(100%),neutrophils(95.14%),and the lymphocyte-monocyte ratio(76.05%).On the other hand,the most useful biomarkers for accurate diagnosis of complicated AAp were total bilirubin(100%),WBC(96.90%),and the neutrophil-immature granulocytes ratio(64.05%).CONCLUSION The SGB model achieved high accuracy rates in identifying AAp patients while it showed moderate performance in distinguishing complicated AAp patients from uncomplicated AAp patients.Although the model's accuracy in the classification of complicated AAp is moderate,the high variable importance obtained is clinically significant.We need further prospective validation studies,but the integration of such ML algorithms into clinical practice may improve diagnostic processes.

文摘Phenotypic prediction is a promising strategy for accelerating plant breeding.Data from multiple sources(called multi-view data)can provide complementary information to characterize a biological object from various aspects.By integrating multi-view information into phenotypic prediction,a multi-view best linear unbiased prediction(MVBLUP)method is proposed in this paper.To measure the importance of multiple data views,the differential evolution algorithm with an early stopping mechanism is used,by which we obtain a multi-view kinship matrix and then incorporate it into the BLUP model for phenotypic prediction.To further illustrate the characteristics of MVBLUP,we perform the empirical experiments on four multi-view datasets in different crops.Compared to the single-view method,the prediction accuracy of the MVBLUP method has improved by 0.038–0.201 on average.The results demonstrate that the MVBLUP is an effective integrative prediction method for multi-view data.
文摘The growing need for sustainable energy solutions,driven by rising energy shortages,environmental concerns,and the depletion of conventional energy sources,has led to a significant focus on renewable energy.Solar energy,among the various renewable sources,is particularly appealing due to its abundant availability.However,the efficiency of commercial solar photovoltaic(PV)modules is hindered by several factors,notably their conversion efficiency,which averages around 19%.This efficiency can further decline to 10%–16%due to temperature increases during peak sunlight hours.This study investigates the cooling of PV modules by applying water to their front surface through Computational fluid dynamics(CFD).The study aimed to determine the optimal conditions for cooling the PV module by analyzing the interplay between water film thickness,Reynolds number,and their effects on temperature reduction and heat transfer.The CFD analysis revealed that the most effective cooling condition occurred with a 5 mm thick water film and a Reynolds number of 10.These specific parameters were found to maximize the heat transfer and temperature reduction efficiency.This finding is crucial for the development of practical and efficient cooling systems for PV modules,potentially leading to improved performance and longevity of solar panels.Alternative cooling fluids or advanced cooling techniques that might offer even better efficiency or practical benefits.

文摘This paper introduces the Integrated Security Embedded Resilience Architecture (ISERA) as an advanced resilience mechanism for Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Operational Technology (OT) environments. The ISERA framework integrates security by design principles, micro-segmentation, and Island Mode Operation (IMO) to enhance cyber resilience and ensure continuous, secure operations. The methodology deploys a Forward-Thinking Architecture Strategy (FTAS) algorithm, which utilises an industrial Intrusion Detection System (IDS) implemented with Python’s Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) library. The FTAS algorithm successfully identified and responded to cyber-attacks, ensuring minimal system disruption. ISERA has been validated through comprehensive testing scenarios simulating Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and malware intrusions, at both the IT and OT layers where it successfully mitigates the impact of malicious activity. Results demonstrate ISERA’s efficacy in real-time threat detection, containment, and incident response, thus ensuring the integrity and reliability of critical infrastructure systems. ISERA’s decentralised approach contributes to global net zero goals by optimising resource use and minimising environmental impact. By adopting a decentralised control architecture and leveraging virtualisation, ISERA significantly enhances the cyber resilience and sustainability of critical infrastructure systems. This approach not only strengthens defences against evolving cyber threats but also optimises resource allocation, reducing the system’s carbon footprint. As a result, ISERA ensures the uninterrupted operation of essential services while contributing to broader net zero goals.

文摘Lead chalcohalides(PbYX,X=Cl,Br,I;Y=S,Se)is an extension of the classic Pb chalcogenides(PbY).Constructing the heterogeneous integration with PbYX and PbY material systems makes it possible to achieve significantly improved optoelectronic performance.In this work,we studied the effect of introducing halogen precursors on the structure of classical PbS nanocrystals(NCs)during the synthesis process and realized the preparation of PbS/Pb_(3)S_(2)X_(2) core/shell structure for the first time.The core/shell structure can effectively improve their optical properties.Furthermore,our approach enables the synthesis of Pb_(3)S_(2)Br_(2) that had not yet been reported.Our results not only provide valuable insights into the heterogeneous integration of PbYX and PbY materials to elevate material properties but also provide an effective method for further expanding the preparation of PbYX material systems.
文摘The accuracy of thermal analysis measurements is critical to analyze material properties correctly,making the improvement of measurement precision and proper uncertainty analysis of test results absolutely essential.As a primary thermal analysis instrument,the simultaneous thermal analyzer(STA)has unique advantages,which combines the functionalities of thermogravimetric(TG)analyzersand differential scanning calorimeters(DSC).However,the absence of standard quality control procedures has resulted in poor measurement reproducibility,low accuracy,and inadequate traceability of analytical results.This study utilized a multi-point temperature calibration method based on national certified reference materials to reduce instrument temperature indication errors.On this basis,we innovatively established a comprehensive quality control system encompassing laboratory environmental control,standard method selection,instrument performance verification,reference material traceability,and uncertainty analysis,thereby achieving standardized operational procedures for thermal analysis measurement.Taking the"determination of initial melting temperature of unknown substances"as a representative case study,a component resolution model for thermal analysis test uncertainty was developed.Through systematic analysis of both the reference material-introduced component and measurement repeatability component,complete traceability of test results was achieved.This approach ensures data validity and enhances the accuracy of test results.This provides crucial technical support and practical reference for the standardization of thermal analysis measurement procedure and assessment of result reliability.

文摘Corticotomy is a clinical procedure to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement characterized by the regional acceleratory phenomenon(RAP).Despite its therapeutic effects,the surgical risk and unclear mechanism hamper the clinical application.Numerous evidences support macrophages as the key immune cells during bone remodeling.Our study discovered that the monocyte-derived macrophages primarily exhibited a pro-inflammatory phenotype that dominated bone remodeling in corticotomy by CX3CR1CreERT2;R26GFP lineage tracing system.Fluorescence staining,flow cytometry analysis,and western blot determined the significantly enhanced expression of binding immunoglobulin protein(BiP)and emphasized the activation of sensor activating transcription factor 6(ATF6)in macrophages.Then,we verified that macrophage specific ATF6 deletion(ATF6f/f;CX3CR1CreERT2 mice)decreased the proportion of pro-inflammatory macrophages and therefore blocked the acceleration effect of corticotomy.In contrast,macrophage ATF6 overexpression exaggerated the acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement.In vitro experiments also proved that higher proportion of pro-inflammatory macrophages was positively correlated with higher expression of ATF6.At the mechanism level,RNA-seq and CUT&Tag analysis demonstrated that ATF6 modulated the macrophage-orchestrated inflammation through interacting with Tnfαpromotor and augmenting its transcription.Additionally,molecular docking simulation and dual-luciferase reporter system indicated the possible binding sites outside of the traditional endoplasmic reticulum-stress response element(ERSE).Taken together,ATF6 may aggravate orthodontic bone remodeling by promoting Tnfαtranscription in macrophages,suggesting that ATF6 may represent a promising therapeutic target for non-invasive accelerated orthodontics.

文摘Image style transfer is a research hotspot in the field of computer vision.For this job,many approaches have been put forth.These techniques do,however,still have some drawbacks,such as high computing complexity and content distortion caused by inadequate stylization.To address these problems,PhotoGAN,a new Generative AdversarialNetwork(GAN)model is proposed in this paper.A deeper feature extraction network has been designed to capture global information and local details better.Introducingmulti-scale attention modules helps the generator focus on important feature areas at different scales,further enhancing the effectiveness of feature extraction.Using a semantic discriminator helps the generator learn quickly and better understand image content,improving the consistency and visual quality of the generated images.Finally,qualitative and quantitative experiments were conducted on a self-built dataset.The experimental results indicate that PhotoGAN outperformed the current state-of-the-art techniques.It not only performed excellently on objective metrics but also appeared more visually appealing,particularly excelling in handling complex scenes and details.
