This study focused on identifying potential key lncRNAs associated with gout under the mechanisms of copper death and iron death through ceRNA network analysis and randomforest (RF) algorithm, which aimed to provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of gout, and potential molecular targets for future therapeutic strategies of gout. Initially, we conducted an in-depth bioinformatics analysis of gout microarray chips to screen the key cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) and key ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs). Using these data, we constructed a key ceRNA network for gout. Finally, key lncRNAs associated with gout were identified through the RF algorithm combined with ROC curves, and validated using the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD). We successfully identified NLRP3, LIPT1, and DBT as key CRGs associated with gout, and G6PD, PRKAA1, LIG3, PHF21A, KLF2, PGRMC1, JUN, PANX2, and AR as key FRGs associated with gout. The key ceRNA network identified four downregulated key lncRNAs (SEPSECS-AS1, LINC01054, REV3L-IT1, and ZNF883) along with three downregulated mRNAs (DBT, AR, and PRKAA1) based on the ceRNA theory. According to CTD validation inference scores and biological functions of target mRNAs, we identified a potential gout-associated lncRNA ZNF883/hsa-miR-539-5p/PRKAA1 regulatory axis. This study identified the key lncRNA ZNF883 in the context of copper death and iron death mechanisms related to gout for the first time through the application of ceRNA network analysis and the RF algorithm, thereby filling a research gap in this field and providing new insights into the molecular mechanisms of gout. We further found that lncRNA ZNF883 might function in gout patients by regulating PRKAA1, the mechanism of which was potentially related to uric acid reabsorption in the proximal renal tubules and inflammation regulation. The proposed lncRNA ZNF883/hsa-miR-539-5p/PRKAA1 regulatory axis might represent a potential RNA regulatory pathway for controlling the

The main objective of this study is to explore and evaluate the application potential of combining Sixth Generation (6G) technology and randomforest (RF) algorithm in the intelligent traffic safety system. This study designs and implements an intelligent traffic safety system using the RF algorithm and 6G technology, to improve the traffic conditions' real-time monitoring and prediction ability. The advantages of 6G technology in real-time data transmission and efficient data processing. Moreover, the application of the RF algorithm in traffic congestion and accident prediction is discussed. The value of these techniques in improving prediction accuracy, system stability, and safety performance is analyzed. Extensive experimental tests are carried out in multiple traffic scenarios by constructing modules such as data collection and preprocessing, model training and optimization, real-time data processing, and system integration and display. In the experimental test, two main scenarios of traffic congestion warning and accident prediction are designed. The results reveal that in the traffic congestion warning scenario, under the condition that the traffic flow is 1800-2000 vehicles/hour and the average speed is 45-55 km/h, the prediction accuracy reaches 96%, the recall is 99%, and the F1 score is 97%. In the traffic accident prediction scenario, the system's prediction accuracy, recall, and F1 score are 92%, 95%, and 93% when the traffic flow is 1200-1400 vehicles/hour on rainy days. The results of this study provide practical technical solutions for smart city traffic management and explore the prospect of future intelligent transportation system development, thus offering a theoretical and empirical basis for research and practice in related fields.

The conversion of ultrasonic particle size distribution (PSD) is traditionally modelled as a first-kind Fredholm integral equation problem, requiring integration with theoretical models to calculate the PSD. In this paper, we propose a novel machine learning-based approach for PSD measurement using an ultrasonic-physical property parameter fusion model coupled with a random forest algorithm. This method employs feature and label parameter training to construct a randomforest model that predicts the PSD from input feature parameters, eliminating the need for complex theoretical model selection and inversion algorithms. Forty sets of experimental samples were used to obtain feature parameters for PSD prediction. The results, comparing the predicted PSD of three differently distributed suspended sediment samples with those obtained through a screening method, demonstrate coefficients of determination all above 0.8 and median diameter errors of 6.25%, 2.47% and 1.64%, respectively. In addition, we compared the proposed model with traditional inversion algorithms and the artificial bee colony algorithm, demonstrating that the randomforest-based method delivers more accurate and reliable PSD measurements. These findings highlight the potential of this approach as a promising alternative for future studies.

Groundwater resource management and protection depend heavily on the assessment of groundwater vulnerability. This study with emphasis on the shallow groundwater in the piedmont alluvial fan region of northern Henan Province, China, aiming to improve the accuracy and applicability of existing groundwater vulnerability evaluation methods. By incorporating additional indicators such as land use types and groundwater quality, the traditional DRASTIC model's indicator system was refined. The random forest algorithm was introduced to determine the weights of these indicators, leading to the establishment of a novel groundwater vulnerability evaluation model. The spatiotemporal patterns of groundwater vulnerability were then predicted by combining this model with a three-dimensional groundwater flow model and examining fluctuations in groundwater level. Evaluation statistics of the research area revealed that the high-risk area of groundwater contamination covered 141.41 km2, 39.78 % of the entire area. Over next 1 and 5 years, the low-risk area of groundwater contamination expanded by 0.34 % and 0.68 %, respectively, due to increased groundwater levels in the southern region. The primary causes of groundwater contamination in the study area were identified as high proportion of plowland and severe pesticide pollution. The shallow groundwater depth, gentle topographic slope, and high permeability coefficient of the vadose zone facilitated the entry of pollutants into the groundwater system. These research findings provide valuable insights for improving groundwater vulnerability evaluation methods.

This study applies the random forest algorithm to classify and evaluate the effectiveness of business human resources (HR) data, focusing on its potential in supporting strategic decision-making and enhancing organizational efficiency. The research introduces a model that automates the categorization of HR data, including employee records, performance evaluations, and training activities, using the randomforest method. By constructing both classification and effectiveness assessment models, the study aims to provide businesses with a robust tool for managing and evaluating employee contributions. Key HR metrics were analyzed and categorized, leading to the creation of an effectiveness evaluation model that offers objective insights into employee performance. The random forest algorithm's accuracy and stability were validated through cross-validation techniques, proving it to be effective in categorizing employee data and identifying different workforce groups. The models developed in this study are designed to support HR managers in optimizing human resource allocation, improving employee satisfaction, and driving overall business performance. The paper also discusses how the model can be optimized further by expanding data sources and applying it to practical business scenarios.

Diacetyl imparts a characteristic buttery aroma to foods and beverages. However, when present at high levels in Maotai-flavor liquor, it generates an undesirable buttery off-odor. The aim of this study was to identify the diacetyl-producing microorganisms in Maotai-flavor liquor with an ultimate aim to develop methods that could reduce diacetyl production. To explore the microbial origin of diacetyl in Maotai-flavor liquor, the off-odor intensity and diacetyl content of stacking fermented grains, which are used in the production of Maotai-flavor liquor, were evaluated. Then, 16S rRNA V3-V4 high-throughput sequencing and the random forest algorithm were combined to analyze the potential diacetyl producers. The featured selection results indicated that Lactobacillus was the major diacetyl contributor in the fermented grains, followed by Staphylococcus, Weissella, Pediococcus, and Klebsiella. To verify this, 123 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates were selected from the high diacetyl off-odor group samples, and the genus Lactobacillus accounted for more than 90% of the identified isolates. The results of our study showed that L. plantarum, L. pentosus, and L. fermentum were the major diacetyl-producing microorganisms (>90 mg/L). Moreover, the fermentation characteristics of the high-yield strain, L. plantarum MTL-09, showed that temperature and pH had strong effects on diacetyl production, which may offer a strategy for inhibiting the off-odor by controlling the pH or temperature during fermentation. The methods may also be useful for identification of key microorganisms for fermented foods and alcoholic beverages.

The randomforest (RF) algorithm was used to develop two models for predicting the first-year corrosion losses (C-1) of carbon steel in open air in various regions of the world. The first RF model built using combined databases of international programmes ISO CORRAG, MICAT and ECE/UN and tests conducted in Russia is intended for estimation of C-1 in various types of atmospheres in various regions of the world. The second RF model enables the prediction of C-1 in continental areas of the world. The accuracy of C-1 predictions by the two RF and two dose-response functions, i.e. the function presented in ISO 9223 standard and the new version for a non-marine atmosphere, was compared. The reliability of the two RF models was shown to be significantly higher than that of the dose-response functions with exception of the predictions for corrosion losses of carbon steel in regions of Russia with a cold climate.
