The human gut microbiome comprises over 10 trillion microbes and plays important roles in maintaining metabolism, body homeostasis, impacting immune function. Metagenomics which studies genomic data from clinical and environmental samples is crucial in understanding the interplay between the host and the gut microbiome. Recently, functional profiling of metagenomes helps to identify alterations in microbial functions, particularly enzyme-encoding genes. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is known as one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. In this study, we aimed to find the CRC-associated enzymes by analyzing metagenomic data with different machine learning methods. A total of 1262 samples including CRC and control groups from different countries were used in this study. This dataset was obtained by functionally profiling metagenomics data and estimating community level enzyme commission (EC) abundance values. For the analysis of this dataset, RCE-IFE and SVM-RCE machine learning methods, which are group-based feature selection methods, were compared with 6 different individual feature selection methods. 10 times Monte-Carlo Cross Validation was used in our experiments. It was observed that RCE-IFE, Extreme Gradient Boosting and Select K Best methods similarly provided the best performances. Especially in this study, besides the its high performance, the group-based feature selection method RCE-IFE grouped enzymes into clusters unlike TFS, and then identified biologically relevant CRC-associated enzymes.

Accurate nodule detection with high sensitivity is essential for early lung cancer diagnosis. Focusing on small nodule detection, we propose an end-to-end framework, which includes a backbone, a candidate detection network, and a filter network. The backbone learns multi-layer features so that the region proposal network with feature pyramid structure detects nodules of various sizes, especially small ones. Moreover, the filter net is designed to further classify the proposals with low confidence, which utilizes the decoupled feature maps to make the features of nodules more discriminative. We validate our framework on the LUNA16 dataset. The results show that our framework detects more small nodules, and achieves a comparable performance with other CAD systems.

Secure system operations rely on reliable network structures. The loss of controllability may be the main reason to cause cascaded failures for complex network, e.g., Energy Internet (EI). However, the existing studies do not consider the network controllability to guide the system reconfiguration. To address this issue, the paper proposes a new structuring planning method for EI with consideration of controllability and economy. Firstly, the structure planning problem is modeled as a dynamic optimization problem with the tradeoff objectives of maximum social welfare and minimum driven nodes for long-term period. Then, a mixed maximum matching and deep deterministic policy gradient method is presented to obtain the approximate optimal planning solution with strong adaptability. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Climate change and geopolitics have led to the conception of plans for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the sustainability of existing fossil-based energy systems. In this respect, district heating has been identified as an indispensable player for its potential to integrate seamlessly environmentally-friendly heat sources. To improve the efficiency of these district heating systems, optimal operation schemes can be devised and enforced through control systems. To this end, we present a control-oriented nonlinear ODE-based model of temperature dynamics in a multi-producer district heating system. The model features a modular design and comprises the thermal dynamics of heat exchangers of producers and consumers interconnected by a distribution network of meshed topology. Then, we establish passivity properties and zero-state detectability for the modeled temperature dynamics that could be exploited for controller design and solving constrained optimization problems.

Accurate and timely estimation of sunflower yield is crucial for agricultural researchers, farmers, and breeders. Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with multi-spectral sensors has been adopted to meet the need for precise sunflower seed yield predictions. This study proposes a combined approach that integrates 12 remotely sensed vegetation indices (VIs) with 3 key physiological traits - fresh weight, dry weight, and moisture factor - to capture the complex dynamics affecting sunflower crop. Predictive performance of VIs alone and in combination with physiological traits is evaluated using Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). Our results show that incorporating these two sets of features, along with their temporal, spectral, and statistical characteristics, leads to consistent improvements in sunflower seed yield estimation that can reduce the root mean squared error to as low as 0.4075 ( $\text{kg} / \text{plot}$ ).
