In this paper, a BP neural network and an LSTM network are applied respectively to the prediction of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Wuhan, China and South Korea. The methods do not require specific theories of modelling and the predicted values can be obtained as long as the conventional parameters are set. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of all the experiments are below 5% and the values of the determinable coefficient R are all larger than 0.9. The experiments show that the models can fit the actual values well and make relatively accurate predictions. As of March 29, 2020, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in Wuhan is expected to reach 50,068 using BP neural networks and 49,972 using LSTM network, respectively. As of April 13, 2020, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in South Korea is expected to reach 8,862 using BP neural networks and 8,716 using LSTM network, respectively. The models of neural networks are effective in predicting the trend of the COVID-19 epidemic, which is meaningful to prevent and control the epidemic.

To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the differences in yield formation among two parents(P1 and P2) and their F1 hybrid of cucumber, biomass production and whole source–sink dynamics were analyzed using a functional–structural plant model(FSPM) that simulates both the number and size of individual organs. Observations of plant development and organ biomass were recorded throughout the growth periods of the plants. The GreenLab Model was used to analyze the differences in fruit setting, organ expansion, biomass production and biomass allocation. The source–sink parameters were estimated from the experimental measurements. Moreover, a particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO) was applied to analyze whether the fruit setting is related to the source–sink ratio. The results showed that the internal source–sink ratio increased in the vegetative stage and reached a peak until the first fruit setting. The high yield of hybrid F1 is the compound result of both fruit setting and the internal source–sink ratio. The optimization results also revealed that the incremental changes in fruit weight result from the increases in sink strength and proportion of plant biomass allocation for fruits. The model-aided analysis revealed that heterosis is a result of a delicate compromise between fruit setting and fruit sink strength. The organlevel model may provide a computational approach to define the target of breeding by combination with a genetic model.

Typhoons pose significant threats to coastal and inland regions,with their impacts exacerbated by climate change and population growth [1]. Recent studies have shown increased frequency of powerful storms, slower translation speeds, northward shifts in the Western North Pacific (WNP) basin, and a near tripling of global exposure to typhoons since 1970 [1–4]. These changes present new challenges for forecasters and researchers, particularly in predicting impacts on inland and high-latitude populations lacking prior exposure or resilience to typhoon effects.

It is crucial to understand the glucose control within our bodies. Bariatric/metabolic surgeries, including laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass(RYGB), provide an avenue for exploring the potential key factors involved in maintaining glucose homeostasis since these surgeries have shown promising results in improving glycemic control among patients with severe type 2 diabetes(T2D). For the first time, a markedly altered population of serum proteins in patients after LSG was discovered and analyzed through proteomics. Apolipoprotein A-Ⅳ(apoA-Ⅳ) was revealed to be increased dramatically in diabetic obese patients following LSG, and a similar effect was observed in patients after RYGB surgery. Moreover, recombinant apoA-Ⅳ protein treatment was proven to enhance insulin secretion in isolated human islets. These results showed that apoA-Ⅳ may play a crucial role in glycemic control in humans, potentially through enhancing insulin secretion in human islets. ApoA-Ⅳ was further shown to enhance energy expenditure and improve glucose tolerance in diabetic rodents, through stimulating glucose-dependent insulin secretion in pancreatic β cells, partially via Gαs-coupled GPCR/cAMP(G protein-coupled receptor/cyclic adenosine monophosphate) ***, T55-121, truncated peptide 55-121 of apoA-Ⅳ, was discovered to mediate the function of apoA-Ⅳ. These collective findings contribute to our understanding of the relationship between apoA-Ⅳ and glycemic control, highlighting its potential as a biomarker or therapeutic target in managing and improving glucose regulation.

Goal-conditioned hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) is a promising approach for scaling up reinforcement learning (RL) techniques. However, it often suffers from training inefficiency as the action space of the high-level, i.e., the goal space, is often large. Searching in a large goal space poses difficulties for both high-level subgoal generation and low-level policy learning. In this paper, we show that this problem can be effectively alleviated by restricting the high-level action space from the whole goal space to a k-step adjacent region of the current state using an adjacency constraint. We theoretically prove that the proposed adjacency constraint preserves the optimal hierarchical policy in deterministic MDPs, and show that this constraint can be practically implemented by training an adjacency network that can discriminate between adjacent and non-adjacent subgoals. Experimental results on discrete and continuous control tasks show that incorporating the adjacency constraint improves the performance of state-of-the-art HRL approaches in both deterministic and stochastic environments.

Direct current (DC) motors are one of the most important kind of motors and are widely used in robotic and industrial applications. Recently, there have been significant efforts to develop direct current (DC) motors in an attempt to control speed of motors. However, conventional controlling approaches perform undesirably in terms of stability and quick response. Therefore, this paper presents a hybrid intelligent controller configuration for optimized speed control of brushless direct current (BLDC) motors in a factory supervisory control data acquisition (SCADA) system. We compare this hybrid intelligent controller with a conventional PID controller, fuzzy logic controller (FLC), and artificial neural network model reference controller (ANNMRC) in MATLAB , and the results show that the hybrid (neuro-fuzzy) controller performs superior in terms of stability, speed trajectory tracking capability, fast response, and simplicity for implementation.

Traffic congestion is a serious problem around the world and to a great extent influences urban communities in various manners including increased stress levels, delayed deliveries, fuel wastage, and monetary losses. Therefore, an accurate congestion prediction algorithm to limit these misfortunes is fundamental. This paper presents a comparative study of traffic congestion prediction systems including decision tree, logistic regression, and neural networks. Five days of traffic information (1,231,200 samples) are utilized to drive the prediction model. The TensorFlow and the Clementine machine learning platforms are used for data preprocessing, training, and testing of the model. The confusion matrix clears that decision tree has better prediction performance and leads the other two methods with accuracy (97%), macro-average precision (95%), macro-average recall (96%), and macro-average F1_score (96%) in the python programming environment. Moreover, performance of the three prediction models is verified in Clementine environment and decision tree outperforms all other models with an accuracy of 97.65%.
