Spatiotemporal Multivariate Weather Prediction Network Based on CNN-Transformer by Ruowu Wu, Yandan Liang, Lianlei Lin, Zongwei Zhang

“…However, the existing data-based weather prediction methods cannot adequately capture the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of the target region, which makes it difficult for the existing methods to meet practical application requirements in terms of efficiency and accuracy. Changes in weather involve both strongly correlated spatial and temporal continuation relationships, and at the same time, the variables interact with each other, so capturing the dynamic correlations among space, time, and variables is particularly important for accurate weather prediction. …”

Multiple metabolic requirements for size homeostasis and initiation of division in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Shivatheja Soma, Kailu Yang, Maria I. Morales, Michael Polymenis

“…Furthermore, we show that adenylate kinase, encoded by ADK1, is a significant determinant of the efficiency of size control mechanisms. Finally, our data argue strongly that the cell size at division is not necessarily a function of the rate cells increase in size in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. …”
