Cilium height difference between strokes is more effective in driving fluid transport in mucociliary clearance: A numerical study by Ling Xu, Yi Jiang

“…We also test the effect of mucus viscosity, whose value is found to be inversely proportional to the transport ability. While multiple parts have to interplay and coordinate to allow for most effective mucociliary clearance, our findings from a simple model move us closer to understanding the effects of the cilia motion on the efficiency of this clearance system.…”

Divide-and-conquer routing for learning heterogeneous individualized capsules. by Hailei Yuan, Qiang Ren

“…In this paper, we propose a divide-and-conquer routing algorithm that groups primary capsules, enabling the model to leverage independent feature subspaces for more precise and efficient feature learning. By partitioning the primary capsules, the initialization of coupling coefficients is aligned with the hierarchical structure of the capsules, addressing the limitations of existing initialization strategies that either disrupt feature aggregation or lead to excessively small activation values. …”
