A hybrid long short-term memory with generalized additive model and post-hoc explainable artificial intelligence with causal inference for air pollutants prediction in Kimberley, S... by Israel Edem Agbehadji, Ibidun Christiana Obagbuwa

“…The study addresses the problem of nonlinear characteristics of common air pollutants by proposing a deep learning time-series model based on the long short-term memory (LSTM) integrated with a generalized additive model (GAM). LSTM model captures both nonlinear relationships and temporal long-term dependencies in time-series data, and GAM provides insight into the statistical relationship between selected features and the target pollutant. …”

Introduction: Titanium alloys containing the β phase have much better corrosion resistance. Some alloying elements, such as Mo, stabilize this phase. Among the Ti alloys that contain this element, the Ti-10Mo alloy is of particular importance. If this alloy is produced using selective laser melting (SLM), it will be an approach that is user-friendly due to the nature of the process.... by Arezoo Pourshoja, karim Avak, Maziyar Azadbeh, Mohamadreza Etminanfar, Mehdi Ojaghi

Biological Cost of Helicobacter pylori Rifampicin Resistance by K. T. Momynaliev, V. V. Chelysheva, T. A. Akopian, O. V. Selezneva, V. M. Govorun

“…The findings could be evident of the fact that the adaptation to RIF changed the properties of the cell on one hand in such a way that its mutation capacity increased and that the target selection on the other hand revealed hypermutable cells, likely usual for the bacterial population.…”

Occurrence and persistence of pseudo‐tail spots in the barn swallow by Masaru Hasegawa

“…Pseudo‐tail spots on the undertail covers do not incur any flight cost, unlike the white tail spots on the tail itself, and thus presence of pseudo‐tail spots can represent an initial stage of a deceptive elaboration as predicted by sexual selection theory (i.e., males can elaborate traits with no additional flight cost, uncoupling flight cost and trait expression). …”

Performance Optimization and Comprehensive Analysis of Binary Nutcracker Optimization Algorithm: A Case Study of Feature Selection and Merkle–Hellman Knapsack Cryptosystem by Mohamed Abdel-Basset, Reda Mohamed, Ibrahim M. Hezam, Karam M. Sallam

“…Because of the continuous nature of the classical NOA and the discrete nature of the binary problems, two different families of transfer functions, namely S-shaped and V-shaped, are extensively investigated for converting the classical NOA into a binary variant, namely BNOA, applicable for various binary problems. Additionally, BNOA is improved using a local search strategy based on effectively integrating some genetic operators into the BNOA’s exploitation and exploration; this additional variant is called BINOA. …”
