SUMO modification of a heterochromatin histone demethylase JMJD2A enables viral gene transactivation and viral replication. by Wan-Shan Yang, Mel Campbell, Pei-Ching Chang

“…These finding suggest that SUMO-2/3 modification plays an essential role in the epigenetic regulatory function of JMJD2A. Consistently, hierarchical clustering analysis of RNA-seq data showed that a SUMO-deficient mutant of JMJD2A was more closely related to JMJD2A knockdown than to wild-type. …”

NDAWL-PINN: a new non-dimensionalization and multi-task learning approach for efficient training of physics-informed neural networks to solve the shallow water equations by Xin Qi, Dawei Zhang, Fan Wang, Wuxia Bi, Mingda Lu

“…This paper introduces a novel training approach that integrates non-dimensionalization with a multi-task learning technique, termed Automatic Weighted Loss (AWL), to autonomously achieve an optimal balance for each loss function. In the baseline PINN training for solving time-dependent PDEs, multiple weights (usually more than six) must be manually tuned for the model, whereas this method can reduce the number of scaling weights to only one. …”

Developing an ISO11783-compliant prescription map for variable rate spraying in vineyards based on 3D canopy reconstruction by Björn Poss, Nikos Tsoulias, Galibjon M. Sharipov, Andreas Heiß, Dimitrios S. Paraforos

“…A strong correlation (R² = 0.92) between the manually measured leaf areas and the number of points in the generated LiDAR 3D point cloud was determined. This correlation's linear regression was used to calculate dose rates, leading to the successful development of a grid-based prescription map in ISO-XML format, compatible with ISOBUS Task Controller functionality. …”

Research on Pricing and Effort Investment Decisions for Dual-Channel Fresh Product Supply Chain Under the Participation of Third-Party Logistics Provider by Yunting Wu, Aimin Zhu, Lijuan Yu, Wenbo Wang

“…In most cases, the D1 Model generates the highest system profit. However, in scenarios where consumers are highly sensitive to freshness and marketing efforts, the system profit of the D2 Model is higher than that of the D1 Model.
