SpaCcLink: exploring downstream signaling regulations with graph attention network for systematic inference of spatial cell–cell communication by Jingtao Liu, Litian Ma, Fen Ju, Chenguang Zhao, Liang Yu

“…Results In this study, we put forward SpaCcLink, a cell–cell communication analysis method that takes into account the downstream influence of individual receptors within cells and systematically investigates the spatial patterns of communication as well as downstream signal networks. Analyses conducted on real datasets derived from humans and mice have demonstrated that SpaCcLink can help in identifying more relevant ligands and receptors, thereby enabling us to systematically decode the downstream genes and signaling pathways that are influenced by cell–cell communication. …”

A Hybrid Method Combining Variational Mode Decomposition and Deep Neural Networks for Predicting PM2.5 Concentration in China by Senlin Li, Bo Tang, Xiaowu Deng

“…To address this issue, this study introduces a hybrid parallel method (VDPS) that combines variational mode decomposition (VMD) with single deep neural networks for PM2.5 concentration prediction. The VMD algorithm, which can decompose signals adaptively and possesses a certain level of robustness to noise and interference, decomposes complex time series into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), which are then used as inputs for training a deep neural network prediction model. …”
