Article Abstract

Label-free imaging of bulk arterial tissue is demonstrated using a multimodal nonlinear optical microscope based on a photonic crystal fiber and a single femtosecond oscillator operating at 800 nm. Colocalized imaging of extracellular elastin fibers, fibrillar collagen, and lipid-rich structures within aortic tissue obtained from atherosclerosis-prone myocardial infarction-prone Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHLMI) rabbits is demonstrated through two-photon excited fluorescence, second harmonic generation, and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering, respectively. These images are shown to differentiate healthy arterial wall, early atherosclerotic lesions, and advanced plaques. Clear pathological changes are observed in the extracellular matrix of the arterial wall and correlated with progression of atherosclerotic disease as represented by the age of the WHHLMI rabbits.

Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction is essential for the development of novel drugs and the repurposing of existing ones. However, when the features of drug and target are applied to biological networks, there is a lack of capturing the relational features of drug-target interactions. And the corresponding multimodal models mainly depend on shallow fusion strategies, which results in suboptimal performance when trying to capture complex interaction relationships.

Single-cell multi-omics technologies are pivotal for deciphering the complexities of biological systems, with Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITE-seq) emerging as a particularly valuable approach. The dual-modality capability makes CITE-seq particularly advantageous for dissecting cellular heterogeneity and understanding the dynamic interplay between transcriptomic and proteomic landscapes. However, existing computational models for integrating these two modalities often struggle to capture the complex, non-linear interactions between RNA and antibody-derived tags (ADTs), and are computationally intensive.

A quantum model for serial reproduction.

Cognition

Department of Cognitive Science, Indiana University Bloomington, United States of America. Electronic address:

We propose a novel quantum walk framework for modeling serial reproduction, designed to effectively capture the transmission of inherently vague concepts, such as emotions and ideas, through quantum superpositions and controlled unitary operations. In a comprehensive comparison with Bayesian models using the largest dataset of reproduced narratives to date, our framework demonstrates superior predictive accuracy, surpassing Bayesian approaches in modeling non-linear relationships and multimodal distributions in emotion transmission. Furthermore, it successfully replicates recent key findings on emotion transmission in serial reproduction.

Ergonomics increasingly emphasises that seat design should align with the driver's physiological needs to enhance comfort and health. This study uses deep learning to evaluate the impact of seat multi-axis coherent vibration on driver comfort. Through road tests, the multi-axis vibration signals were collected from the seat backrest, cushion and floor, simultaneously collecting subjective evaluation data.

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder affecting ~50 million patients worldwide (30% refractory cases) with complex dynamical behavior governed by nonlinear differential equations. Seizures severely impact patients' quality of life and may lead to serious complications. As a primary diagnostic tool, electroencephalography (EEG) captures brain dynamics through non-stationary time series with measurable chaotic and fractal properties.
