Influenza A virus matrix protein (M1) is the most abundant conservative that regulates replication, assembly and budding of viral particles upon infection. Several host cell factors have been determined to interact with M1 possibly in regulating influenza replication. By yeast two-hybrid screening, isomerase cyclophilin (CypA) was identified protein. CypA specifically interacted both vitro vivo. The mutagenesis results showed bound functional middle (M) domain M1. depletion endogenous by RNA...
Abstract We study the generic problem of path optimization for a critical infrastructure link between two locations on surface Earth in vicinity earthquake‐prone areas. The has (conflicting) objective functions, one minimizing construction cost and other number potential repairs along wake earthquakes. In our model, Earth's is approximated by triangulated manifold, ground motion intensity data are used to provide measure repair rate. approach multiobjective variational first converting it...
Optimal multi-target tracking in the colocated multiple-input multiple-output radar system with limited beam resources has been widely considered past decades but, general, still remains an open question due to its high complexity. Here, we aim minimize a measure of overall error covariance target kinematic state estimation by appropriately allocating different targets. We model scheduling problem as restless multi-armed bandit that aims expected total discounted cost over infinite time...

Specifically, designed with two parallel CNN channels, each which independently extracts spatial temporal from input data. This...
Coordinate registration (CR) is the key technology for improving target positioning accuracy of sky-wave over-the-horizon radar (OTHR). The CR parameters are derived by matching sea–land clutter classification (SLCC) results with prior geographic information. However, SLCC often contain mixed clutter, leading to discrepancies between land and island contours information, which makes it challenging calculate accurate OTHR. To address these challenges, we transform data from Euclidean space...

In particular, we address the selecting route for laying cable under arbitrary topography, based data. First, derive semi-supervised probability density estimation model likelihood disaster. Based this probabilistic model, generate nearest neighbor graph. The graph represents each data point with four-dimensional space formed...
In the sea-land clutter classification of sky-wave over-the-horizon-radar (OTHR), imbalanced and scarce data leads to a poor performance deep learning-based model. To solve this problem, paper proposes an improved auxiliary classifier generative adversarial network (AC-GAN) architecture, namely variational autoencoder (AC-VAEGAN). AC-VAEGAN can synthesize higher quality samples than AC-GAN serve as effective tool for augmentation. Specifically, one-dimensional convolutional architecture is...
We aim to maximize the energy efficiency, gauged as average cost per job, in a large-scale server farm with various storage or/and computing components modeled parallel abstracted servers. Each operates multiple power modes characterized by potentially different service and consumption rates. The heterogeneity of servers complicate maximization problem, where optimal solutions are generally intractable. Relying on Whittle relaxation technique, we resort near-optimal, scalable job-assignment...

A relationship that links the accuracy of nitrogen oxide emission factors (NOx EFs) calculated from chasing measurements (EFchasing) to meteorological variables was developed. To quantitatively evaluate this relationship, we postulated an "effective ratio" concept based on momentum wake theory. The effective ratio is considered a function in vehicle wake. mobile platform used characterize NOx EFs by following tested vehicles were installed with portable measuring system (PEMS) restricted...

Over-the-horizon radar (OTHR) target tracking in the presence of complicated ionospheric environment mainly faces three challenges, i.e., discrete uncertainty multipath data association, continuous heights, and coupling state estimation parameters identification. The existing OTHR algorithms demanded that heights should be exactly known or statistical properties known. However, is inaccurate due to inherent variability ionosphere, especially when deployment ionosondes unavailable sea area...
Bacterial infection often follows virus due to pulmonary interferon-γ (IFN-γ) production during infection, which down-regulates macrophage phagocytosis. The molecular mechanisms for this process are still poorly understood. In the present study, IFN-γ treatment significantly inhibited ability of mouse macrophages phagocytize nonopsonized chicken red blood cells (cRBCs), bacteria and beads in vitro, while it enhanced IgG- complement-opsonized decreased expression...
