Constrained multiobjective optimization problems (CMOPs) involve multiple objectives to be optimized and various constraints satisfied, which challenges the evolutionary algorithms in balancing constraints. This article attempts explore utilize relationship between constrained Pareto front (CPF) unconstrained (UPF) solve CMOPs. Especially, for a given CMOP, process is divided into learning stage evolving stage. The purpose of measure CPF UPF. To this end, we first create two populations...

The inference of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from expression data can mine the direct regulations among genes and gain deep insights into biological processes at a network level. During past decades, numerous computational approaches have been introduced for inferring GRNs. However, many them still suffer various problems, e.g., Bayesian (BN) methods cannot handle large-scale due to their high complexity, while information theory-based identify directions interactions also false...

Abstract Motivation It is a challenging task to discover personalized driver genes that provide crucial information on disease risk and drug sensitivity for individual patients. However, few methods have been proposed identify the personalized-sample from cancer omics data due lack of samples each individual. To circumvent this problem, here we present novel single-sample controller strategy (SCS) mutation profiles network controllability perspective. Results SCS integrates expression into...

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are major negative regulators of immune responses in cancer and chronic infections. It remains unclear if regulation MDSC activity different conditions is controlled by similar mechanisms. We compared MDSCs mice with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. Chronic LCMV infection caused the development monocytic (M-MDSCs) but did not induce polymorphonuclear (PMN-MDSCs). In contrast, both populations were present models. An acquisition...

Although existing computational models have identified many common driver genes, it remains challenging to identify the personalized genes by using samples of an individual patient. Recently, methods exploiting structure-based control principles complex networks provide new clues for identifying minimum number nodes drive state transition large-scale from initial desired state. However, network cannot be directly applied due unknown dynamics system. Here we proposed model (PNC) employing...

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is an allotetraploid species and a typical thermophilic crop that can survive grow well under temperatures up to 45 °C. CRISPR/LbCpf1 (LbCas12a) temperature-sensitive system for plant genome editing (Malzahn et al., 2019) has been successfully applied in such as rice, soya bean, tobacco, maize cotton (Lee 2019; Li 2018; Tang 2017; Xu 2019). However, the temperature sensitivity of LbCpf1 not tested yet, high temperature-resistant crop. In order improve efficiency...

Identifying the biomarkers from personalized gene interaction network of individual patients is important for disease diagnosis. However, existing methods not only ignore prior practical use but also observability entire system. Therefore, this paper proposes a new constrained multi-objective optimization-based temporal model (CMTNO) to identify biomarkers, which requires minimizing number selected nodes including ordinary and (the first optimization objective) maximizing second on premise...

Discrete diffusion models have emerged as a powerful generative modeling framework for discrete data with successful applications spanning from text generation to image synthesis. However, their deployment faces challenges due the high dimensionality of state space, necessitating development efficient inference algorithms. Current approaches mainly fall into two categories: exact simulation and approximate methods such $\tau$-leaping. While suffer unpredictable time redundant function...

Inspired by scaling laws and large language models, research on large-scale recommendation models has gained significant attention. Recent advancements have shown that expanding sequential to can be an effective strategy. Current state-of-the-art primarily use self-attention mechanisms for explicit feature interactions among items, while implicit are managed through Feed-Forward Networks (FFNs). However, these often inadequately integrate temporal positional information, either adding them...
