<title>Abstract</title> Background To characterize Fc N-glycosylation patterns of disease-specific IgG (DSIgG) in anti-MDA5-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5 + DM) and evaluate their associations with interstitial lung disease (ILD) severity. Methods Eighty-four patients with MDA5 +...

Reliability-Aware Multi-Modal Sentiment Analysis Under Missing and Corrupted Modalities

Multi-modal sentiment analysis integrates linguistic, acoustic, and visual evidence, yet the reliability of these streams varies across samples because of missing observations, masking, measurement noise, and feature corruption. This paper presents a trainable reliability-aware e...

MultidimensionalQuantitative Analysis of BiologicalResponses to DNA Nanoassemblies with Defined Structure and SurfaceChemistry

Abstract DNA nanoassemblies (DNs) have emerged as programmable platforms for biomedical applications; however, a quantitative understanding of how structure and surface chemistry jointly govern their biological behavior remains limited. Here, we establish a multidimensional analy...

Hierarchical Fuzzy Adaptive Control for Cooperative Pursuit‐Evasion Formation in Marine Surface Vehicles

ABSTRACT This paper investigates a formation‐based cooperative pursuit‐evasion (PE) problem for marine surface vehicles (MSVs) under local sensing and partially connected communication topologies. A distributed two‐layer control framework is proposed for the case where each pursu...

Carbon Dots as ElectrostaticallyDriven Base-SelectiveChemical Compilers for Programmable Nucleic Acid Condensation

Abstract Cells execute complex biological functions through programmed biomolecular condensation, yet a general and programmable strategy for nucleic acid condensation in vitro remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate that carbon dots (CDs) function as an electrostatic-driven ve...

Symmetry-Guided Neural Approximation and Convolutional Non-Dominated Sorting on Synthetic Two-Objective Benchmarks Toward Option-Pricing Model Research in Financial Mathematics and Quantitative Economic Analysis

Two-objective optimization requires both reliable front approximation and explainable non-dominated extraction. This study develops a theoretical and computational method that maps sampled objective vectors to rasterized objective-space images and processes their Pareto structure...

Behavioral Effects and Potential Mechanisms of Imidacloprid-and Flupyradifurone-Induced Neurotoxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Abstract Neonicotinoid insecticides raise concerns about neurotoxicity in nontarget organisms, motivating evaluation of alternatives such as flupyradifurone (FPF). We compared the neurotoxicity of imidacloprid (IMI) and FPF in Caenorhabditis elegans after 72 h exposure to 0.1–100...
