Meticulously Unsupervised Entity Alignment With Large Language Models
ABSTRACT Knowledge graph entity alignment refers to the process of identifying and linking entities that refer to the same real‐world object from different knowledge graphs. Structural heterogeneity and scarcity of training data have always been two major challenges that impede e...

AI-supported extraction of functional tissue unit properties for Human Reference Atlas construction
Abstract The Human Reference Atlas (HRA) effort brings together experts from more than 25 international consortia to capture the multiscale organization of the human body—from large anatomical organ systems (macro) to the single-cell level (micro). Functional tissue units (FTU, m...

Vortex dynamics during pinch-off of micro-droplets
Micro-droplets are extensively used in chemical, biological and medical research, primarily for conducting various tests on samples, including living organisms, using a microfluidic framework. Recent studies have shown that the physiology of bacteria can be significantly altered...

A New Characterization of the Wulff Shape
We prove a new charcaterization of the Wulff shape in termes of higher order anisotropic mean curvatures. Namely, if a closed, connnected and oriented hypersurface of the Euclidean space has a constant higher order anisotropic mean curvature H F r and another one H F s almost con...

Development of the noise theoretical formula for analyzing noise components on CT images
Abstract This study derived a theoretical formula for analyzing noise components in computed tomography (CT) images and evaluated the relationship between CT doses and each noise component on CT images. We devised a theoretical formula for estimating the noise components using CT...

Drosophila pyruvate kinase links metabolic state with circadian output via TARANIS and PDF
Abstract The circadian clock generates ∼24-hour rhythms that anticipate daily environmental changes. Circadian clock and glucose metabolism are tightly interconnected, and both are disrupted in aging and disease. To examine how glucose hypometabolism impacts circadian rhythm, we...

Neural sharpening of object categories through parafoveal priming
Abstract During natural vision, humans make saccades approximately every 250–300 ms to fixate on important objects in a scene. Given this rapid succession of eye movements, it has been proposed that visual processing begins in the parafovea, prior to fixation. Such parafoveal pre...

Optimisation of liver homogenate procedure to evaluate liver enzymes and lipid biomarkers in mice
Background: Liver disease accounts for 2 million deaths per year worldwide, due to viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Invasive techniques such as liver biopsy remain the gold standard for diagnosing fatty liver diseases and are supported by established scoring systems...

Testing the gearbox hypothesis for insect flight control
Across Diptera, sustained flight relies on stretch-activated asynchronous flight muscles that generate multiple contraction cycles per motor neuron impulse, enabling wingbeat frequencies of ∼100-1000 Hz. These muscles attach to the thorax as indirect flight muscles, driving wing...

It's about time: Specific and unspecific effects of episodic future thinking on farsighted decisions
Humans tend to discount the value of delayed rewards. As a consequence, they forego larger long-term benefits (e.g., €29 in 91 days) in favor of smaller short-term gains (e.g., €20 now). Episodic future thinking (EFT) attenuates such delay discounting. That is, people are more li...

Abstract Context Machine Learning (ML) significantly impacts Software Engineering (SE), but studies primarily focus on practitioners, neglecting researchers. This ignores practices and challenges in teaching, researching, or reviewing ML applications in SE. Objective This study a...
