LLM‐Powered Data Synthesis on Blockchain for Fusion Isomerism Learning in Heterogeneous Federated Systems

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe data starvation, architectural heterogeneity and Byzantine vulnerabilities fundamentally impede the deployment of robust multiclass classification models in decentralised edge environments. To address these intertwined challenges, we propose fusion isomerism learning (FusionIL), a secure and domain‐agnostic framework that ...

Heatwave‐Resilient Cuticular Microbiota Protect the Leaf Beetle Plagiodera versicolora From Fungal Infection

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and intensity of heatwaves—extreme thermal events characterized by prolonged supra‐optimal temperatures—exert profound impacts on global ecosystem stability and species interactions. While the disruptive effects of thermal stress on host physiology and gut microbiota are well documented, the role of cuticular ...

Estimating absolute DNA abundance from replicated metabarcoding

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Datasets derived from mixed‐template DNA amplification and sequencing (‘metabarcoding’) are common in environmental DNA (eDNA), microbiome or microbial ecology analyses. Such metabarcoding data have been broadly used to inform estimates of biodiversity, distribution and abundance across a wide range of species and habitats.
