Linear partition heuristics for a generalized delivery workload balancing problem with an allocation of cargoes to interim storage lanes

Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2019
Given m periodic deliveries performed by a single tractor and a finite set N of cargoes with their arrival times and processing times, we are asked to find a feasible partition of the cargo set N into m disjoint subsets.

Urine sampling and collection system optimization and testing [PDF]

A Urine Sampling and Collection System (USCS) engineering model was developed to provide for the automatic collection, volume sensing and sampling of urine from each micturition. The purpose of the engineering model was to demonstrate verification of the

RaMBat: Accurate identification of medulloblastoma subtypes from diverse data sources with severe batch effects

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
To integrate multiple transcriptomics data with severe batch effects for identifying MB subtypes, we developed a novel and accurate computational method named RaMBat, which leveraged subtype‐specific gene expression ranking information instead of absolute gene expression levels to address batch effects of diverse data sources.

Exemplar Learning and Memory Retrieval-Based Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm with Engineering Applications

Biomimetics
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a bio-inspired stochastic optimization algorithm that simulates the foraging behavior of birds. Despite its simplicity and efficiency, PSO often suffers from premature convergence and a poor balance between ...

Identification of serum protein biomarkers for pre‐cancerous lesions associated with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This work identified serum proteins associated with pancreatic epithelial neoplasms (PanINs) and early‐stage PDAC. Proteomics screens assessed genetically engineered mice with abundant PanINs, KPC mice (Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐KrasG12D/+ Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐Trp53R172H/+ Pdx1‐Cre) before PDAC development and also early‐stage PDAC patients (n = 31), compared to benign ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.

Simultaneous Optimization of Variable Blank Holder Force Trajectory and Tools Motion in Deep Drawing via Sequential Approximate Optimization

Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2012
In this paper, variable blank holder force (VBHF) trajectory and tools motion are optimized simultaneous by a sequential approximate optimization (SAO) with radial basis function (RBF) network.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.
