Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 The prediction of construction cost of metro shield engineering is of great significance to project management. In this study, we used the rough set theory, a backpropagation (BP) neural network, and quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) to establish a prediction model for predicting the metro shield construction costs.

Molecular Markers for Detecting Schistosoma Species by Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification
Disease Markers, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 Schistosomiasis is considered a neglected parasitic disease. Around 280,000 people die from it annually, and more than 779 million people are at risk of getting infected. The schistosome species which infect human beings are Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma haematobium, Schistosoma intercalatum, Schistosoma japonicum, Schistosoma guineensis, and ...

Study on Foundation Pit Construction Cost Prediction Based on the Stacked Denoising Autoencoder
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 To accurately predict the construction costs of foundation pit projects, a model based on the stacked denoising autoencoder (SDAE) is constructed in this work. The influencing factors of foundation pit project construction costs are identified from the four attributes of construction cost management, namely, engineering, the environment, the market ...

Characterising PvRBSA: an exclusive protein from Plasmodium species infecting reticulocytes
Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background Plasmodium vivax uses multiple ligand-receptor interactions for preferential invasion of human reticulocytes. Several of these ligands have been identified by in silico approaches based on the role displayed by their orthologs in other ...
