An Efficient Biological Codon Recognition Reservoir Computing System Based on Low‐Energy Epitaxial Hf0.52Zr0.48O2 Ferroelectric Memristors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reports on epitaxially grown Hf0.52Zr0.48O2 ferroelectric memristors with high stability (high durability exceeding 108 cycles and a retention time exceeding 104 s for 16 states) and ultra‐low operating energy consumption (∼121 fJ). A memristor array‐based reservoir computing system is constructed and applied for the first time in the field ...

The formulation of structural time series models in discrete and continuous time [PDF]

, 1983
This paper sets out an approach for modelling univariate time series, including those in which observations are available on a daily basis. An underlying continuous time model is formulated and it is shown that this model has important implications for ...

A Worm‐Inspired Origami Robot with Multimodal Locomotion for Adaptive Mobility in Complex Pipeline Environments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An origami worm‐inspired robot achieves multimodal locomotion in confined pipelines through mechatronic integration that embeds actuation, control, and communication within each origami module. Large, reversible configuration and dimensional changes enable 25 gaits synthesized by a unified framework across peristaltic, inchworm, and wheel‐rolling modes

Association Between Introduction of the 23-valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPSV23) and Pneumonia Incidence and Mortality Among General Older Population in Japan: A Community-based Study

Journal of Epidemiology
Background: With global aging, especially in Asia, preventing pneumonia among seniors is vital. The necessity of introducing pneumococcal vaccines among the elderly has been highlighted, but there is a paucity of community-based real-world evidence on ...

Interrupted time series datasets from studies investigating the impact of interventions or exposures in public health and social science: a data note

BMC Research Notes
Objectives The interrupted time series (ITS) design is commonly used to investigate the impact of an intervention or exposure in public health. There are many statistical methods that can be used to analyse ITS data and to meta-analyse their results.

Physics‐Informed Neural Network‐Enabled Forward Prediction and Inverse Design of Ring Origami

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a KRT‐PINN framework that integrates Kirchhoff rod theory with physics‐informed neural networks for the forward prediction and inverse design of ring origami consisting of closed‐loop rods. The framework predicts stable states of segmented rings with prescribed natural‐curvature profiles and determines the natural‐curvature profiles ...
