Combining evolutionary computation with the variable neighbourhood search in creating an artificial music composer

open access: yesConnection Science, 2019
This paper presents a procedure which composes music pieces through handling four layers in music, namely pitches, rhythms, dynamics, and timber. As an innovative feature, the procedure uses the combination of a genetic algorithm with a synergetic ...

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

A discrete Jaya algorithm for vehicle routing problems with uncertain demands

open access: yesSystems Science & Control Engineering
Vehicle Routing Problem with Uncertain Demands (VRPUD) is one of the research hotspots in the field of logistics scheduling. In this paper, a Discrete Jaya (DJaya) algorithm is presented for the VRPUD to minimize the total cost.

An Efficient Local Search Algorithm for the Minimum $k$ -Dominating Set Problem

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The minimum $k$ -dominating set (MKDS) problem, a generalization of the classical minimum dominating set problem, is an important NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem with various applications.

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Variable neighbourhood decomposition search for 0-1 mixed integer programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper we propose a new hybrid heuristic for solving 0-1 mixed integer programs based on the principle of variable neighbourhood decomposition search. It combines variable neighbourhood search with a general-purpose CPLEX MIP solver.

Parallel BVH Construction Using Locally Density Clustering

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
A novel bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) construction method based on locally dense clustering (LDC) was proposed for the low quality of BVH constructed in a complex scene with uneven distribution of primitives.

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...

A Monarch Butterfly Optimization for the Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2017
The dynamic vehicle routing problem (DVRP) is a variant of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) in which customers appear dynamically. The objective is to determine a set of routes that minimizes the total travel distance.

Mutant p53R273H disrupts PDPK1 homodimerization and contributes to PDPK1 activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
How mutant p53R273H drives AKT signaling is unclear. We show that p53R273H, but not wild‐type, directly binds PDPK1 via a mutation‐dependent conformational change. This interaction disrupts inhibitory PDPK1 homodimerization and enhances AKT phosphorylation.
