Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

USVs Path Planning for Maritime Search and Rescue Based on POS-DQN: Probability of Success-Deep Q-Network

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Efficient maritime search and rescue (SAR) is crucial for responding to maritime emergencies. In traditional SAR, fixed search path planning is inefficient and cannot prioritize high-probability regions, which has significant limitations.

A virtual testbed for maritime search and rescue: Customizing YOLO for small object detection in unreal engine

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science
Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR) operations face three main issues: they are time-critical, rescue boat access is often difficult, and the vastness of the ocean poses a great challenge to identifying drowning victims. Rescue operations in situations such
