From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Physics-constrained adaptive kernel interpolation for region-to-region acoustic transfer function: a Bayesian approach

EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing
A kernel interpolation method for the acoustic transfer function (ATF) between regions constrained by the physics of sound while being adaptive to the data is proposed.

Unsupervised Work Behavior Pattern Extraction Based on Hierarchical Probabilistic Model

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
In this study, we address the challenge of analyzing worker behaviors in high‐mix, low‐volume production environments, where traditional supervised learning methods struggle owing to the lack of labeled data and task variability among workers. To overcome these issues, we propose a novel hierarchical approach for unsupervised behavior pattern ...

Clustering-Based Construction of Hidden Markov Models for Generative Kernels [PDF]

, 2009
Generative kernels represent theoretically grounded tools able to increase the capabilities of generative classification through a discriminative setting. Fisher Kernel is the first and mostly-used representative, which lies on a widely investigated mathematical background.

Landscape factors influencing predation on capercaillie nests by two competing mesopredators: pine marten and red fox

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predation by pine martens Martes martes and red foxes Vulpes vulpes is an important factor influencing the population dynamics of capercaillie Tetrao urogallus. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding the relative effects of these mesopredators on the reproductive success of capercaillie. To better understand how various landscape factors influence

Assessing physiological, behavioral and movement responses to Suprelorin implant delivery methods in free‐ranging eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

From mammoth to miniature: ‘Model of a summer encampment of the Yakuts’ as a narrative object Du mammouth à la miniature : La maquette de camp d’été des Yakoutes comme objet de narration

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Classic anthropological accounts of miniature objects have focused on their spatial and aesthetic dimensions, with more recent work addressing their communicative potential, connections with play, and role in protecting threatened cultural knowledge. This article analyses responses to a miniature landscape model of yhyakh, a festival celebrated in the ...

The shibirets4 mutation causes temperature sensitive paralytic and lethal phenotypes in the Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Bactrocera tryoni, the Queensland fruit fly, is among the most damaging insect pests to the Australian horticultural industry as larvae infest ripening fruits or vegetables prior to harvest. Genetic biocontrol using Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs have been used to successfully suppress populations, via mass release of factory‐reared ...

Simple procedures for finding mean first passage times in Markov chains [PDF]

, 2005
The derivation of mean first passage times in Markov chains involves the solution of a family of linear equations. By exploring the solution of a related set of equations, using suitable generalized inverses of the Markovian kernel I – P, where P is the ...
