A principal odor map unifies diverse tasks in olfactory perception

Science, 2023
Mapping molecular structure to odor perception is a key challenge in olfaction. We used graph neural networks to generate a principal odor map (POM) that preserves perceptual relationships and enables odor quality prediction for previously ...

Walking Drosophila navigate complex plumes using stochastic decisions biased by the timing of odor encounters

bioRxiv, 2020
Insects find food, mates, and egg-laying sites by tracking odor plumes swept by complex wind patterns. Previous studies have shown that moths and flies localize plumes by surging upwind at odor onset and turning cross- or downwind at odor offset.

Behavioral and Neurobiological Convergence of Odor, Mood and Emotion: A Review

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020
The affective state is the combination of emotion and mood, with mood reflecting a running average of sequential emotional events together with an underlying internal affective state. There is now extensive evidence that odors can overtly or subliminally

Exposure-response Relationship and Chemical Characteristics of Atmospheric Odor Pollution from a Cigarette Factory

Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 2022
Odor pollution is one of the most complained environmental problems in China. At present, the odor control is mainly aimed at municipal facilities. There is a lack of reports on the atmospheric odor pollution produced by some special industrial emissions.
