Qualitative Criterion for Interception in a Pursuit/Evasion Game

, 2009
A qualitative account is given of a differential pursuit/evasion game. A criterion for the existence of an intercept solution is obtained using future cones that contain all attainable trajectories of target or interceptor originating from an initial ...

Multi-player pursuit–evasion games with one superior evader [PDF]

, 2016
Inspired by the hunting and foraging behaviors of group predators, this paper addresses a class of multi-player pursuit–evasion games with one superior evader, who moves faster than the pursuers.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Enhanced Adaptive QPSO-Enabled Game-Theoretic Model Predictive Control for AUV Pursuit–Evasion Under Velocity Constraints

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Pursuit–evasion involves coupled, antagonistic decision-making and is prone to local-optimal behaviors when solved online under nonlinear dynamics and constraints.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Intelligent Maneuver Strategy for a Hypersonic Pursuit-Evasion Game Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning

Aerospace, 2023
In order to improve the problem of overly relying on situational information, high computational power requirements, and weak adaptability of traditional maneuver methods used by hypersonic vehicles (HV), an intelligent maneuver strategy combining deep ...

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

Cooperative Pursuit-Evasion Games With a Flat Sphere Condition

IEEE Open Journal of Control Systems
In planar pursuit-evasion differential games considering a faster pursuer and a slower evader, the interception points resulting from equilibrium strategies lie on the Apollonius circle.

An improved lion strategy for the lion and man problem

, 2017
In this paper, a novel lion strategy for David Gale's lion and man problem is proposed. The devised approach enhances a popular strategy proposed by Sgall, which relies on the computation of a suitable "center".
