Time Series Forecasting Fusion Network Model Based on Prophet and Improved LSTM

Time series forecasting and analysis are widely used in many fields and application scenarios.Time series historical data reflects the change pattern and trend,which can serve the application and decision in each application scenario to a certain extent.In this paper,we select the time series prediction problem in the atmospheric environment scenario to start the application research.In terms of data support,we obtain the data of nearly 3500 vehicles in some cities in China fromRunwoda Research Institute,focusing on the major pollutant emission data of non-road mobile machinery and high emission vehicles in Beijing and Bozhou,Anhui Province to build the dataset and conduct the time series prediction analysis experiments on them.This paper proposes a P-gLSTNet model,and uses Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average model(ARIMA),long and short-term memory(LSTM),and Prophet to predict and compare the emissions in the future period.The experiments are validated on four public data sets and one self-collected data set,and the mean absolute error(MAE),root mean square error(RMSE),and mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)are selected as the evaluationmetrics.The experimental results show that the proposed P-gLSTNet fusion model predicts less error,outperforms the backbone method,and is more suitable for the prediction of time-series data in this scenario.

Enhanced efficiency of the Sb_(2)Se_(3)thin-film solar cell by the anode passivation using an organic small molecular of TCTA

Antimony selenide(Sb_(2)Se_(3))is an emerging solar cell material.Here,we demonstrate that an organic small molecule of 4,4',4''-tris(carbazol-9-yl)-triphenylamine(TCTA)can efficiently passivate the anode interface of the Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cell.We fabricated the device by the vacuum thermal evaporation,and took ITO/TCTA(3.0 nm)/Sb_(2)Se_(3)(50 nm)/C60(5.0 nm)/Alq3(3.0 nm)/Al as the device architecture,where Alq3 is the tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminum.By introducing a TCTA layer,the open-circuit voltage is raised from 0.36 to 0.42 V,and the power conversion efficiency is significantly improved from 3.2%to 4.3%.The TCTA layer not only inhibits the chemical reaction between the ITO and Sb_(2)Se_(3)during the annealing process but it also blocks the electron diffusion from Sb_(2)Se_(3)to ITO anode.The enhanced performance is mainly attributed to the suppression of the charge recombination at the anode interface.

Interior and Exterior Decoration of Transition Metal Oxide Through Cu^(0)/Cu^(+) Co-Doping Strategy for High-Performance Supercapacitor

Although CoO is a promising electrode material for supercapacitors due to its high theoretical capacitance,the practical applications still suffering from inferior electrochemical activity owing to its low electrical conductivity,poor structural stability and inefficient nanostructure.Herein,we report a novel Cu0/Cu+co-doped CoO composite with adjustable metallic Cu0 and ion Cu+via a facile strategy.Through interior(Cu+)and exterior(Cu0)decoration of CoO,the electrochemical performance of CoO electrode has been significantly improved due to both the beneficial flower-like nanostructure and the synergetic effect of Cu0/Cu+co-doping,which results in a significantly enhanced specific capacitance(695 F g^(-1) at 1 A g^(-1))and high cyclic stability(93.4%retention over 10,000 cycles)than pristine CoO.Furthermore,this co-doping strategy is also applicable to other transition metal oxide(NiO)with enhanced electrochemical performance.In addition,an asymmetric hybrid supercapacitor was assembled using the Cu0/Cu+co-doped CoO electrode and active carbon,which delivers a remarkable maximal energy density(35 Wh kg^(-1)),exceptional power density(16 kW kg^(-1))and ultralong cycle life(91.5%retention over 10,000 cycles).Theoretical calculations further verify that the co-doping of Cu^(0)/Cu^(+)can tune the electronic structure of CoO and improve the conductivity and electron transport.This study demonstrates a facile and favorable strategy to enhance the electrochemical performance of transition metal oxide electrode materials.

W fuzz layers:very high resistance to sputtering under fusion-relevant He+irradiations

In this study,we have modeled the sputtering process of energetic He;ions colliding with W nano-fuzz materials,based on the physical processes,such as the collision and diffusion of energetic particles,sputtering and redeposition.Our modeling shows that the fuzzy nanomaterials with a large surface-to-volume ratio exhibit very high resistance to sputtering under fusion-relevant He;irradiations,and their sputtering yields are mainly determined by the thickness of fuzzy nano0materials,the reflection coefficients and mean free paths of energetic particles,surface sputtering yields of a flat base material,and the geometry of nano-fuzz.Our measurements have confirmed that the surface sputtering yield of a W nano-fuzz layer with the columnar geometry of nano-fuzz in cross-section is about one magnitude of order lower than the one of smooth W substrates.This work provides a complete model for energetic particles colliding with the nano-fuzz layer and clarifies the fundamental sputtering process occurring in the nano-fuzz layer.

Wormholelike mesoporous carbon supported Pt Ru catalysts toward methanol electrooxidation

Wormholelike mesoporous carbons (WMCs) with three different pore diameters (D-P), namely WMC-F7 (D-p = 8.5 nm), WMC-F30 (D-p =4.4 nm), and WMC-F0 (D-p =3.1 nm) are prepared via a modified sol-gel process. Then PtRu nanoparticles with the particle size (40 of 3.2 nm supported on WMCs are synthesized with a modified pulse microwave-assisted polyol method. It is found that the pore diameter of WMCs plays an important role in the electrochemical activity of PtRu toward alcohol electrooxidation reaction. PtRu/WMC-F7 with D-p > 2d(pt) exhibits the largest electrochemical surface area (ESA) and the highest activity toward methanol electrooxidation. With the decrease in Dp, PtRu/WMC-F30 and PtRu/WMC-F0 have much lower ESA and electrochemical activity, especially for the isopropanol electrooxidation with a larger molecular size. When D-p is more than twice d(pt), the mass transfer of reactants and electrolyte are easier, and thus more PtRu nanoparticles can be utilized and the catalysts activity can be enhanced.

Cerium refinement of grains and primary carbides during solidification of Cr_(4)Mo_(4)V bearing steel

The effect of cerium(Ce)on the solidification microstructure of Cr_(4)Mo_(4)V bearing steel was investigated via a combined experimental and theoretical method.With a trace amount(0.056 wt%)of Ce addition,the coarse columnar grains in as-cast microstructure transform into equiaxed ones,and the average diameter is reduced from 56 to 27μm.The network-like and bulky primary MC and M2C carbides at the interdendritic regions become disconnected and refined,and their volume percentage decreases from4.15 vol%to 2.1 vol%.Ce-inclusions acting as heterogeneous nucleation agents of prior-austenite grains and Ce atoms segregating at grain boundaries,both contribute to the refinement of grains.Thermodynamic calculations reveal that primary carbides are precipitated afterγ-austenite forms near the end of the solidification process.The modification of primary carbides in size and amount is mainly attributed to the isolated remaining melt separated by refinedγ-austenite grains in which the nucleation of carbides is promoted,while the growth is restrained owing to the less segregation of alloying elements.

Piezo-enhanced near infrared photocatalytic nanoheterojunction integrated injectable biopolymer hydrogel for anti-osteosarcoma and osteogenesis combination therapy

Preventing local tumor recurrence while promoting bone tissue regeneration is an urgent need for osteosarcoma treatment.However,the therapeutic efficacy of traditional photosensitizers is limited,and they lack the ability to regenerate bone.Here,a piezo-photo nanoheterostructure is developed based on ultrasmall bismuth/strontium titanate nanocubes(denoted as Bi/SrTiO_(3)),which achieve piezoelectric field-driven fast charge separation coupling with surface plasmon resonance to efficiently generate reactive oxygen species.These hybrid nanotherapeutics are integrated into injectable biopolymer hydrogels,which exhibit outstanding anticancer effects under the combined irradiation of NIR and ultrasound.In vivo studies using patient-derived xenograft models and tibial osteosarcoma models demonstrate that the hydrogels achieve tumor suppression with efficacy rates of 98.6%and 67.6%in the respective models.Furthermore,the hydrogel had good filling and retention capabilities in the bone defect region,which exerted bone repair therapeutic efficacy by polarizing and conveying electrical stimuli to the cells under mild ultrasound radiation.This study provides a comprehensive and clinically feasible strategy for the overall treatment and tissue regeneration of osteosarcoma.

Enhanced pyroptosis induction with pore-forming gene delivery for osteosarcoma microenvironment reshaping

Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor without efficient management for improving 5-year event-free survival.Immunotherapy is also limited due to its highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment(TME).Pore-forming gasdermins(GSDMs)-mediated pyroptosis has gained increasing concern in reshaping TME,however,the expressions and relationships of GSDMs with osteosarcoma remain unclear.Herein,gasdermin E(GSDME)expression is found to be positively correlated with the prognosis and immune infiltration of osteosarcoma patients,and low GSDME expression was observed.A vector termed as LPAD contains abundant hydroxyl groups for hydrating layer formation was then prepared to deliver the GSDME gene to upregulate protein expression in osteosarcoma for efficient TME reshaping via enhanced pyroptosis induction.Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations analysis proved that the hydroxyl groups increased LPAD hydration abilities by enhancing coulombic interaction.The upregulated GSDME expression together with cleaved caspase-3 provided impressive pyroptosis induction.The pyroptosis further initiated proinflammatory cytokines release,increased immune cell infiltration,activated adaptive immune responses and create a favorable immunogenic hot TME.The study not only confirms the role of GSDME in the immune infiltration and prognosis of osteosarcoma,but also provides a promising strategy for the inhibition of osteosarcoma by pore-forming GSDME gene delivery induced enhanced pyroptosis to reshape the TME of osteosarcoma.

Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of solid tumors with BRAF mutations

The BRAF gene is an important signaling molecule in human cells that is involved in the regulation of cell growth,differentiation,and survival.When the BRAF gene mutates,it can lead to abnormal activation of the signaling pathway,which promotes cell proliferation,inhibits cell apoptosis,and ultimately contributes to the occurrence and development of cancer.BRAF mutations are widely present in various cancers,including malignant melanoma,thyroid cancer,colorectal cancer,non-small cell lung cancer,and hairy cell leukemia,among others.BRAF is an important target for the treatment of various solid tumors,and targeted combination therapies,represented by BRAF inhibitors,have become one of the main treatment modalities for a variety of BRAF-mutation-positive solid tumors.

Research advances on the consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulosic biomass

Lignocellulosic biomass is an abundant and renewable bioresource for the production of biofuels and biochem-ical products.The classical biorefinery process for lignocellulosic degradation and conversion comprises three stages,i.e.,pretreatment,enzymatic saccharification,and fermentation.However,the complicated pretreatment process,high cost of cellulase production,and insufficient production performance of fermentation strains have restricted the industrialization of biorefinery.Consolidated bioprocessing(CBP)technology combines the pro-cess of enzyme production,enzymatic saccharification,and fermentation in a single bioreactor using a specific microorganism or a consortium of microbes and represents another approach worth exploring for the production of chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass.The present review summarizes the progress made in research of CBP technology for lignocellulosic biomass conversion.In this review,different CBP strategies in lignocellulose biore-finery are reviewed,including CBP with natural lignocellulose-degrading microorganisms as the chassis,CBP with biosynthetic microorganisms as the chassis,and CBP with microbial co-culturing systems.This review provides new perspectives and insights on the utilization of low-cost feedstock lignocellulosic biomass for production of biochemicals.

Reduction-responsive nucleic acid nanocarrier-mediated miR-22 inhibition of PI3K/AKT pathway for the treatment of patient-derived tumor xenograft osteosarcoma

miRNAs are important regulators of gene expression and play key roles in the development of cancer, including osteosarcoma. During the development of osteosarcoma, the expression of miR-22 is significantly downregulated, making miR-22 as a promising therapeutic target against osteosarcoma. To design and fabricate efficient delivery carriers of miR-22 into osteosarcoma cells, a hydroxyl-rich reduction-responsive cationic polymeric nanoparticle, TGIC-CA (TC), was developed in this work, which also enhanced the therapeutic effects of Volasertib on osteosarcoma. TC was prepared by the ring-opening reaction between amino and epoxy groups by one-pot method, which had the good complexing ability with nucleic acids, reduction-responsive degradability and gene transfection performance. TC/miR-22 combined with volasertib could inhibit proliferation, migration and promote apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells in vitro. The anti-tumor mechanisms were revealed as TC/ miR-22 and volasertib could inhibit the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway synergistically. Furthermore, this strategy showed outstanding tumor suppression performance in animal models of orthotopic osteosarcoma, especially in patient-derived chemo-resistant and chemo-intolerant patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, which reduced the risk of tumor lung metastasis and overcame drug resistance. Therefore, it has great potential for efficient treatment of metastasis and drug resistance of osteosarcoma by the strategy of localized, sustained delivery of miR-22 using the cationic nanocarriers combined with non-traditional chemotherapy drugs.

Engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for co-fermentation of glucose and xylose:Current state and perspectives

The use of non-food lignocellulosic biomass to produce ethanol fits into the strategy of a global circular economy with low dependence on fossil energy resources.Xylose is the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulosic hydrolysate,and its utilization in fermentation is a key issue in making the full use of raw plant materials for ethanol production and reduce production costs.Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the best ethanol producer but the organism is not a native xylose user.In recent years,great efforts have been made in the construction of xy-lose utilizing S.cerevisiae strains by metabolic and evolutionary engineering approaches.In addition,managing global transcriptional regulation works provides an effective means to increase the xylose utilization capacity of recombinant strains.Here we review the common strategies and research advances in the research field in order to facilitate the researches in xylose metabolism and xylose-based fermentation.

Recent Advances in Cadmium Sulfide-Based Photocatalysts for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

High-efficiency photocatalytic hydrogen evolution(PHE)relies on the development of inexpensive,stable,and efficient photocatalysts.Cadmium sulfide(CdS),as a typical binary metal sulfide,has attracted considerable research attention due to its negative conduction band position,narrow band gap for visible-light response,and strong driving force for PHE.However,the construction of CdSbased photocatalysts and the PHE rate still require improvement for practical applications.In this review,recent advances in CdS-based photocatalysts for PHE via water splitting are systematically summarized.First,the semiconductor properties of CdS,including the crystal and band structures,are briefly introduced.Afterward,the fundamental mechanisms of PHE using semiconductor photocatalysts via water splitting are discussed.Subsequently,the photoactivity of bare CdS with different morphologies and structures,CdS with cocatalyst loading,and CdS-based heterojunction photocatalysts are reviewed and discussed in detail.Finally,the challenges and prospects for exploring advanced CdS-based photocatalysts are provided.

Construction of interfacial dynamic bonds for high performance lignin/polymer biocomposites

Lignin is the largest natural aromatic biopolymer,but usually treated as industrial biomass waste.The development of lignin/polymer biocomposites can promote the high value utilization of lignin and the greening of polymers.However,the weak interfacial interaction between industrial lignin and polymer induces poor compatibility and serious agglomeration in polymer owing to the strong intermolecular force of lignin.As such,it is extremely difficult to prepare high performance lignin/polymer biocomposites.Recently,we proposed the strategy of in situ construction of interfacial dynamic bonds in lignin/polymer composites.By taking advantage of the abundant oxygen-containing polar groups of lignin,we inserted dynamic bonding connection such as hydrogen bonds and coordination bonds into the interphase between lignin and the polymer matrix to improve the interfacial interactions.Meanwhile,the natural amphiphilic structure characteristics of lignin were utilized to construct the hierarchical nanophase separation structure in lignin/polymer composites.The persistent problems of poor dispersity and interfacial compatibility of lignin in the polymer matrix were effectively solved.The lignin-modified polymer composites achieved simultaneously enhanced strength and toughness.This concise review systematically summarized the recent research progress of our group toward building high-performance lignin/polymer biocomposites through the design of interfacial dynamic bonds(hydrogen bonds,coordination bonds,and dynamic covalent bonds)between lignin and different polymer systems(polar plastics,rubber,polyurethane,hydrogels,and other polymers).Finally,the future development direction,main challenges,and potential solutions of lignin application in polymers were presented.

A trajectory summarisation gener

The semantic representation of the trajectory is conducive to enrich the content oftrajectory data mining. A trajectory summarisation generation method based on themobile robot behaviour analysis was proposed to realize the abstract expression andsemantic representation of the spatio-temporal motion features of the robot and itsenvironmental interaction state. First, the behavioural semantic modelling and representationof the mobile robot are completed by modelling the sub-trajectory andcalculating the topological behaviour (TOP). Second, Chinese word segmentation andsemantic slot filling methods are used to combine with hierarchical clustering to performbasic word extraction and classification for describing trajectory sentences. Then, thedescription language frame is extracted based on the TOP, and the final trajectorysummarisation is generated. The result shows that the proposed method can semanticallyrepresent robot behaviours with different motion features and topological features,extract two verb-frameworks for describing the sentences according to their topologicalfeatures, and dynamically adjust the syntactic structure for the different topological behavioursbetween the target and the environment. The proposed method can generatesemantic information of relatively high quality for spatio-temporal data and help tounderstand the higher-order semantics of moving robot behaviour.

Preparation of lignin/TiO2 nanocomposites and their application in aqueous polyurethane coatings

A simple method using a water soluble lignin quaternary ammonium salt (LQAS) and TiO2 has been developed for the preparation of lignin/TiO2 nanocomposites in an aqueous medium under mild conditions. The LQAS/TiO2 nanocomposites contain well-dispersed small particles with excellent ultraviolet (UV) shielding abilities and good compatibilities with waterborne polyurethane (WPU). When the LQAS/TiO2 nanocomposites were blended with WPU, the UV absorbance and the tensile ductility of the WPU increased significantly. The composite WPU hybrid film containing 6 wt-% LQAS/TiO2 nanocomposite had the highest visible light transmittance and had excellent ultraviolet aging properties. After 192 h of UV light irradiation, the tensile strength of the composite film was above 8 MPa and the elongation at break was 800%. This work highlights new possibilities for the utilization of alkali lignin.

Solidification microstructure of Cr4Mo4V steel forged in the semi-solid state

Semi-solid forging of iron-based alloys during solidification has unique characteristics distinct from those of the classical hot forging.With the aim of acquiring precise knowledge concerning the microstructural evolution of bearing steel Cr4 Mo4 V in this process,a series of semi-solid forging experiments were carried out in which samples were wrapped in a designed pure iron sheath.The effects of forging temperature and forging reduction on the grain morphology and liquid flow behavior were investigated,respectively.By forging solidifying metal(FSM),bulky primary dendrites were broken and spheroidal grains with an average shape factor of 0.87 were obtained at 1360?C.With the decreasing forging temperature to 1340?C,the microstructural homogeneity can be improved.On the other hand,it shows that a higher forging reduction(50%)is essential for the spheroidization of grains and elimination of liquid segregation.Those microstructural characteristics are related to different motion mechanisms of solid and liquid phases at different forging temperatures.Additionally,the effect of semi-solid forging on the eutectic carbides was also investigated,and the results demonstrate that the higher diffusion capacity and less liquid segregation jointly lower the large eutectic carbides and consequently cause its uniform distribution during FSM.
