Five kinds of strategies are chosen to attack the two-layer networks and to recover the activity of the networks by increasing the inter-layer coupling strength. The results show that we can easily control the dying state effectively by a randomly attacked situation. We then investigate the recovery activity of the networks by increasing the inter-layer coupled strength. The optimal values of the inter-layer coupled strengths are found, which could provide a more effective range to recovery activity of complex networks. As the multilayer systems composed of active and inactive elements raise important and interesting problems, our results on the target inactivation and recovery in two-layer networks would be extended to different studies.展开更多

However, there are still some problems in this kind of researches, such as small target detection in complex environments is susceptible to background interference and poor detection results. To solve these issues, this study proposes a method which introduces the attention mechanism into the you only look once(YOLO) network. In addition, the amateur-produced mask dataset was created and experiments were conducted. The results showed that the detection effect of the proposed mothed is much better.展开更多

TCM is characterized by holistic theory, which emphasizes maintaining the balance of the patient's whole body using herbal formulae(fangji in Chinese) composed of mixtures of herbs with multiple bioactive ingredients. Because of the complex nature of these formulae, it is necessary to develop systematic methods to identify their bioactive ingredients and to clarify their mechanisms of action. With the rapid progress in bioinformatics, systems biology, and polypharmacology, "network pharmacology", which shifts the "one target, one drug" paradigm to the "network target, multi-component" strategy, has attracted the attention because it can not only reveal the underlying complex interactions between a herbal formula and cellular proteins but detect the influence of their interactions on the function and behavior of the system. Growing evidence shows that the network pharmacology strategy can be a powerful approach to modern research on TCM. The present paper focuses on the basis of network pharmacology and the recent progress in its methodology, illustrates its utility in screening bioactive ingredients and elucidating the mechanisms of action of TCM herbal formulae, analyzes its limitations and problems, and discusses its development direction and application prospects.展开更多

TCM has certain treatment advantages for patients suffering from various complex diseases. However, due to the complex nature of TCM, it remains difficult to unveil such holistic medicine by the current reductionism research strategies, which treat both herbal ingredients and targets in isolation. Recently, an emerging network pharmacology approach has been introduced to tackle this bottleneck problem. A TCM-derived novel therapeutic concept, "network target", which is different from the Western medicine's "onetarget" concept, has been proposed from China. The network target strategy is able to illustrate the complex interactions among the biological systems, drugs, and complex diseases from a network perspective, and thus provides an innovative approach to access ancient remedies in a precision manner and at a systematic level, which also highlights TCM's potential in current medical systems.展开更多
