The authors' observations also displayed a continuous arrangement process of nucleolar DNA, i.e., the extranucleolar DNA entered FC through the nucleolar organizer region (NOR) channel, then extended to the periphery of FC or to the border between FC and dense fibrillar component (DFC), and distributed along the periphery of FC. Thence, by passing through the NOR channel between FCs, the nucleolar DNA continued to transfer to other FCs and arranged in the same above_mentioned forms.展开更多

Methods Behavioral and event-related potential （ERP） data in a standard two-stimulus auditory oddball task were recorded and analyzed. Results This study replicated the previous results of culture-familiar music effect on Chinese subjects： the greater P300 amplitude in frontal areas in a culture-familiar music environment. At the same time, the difference between guqin music and piano music was observed in NI and later positive complex （LPC： including P300 and P500）： a relatively higher participation of right anterior-temporal areas in Chinese subjects. Conclusion The results suggest that the special features of ERP responses to guqin music are the outcome of Chinese tonal language environments given the similarity between Guqin＇s tones and Mandarin lexical tones.展开更多

The importance of the independent variables will be studied. The model by dropping independent variable one at a time is called a reduced model, and the size of the model is p-1. The non-centrality quantity is employed to measure the strength of influence on the true model for the independent variable dropped. The larger influence is defined to be more important in the true model. In this article, the goal is ranking the importance of the independent variables to study the structure of the models. It is important in the practical application. The confidence interval approach is used to rank the degrees of the influence of the independent variables in linear models and achieve the goal. An illustrative example is given, and the modeling procedure is studied to check the assumptions step by step in this example to make sure the assumptions satisfied in the true model. As a result, the proposed method can be used efficiently.展开更多

Our numerical results show that, in the favorable parameter spaces, the cross sections deviate distinctly from the predictions of the SM. The possible signals of the LRTH model can be detected via these processes at the LHC experiments.展开更多

When the local estimates are not lost too much, the authors propose an optimal distributed fusion algorithm which is equivalent to the corresponding centralized Kalman filtering fusion with complete communications even if the process noise does exist. When this condition is not satisfied, based on the above global optimality result and sensor data compression, the authors propose a suboptimal distributed fusion algorithm. Numerical examples show that this suboptimal algorithm still works well and significantly better than the standard distributed Kalman filtering fusion subject to packet loss even if the process noise power is quite large.展开更多

An average value of ten years was used to analyze the spatio-temporal variation in the agricultural hydrothermal conditions within a 1 km2 grid. Next, the inter-annual changing trend was simulated by regression analysis of the agricultural hydrothermal conditions. The results showed that the contour lines for temperature and accumulated temperatures(the daily mean temperature ≥0°C) increased significantly in most parts of China, and that the temperature contour lines had all moved northwards over the past 60 years. At the same time, the annual precipitation showed a decreasing trend, though more than half of the meteorological stations did not pass the significance test. However, the mean temperatures in the hottest month and the coldest month exhibited a decreasing trend from 1951 to 2010. In addition, the 0°C contour line gradually moved from the Qinling Mountains and Huaihe River Basin to the Yellow River Basin. All these changes would have a significant impact on the distribution of crops and farming systems. Although the mechanisms influencing the interactive temperature and precipitation changes on crops were complex and hard to distinguish, the fact remained that these changes would directly cause corresponding changes in crop characteristics.展开更多
