The major problem is concerned in to find the best subset of variables that better represents the compounds. These variables are obtained by a spectrophotometer device. This device measures hundreds of correlated variables related with physicocbemical properties and that can be used to estimate the component of interest. The problem is the selection of a subset of informative and uncorrelated variables that help the minimization of prediction error. Classical algorithms select a subset of variables for each compound considered. In this work we propose the use of the SPEA-II (strength Pareto evolutionary algorithm II). We would like to show that the variable selection algorithm can selected just one subset used for multiple determinations using multiple linear regressions. For the case study is used wheat data obtained by NIR (near-infrared spectroscopy) spectrometry where the objective is the determination of a variable subgroup with information about E protein content (%), test weight (Kg/HI), WKT (wheat kernel texture) (%) and farinograph water absorption (%). The results of traditional techniques of multivariate calibration as the SPA (successive projections algorithm), PLS (partial least square) and mono-objective genetic algorithm are presents for comparisons. For NIR spectral analysis of protein concentration on wheat, the number of variables selected from 775 spectral variables was reduced for just 10 in the SPEA-II algorithm. The prediction error decreased from 0.2 in the classical methods to 0.09 in proposed approach, a reduction of 37%. The model using variables selected by SPEA-II had better prediction performance than classical algorithms and full-spectrum partial least-squares.展开更多

The development of Cas9 derivatives further expanded the toolbox of CRISPR- Cas9 based genome editing kit. However, therapeutic transla- tion of the CRISPR-Cas9 system in vivo is severely impeded by the absence of an appropriate delivery carrier. The complex- ity and high molecular weight of the CRISPR-Cas9 system, together with the physiological barriers for nucleus targeted cargo transportation have made it a huge challenge for in vivo therapeutic CRISPR-Cas9 delivery. Currently, the main stream carriers for systemic delivery of CRISPR-Cas9 are vi- ral based, such as adeno-associated virus. However, the safety concerns surrounding viral vectors call for the development of non-viral nanocarriers. In this review, we survey the recent advances in the development of non-viral delivery systems for CRISPR-Cas9. Challenges and future directions in this field are also discussed.展开更多
