Aircraft Trajectory Prediction Based on Modified Interacting Multiple Model Algorithm

In order to realize the aircraft trajectory prediction,a modified interacting multiple model(M-IMM) algorithm is proposed,which is based on the performance analysis of the standard interacting multiple model(IMM) algorithm.In the proposed M-IMM algorithm,a new likelihood function is defined for the sake of updating flight mode probabilities,in which the influences of interacting to residual's mean error are taken into account and the assumption of likelihood function being a zero mean Gaussian function is discarded.Finally,the proposed M-IMM algorithm is applied to the simulation of the aircraft trajectory prediction,and the comparative studies are conducted to existing algorithms.The simulation results indicate the proposed M-IMM algorithm can predict aircraft trajectory more quickly and accurately.

Viscosity of aqueous ionic liquids analogues as a function of water content and temperature

Ionic liquids analogues known as Deep Eutectic Solvents （DESs） are gaining a surge of interest by the scientific community, and many applications involving DESs have been realized. Moisture content is one of the important factors that affects the physical and chemical characteristics of these fluids. In this work, the effect of mixing water with three common type III DESs on their viscosity was investigated within the water tool fraction range of （0-1） and at the temperature range （298.15-353.15 K）. Similar trends of viscosity variation with respect to molar composition and temperature were observed for the three studied systems, Due to the asymmetric geometry of the constituting molecules in these fluids, their viscosity could not be modeled effectively by the conventional Grunberg and Nissan model, and the Fang-He model was used to address this issue with excellent performance. All studied aqueous DES mixtures showed negative deviation in viscosity as compared to ideal mixtures, The degree of intermolecular interactions with water reaches a maximum at a composition of 30% aqueous DES solution. Reline, the most studied DES in the literature, showed the highest deviation. The informa- tion presented in this work on the viscosity of aqueous DES solutions may serve in tuning this important property for diverse industrial applications involving these novel fluids in fluid flow, chemical reactions, liquid-liquid separation and many more.

DDI-Transform:A neural network for predicting drug-drug interaction events

Drug-drug interaction(DDI)event prediction is a challenging problem,and accurate prediction of DDI events is critical to patient health and new drug development.Recently,many machine learning-based techniques have been proposed for predicting DDI events.However,most of the existing methods do not effectively integrate the multidimensional features of drugs and provide poor mitigation of noise to get effective feature information.To address these limitations,we propose a DDI-Transform neural network framework for DDI event prediction.In DDI-Transform,we design a drug structure information feature extraction module and a drug bind-protein feature extraction module to obtain multidimensional feature information.A stack of DDI-Transform layers in the DDI-Transform network module are then used for adaptive learning,thus adaptively selecting the effective feature information for prediction.The results show that DDI-Transform can accurately predict DDI events and outperform the state-of-the-art models.Results on different scale datasets confirm the robustness of the method.

Clustering Gene Expression Data Based on Predicted Differential Effects of GV Interaction

Microarray has become a popular biotechnology in biological and medical research. However, systematic and stochastic variabilities in microarray data are expected and unavoidable, resulting in the problem that the raw measurements have inherent “noise” within microarray experiments. Currently, logarithmic ratios are usually analyzed by various clustering methods directly, which may introduce bias interpretation in identifying groups of genes or samples. In this paper, a statistical method based on mixed model approaches was proposed for microarray data cluster analysis. The underlying rationale of this method is to partition the observed total gene expression level into various variations caused by different factors using an ANOVA model, and to predict the differential effects of GV （gene by variety） interaction using the adjusted unbiased prediction （AUP） method. The predicted GV interaction effects can then be used as the inputs of cluster analysis. We illustrated the application of our method with a gene expression dataset and elucidated the utility of our approach using an external validation.

Identification of Semaphorin 5A Interacting Protein by Applying Apriori Knowledge and Peptide Complementarity Related to Protein Evolution and Structure

In the post-genomic era, various computational methods that predict proteinprotein interactions at the genome level are available; however, each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, resulting in false predictions. Here we developed a unique integrated approach to identify interacting partner（s） of Semaphorin 5A （SEMA5A）, beginning with seven proteins sharing similar ligand interacting residues as putative binding partners. The methods include Dwyer and Root- Bernstein/Dillon theories of protein evolution, hydropathic complementarity of protein structure, pattern of protein functions among molecules, information on domain-domain interactions, co-expression of genes and protein evolution. Among the set of seven proteins selected as putative SEMA5A interacting partners, we found the functions of Plexin B3 and Neuropilin-2 to be associated with SEMA5A. We modeled the semaphorin domain structure of Plexin B3 and found that it shares similarity with SEMA5A. Moreover, a virtual expression database search and RT-PCR analysis showed co-expression of SEMA5A and Plexin B3 and these proteins were found to have co-evolved. In addition, we confirmed the interaction of SEMA5A with Plexin B3 in co-immunoprecipitation studies. Overall, these studies demonstrate that an integrated method of prediction can be used at the genome level for discovering many unknown protein binding partners with known ligand binding domains.
