Pattern formation in mutation of “Game of Life”

This paper presents pattern formation in generalized cellular automata (GCA) by varying parameters of classic “game of life”. Different dynamic behaviors are classified. The influence of remembrance of dynamic behavior of GCA is also studied. Experiments show the emergence of the self-organizing patterns that is analogous with life forms at the edge of chaos, which consist of certain nontrivial structure and go through periods of growth, maturity and death. We describe these experiments and discuss their potential as alternative way for creating artificial life and generative art, and as a new method for pattern genesis.

An empirical study on classification of patent life patterns

With the theoretical framework of patent information life cycle,this research studies the relationship between patents' life patterns and technological development stages of the relevant field,using life status in patent information life cycle as the research dimension. Data of patents issued in the field of wireless charging are retrieved from the United States Patent and Trademark Office Library. Citation information about these patents is also collected. By analyzing the temporal citation count data of patent information,the patents' life patterns using the RSD/P classification method are classified. This study found that the emergence of different life patterns of patent information has strong connection with the technological stage in which the patent information is located,and sleeping beauty patents have high hidden values. In the stage of technological development,attention should be paid to the identification of non-stationary patents. Rapid identification of high-value patents,i. e.,patents with certain life pattern,is instrumental to accelerate the development of technologies. This study provides a viable approach for identifying high-value patents of emerging technologies through empirical research.

A Semi-Harmonic Frequency Pattern Organizes Local and Non-Local States by Quantum Entanglement in both EPR-Studies and Life Systems

A novel biophysical principle: the GM-model was revealed, describing an algorithm for coherent and non-coherent electromagnetic (EM) frequencies that either sustain or deteriorate life conditions. The particular frequency bands could be mathematically positioned on a Pythagorean scale, based on information distribution according to ratios of 2:3 in 1:2. The particular scale exhibits a core pattern of twelve eigenfrequency functions with adjacent self-similar patterns, according to octave hierarchy. In view of the current interest in coherency and entanglement in quantum biology, in the present paper, we report on a meta-analysis of 60 papers in physics that deal with the influence of electromagnetic frequencies on the promotion of entangled states in, so called, EPR experiments. Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen originated the EPR-correlation thought experiment for quantum-entangled particles, in which particles are supposed to react as one body. The meta-analyses of the EPR-experiments learned that entanglement, achieved in the experiments is real, and applied frequencies are located at discrete coherent configurations. Strikingly, all analysed EPR-data of the independent studies fit precisely in the derived scale of coherent frequency data and turned out to be virtually congruent with the above mentioned semi-harmonic EM-scale for living organisms. This implies that the same discrete coherent frequency pattern of EM quantum waves that determine local and non-local states is also applicable to biological order and that quantum entanglement is a prerequisite for life. The study may indicate that the implicate order of pilot-wave steering system, earlier postulated by David Bohm is composed of discrete entangled EM wave modalities, related to a pervading zero-point energy information field.

Impact of Tooth Surface Loss on the Quality of Life of Patients Seen in a Nigerian Teaching Hospital

Background: Tooth surface loss (TSL) is a progressive process arising from erosion, abrasion, attrition or abfraction. It can affect individuals of any age group: children, young adult, adults or the elderly and can compromise the health of individual tooth or the entire dentition leading to poor quality of life of the affected person. Objective: To evaluate the pattern of TSL among dental patients in a Nigerian Teaching Hospital and to assess the impact of TSL on their quality of life. Subjects and Methods: The study was a cross-sectional study among patients with TSL in a Nigerian Teaching Hospital. The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) questionnaire was used to obtain information on the impact of TSL on the quality of life of the participants. Data collected were analysed using IBM SPSS version 20. Chi-square test was used to assess association between types of TSL and quality of life of the patients. Level of significance was set at p ≤ 0.05. Results: One hundred and twenty-five patients (Males = 72;Females = 53) with tooth wear lesions participated in the study. The most common type of tooth surface loss was attrition (40%) followed by abrasion (23.2%). The highest impact of TSL on the quality of life was painful sensation strongly affecting 39 (31.2%) patients. This was followed by problem with chewing. There was no statistically significant relationship between patients’ quality of life and types of tooth surface loss. Conclusion: The most common negative impact of TSL on patient quality of life was painful sensation.

江苏水稻种植方式碳足迹和经济效益综合评价

系统分析水稻不同种植方式碳足迹及经济效益对水稻生产碳减排和发展低碳农业具有重要意义,目前在省级尺度上关于不同水稻种植方式碳足迹和经济效益综合评价的研究尚少见报道。基于江苏水稻农情调查数据,利用生命周期评价方法定量分析江苏水稻不同种植方式碳足迹及经济效益。结果表明,2016-2020年不同水稻种植方式单位面积碳足迹为11.28~14.39t·hm^(-2),单位产量碳足迹为1.30~1.52kg·kg^(-1),单位产值碳排放为0.49~0.58kg·yuan^(-1),单位面积碳足迹、单位产量碳足迹和单位产值碳足迹从大到小依次为抛秧水稻或手插水稻、机插水稻、直播水稻。机插水稻和手插水稻生产单位面积碳足迹随年份的增加呈下降趋势。机插水稻、手插水稻和直播水稻单位产量碳足迹随年份的变化呈下降趋势。不同水稻生产种植方式碳足迹中占比最大的是稻田甲烷排放,其次为氮肥施用导致的碳足迹、稻田氧化亚氮排放和灌溉用电导致的碳足迹。氮肥和灌溉用电是影响不同水稻种植方式碳足迹差异的主要驱动因素。不同水稻种植方式总收益为2.51×10^(3)~2.75×10^(3)yuan·hm^(-2),资源投入成本为1.88×10^(3)~1.99×10^(3)yuan·hm^(-2),碳排放成本为0.20×10^(3)~0.25×10^(3)yuan·hm^(-2),考虑碳排放的净收益(NI-CO_(2))为0.39×10^(3)~0.64×10^(3) yuan·hm^(-2)。机插水稻NI-CO_(2)低于其他三种水稻种植方式,这与机插水稻较高的总收益和较低的资源投入成本和较低的碳排放成本有关。综上所述,仅考虑碳排放,直播水稻是最为低碳的水稻种植方式,综合碳排放和经济效益,机插水稻优于手插、直播和抛秧水稻。

慢性病共病对中国老年人健康相关生命质量的影响研究

基于2018年中国健康与养老追踪调查数据,探讨慢性疾病数量及共病模式对老年人健康相关生命质量的影响。通过欧洲五维健康量表(EQ-5D)测量健康相关生命质量,分析老年人在五个维度(活动能力、自我照顾、日常活动、疼痛/不适和焦虑/沮丧)中的表现及各维度的等级,并计算综合得分来评估老年人的健康状态。结果发现,患有慢性共病数量越多的老年人,其健康效用值越低。心脏代谢型、呼吸系统型、内脏关节炎型和认知障碍型4种慢性病共病模式对老年人健康的影响程度差异具有显著性(p<0.05),其中,内脏关节炎型慢性病共病模式对老年人健康的影响最大。未来,应加强对患有多重慢性病尤其是患有内脏关节炎型共病模式的老年人的早期筛查,制定针对“多病共存”特点的老年慢性病健康管理方案和干预措施,为我国积极应对健康老龄化和主动健康提供策略建议。

松嫩草甸草原植物群落物种组成和多样性对刈割和长期放牧的响应

为明晰不同利用方式对松嫩草甸草原不同植物群落物种组成和多样性的影响,本研究通过对松嫩平原西部地带性植被草甸草原在刈割和长期放牧利用下两种典型群落-羊草(Leymus chinensis)群落和野古草(Arundinella hirta)群落的调查与分析,探究了两种利用方式对群落植物物种组成、重要值、生活型、数量特征及多样性等指标的影响。结果表明:刈割和长期放牧下羊草群落物种数为18种和21种,禾本科植物占比最高,分别为33.3%和45.45%;野古草群落物种数分别为39种和32种,禾本科植物占比为23.1%和21.9%。长期放牧增加羊草群落地面芽植物和野古草群落一年生植物占比,降低野古草群落地面芽植物占比。两种利用方式下两个群落饲用价值类型均以优良牧草的种类最多,占比分别为58.76%(刈割羊草群落)、53.33%(长期放牧羊草群落)、46.56%(刈割野古草群落)和46.63%(长期放牧野古草群落)。长期放牧显著降低了两个植物群落的盖度、高度和生物量(P <0.05)。与刈割相比,长期放牧下植物群落的Shannon-Wiener多样性指数和Simpson多样性指数均呈增加趋势。长期放牧下羊草群落和野古草群落S?rensen相似性指数更高,两个群落植物物种相似度更高;而Cody指数在刈割利用下更高,两个群落物种组成在刈割利用下的变化幅度更大。刈割和放牧对松嫩草甸草原不同植物群落的组成和多样性能够产生不同程度的影响,合理适度的利用方式和保护措施将更有利于对草原资源的可持续利用。
