Deep learning and genomic best linear unbiased prediction integration: An approach to identify potential nonlinear genetic relationships between traits by F. Shokor, P. Croiseau, H. Gangloff, R. Saintilan, T. Tribout, T. Mary-Huard, B.C.D. Cuyabano

“…Deep learning (DL) offers a promising alternative for capturing nonlinear genetic relationships due to its ability to identify complex patterns without prior assumptions about the data structure. We proposed a novel hybrid model that that combines both DL and GBLUP (DLGBLUP), which uses the output of the traditional GBLUP, and enhances its predicted genetic values (PGV) by accounting for nonlinear genetic relationships between traits using DL. …”

Symptom network analysis of pregnancy stress, depressive symptoms and quality of life: a cross-sectional study of pregnant women in Xinjiang, China, 2023–2024 by Sufeila Shalayiding, Weicui Meng, Xiaoting Wang, Bahedana Sailike, Ting Jiang

“…Methods From February 2023 to January 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to conduct a cross-sectional study of 1,349 pregnant women in a tertiary hospital in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China using the Patient Health Questionnaire Depressive Symptom Cluster and the Stress in Pregnancy and Health-Related Quality of Life Scale, to construct a network to perform network estimation, and to determine core nodes of the network structure based on the centrality indexes. Results Maternal pregnancy stress score (1.71 ± 0.55), depressive symptoms (15.36 ± 4.70), and quality of life had the highest social functioning score (74.45 ± 12.63) and the lowest physical functioning score (65.18 ± 26.75). …”

Orientaciones para crear patios activos en los centros escolares (Orientations to create active playgrounds in schools) by Mª Isabel Salas Sánchez, Josep Vidal-Conti

“…The interest of this study consists primarily in specifying the main aspects that should be considered when carrying out changes in the organization and/or structure of school playground areas. The objectives which this article pursues are mainly three.  1) to show evidence from different studies of the importance of recess time in schools.  2) to establish a "road map" to carry out transformations which would help to create active and dynamic spaces contributing, above all, to the improvement of students' health and therefore allowing the teaching staff to carry out the project or program of change (given the particularities and singularities of each one of the centers) and 3) to define some transversal proposals which can be introduced within this space and time. …”

Productivity and ecological functions of naturally regrown pine forests of the Ukrainian Polissia by Petro Lakyda, Volodymyr Blyshchyk

“…Based on the indicators of basic wood density (341 kg·(m3)-1), the studied stands have a slightly lower density compared to other pine forests of the Ukrainian Polissia zone, which are characterized by high moisture content in wood at a young age, soil conditions (structure, mechanical composition, fertility), which has a significant impact on the formation of late wood, and, consequently, on its density. …”

Research on Fast Spectrum Resonance Calculation Method Based on Subgroup Method by YU Rongjun, ZHAO Shouzhi, YANG Rui, SONG Yingyun, ZHANG Chong, HUO Xingkai

“…Resonance calculation is a necessary part of the two-step or three-step physical calculation, and the traditional method is usually based on the geometric simplification model in dealing with the fast spectrum resonance calculation problem, which cannot accurately match the advantage of the MOC on the fine geometric processing ability, especially with the rapid development of advanced reactor research in recent years, many reactor schemes with fine structure have been proposed, including a large number of core schemes characterized by fast spectrum, for this type of problem, the traditional method is difficult to give high-precision multi-group constants under fine geometry. …”

Modeling the Meaning of Individual Words Using Cultural Cartography and Keystroke Dynamics by Tatiana A. Litvinova, Olga V. Dekhnich

“…The material of the study is a newly developed dataset containing associative reactions to the keywords of Russian culture, anonymized data about the informants, as well as the reaction time while producing associations measured using a program that records keystrokes. The proposed research methodology includes both the existing approaches (automatic extraction of relations from texts based on data from language models and methods of vector semantics, i.e., “cultural cartography using word embeddings”) and a new list of features developed by the authors to describe individual differences in the meaning of a word based on the data from neurobiology about the meaning structure of word. …”
