Constraints on large-extra-dimensions model through 125 GeV Higgs pair production at the LHC
Based on the analysis of 5 fb^-1 of data at the LHC, the ATLAS and CMS
collaborations have presented evidence for a Higgs boson with a mass in the 125
GeV range. We consider the 125 GeV neutral Higgs pair production process in the
context of large-extra-dimensions (LED) model including the Kaluza-Klein
(KK)excited gravitons at the LHC. We consider the standard model(SM) Higgs pair
production in gluon-gluon fusion channel and pure LED effects through graviton
exchange as well as their interferences. It is shown that such interferences
should be included; the LED model raises the transverse momentum (Pt)and
invariant mass (M_HH) distributions at high scales of Pt and M_HH of the Higgs
pair production. By using the Higgs pair production we could set the discovery
limit on the cutoff scale M_S up to 6 TeV for delta = 2 and 4.5 TeV for delta =

Local generation of hydrogen for enhanced photothermal therapy.
By delivering the concept of clean hydrogen energy and green catalysis to the biomedical field, engineering of hydrogen-generating nanomaterials for treatment of major diseases holds great promise. Leveraging virtue of versatile abilities of Pd hydride nanomaterials in high/stable hydrogen storage, self-catalytic hydrogenation, near-infrared (NIR) light absorption and photothermal conversion, here we utilize the cubic PdH0.2 nanocrystals for tumour-targeted and photoacoustic imaging (PAI)-guided hydrogenothermal therapy of cancer. The synthesized PdH0.2 nanocrystals have exhibited high intratumoural accumulation capability, clear NIR-controlled hydrogen release behaviours, NIR-enhanced self-catalysis bio-reductivity, high NIR-photothermal effect and PAI performance. With these unique properties of PdH0.2 nanocrystals, synergetic hydrogenothermal therapy with limited systematic toxicity has been achieved by tumour-targeted delivery and PAI-guided NIR-controlled release of bio-reductive hydrogen as well as generation of heat. This hydrogenothermal approach has presented a cancer-selective strategy for synergistic cancer treatment
Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization Driven by Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)
Recently, increasing works have proposed to drive evolutionary algorithms
using machine learning models. Usually, the performance of such model based
evolutionary algorithms is highly dependent on the training qualities of the
adopted models. Since it usually requires a certain amount of data (i.e. the
candidate solutions generated by the algorithms) for model training, the
performance deteriorates rapidly with the increase of the problem scales, due
to the curse of dimensionality. To address this issue, we propose a
multi-objective evolutionary algorithm driven by the generative adversarial
networks (GANs). At each generation of the proposed algorithm, the parent
solutions are first classified into real and fake samples to train the GANs;
then the offspring solutions are sampled by the trained GANs. Thanks to the
powerful generative ability of the GANs, our proposed algorithm is capable of
generating promising offspring solutions in high-dimensional decision space
with limited training data. The proposed algorithm is tested on 10 benchmark
problems with up to 200 decision variables. Experimental results on these test
problems demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm
A Deep Embedding Model for Co-occurrence Learning
Co-occurrence Data is a common and important information source in many
areas, such as the word co-occurrence in the sentences, friends co-occurrence
in social networks and products co-occurrence in commercial transaction data,
etc, which contains rich correlation and clustering information about the
items. In this paper, we study co-occurrence data using a general energy-based
probabilistic model, and we analyze three different categories of energy-based
model, namely, the , and models, which are able to capture
different levels of dependency in the co-occurrence data. We also discuss how
several typical existing models are related to these three types of energy
models, including the Fully Visible Boltzmann Machine (FVBM) (), Matrix
Factorization (), Log-BiLinear (LBL) models (), and the Restricted
Boltzmann Machine (RBM) model (). Then, we propose a Deep Embedding Model
(DEM) (an model) from the energy model in a \emph{principled} manner.
Furthermore, motivated by the observation that the partition function in the
energy model is intractable and the fact that the major objective of modeling
the co-occurrence data is to predict using the conditional probability, we
apply the \emph{maximum pseudo-likelihood} method to learn DEM. In consequence,
the developed model and its learning method naturally avoid the above
difficulties and can be easily used to compute the conditional probability in
prediction. Interestingly, our method is equivalent to learning a special
structured deep neural network using back-propagation and a special sampling
strategy, which makes it scalable on large-scale datasets. Finally, in the
experiments, we show that the DEM can achieve comparable or better results than
state-of-the-art methods on datasets across several application domains
