BiGA-YOLO: A Lightweight Object Detection Network Based on YOLOv5 for Autonomous Driving

Object detection in autonomous driving scenarios has become a popular task in recent years. Due to the high-speed movement of vehicles and the complex changes in the surrounding environment, objects of different scales need to be detected, which places high demands on the performance of the network model. Additionally, different driving devices have varying performance capabilities, and a lightweight model is needed to ensure the stable operation of devices with limited computing power. To address these challenges, we propose a lightweight network called BiGA-YOLO based on YOLOv5. We design the Ghost-Hardswish Conv module to simplify the convolution operations and incorporate spatial coordinate information into feature maps using Coordinate Attention. We also replace the PANet structure with the BiFPN structure to enhance the expression ability of features through different weights during the process of fusing multi-scale feature maps. Finally, we conducted extensive experiments on the KITTI dataset, and our BiGA-YOLO achieved a [email protected] of 92.2% and a [email protected]:0.95 of 68.3%. Compared to the baseline model YOLOv5, our proposed model achieved improvements of 1.9% and 4.7% in [email protected] and [email protected]:0.95, respectively, while reducing the model size by 15.7% and the computational cost by 16%. The detection speed was also increased by 6.3 FPS. Through analysis and discussion of the experimental results, we demonstrate that our proposed model is superior, achieving a balance between detection accuracy, model size, and detection speed

Preparation and evaluation of a novel monolithic column containing double octadecyl chains for reverse-phase micro high performance liquid chromatography.

A novel reverse-phase monolithic stationary phase containing double long alkyl chains was prepared based on the thermally initiated co-polymerization of 3-methylacryloyl-3-oxapropyl-3-(N,N-dioctadecylcarbamoyl)-propionate (AOD) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA) in the presence of 2-methyl-1-propanol and 1,4-butanediol as the selected porogens. The polymerization was carefully optimized and good permeability, stability and column efficiency were observed for the final monolithic columns. The column also showed good long term stability and reproducibility. The methylene selectivity demonstrates typical reversed phase characteristics. The optimized poly (AOD-co-EDMA) monolith exhibited good selectivity for a range of non-polar test analytes such as PAHs, tocopherols and alkylphenones. A good separation of intact proteins was also observed

Separation of deamidated peptides with mixed-mode chromatography using phospholipid-functionalized monolithic stationary phases

Deamidation of asparagine (Asn) residues of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) plays a pivotal role in the in vivo/vitro degradation or efficacy loss of biopharmaceuticals. However, a major challenge for MS analysis of deamidation of Asn-containing peptides in mAbs, is due to the fact that there is only a 1 Da mass shift between the native form (Asn residues) and deamidated forms (n-aspartyl (n-Asp) and isoaspartyl (isoAsp) residues with identical mass). Therefore, a chromatographic separation of the deamidated proteins and/or the peptides derived therefrom is needed prior to MS analysis. In this study, the monolithic column with various stationary phases, including reverse phase (RP), single phospholipid-functionalized and mixed phospholipid-functionalized monoliths, were prepared for the separation of the deamidation-sensitive signature peptide (IYPTNGYTR) of trastuzumab and its two deamidated products, n-Asp55 residue IYPTDGYTR and isoAsp55 residue IYPTisoDGYTR. Compared to the RP monolith, the phospholipid-functionalized monoliths provided mixed-mode interactions and exhibited better peak shape and separation selectivity. The effect of the parameters, including the type and concentration of buffer, temperature and pH value on the separation performance were investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the three peptides were fully separated on a mixed phosphocholine (PC) / phosphatidic acid (PA) functionalized monolith (poly (MDPC60PA40-co-EDMA)) due to the joint contribution of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. Therefore, the novel method based on the mixed phospholipids-functionalized monolithic column exhibited good potential for the analysis of deamidated peptides, which will be useful for the in-depth study of post-translational modifications of mAbs

Association between the Classification of the Genus of Batrachospermaceae (Rhodophyta) and the Environmental Factors Based on Machine Learning

Batrachospermaceae is the largest family of freshwater red algae, widely distributed around the world, and plays an important role in maintaining the balance of spring and creek ecosystems. The deterioration of the current global ecological environment has also destroyed the habitat of Batrachospermaceae. The research on the environmental factors of Batrachospermaceae and the accurate classification of the genus is necessary for the protection, restoration, excavation, and utilization of Batrachospermaceae resources. In this paper, the database of geographical distribution and environmental factors of Batrachospermaceae was sorted out, and the relationship between the classification of genus and environmental factors in Batrachospermaceae was analyzed based on two machine learning methods, random forest and XGBoost. The result shows: (1) The models constructed by the two machine learning methods can effectively distinguish the genus of Batrachospermaceae based on environmental factors; (2) The overall AUC score of the random forest model for the classification and prediction of the genus of Batrachospermaceae reached 90.41%, and the overall AUC score of the taxonomic prediction of each genus of Batrachospermaceae reached 85.85%; (3) Combining the two methods, it is believed that the environmental factors that affect the distinction of the genus of Batrachospermaceae are mainly altitude, average relative humidity, average temperature, and minimum temperature, among which altitude has the greatest influence. The results can further clarify the taxonomy of the genus in Batrachospermaceae and enrich the research on the differences in environmental factors of Batrachospermaceae

Infection and Colonization of Pathogenic Fungus Fusarium proliferatum in Rice Spikelet Rot Disease

Rice spikelet rot disease (RSRD), caused by Fusarium proliferatum, is an emerging disease. So far, the effects of diseased rice floral organs as well as the primary infection sites and stages of this pathogen are not determined. We investigated changes in the floral organs, along with the infection processes of the pathogen in plants inoculated with F. proliferatum and labelled with a green fluorescent protein during different growth stages of rice. The results showed that RSRD is not a systemic infectious disease, which has negative effects on the fertility of the infected rice. F. proliferatum caused brown colored anthers, crinkled pistils and ovaries, pollen grain deformities and anther indehiscence. The number of pollen grains on the stigmas decreased significantly in the infected spikelets, and the anther dehiscence and seed-setting rate successively declined by 69% and 73%, respectively, as a result of the infection. The initial infection stage occurred at the pollen cell maturity stage, and the primary invasion sites were determined to be the anthers of rice. It was noted that the pathogen mainly damaged the pollen cells, and with the exception of the filaments, proceeded to colonize the pistils and endosperm. Keywords: Fusarium proliferatum, rice spikelet rot disease, green fluorescent protein, infection process, infection stage, invasion sit

Construction of a Novel Semiautomated Electrochemical Sensor Array Platform and Its Application in Multiplexed Monitoring of Antibiotic Therapy

At present, traditional analytical methods suffer from issues such as complex operation, expensive equipment, and a lengthy testing time. Electrochemical sensors have shown great advantages and application potential as an alternative solution. In this study, we proposed a novel semiautomated electrochemical sensor array (SAESA) platform. The sensor array was fabricated using screen-printed technology with a tubular design where all electrodes were printed on the inner wall. The integration of the tubular sensor array with a pipet allows for a semiautomated process including sampling and rinsing, which simplifies operation and reduces overall time. Each working electrode in the tubular sensor array underwent distinct decoration to get specific sensing responses toward the target analytes in a mixture environment (e.g., blood samples). To demonstrate the applicability of the developed sensing platform for simultaneous multianalyte detection, we chose antibiotic treatment for inflammatory infection as a model scenario and continuously measured three biomarkers, namely, tigecycline (TGC), procalcitonin (PCT), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). The detection limits were 0.3 μM, 0.3 ng/L, and 2.76 U/L, respectively. The developed semiautomated electrochemical sensor array exhibits characteristics such as rapid and simple operation, portability, good selectivity, and excellent stability
