Unification of Flavor SU(3) Analyses of Heavy Hadron Weak Decays
Analyses of heavy mesons and baryons hadronic charmless decays using the
flavor SU(3) symemtry can be formulated in two different forms. One is to
construct the SU(3) irreducible representation amplitude (IRA) by decomposing
effective Hamiltonian, and the other is to draw the topological diagrams (TDA).
In the flavor SU(3) limit, we study various ,
decays, and two-body nonleptonic decays of beauty/charm baryons, and
demonstrate that when all terms are included these two ways of analyzing the
decay amplitudes are completely equivalent. Furthermore we clarify some
confusions in drawing topological diagrams using different ways of describing
beauty/charm baryons.Comment: 36 pages, 6 figures, 16 table
Semi-supervised Learning with Deterministic Labeling and Large Margin Projection
The centrality and diversity of the labeled data are very influential to the
performance of semi-supervised learning (SSL), but most SSL models select the
labeled data randomly. This study first construct a leading forest that forms a
partially ordered topological space in an unsupervised way, and select a group
of most representative samples to label with one shot (differs from active
learning essentially) using property of homeomorphism. Then a kernelized large
margin metric is efficiently learned for the selected data to classify the
remaining unlabeled sample. Optimal leading forest (OLF) has been observed to
have the advantage of revealing the difference evolution along a path within a
subtree. Therefore, we formulate an optimization problem based on OLF to select
the samples. Also with OLF, the multiple local metrics learning is facilitated
to address multi-modal and mix-modal problem in SSL, especially when the number
of class is large. Attribute to this novel design, stableness and accuracy of
the performance is significantly improved when compared with the
state-of-the-art graph SSL methods. The extensive experimental studies have
shown that the proposed method achieved encouraging accuracy and efficiency.

Structural basis for DNMT3A-mediated de novo DNA methylation.
DNA methylation by de novo DNA methyltransferases 3A (DNMT3A) and 3B (DNMT3B) at cytosines is essential for genome regulation and development. Dysregulation of this process is implicated in various diseases, notably cancer. However, the mechanisms underlying DNMT3 substrate recognition and enzymatic specificity remain elusive. Here we report a 2.65-ångström crystal structure of the DNMT3A-DNMT3L-DNA complex in which two DNMT3A monomers simultaneously attack two cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) dinucleotides, with the target sites separated by 14 base pairs within the same DNA duplex. The DNMT3A-DNA interaction involves a target recognition domain, a catalytic loop, and DNMT3A homodimeric interface. Arg836 of the target recognition domain makes crucial contacts with CpG, ensuring DNMT3A enzymatic preference towards CpG sites in cells. Haematological cancer-associated somatic mutations of the substrate-binding residues decrease DNMT3A activity, induce CpG hypomethylation, and promote transformation of haematopoietic cells. Together, our study reveals the mechanistic basis for DNMT3A-mediated DNA methylation and establishes its aetiological link to human disease
Comprehensive Utilization of the Water Resources in small Watershed
AbstractThe water problem is a vital question which relates to the sustainable development of the national economy. And the water resource is also a kind of comprehensive natural resources which has a variety of use values and can supply with the water needs for many sections, which involves economy, resource, science and technology, ecosystem and environment. Sustainable utilization is a better form for the water resources. This paper gives a brief introduction about the technology of comprehensive utilization of the water resources in small watershed
