    Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction has become a foundational task in drug repositioning, polypharmacology, drug discovery, as well as drug resistance and side-effect prediction. DTI identification using machine learning is gaining popularity in these research areas. Through the years, numerous deep learning methods have been proposed for DTI prediction. Nevertheless, prediction accuracy and efficiency remain key challenges. Pharmaco-electroencephalogram (pharmaco-EEG) is considered valuable in the development of central nervous system-active drugs. Quantitative EEG analysis demonstrates high reliability in studying the effects of drugs on the brain. Earlier preclinical pharmaco-EEG studies showed that different types of drugs can be classified according to their mechanism of action on neural activity. Here, we propose a convolutional neural network for EEG-mediated DTI prediction. This new approach can explain the mechanisms underlying complicated drug actions, as it allows the identification of similarities in the mechanisms of action and effects of psychotropic drugs

    Introduction Numerical simulations (Lemb ege and Dawson, 1987; Lemb ege and Savoini, 1992; Hellinger et al., 2002) revealed a strongly nonstationary behavior of quasi-perpendicular shocks with the parameters relevant in the heliospheric and astrophysical contexts (Shimada and Hoshino, 2000; Schmitz et al., 2002; Scholer et al., 2003). This behavior is characterized by a cyclical reformation on the spatio-temporal scales of the incoming proton gyroperiod. Hellinger et al. (2002) have shown that the existence of the self-reformation process is very sensitive to Alfven Mach number M A and proton upstream # p in case of strictly perpendicular shocks (cf. Hada et al., 2003). Recent reviews (Hellinger, 2003; Lemb ege et al., 2004) stress the importance of the selfreformation process for the shock properties. Scholer et al. (2003) pointed out that the nonstationary self-reformation process switches off some acceleration mechanisms, for example the shock surfing mechanism, which has been pro

    Reconstruction of interactions in the ProtoDUNE-SP detector with Pandora

    International audienceThe Pandora Software Development Kit and algorithm libraries provide pattern-recognition logic essential to the reconstruction of particle interactions in liquid argon time projection chamber detectors. Pandora is the primary event reconstruction software used at ProtoDUNE-SP, a prototype for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment far detector. ProtoDUNE-SP, located at CERN, is exposed to a charged-particle test beam. This paper gives an overview of the Pandora reconstruction algorithms and how they have been tailored for use at ProtoDUNE-SP. In complex events with numerous cosmic-ray and beam background particles, the simulated reconstruction and identification efficiency for triggered test-beam particles is above 80% for the majority of particle type and beam momentum combinations. Specifically, simulated 1 GeV/cc charged pions and protons are correctly reconstructed and identified with efficiencies of 86.1±0.6\pm0.6% and 84.1±0.6\pm0.6%, respectively. The efficiencies measured for test-beam data are shown to be within 5% of those predicted by the simulation

    International audienceLiquid argon time projection chamber detector technology provides high spatial and calorimetric resolutions on the charged particles traversing liquid argon. As a result, the technology has been used in a number of recent neutrino experiments, and is the technology of choice for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). In order to perform high precision measurements of neutrinos in the detector, final state particles need to be effectively identified, and their energy accurately reconstructed. This article proposes an algorithm based on a convolutional neural network to perform the classification of energy deposits and reconstructed particles as track-like or arising from electromagnetic cascades. Results from testing the algorithm on experimental data from ProtoDUNE-SP, a prototype of the DUNE far detector, are presented. The network identifies track- and shower-like particles, as well as Michel electrons, with high efficiency. The performance of the algorithm is consistent between experimental data and simulation

    Scintillation light detection in the 6-m drift-length ProtoDUNE Dual Phase liquid argon TPC

    DUNE is a dual-site experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies, neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches. ProtoDUNE Dual Phase (DP) is a 6 ×\times  6 ×\times  6 m3^3 liquid argon time-projection-chamber (LArTPC) that recorded cosmic-muon data at the CERN Neutrino Platform in 2019–2020 as a prototype of the DUNE Far Detector. Charged particles propagating through the LArTPC produce ionization and scintillation light. The scintillation light signal in these detectors can provide the trigger for non-beam events. In addition, it adds precise timing capabilities and improves the calorimetry measurements. In ProtoDUNE-DP, scintillation and electroluminescence light produced by cosmic muons in the LArTPC is collected by photomultiplier tubes placed up to 7 m away from the ionizing track. In this paper, the ProtoDUNE-DP photon detection system performance is evaluated with a particular focus on the different wavelength shifters, such as PEN and TPB, and the use of Xe-doped LAr, considering its future use in giant LArTPCs. The scintillation light production and propagation processes are analyzed and a comparison of simulation to data is performed, improving understanding of the liquid argon properties.DUNE is a dual-site experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies, neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches.
