Όλ¬Έ (μμ¬) -- μμΈλνκ΅ λνμ : μ¬νκ³Όνλν μ¬ννκ³Ό, 2021. 2. λ°κ²½μ.Nowadays, aging is a common global problem. Along with modernization and urbanization, not a few Chinese aging parents tend to support their adult children, which is known as the βanti-breeding modelβ. Most prior research focused on the responsibility of children on aging parents and did not discuss the contribution from aging parents to their adult children. This study intended to discuss both upward and downward direction in financial, instrumental, emotional support and the association between intergenerational support and the mental health(depression) of the Chinese elderly. Data from the 2015 Chinese Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey was used for analysis. The main results of the study were as follows. Intergenerational support is correlated with the mental health of the Chinese elderly, and differences exist in rural/urban areas. For rural-living elderly, the daily care from their younger generations is negatively associated with their mental health. However, older urban people are more likely to maintain mental health with the emotional support from their adult children. It is imperative to adjust measures to local conditions to ensure all Chinese seniors achieve βsuccessful agingβ or βactive agingβ.μ€λλ κ³ λ Ήνλ μ μΈκ³ 곡ν΅μ λ¬Έμ λ‘ λ μ€λ₯΄κ³ μλ€. νλν λ° λμνμ μν₯μΌλ‘ λλ€μμ μ€κ΅ λ

The Expanding Landscape of Alternative Splicing Variation in Human Populations.
Alternative splicing is a tightly regulated biological process by which the number of gene products for any given gene can be greatly expanded. Genomic variants in splicing regulatory sequences can disrupt splicing and cause disease. Recent developments in sequencing technologies and computational biology have allowed researchers to investigate alternative splicing at an unprecedented scale and resolution. Population-scale transcriptome studies have revealed many naturally occurring genetic variants that modulate alternative splicing and consequently influence phenotypic variability and disease susceptibility in human populations. Innovations in experimental and computational tools such as massively parallel reporter assays and deep learning have enabled the rapid screening of genomic variants for their causal impacts on splicing. In this review, we describe technological advances that have greatly increased the speed and scale at which discoveries are made about the genetic variation of alternative splicing. We summarize major findings from population transcriptomic studies of alternative splicing and discuss the implications of these findings for human genetics and medicine
Optimal Posted Prices for Online Cloud Resource Allocation
We study online resource allocation in a cloud computing platform, through a
posted pricing mechanism: The cloud provider publishes a unit price for each
resource type, which may vary over time; upon arrival at the cloud system, a
cloud user either takes the current prices, renting resources to execute its
job, or refuses the prices without running its job there. We design pricing
functions based on the current resource utilization ratios, in a wide array of
demand-supply relationships and resource occupation durations, and prove
worst-case competitive ratios of the pricing functions in terms of social
welfare. In the basic case of a single-type, non-recycled resource (i.e.,
allocated resources are not later released for reuse), we prove that our
pricing function design is optimal, in that any other pricing function can only
lead to a worse competitive ratio. Insights obtained from the basic cases are
then used to generalize the pricing functions to more realistic cloud systems
with multiple types of resources, where a job occupies allocated resources for
a number of time slots till completion, upon which time the resources are
returned back to the cloud resource pool
Explainable Multilayer Graph Neural Network for Cancer Gene Prediction
The identification of cancer genes is a critical, yet challenging problem in
cancer genomics research. Recently, several computational methods have been
developed to address this issue, including deep neural networks. However, these
methods fail to exploit the multilayered gene-gene interactions and provide
little to no explanation for their predictions. Results: In this study, we
propose an Explainable Multilayer Graph Neural Network (EMGNN) approach to
identify cancer genes, by leveraging multiple gene-gene interaction networks
and multi-omics data. Compared to conventional graph learning methods, EMGNN
learned complementary information in multiple graphs to accurately predict
cancer genes. Our method consistently outperforms existing approaches while
providing valuable biological insights into its predictions. We further release
our novel cancer gene predictions and connect them with known cancer patterns,
aiming to accelerate the progress of cancer researc
An investigation of the impact of co-existing bacteria on algal culture characteristics and submerged vibrational ultrafiltration performance
The complexity of algal culture characteristics has been noted as a critical challenge to understand and optimise separation efficiency for a sustainable algae harvesting technology. Previous studies have attempted to assess dissolved extracellular organic matter character and concentration, biomass density and their impact on the separation performance, with limited success. This project aims to extend previous research findings by providing an advanced algal culture characterisation that improves understanding of the impact of biomass composition, cell integrity, bioflocculation, and particulate and dissolved organic matter on submerged vibrational ultrafiltration (UF) performance and fouling mechanisms.
During the initial part of this study conducted with four algal species, it was found that different levels of co-existing bacteria were present in the algae culture, which positively correlated to bioflocculation activity. In turn, a better separation performance was observed for cultures with higher floc density during step-flux experiments. The cake layer was found to be the prominent fouling mechanism and was easily removed by simple physical rinsing. Transverse vibration of the membrane effectively alleviated both recoverable and irrecoverable fouling formed during algal harvesting using the submerged UF system.
Through controlling the initial bacterial:algal (B:A) ratio of a Chlorella vulgaris culture, it was found that a high bacteria abundance had an insignificant impact on algae growth, nutrient removal and cellular integrity. Despite different initial B:A ratios, all cultures reached an equilibrium ratio after nine days of cultivation. Nonetheless, the high initial B:A ratio led to algal cultures with a higher biofloc volume density and a higher concentration of organic matter with larger size, hydrophobic, protein and microbial fluorescent properties.
The algal culture with a high initial B:A ratio was further compared against the control in long-term filtration performance and fouling reversibility. Higher fouling rates were found in the culture at the later growth phase and the high initial B:A ratio. Development of a cake layer was again the dominant fouling mechanism, which consisted of a mixture of microbial cells, cell debris, particulate and hydrophobic organic matter, carbohydrate and proteins. Chemical cleaning was able to restore most membrane characteristics in contrast with physical backwashing and rinsing
Lost in Translation: When GPT-4V(ision) Can't See Eye to Eye with Text. A Vision-Language-Consistency Analysis of VLLMs and Beyond
Recent advancements in multimodal techniques open exciting possibilities for
models excelling in diverse tasks involving text, audio, and image processing.
Models like GPT-4V, blending computer vision and language modeling, excel in
complex text and image tasks. Numerous prior research endeavors have diligently
examined the performance of these Vision Large Language Models (VLLMs) across
tasks like object detection, image captioning and others. However, these
analyses often focus on evaluating the performance of each modality in
isolation, lacking insights into their cross-modal interactions. Specifically,
questions concerning whether these vision-language models execute vision and
language tasks consistently or independently have remained unanswered. In this
study, we draw inspiration from recent investigations into multilingualism and
conduct a comprehensive analysis of model's cross-modal interactions. We
introduce a systematic framework that quantifies the capability disparities
between different modalities in the multi-modal setting and provide a set of
datasets designed for these evaluations. Our findings reveal that models like
GPT-4V tend to perform consistently modalities when the tasks are relatively
simple. However, the trustworthiness of results derived from the vision
modality diminishes as the tasks become more challenging. Expanding on our
findings, we introduce "Vision Description Prompting," a method that
effectively improves performance in challenging vision-related tasks
