We propose a robust earthquake clustering method: the Bayesian Gaussian mixture model with nearest-neighbor distance (BGMM-NND) algorithm. Unlike the conventional nearest neighbor distance method, the BGMM-NND algorithm eliminates the need for hyperparameter tuning or reliance on fixed thresholds, o...

Automatic and reliable classification of human heart sounds is essential for self-monitoring heart conditions to improve life quality and public health. However, technology for self-monitoring of heart conditions is expensive, unavailable, and thus inaccessible to many people, especially in low-inco...

Weedy rice (Oryza sativa f. spontanea) is one of the three worst paddy weeds in most rice growing areas. The unexpected heavy infestation is derived from a persistence of soil seed bank of weedy rice, which the shattered seeds chiefly feed back to. Information on soil seed bank dynamics is imperativ...

Earthworms are critical for supporting soil health and microbial diversity and simultaneously maintaining a highly diverse gut microbiome. The earthworm is predominantly vulnerable to physical disturbance, yet how changes in earthworm diversity influence the richness and ecological network of soil-g...

Source inversion optimization using sensor observations is a key method for rapidly and accurately identifying unknown source parameters (source strength and location) in abrupt hazardous gas leaks. Sensor number and location distribution both play important roles in source inversion; however, their...

Chromatin accessibility plays a vital role in gene transcriptional regulation. However, the regulatory mechanism of chromatin accessibility, as well as its role in regulating crucial gene expression and kernel development in maize (Zea mays) are poorly understood. In this study, we isolated a maize...

ABSTRACT The optimized Easy and Zooming MTT (EZMTT)-based antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) method for Gram-negative bacteria demonstrated 5- to 20-fold enhanced sensitivity and improved the detection limit to approximately 1.13% ± 0.30% growth. This advancement enables the detection of dru...

Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF)‐related strokes are associated with disability and mortality. Stroke prevention with non‐vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) is the cornerstone of holistic management of AF. However, the safety and efficacy of...
