Federated learning (FL) has recently emerged as a novel technique for training shared machine models in distributed fashion while preserving data privacy. However, the application of FL wireless networks poses unique challenge on mobile users (MUs)’ battery lifetime. In this letter, we aim to apply reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided power transfer facilitate sustainable FL-based net...

The detection of error information is an essential prerequisite of a feedback-based movement. This study investigated the differential behavior and neurophysiological mechanisms of a cyclic force-tracking task using error-reducing and error-enhancing feedback. The discharge patterns of a relatively large number of motor units (MUs) were assessed with custom-designed multi-channel surface electr...

Understanding the mechanisms driving lineage-specific evolution in both primates and rodents has been hindered by the lack of sister clades with a similar phylogenetic structure having high-quality genome assemblies. Here, we have created chromosome-level assemblies of the Mus caroli and Mus pahari genomes. Together with the Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus genomes, this set of rodent genomes...

Changing pulse repetition frequency or dose rate used for IMRT treatments can alter the number of monitor units (MUs) and the time required to deliver a plan. This work was done to develop a practical picture of the magnitude of these changes. We used Varian's Eclipse Treatment Planning System to calculate the number of MUs and beam-on times for a total of 40 different treatment plans across an...

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is able to achieve good target conformance with a limited dose to organs at risk (OARs); however, IMRT increases the irradiation volume and monitor units (MUs) required. The present study aimed to evaluate the use of an IMRT plan with fewer segments and MUs, while maintaining quality in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In the present study,...

The co-channel interference for mobile users (MUs) of a public safety network (PSN) in the co-existence heterogeneous networks such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and LTE-based railway (LRNs) needs thorough investigation, where UAVs are deployed base stations (BSs) cell-edge coverage enhancement. Moreover, LRN is employed train, its control signal demands high reliability low latency. It ne...

Mouse oocytes can be obtained via superovulation or using in vitro maturation although several factors, including genetic background, may affect response. Our previous studies have identified various mouse species as models to understand the role of sexual selection on the evolution of sperm traits and function. In order to do comparative studies of sperm-oocyte interaction, we sought reliable ...

With the high flexibility of supporting resource-intensive and time-sensitive applications, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted mobile edge computing (MEC) is proposed as an innovational paradigm to support users (MUs). As a promising technology, digital twin (DT) capable timely mapping physical entities virtual models, reflecting MEC network state in real-time. In this paper, we first propo...
