Summary: This paper proposes a novel possibilistic classification algorithm using support vector machines (SVMs) to effectively handle uncertain information and improve classification performance. The algorithm aims at finding a maximal-margin fuzzy hyperplane based on possibility theory and solves a fuzzy mathematical optimization problem. The proposed algorithm retains the advantages of fuzzy set theory and SVM theory, and it is more robust for handling outliers. Experimental results demonstrate the satisfactory generalization accuracy and ability to describe inherent vagueness in the given dataset.

Summary: Traditional support vector machines (SVMs) are sensitive to outliers and corrupted data, leading to a deterioration in classification performance. This article proposes an efficient Support Matrix Machine that performs matrix recovery and feature selection simultaneously. It can handle high-dimensional data with corrupted columns and recover an intrinsic matrix of higher rank under incoherence and ambiguity conditions. The objective function combines matrix recovery, low rank, and joint sparsity, and the method leverages structural information and intrinsic data structure. Experimental results show significant improvements in BCI, face recognition, and person identification datasets, especially in the presence of outliers.

Summary: When dealing with real-world recognition problems, it is often necessary to have classification methods that can handle unknown classes and reject samples not seen during training. Existing classifiers are mainly designed for closed-set scenarios, where all test samples are assumed to belong to known classes. However, in open-set scenarios, a test sample may not belong to any known class and must be properly rejected as unknown.

Summary: Ranging solutions for IoT localization applications aim to achieve high accuracy at low cost using Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology. However, accurately measuring the distance with BLE poses challenges due to multipath components and model imperfections. To address this, we propose a data-driven SVR method that achieves decimeter-level accuracy with single antenna devices, outperforming the model-based MUSIC method which requires multiple antennas. Our method also proves robust in various multipath environments and offers computational complexity reduction compared to MUSIC.

Summary: This paper addresses the problem of unstable classification results caused by randomly generated random projection matrix. To solve this problem, a Tighter Random Projection-oriented entropy-weighted ensemble algorithm is proposed for classifying hyperspectral remote sensing images. The algorithm selects a random projection matrix based on the separable information of a single class, and measures the projection result using the degree of separability to obtain the low-dimensional image with optimal separability. The Minimum Distance classifier is then used to calculate the distance matrix, and the weight of the distance matrix is considered in ensemble classification using information entropy.

Summary: A novel spatial-spectral channel attention neural network (SSCAN) is proposed to improve the performance of land cover change detection (LCCD) with remote-sensed images. The SSCAN employs spatial channel attention module and convolution block attention module to process pre- and post-event images, amplifying the change magnitude among the changed areas and minimizing the change magnitude among the unchanged areas. Comparative experiments show that the proposed network outperforms other methods in terms of accelerating network convergence speed, reinforcing learning efficiency, and improving LCCD performance.

Summary: In this study, the Pixel Value Order (PVO) technology is applied to encrypted reversible data hiding, combined with the secret image sharing (SIS) scheme. A novel scheme called PVO, Chaotic System, Secret Sharing-based Reversible Data Hiding in Encrypted Image (PCSRDH-EI) is proposed, which satisfies the (k,n) threshold property. The image is partitioned into N shadow images, and reconstruction is feasible when at least k shadow images are available. Empirical tests show that PCSRDH-EI outperforms the state-of-the-art and achieves a maximum embedding rate of 5.706 bpp, demonstrating superior encryption effects.

Summary: Spectral unmixing (SU) is an important preprocessing task for handling hyperspectral images (HSI), but its process is affected by nonlinearity and spectral variability (SV). Currently, SV is considered within the framework of linear mixing models (LMM), which ignores the nonlinear effects in the scene. To address that issue, we investigate the effects of SV on SU and propose an augmented generalized bilinear model to address spectral variability (AGBM-SV).

Summary: This study aims to explore the anti-colorectal cancer (CRC) effect of Erigeron breviscapus injection (EBI) and its underlying mechanism. The results demonstrate that EBI significantly inhibits the proliferation of CRC cells, suppresses the migration and invasion of SW620 cells, and exerts its antitumor effect through inducing necroptosis of tumor cells. Furthermore, EBI activates the RIPK3/MLKL signaling pathway and promotes intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, enhancing its anticancer effect.

Summary: This article proposes a novel sparse key-point distance (SKPD) method based on adaptive region key-points extraction for measuring the change magnitude between bitemporal VHR_RSIs, aiming at land cover change detection (LCCD). The proposed approach includes three steps: exploring spatial-contextual information using an adaptive region generation algorithm, sparsely representing the adaptive region with the box-whisker plot theory, and defining a piecewise distance to measure the change magnitude between the bitemporal images. Experimental results based on four pairs of real VHR_RSIs and four state-of-the-art methods effectively demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach in achieving LCCD with VHR_RSIs, with improvements in overall accuracy ranging from 5.25% to 22.24%.

Summary: The pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is multifactorial and composite, with lipid metabolism-induced lipotoxicity being one of the main risk factors. Atorvastatin (AT), the most widely prescribed lipid-lowering drug, has beneficial effects on NAFLD treatment. However, its low absorption rate in the gut and potential disruption of gut flora limit its applications. In this study, a prebiotic-based AT nanoamorphous (PANA) was developed to enhance AT efficacy against NAFLD by improving liver and gut health. Oral administration of PANA resulted in increased drug accumulation in the liver tissue and restored gut health, as indicated by reconstructed gut flora, improved intestinal immunity, barrier integrity, and inflammation. Compared to AT, PANA treatment showed significant inhibition of weight gain and fat deposition, decreased plasma lipid levels, and alleviated hepatic steatosis and liver inflammation. Transcriptome analysis suggested improved immunity and inflammation as potential mechanisms. This study presents a promising strategy for NAFLD treatment using nanotechnology and functional biomaterials in synergy.
