Summary: An important step in genome annotation is identifying protein-coding regions, and we propose signals based on average mutual information for accurate identification of coding and noncoding sequences. These signals are robust across species, phyla, and kingdom, making them suitable for species-agnostic genome annotation algorithms to identify protein-coding regions, which can aid in gene identification.

Summary: Cross-modal clustering aims to improve clustering accuracy by exploiting correlations across modalities. We propose a novel deep correlated information bottleneck (DCIB) method to tackle the challenges of capturing correlations and eliminating modality-private information. DCIB treats the CMC task as a two-stage data compression procedure, preserving correlations while eliminating modality-private information. Experimental results on four cross-modal datasets validate the superiority of DCIB.

Summary: This study focuses on refining the concept of Maxwell's demon to explore the limit of energy dissipation in open systems, uncovering a previously unexplored set of fluctuation theorems. These theorems reveal the existence of an intrinsic nonequilibrium state in the system, guided by nonnegative demon-induced dissipative information. The analysis suggests that the bounds of both work and heat in the system are tighter than previously predicted, and proposes a potential experimental test to verify these boundaries.

Summary: Buildings in rural areas of Morocco present diverse shapes and sizes, posing challenges for accurate detection using optical satellite imagery and traditional image processing techniques. This study aims to detect and map settlements in the Souss-Massa region using deep learning algorithms with Sentinel-2 satellite images. The performance of the convolutional neural network architecture UNet was tested, followed by an evaluation of the impact of filters number on UNet's performance. The deep Residual UNet (ResUNet) was also implemented. Special metrics, including precision, recall, F1-score, and the ROC curve, were used to evaluate the quality of the tested models. The UNet with an increased number of filters achieved a precision of 87% and an F1-score of 54%, outperforming other algorithms such as UNet and ResUNet.

Summary: Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are important for modeling and understanding various real systems. However, in the life sciences, time-delayed differential equations (DDEs) are often required for mathematical modeling. These models involve time delays that represent the manifestation of hidden processes, such as incubation periods or immune periods. Stochastic delay differential equations (SDDEs) provide a more realistic approximation to these models due to the uncertainties in biological systems. This study examines the predator-prey system using three types of time-delay models, revealing the significance of stochasticity and the magnitude of the delay in determining the system dynamics.

Summary: Biological systems strive to maximize self-maintenance and adaptability by establishing stable non-equilibrium states that organize the fluxes of matter and energy and control metabolic processes. These states are realized in autopoietic structures that operate based on biological codes. The principle of thermodynamic buffering optimizes metabolic fluxes, and in developing systems, the principle transforms into increasing external work. Bauer's concept of the stable non-equilibrium state places thermodynamics within the framework of internal biological causality, providing a relational theory of biological thermodynamics.
