Summary: In this paper, the authors propose a structure-context complementary network (SCC-Net) for human pose estimation, which consists of an enhanced attention mechanism and an atrous convolution-based module. The proposed modules, namely cross-coordinate attention bottleneck (CCAB) and waterfall residual atrous pooling (WRAP), improve the performance of body joint detection by addressing challenges such as occlusion and background confusion. The experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed modules and the holistic SCC-Net.

Summary: Fractional order PID (FOPID) controller offers more flexibility in design options compared to integer order PID (IOPID) controller. However, in practical implementation, it is necessary to select achievable design specifications and controller parameters. This study collects and analyzes the complete achievable regions of design specifications and models the selectable integral and derivative orders of the FOPID controller. A synthesis method is proposed to achieve the desired flat-phase characteristic.

Summary: This study further investigated the expression pattern and promoter characteristics of GhLAR1, a critical enzyme in the synthesis pathway of proanthocyanidins in cotton fibers. The results showed that GhLAR1 was strongly expressed in fibers and flowers, with significantly higher expression levels in brown cotton compared to white cotton. The GhLAR1 promoter contained light response elements and defense-related transcription factor-binding boxes, which may explain its response to temperature, NaCl, and PEG treatments.

Summary: The influence of lignocellulose contents on the pore structure and distribution characteristics of porous carbon has been investigated. It was found that the microvolumes of ultra-micropores decreased with a decrease in cellulose contents, while mesopores followed the reverse trend. Carbon materials with abundant micropores and narrow mesopores exhibited better adsorption performance, while porous carbon with a hierarchical pore structure showed better regeneration abilities.

Summary: Between September 2011 and August 2018, a total of 133,131 acute diarrhoea cases were studied in Beijing. Out of 13,139 specimens collected and tested, 16.84% were positive for NoV. Three different NoV strains, GII.4 Sydney, GII.17, and GII.2, were predominant during different time periods. Excess cases of NoV-associated acute diarrhoea were observed during the predominance periods, ranging from 114.7% to 180.5% increase compared to baseline levels. This study highlights the impact of new NoV variants on gastroenteritis outbreaks.

Summary: Enterprise managers play a decisive role in management decisions, and the influence of managerial ability on enterprise development has received wide attention. This paper uses Chinese A-share listed companies from 2007 to 2019 as samples to examine the impact of management abilities on corporate performance and studies the moderating effect of compensation incentives on this impact. The findings show a significant positive correlation between managerial ability and listed company performance, which is more pronounced when management has higher compensation incentives.

Summary: This article proposes a neural network based direct lift landing control method for carrier-based aircraft, aiming at optimizing the control parameters in the landing control phase. By introducing neural network into the direct force loop, the controller parameters are optimized online to improve the convergence speed. Simulation experiments with the interference of deck motion, carrier air wake, and Monte Carlo pull deviation condition are performed, and the results show that the trajectory correction speed of the ship-based aircraft direct lift landing control based on neural network is faster, with smaller overshoot and higher accuracy.
