Summary: Software Defined Networking (SDN) is widely used for network programmability by separating the controller logic from the data plane. Domain partitioning is crucial for SDN-enabled communication networks to divide large network topologies into manageable and administrative domains. Existing algorithms for domain partitioning fail to consider the connectivity, balance constraint, compactness, and traffic cohesion simultaneously, which are required for SDN communications. This paper introduces a novel balanced network partitioning (BaDoP) algorithm that enhances the balance of the partitioned domains, optimizes compactness and traffic cohesion, while maintaining connectivity. The simulation results demonstrate that the BaDoP algorithm outperforms previous algorithms, achieving significant improvements in balancing the partitioned domains.

Summary: This paper proposes an adaptive spatial location module for the video captioning task to reduce spatial and temporal redundancy in videos and improve the accuracy of generated descriptions. It also introduces a balanced loss function to address class imbalance and generate more diverse description sentences. Extensive experiments show that the proposed method achieves competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Summary: This study investigated the physiological changes of drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive soybean varieties under different soil moisture conditions. The results showed that with decreasing soil moisture, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in soybean leaves increased, while the activities of antioxidant enzymes and osmotic regulatory substances increased. The total antioxidant capacity also significantly increased. The drought-tolerant variety HN44 exhibited less drought-induced damage compared to the drought-sensitive variety HN65.

Summary: This review summarizes recent studies on the plant circadian system, including molecular mechanisms, internal and external time cues, and physiological regulation. The circadian clock in plants is highly sensitive to timing cues such as light, temperature, and nutrients, and it regulates independent rhythms in different tissues, affecting processes like growth and immune response.

Summary: The dynamic response of a model involving a planar four-bar mechanism and a spatial RSSR mechanism was analyzed, taking into account revolute joint clearance and friction. A non-holonomic constraint equation was proposed to solve the Euler angles, and dynamic equations were established using the Lagrange equation, contact model, and LuGre friction model. The study found that maximum penetration depth is sensitive to slider speed changes, and a method to reduce collision peak values was proposed.

Summary: In this letter, a global context-guided spatial feature transformation (SFT) network is proposed to learn invariant feature representation for visual relocalization from a single RGB image, achieving robustness against viewpoint changes. By predicting transformation parameters and transforming features to a canonical space, viewpoint invariance is achieved, with further improvement in feature discrimination on texture-less or repetitive zones. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of accuracy and efficiency.

Summary: In this paper, a dual position-sensitive detector-based vision measurement system camera is developed for the position detection of a spatial light spot. The 3D position information of the light spot is calculated based on the 2D coordinate information from two position-sensitive detectors. A nonlinear error calibration method is also proposed to improve the accuracy of the measured values. The study concludes that smaller spot sizes result in higher positioning accuracy.

Summary: High-temperature stress significantly impacts the growth and development of woody plants. Woody plants have mechanisms to adapt to high temperatures by regulating osmotic adjustment substances, antioxidant enzyme activities, and transcription control factors. The ability of woody plants to sense high-temperature stimuli and initiate physiological, biochemical, and genomic changes is crucial for their survival.

Summary: Compute-in-memory (CIM) is a promising technique for reducing data movement in neural network acceleration. However, practical multi-macro accelerators face issues of spatial and temporal under-utilization. To address these problems, we propose a Sparsity-balanced Practical CIM accelerator (SPCIM) that optimizes the dataflow and hardware architecture design. Experimental results show that SPCIM achieves significant speedup and energy savings compared to the baseline sparse CIM accelerator.

Summary: This study investigates the representation of spatial relations in humans using dynamic resting-state functional connectivity. The results show that the representation of categorical relations is related to weak integration among focal regions in the navigation network, while the representation of coordinate relations requires competitive interactions among widely distributed regions.

Summary: Aging results in decreased amplitude of circadian rhythm in turquoise killifish, with significantly downregulated Bmal1 protein levels in the brain of old fish. However, interactions with Clockb and chromatin binding of Bmal1 to its downstream target promoters are retained, suggesting spatial confinement of the circadian clock system to the pineal gland in aged killifish.
