Conjugate gradient methods are among the most efficient for solving optimization models. In this paper, a newly proposed conjugate method is problems as convex combination of Harger-Zhan and Dai-Yaun nonlinear methods, which capable producing sufficient descent condition with global convergence properties under strong Wolfe conditions. The numerical results demonstrate efficiency some benchmark...

In multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels, the design criterion for full-diversity space-time block codes (STBCs) is primarily determined by the decoding method at the receiver. Although constructions of STBCs have predominantly matched the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoder, design criteria and constructions of full-diversity STBCs have also been reported for low-complexity linear ...

In the present study, the origin of the anti-quorum sensing (QS) activities of several members of a recently synthesized and in vitro tested class of lactone and thiolactone based inhibitors were computationally investigated. Docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulations and binding free energy calculations were carried out to reveal the exact binding and inhibitory profiles of these compounds...

The Koppen Climate Classification system is one of the examples dissecting global climate process into uniform zones. Due to the fractal structure of geographic phenomenon, the classification of climate zones may be applied at different scales to promote further understanding of climate system at the human-environment interface. This research presents a workflow of classifying climate zones by ...

Despite more than a century of photonic advances, there still exist solutions to Maxwell's equations that remain elusive. Now, Qiwen Zhan and colleagues demonstrate the first toroidal vortex light, introducing twists folds in time space for new forms 4D structured light.

Magnetic miniature robots have great potential to create a paradigm shift for robotics, materials science, and biomedicine because they can non-invasively access highly confined enclosed spaces perform vast range of small-scale manipulation tasks. In article number 2100170, Guo Zhan Lum co-workers introduce optimal magnetic that display unprecedented dexterity, capabilities, functionalities.

Protein complexes play a vital role in living organisms as they regulate and execute biological processes. As experimental methods of extracting protein complexes are fraught with difficulties, scientists look towards protein complex prediction. However, protein-protein interaction (PPI) data which are used to predict protein complexes are often noisy and incomplete. As published literature may...
