Biology of Myxobacteria
  • Language: en

Biology of Myxobacteria

Myxobacteria are ubiquitous Gram-negative soil bacteria with a complex multicellular population behavior. They are highly social microbes that move, hunt and develop to build fruiting bodies, which are associated with feeding on a diverse range of bacteria and fungi for nutrition. Therefore, myxobacteria are classified as keystone taxa in the microbial food web and are key players in determining community organization, with potential applications in the biocontrol of plant diseases, wastewater treatment, and bioconversion. In addition, myxobacteria are regarded as natural pharmaceutical and functional enzyme factories due to their diversity and the unique properties of their secondary metabolites and enzymes, making them highly attractive for resource discovery. However, the difficulty in purifying and cultivating many types of myxobacteria limits the in-depth study of myxobacteria. Otherwise, key factors involved in the biological interaction and bioconversion of myxobacteria taxa remain largely unexplored, hindering their practical applications.

Brain Networks for Studying Healthy and Pathological Aging Mechanisms and Intervention Efficacy

Previous studies showed that both healthy and pathological aging are associated with changes in brain structure and function of the mature human brain. The most prominent anatomical alteration are changes in prefrontal cortex morphology, volume loss and reduced white-matter integrity and hippocampal atrophy. Cognitive decline affects mainly the performance of episodic memory, speed of sensory information processing, working memory, inhibitory function and long-term memory. It has been also proposed that due to the aforementioned changes the aging brain engages in compensatory brain mechanism such as a broader activation of cortical regions (mainly frontal) rather than specialized activation....

Representation Learning for Natural Language Processing

This open access book provides an overview of the recent advances in representation learning theory, algorithms and applications for natural language processing (NLP). It is divided into three parts. Part I presents the representation learning techniques for multiple language entries, including words, phrases, sentences and documents. Part II then introduces the representation techniques for those objects that are closely related to NLP, including entity-based world knowledge, sememe-based linguistic knowledge, networks, and cross-modal entries. Lastly, Part III provides open resource tools for representation learning techniques, and discusses the remaining challenges and future research directions. The theories and algorithms of representation learning presented can also benefit other related domains such as machine learning, social network analysis, semantic Web, information retrieval, data mining and computational biology. This book is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, researchers, lecturers, and industrial engineers, as well as anyone interested in representation learning and natural language processing.

Genetic Algorithms in Applications

Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are one of several techniques in the family of Evolutionary Algorithms - algorithms that search for solutions to optimization problems by "evolving" better and better solutions. Genetic Algorithms have been applied in science, engineering, business and social sciences. This book consists of 16 chapters organized into five sections. The first section deals with some applications in automatic control, the second section contains several applications in scheduling of resources, and the third section introduces some applications in electrical and electronics engineering. The next section illustrates some examples of character recognition and multi-criteria classification, and the last one deals with trading systems. These evolutionary techniques may be useful to engineers and scientists in various fields of specialization, who need some optimization techniques in their work and who may be using Genetic Algorithms in their applications for the first time. These applications may be useful to many other people who are getting familiar with the subject of Genetic Algorithms.
