Bayesian Variable Selection and Estimation in Semiparametric Simplex Mixed-Effects Models with Longitudinal Proportional Data

In the development of simplex mixed-effects models, random effects in these mixed-effects models are generally distributed in normal distribution. The normality assumption may be violated in an analysis of skewed and multimodal longitudinal data. In this paper, we adopt the centered Dirichlet process mixture model (CDPMM) to specify the random effects in the simplex mixed-effects models. Combining the block Gibbs sampler and the Metropolis–Hastings algorithm, we extend a Bayesian Lasso (BLasso) to simultaneously estimate unknown parameters of interest and select important covariates with nonzero effects in semiparametric simplex mixed-effects models. Several simulation studies and a real example are employed to illustrate the proposed methodologies.

Cadmium（Ⅱ） adopts a distorted octahedral coordination geometry and adjacent coordination chains are intercalated in a zipper-like fashion into 2D layers through the π-π stacking interactions between dmbpy. Fluorescent analyses show that it exhibits intense blue photoluminescence in both DMF and DMSO solutions at room temperature.

Effects of multi-frequency ultrasound on physicochemical properties,structural characteristics of gluten protein and the quality of noodle

In this study, the influence of multi-frequency ultrasound irradiation on the functional properties and structural characteristics of gluten, as well as the textural and cooking characteristics of the noodles were investigated. Results showed that the textural and cooking characteristics of noodles that contain less gluten pretreated by multi-frequency ultrasonic were ultrasonic frequency dependent. Moreover, the noodles that contain a smaller amount of sonicated gluten could achieve the textural and cooking quality of commercial noodles. There was no significant difference in the cooking and texture characteristics between commercial noodles and noodles with 12%, 11%, and 10% gluten pretreated by single-frequency (40 kHz), dual-frequency (28/40 kHz), and triple-frequency sonication (28/40/80 kHz), respectively. Furthermore, the cavitation efficiency of triple-frequency ultrasound was greater than that of dual-frequency and single-frequency. As the number of ultrasonic frequencies increased, the solubility, water holding capacity and oil holding capacity of gluten increased significantly (p < 0.05), and the particle size was reduced from 197.93 ± 5.28 nm to 110.15 ± 2.61 nm. Furthermore, compared to the control group (untreated), the UV absorption and fluorescence intensity of the gluten treated by multi-frequency ultrasonication increased. The surface hydrophobicity of gluten increased from 8159.1 ± 195.87 (untreated) to 11621.5 ± 379.72 (28/40/80 kHz). Raman spectroscopy showed that the α-helix content of all sonicated gluten protein samples decreased after sonication, while the β-sheet and β-turn content increased, and tryptophan and tyrosine residues were exposed. Through scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, the gluten protein network structure after ultrasonic treatment was loose, and the pore size of the gluten protein network increased from about 10 μm (untreated) to about 26 μm (28/40/80 kHz). This work elucidated the effect of ultrasonic frequency on the performance of gluten, indicating that with increasing frequency combination increases, the ultrasound effect became more pronounced and protein unfolding increased, thereby impacting the functional properties and the quality of the final product. This study provided a theoretical basis for the application of multi-frequency ultrasound technology in the modification of gluten protein and noodle processing.     

Quantum Fisher information of the GHZ state due to classical phase noise lasers under non-Markovian environment

The dynamics of N$N$-qubit GHZ state quantum Fisher information (QFI) under phase noise lasers (PNLs) driving is investigated in terms of non-Markovian master equation. We first investigate the non-Markovian dynamics of the QFI of N$N$-qubit GHZ state and show that when the ratio of the PNL rate and the system–environment coupling strength is very small, the oscillations of the QFIs decay slower which corresponds to the non-Markovian region; yet when it becomes large, the QFIs monotonously decay which corresponds to the Markovian region. When the atom number N$N$ increases, QFIs in both regions decay faster. We further find that the QFI flow disappears suddenly followed by a sudden birth depending on the ratio of the PNL rate and the system–environment coupling strength and the atom number N$N$, which unveil a fundamental connection between the non-Markovian behaviors and the parameters of system–environment couplings. We discuss two optimal positive operator-valued measures (POVMs) for two different strategies of our model and find the condition of the optimal measurement. At last, we consider the QFI of two atoms with qubit–qubit interaction under random telegraph noises (RTNs).

The coordination polymers [Zn₂(NDA)(HNDA)₂(IPT)₂]_n ( 1 ) and [Mn(NDA)(IPT)]_n ( 2 ) [H₂NDA = naphthalene‐1,4‐dicarboxylic acid and IPT = 4′‐(4‐(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)phenyl)‐4,2′:6′,4′′‐terpyridine] were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Complex 1 features a one‐dimensional ladder‐like chain, whereas complex 2 shows a three‐dimensional CdS topology. The different coordination modes for organic ligands and topological nets for complexes 1 and 2 are mainly related with the metal ions.
