arXiv:2604.07492v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Message Passing Neural Networks have recently become the most popular approach to graph machine learning tasks; however, their receptive field is limited by the number of message passing layers. To increase the receptive field, Graph Transformers with global attention have been proposed; however, global attention does not take into account […]
DSPR: Dual-Stream Physics-Residual Networks for Trustworthy Industrial Time Series Forecasting
arXiv:2604.07393v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate forecasting of industrial time series requires balancing predictive accuracy with physical plausibility under non-stationary operating conditions. Existing data-driven models often achieve strong statistical performance but struggle to respect regime-dependent interaction structures and transport delays inherent in real-world systems. To address this challenge, we propose DSPR (Dual-Stream Physics-Residual Networks), a […]
A Physical Agentic Loop for Language-Guided Grasping with Execution-State Monitoring
arXiv:2604.07395v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation systems that follow language instructions often execute grasp primitives in a largely single-shot manner: a model proposes an action, the robot executes it, and failures such as empty grasps, slips, stalls, timeouts, or semantically wrong grasps are not surfaced to the decision layer in a structured way. Inspired […]
Statistical Principles Define an Open-Source Differential Analysis Workflow for Mass Spectrometry Imaging Experiments with Complex Designs
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) characterizes the spatial heterogeneity of molecular abundances in biological samples. Experiments with complex designs, involving multiple conditions and multiple samples, provide particularly useful insight into differential abundance of analytes. However, analyses of these experiments require attention to details such as signal processing, selection of regions of interest, and statistical methodology. This […]
The chitin receptor-interacting protein LIK1 regulates extracellular ATP signaling via interaction with P2K1 in Arabidopsis thaliana
Previously, the chitin receptor-interacting protein kinase LIK1 (LysM receptor kinase 1/CERK1-interacting kinase) was shown to play an important role in regulating chitin signaling and plant defense. A limited proteolysis proteomics study revealed several LIK1-derived peptides that showed differential abundance between ATP-treated and mock-treated Arabidopsis samples, suggesting a possible involvement of LIK1 in extracellular ATP (eATP) […]
TopicVI: A Knowledge-guided deep interpretable model for resolving context-specific gene programs
Mechanistic insights from single-cell and spatial transcriptomics largely rely on cell clustering, differential expression analysis, and interpretation through prior biological knowledge. However, this approach is often limited by the reliance on curated biological priors that fail to capture context-specific gene programs, particularly in complex disease states. To address this gap, we introduce TopicVI, a deep […]
Isoprenoid quinone profiling in complex biological samples using a novel semi-quantitative HPLC-MS/MS method
Isoprenoid quinones are ubiquitous redox lipids that mediate electron transfer in various cellular processes across all domains of life. These molecules also serve as taxonomic and metabolic markers, facilitating the characterisation of microbial communities. However, their structural diversity and extreme hydrophobicity pose challenges for comprehensive detection and quantification in complex biological matrices. In this study, […]
Ecological predictability emerges at the population level in phytoplankton communities
Predicting the composition and dynamics of ecological communities is challenging because complexity increases rapidly with species richness. A common strategy is to adopt a reductionist framework in which community dynamics are inferred from simpler components, such as population-level parameters or organismal traits. However, it remains unclear at which level of biological organization ecological predictability emerges. […]
Dengue serotype-1 virus like particles induce antibody responses following HeLa cell expression
Dengue disease remains a significant global health threat, with current vaccines exhibiting variable efficacy and safety concerns. Virus-like particles (VLPs) offer a promising alternative by mimicking native virus structures without infectious genomes. We engineered a mammalian expression plasmid encoding Dengue-1 prM and E proteins, optimized for secretion using Japanese Encephalitis virus signal sequences, and transiently […]
PES-8 is required for Cytoskeletal Organization and Contractility in the C. elegans Spermatheca
Proper regulation of contraction and relaxation in biological tubes is essential for organismal function. In C. elegans, the spermatheca, composed of smooth muscle-like cells, undergoes repeated stretching and contraction as oocytes pass through. Here we describe PES-8, a previously uncharacterized protein, as a regulator of spermatheca contractility. PES-8 contains a predicted extracellular zona pellucida-like domain […]
Automated Extraction and Meta-Analysis of a Century of Motor-Unit Research with NeuromechaniX
The scientific literature on human motor units and electromyography (EMG) spans over a century (1925-2025), comprising research impossible to synthesize manually. We introduce NeuromechaniX, a domain-specific platform for automated extraction and meta-analysis of this literature. The core component, MUscraper, is a large language model pipeline that extracts approximately 200 structured metadata fields, organized into 17 […]
Dual Recognition Drives Site-Directed G-Quadruplex Stabilization: Exploring Oligonucleotide Design in G4 Ligand-Oligonucleotide Conjugates
G-quadruplex (G4) DNA structures are increasingly recognized for their roles in key cellular processes, including transcriptional regulation and genome stability, making them attractive therapeutic targets. Selective recognition of individual G4s remains challenging due to the high structural similarity among human G4 motifs. The G4 Ligand-conjugated Oligonucleotide strategy addresses this need by combining the G4-binding capabilities […]
