Use red blood cell stabilizer to store the antibody screening and antibody identification reagent red blood cells (RBCs) treated with 0.01 mol/L DTT and investigate its value in the pre-transfusion examinations of patients treated with daratumumab. Determined the optimal incubation time for the 0.01 mol/L DTT-treated RBCs method by evaluating the effect of treatment at different time points. Added ID-CellStab to store DTT-treated RBCs, determined the maximum shelf life of reagent RBCs by monitoring the hemolysis index, and assessed changes in the antigenicity of blood group antigens on the surface of RBCs during storage with antibody reagents. A protocol for long-term storage of reagent red blood cells treated with the 0.01 mol/L DTT method was established. The optimal incubation time was 40-50 min. RBCs could be stored stably for 18 days after adding ID-CellStab. The protocol was able to eliminate pan-agglutination caused by daratumumab, with no significant changes in the antigens of most blood group systems, except for some attenuation of K antigen and Duffy blood group system antigens during the storage period. The storage protocol of reagent RBCs based on the 0.01 mol/L DTT method does not affect the detection of most blood group antibodies and retains a certain degree of detection ability for anti-K antibodies, allowing patients treated with daratumumab to quickly perform pre-transfusion examinations, making up for the shortcomings of currently commercial reagent RBCs.

This article aims to design a linear delay feedback control to stabilise an unstable hybrid stochastic delay differential equation in distribution. Under the global Lipschitz condition, sufficient criteria are established to guarantee the stability of the controlled system. Then LMI techniques are employed to design the control law in two structure forms: state feedback and output injection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to design the feedback control based on past states to stabilise a class of nonlinear stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion. By building up the connection between the delay feedback control and the control function of no-delay, sufficient conditions are established in terms of size of the time delay ensuring both the pth moment exponential stability and quasi-surely exponential stability of the delay feedback controlled system. Moreover, methods for determining the upper bound of the length of the time delay and further designing the delay feedback controller are provided. A numerical example is presented to demonstrate our new theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is concerned with the stabilization problem for nonlinear stochastic delay systems with Markovian switching by feedback control based on discrete-time state and mode observations. By constructing an efficient Lyapunov functionals, we establish the sufficient stabilization criteria not only in the sense of exponential stability (both the mean-square stability and the almost sure stability) but also in other sense – that of H ∞ stability and asymptotic stability. Meanwhile, the upper bound on the duration τ between two consecutive state and mode observations is obtained. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The crater is one of the main obstacles that need to be avoided when Mars probe lands. In order to further improve the accuracy of crater detection, this paper proposes a combined detection method based on deep learning. Firstly, the random structured forest is trained offline to detect the edge information of craters. Secondly, according to the detected edge information of the crater, the candidate areas of the crater are determined with the morphological method. For the identified candidate areas of the crater, Alexnet network trained by transfer learning was used to identify crater areas. Compared with other methods, the proposed method has relatively good effect. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Pedo-transfer functions (PTFs) have been widely used to estimate soil hydraulic properties in the simulation of catchment eco-hydrological processes. However, the accuracy of existing PTFs is usually inadequate for use. To develop PTFs for local use, soil columns were collected from a double rice-cropped agricultural catchment in subtropical central China. The PTFs for saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ks) and parameters (θs,α, andn) of the van Genuchten model for the soil water retention curve (SWRC) were obtained based on soil’s basic properties, and compared with models developed by Li et al. in 2007 and Wösten et al. in 1999, respectively. Our results indicated thatKsin the range of 0.04–1087 cm d−1andθsin the range of 0.34–0.51 cm3 cm−3were both well estimated with theR2adjof 0.72 and 0.87, respectively, butα(0.04–0.65 cm−1) andn(1.05–1.21) were relatively poorly predicted with the respectiveR2adjof 0.38 and 0.55, despite the use of more input parameters. Our local derived PTFs outperformed the other two existing models. However, if the local PTFs for paddy soils are not available, the Wösten et al. 1999 model can be proposed as a useful alternative. Therefore, this study can improve our understanding of the development and application of PTFs for predicting paddy soil hydraulic properties in China. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
