ROLES OF VASCULAR AND METABOLIC COMPONENTS IN COGNITIVE DYSFUNCTION OF ALZHEIMER DISEASE: SHORT- AND LONG-TERM MODIFICATION BY NON-GENETIC RISK FACTORS

Roles of Vascular and Metabolic Components in Cognitive Dysfunction of Alzheimer disease: Short- and Long-term Modification by Non-genetic Risk Factors

It is well known that a specific set of genetic and non-genetic risk factors contributes to the onset of Alzheimer disease (AD).Non-genetic risk factors include diabetes, hypertension in mid-life, and probably dyslipidemia in mid-life.This review focuses on the vascular and metabolic components of non-genetic risk factors.The mechanisms whereby non

Advancing studies on global biocrust distribution

Biological soil crusts (biocrusts hereafter) cover a Powder Foundation substantial proportion of the dryland ecosystem and play crucial roles in ecological processes such as biogeochemical cycles, water distribution, and soil erosion.Consequently, studying the spatial distribution of biocrusts holds great significance for drylands, especially on a

Transfer learning in hybrid classical-quantum neural networks

We extend the concept of transfer learning, widely applied in modern machine learning Wick Trimmer algorithms, to the emerging context of hybrid neural networks composed of classical and quantum elements.We propose different implementations of hybrid transfer learning, but we focus mainly on the paradigm in which a pre-trained classical network is
