A knowledge graph embeddings based approach for author name disambiguation using literals
No full textScholarly data is growing continuously containing information about the articles from a plethora of venues including conferences, journals, etc. Many initiatives have been taken to make scholarly data available in the form of Knowledge Graphs (KGs). These efforts to standardize these data and make them accessible have also led to many challenges such as exploration of scholarly articles, ambiguous authors, etc. This study more specifically targets the problem of Author Name Disambiguation (AND) on Scholarly KGs and presents a novel framework, Literally Author Name Disambiguation (LAND), which utilizes Knowledge Graph Embeddings (KGEs) using multimodal literal information generated from these KGs. This framework is based on three components: (1) multimodal KGEs, (2) a blocking procedure, and finally, (3) hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering. Extensive experiments have been conducted on two newly created KGs: (i) KG containing information from Scientometrics Journal from 1978 onwards (OC-782K), and (ii) a KG extracted from a well-known benchmark for AND provided by AMiner (AMiner-534K). The results show that our proposed architecture outperforms our baselines of 8–14% in terms of F1 score and shows competitive performances on a challenging benchmark such as AMiner. The code and the datasets are publicly available through Github (https://github.com/sntcristian/and-kge) and Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6309855) respectively
Photocatalysis, photoinduced enhanced anti-bacterial functions and development of a selective m-tolyl hydrazine sensor based on mixed Ag·NiMn(2)O(4) nanomaterials
No full textIn this work, a tri-metal based nanocomposite was synthesized and characterized. A detailed investigation of the photocatalytic dye degradation efficiency of the nanocomposite under visible light showed promising results in a wide pH range, both acidic and basic medium. Studies on anti-bacterial activity against seven pathogenic bacteria, including both Gram positive and Gram negative species, were conducted in the presence and absence of light and compared with the standard antibiotic gentamicin. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of Ag·NiMn(2)O(4) against multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens ranged from 0.008 to 0.65 μg μL(−1), while the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was found to be 0.0016 μg μL(−1). The nanomaterial, Ag·NiMn(2)O(4) was deposited onto the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE; 0.0316 cm(2)) as a thin film to fabricate the chemical sensor probe. The proposed sensor showed linear current (vs. concentration) response to m-THyd (m-tolyl hydrazine) from 1.0 pM to 0.01 mM, which is denoted as the linear dynamic range (LDR). The estimated sensitivity and detection limit of the m-THyd sensor were found to be 47.275 μA μM(−1) cm(−2) and 0.97 ± 0.05 pM, respectively. As a potential sensor, it is reliable due to its good reproducibility, rapid response, higher sensitivity, working stability for long duration and efficiency in the analysis of real environmental samples
Photocatalytic performance, anti-bacterial activities and 3-chlorophenol sensor fabrication using MnAl(2)O(4)·ZnAl(2)O(4) nanomaterials
No full textA MnAl(2)O(4)·ZnAl(2)O(4) nanomaterial was synthesized by co-precipitation and characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, TEM, AFM, FTIR, PL, CV and EIS. The photocatalytic activity of the nanocomposite against MV dye and its MDR anti-bacterial functions were studied. The nanocomposite shows excellent photocatalytic as well as anti-bacterial activity. A MnAl(2)O(4)·ZnAl(2)O(4) nanomaterial/Nafion/GCE electrode was fabricated and implemented as the working electrode of a 3-CP sensor. The sensor exhibited good sensitivity, with the lowest detection limit, fast response time, large linear dynamic range (LDR), and long-term stability in the chemical environment. The estimated sensitivity is 70.07 μA mM(−1) cm(−2). The LDR, limit of detection (LOD), and limit of quantification (LOQ) are 0.1 nM to 0.01 M, 0.0014 ± 0.0001 nM, and 0.004 nM, respectively. The MnAl(2)O(4)·ZnAl(2)O(4) nanomaterial/Nafion/GCE is a promising fabricated sensor probe for the selective detection of 3-CP for the environmental safety and healthcare fields on a large scale

Current Biotechnological Approaches in Maize Improvement
No full textMaize is a major consumable cereal crop and a resource of a range of economic products worldwide. Approximately, 55%, 20%, and 12% of maize are utilized for feed, nonfood products, and food purposes, respectively. Consumption of maize is expected to increase in many Asian and African countries, where yield is estimated to be double by 2030. Biotechnology contributes largely to the maize improvement to meet the growing demand. Molecular marker technologies have facilitated rapid improvements in maize breeding by characterizing germplasm, verifying pedigree records, classifying inbred on the basis of heterosis, figuring out what causes heterosis and how to predict it, finding and localizing genes, and using marker-assisted selection. The advent of sequencing and genomic technologies, bioengineering techniques such as genetic transformation and CRISPR-Cas genome editing, and the establishment of advanced molecular breeding methodologies using genomic information have a large influence on maize breeding. The advancement of informatics and biotechnology has led to the development of several bioinformatic tools that are extensively been utilized by maize researchers for successful molecular breeding. Furthermore, modern biotechnology offers a revolutionary platform like nanobiotechnology for increasing maize genetic gain by delivering a specific gene or QTL (quantitative trait locus) to develop plants having novel traits. This chapter provides an overview and discusses current biotechnological advancement in maize research that may bring potential opportunities for the improvement of this crop in the changing climate.No Full Tex
Development of Fragility Functions for Brick Masonry Structures Using Damage Data from September 24, 2019, Earthquake in Mirpur, Azad Kashmir
No full textThis paper presents fragility functions for clay brick unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings that were developed using the data of damage and earthquake intensity by the September 24, 2019, Mirpur, Azad Jammu and Kashmir earthquake. These data were collected through reconnaissance surveys in the affected region. The intensity of the earthquake ranged from V to VII on the Modified Mercalli Intensity scale in the surveyed areas. The damage to clay brick piers of bridges was caused by compression or shear-compression forces applied by the vertical seismic forces. Most of the damaged URM buildings showed in-plane wall cracking with very few cases of out-of-plane wall failure. The damage in these buildings was influenced by both the ground motion’s horizontal component and ground motion amplification due to site conditions. The damage types to the URM buildings in the surveyed areas were classified into five damage grades and these data were employed to propose fragility curves for clay brick URM buildings
