Abstract
<p>We present a robust and computationally efficient approach for assigning partial charges of atoms in
molecules. The method is based on a hierarchical tree constructed from attention values extracted
from a graph neural network (GNN), which was trained to predict atomic partial charges from accurate
quantum-mechanical (QM) calculations. The resulting dynamic attention-based substructure hierarchy
(DASH) approach provides fast assignment of partial charges with the same accuracy as the GNN itself,
is software-independent, and can easily be integrated in existing parametrization pipelines as shown for
the Open force field (OpenFF). The implementation of the DASH workflow, the final DASH tree, and
the training set are available as open source / open data from public repositories.</p>
A new approach for estimating northern peatland gross primary productivity using a satellite-sensor-derived chlorophyll index
Carbon flux models that are largely driven by remotely sensed data can be used to estimate gross primary productivity (GPP) over large areas, but despite the importance of peatland ecosystems in the global carbon cycle, relatively little attention has been given to determining their success in these ecosystems. This paper is the first to explore the potential of chlorophyll-based vegetation index models for estimating peatland GPP from satellite data. Using several years of carbon flux data from contrasting peatlands, we explored the relationships between the MERIS terrestrial chlorophyll index (MTCI) and GPP, and determined whether the inclusion of environmental variables such as PAR and temperature, thought to be important determinants of peatland carbon flux, improved upon direct relationships. To place our results in context, we compared the newly developed GPP models with the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer) GPP product. Our results show that simple MTCI-based models can be used for estimates of interannual and intra-annual variability in peatland GPP. The MTCI is a good indicator of GPP and compares favorably with more complex products derived from the MODIS sensor on a site-specific basis. The incorporation of MTCI into a light use efficiency type model, by means of partitioning the fraction of photosynthetic material within a plant canopy, shows most promise for peatland GPP estimation, outperforming all other models. Our results demonstrate that satellite data specifically related to vegetation chlorophyll content may ultimately facilitate improved quantification of peatland carbon flux dynamics

A mechanism for multiple goods and interdependent valuations
This paper reports on the design of an auction mechanism for allocating multiple goods when the buyers have interdependent valuations. We cast the problem as a multi-agent system consisting of selfish, rational agents and develop an auction mechanism which is efficient, incentive compatible and individually rational. We first discuss the necessary assumptions that any mechanism developed for this scenario should satisfy so as to achieve the aforementioned properties. We then present our mechanism and show how it is a generalisation of the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves mechanism

Optimal strategies for bidding agents participating in simultaneous Vickrey auctions with perfect substitutes
We derive optimal strategies for a bidding agent that participates in multiple, simultaneous second-price auctions with perfect substitutes. We prove that, if everyone else bids locally in a single auction, the global bidder should always place non-zero bids in all available auctions, provided there are no budget constraints. With a budget, however, the optimal strategy is to bid locally if this budget is equal or less than the valuation. Furthermore, for a wide range of valuation distributions, we prove that the problem of finding the optimal bids reduces to two dimensions if all auctions are identical. Finally, we address markets with both sequential and simultaneous auctions, non-identical auctions, and the allocative efficiency of the market
Cell membrane coated nanocarriers - an efficient biomimetic platform for targeted therapy
Targeted therapy approaches have become the core of modern translational science and as an intriguing field, it is the solution of the conventional drug delivery problems that were once unanswered. Traditional methods of delivering drugs and therapeutics faced issues of solubility, sustained release, not enough amount getting through the diseased site, for e.g a tumor. Various formulations of liposomes, polymers, dendrimers, etc have succeeded and made their way for clinical trials trying to enhance the pharmacokinetic and biodistribution of the drug. Many stealth coatings that include hydrophilic polymers (PEG, chitosan, polyacrylamides, etc) can act as a covering around the nanoparticle that can shield the surface from aggregation, opsonization and evade immune system, thus considered in Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) category. Several other polymers such as poly-2-oxazoline, polyethylene oxide, PEG-based surfactant (polysorbate-80), and zwitterionic phospholipids have also been tested for their antifouling properties. However, the polymer coating approach requires labor-intensive procedures and conjugation chemistries that often fail in mice model. Besides, due to immunogenicity and allergic reactions evoked by the PEG-coated nanoparticles, there was an urge to find biomimicking materials that can prove better as shielding agents which paved the way for cell membrane coated nanoparticles (CMCNPs) to come into the limelight. CMCNPs consist of a nanoparticle inner core covered by cell membrane that can be implicated in targeted drug delivery approaches, photothermal therapy, diagnosis or imaging making it a powerful theranostic tool. In this review, mode of preparation of CMCNPs, different sources of cell membranes (RBCs, WBCs, platelets, cancer cells, stem cells with some other unconventional sources) and nanoparticle cores that are employed have been thoroughly emphasized. In addition to this, advancements and limitations with respect to this newly emerging field have been focussed
