This limits their biological fidelity, as sustained oscillations are observed in vitro and in vivo under physiological conditions. To address these limitations, we propose a more biologically realistic framework by incorporating both transcriptional/translational time delays and spatial diffusion effects into a Reaction-Diffusion (RD) system with discrete time delays. The model describes the spatiotemporal dynamics of Hes1 mRNA and protein concentrations in the cytoplasm and nucleus. We establish the conditions under which the RD model undergoes a delay-induced Hopf bifurcation, leading to the emergence of stable periodic solutions. Furthermore, our analysis establishes explicit criteria on the delay and diffusion coefficients that ensure the existence of sustained oscillatory patterns.

Our findings demonstrate that species persistence depends on a delicate balance between cooperation-associated costs, population densities, and environmental variation rates. Under moderate fluctuations, species can track unstable states before reaching new equilibria, enhancing resilience. However, beyond critical thresholds, homoclinic and saddle-node bifurcations destabilize coexistence induced with increasing cooperation strength, leading to extinction cascades.

However, in the context of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), $ Rleft(tright) $ has not been used frequently, possibly because of the slowly progressing nature of HIV infection that limits the knowledge of recent infection events. Gaining deeper insights into the practically used epidemiological metrics of HIV/AIDS is therefore vital. Notably, in many high-income countries, including Japan, the rate of clinical AIDS on diagnosis, $ Qleft(tright) $, has been routinely measured by calculating the proportion of newly diagnosed AIDS cases out of all new HIV infections that are diagnosed at a given calendar time. However, there has been no clear indication of whether the control of HIV/AIDS is effective in relation to this metric in Japan. In this study, we formulated the rate of clinical AIDS on diagnosis using a mathematical model and offered interpretations of it using the hazard rate of diagnosis among previously undiagnosed HIV-infected individuals. We showed that by taking the inverse of the odds of $ Qleft(tright) $ and multiplying it by the inverse of the mean incubation period, we obtained $ alpha left(tright) $, which is the hazard rate of diagnosis among undiagnosed HIV-infected individuals. We also showed that $ alpha left(tright) $ can be related to the goal of the diagnosed proportion $ {P}_{0} $ among all people living with HIV. In addition to the rate of clinical AIDS on diagnosis $ Qleft(tright) $, $ alpha left(tright) $ can be calculated using a simplistic equation and can potentially act as a practical epidemiological metric for monitoring during surveillance.</p>","PeriodicalId":49870,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering","volume":"22 8","pages":"2105-2119"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144976523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rationale of this work was to address the disruption in the hydrologic cycle, which is caused by the dual adverse effects of human population growth: reducing forestry trees and diminishing clouds' formation. The proposed model assumes that the density of forestry trees decreases due to harvesting activities to fulfill the resource demands of human population. Additionally, it posits that the transpiration from forestry trees contributes to an increased density of vapor clouds' formation, while population growth adversely impacts the natural formation rate of vapor clouds. The model was analyzed by employing qualitative analysis, demonstrating the feasibility and stability of equilibrium solutions. Furthermore, to capture the consequences of environmental fluctuations on the model's dynamics, the proposed deterministic model was extended to a stochastic framework. The analytical and numerical work sought to provide the directives for understanding and mitigating the adverse effects of human activities on the hydrologic cycle, promoting sustainable practices to restore ecological equilibrium. Results of the model analysis reveal that an increase in human population leads to a decline in both rainfall and forestry trees. However, reforestation with high-transpiration tree species can mitigate rainfall decline and restore balance to the hydrologic cycle. Moreover, the maximum density of forest trees is achieved when the utility of rain by the forest trees and the natural formation of vapor clouds are maximal. Also, the minimal anthropogenic hindrance in reducing the natural formation of vapor clouds, combined with the maximal efficiency of vapor clouds to naturally convert into raindrops, facilitates maximum rainfall.</p>","PeriodicalId":49870,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering","volume":"22 8","pages":"2072-2104"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144976464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite long-standing efforts in control and modeling system research, mechanical ventilators, especially the air generation unit, remain a significant challenge due to various factors and uncertainties (e.g., model structure, order selection, time-varying parameters, etc.). This paper presents a novel approach for identifying ARMA models, specifically in ventilation pumps, using Ridge regression modified with momentum (Ridge-M) and a grid search-based joint optimization strategy. The proposed algorithm effectively estimates model coefficients while simultaneously selecting the optimal AR and MA orders along with time-delay parameters. By integrating momentum into Ridge regression, the estimation process gains stability and improved convergence, particularly in handling abrupt system changes. The grid search framework ensures robust model selection by systematically evaluating candidate structures using the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC). Experimental validation with multiple input functions, including ramp and multistep signals, demonstrates that Ridge-M achieves superior performance in capturing dynamic system behaviors. Ridge-M reduces the root mean squared error (RMSE) by 2.7% on average across multistep inputs for both scenarios compared to recursive least squares and 6.8% compared to standard Ridge regression. However, standard Ridge outperforms Ridge-M for ramp inputs for both scenarios, reducing RMSE by 0.7%, indicating that momentum can slow adaptation to gradual variations. Nonetheless, Ridge-M achieves the lowest overall average RMSE (31.6236) compared to RLS (34.1499) and standard Ridge regression (32.0247), confirming its superior balance between stability and adaptability in model identification.
