However, current brain network analysis approaches often suffer from limitations such as single-modal data processing and shallow fusion strategies, which hinder their ability to capture the multi-scale connectivity patterns associated with AD effectively. To alleviate these limitations, a novel multi-modal fusion framework is proposed in this paper, namely a cross-modal self-distillation graph convolutional network (CSD-GCN). The framework can deeply integrate fMRI and DTI data to facilitate the systematic extraction of hierarchical features from multimodal brain networks. The architecture of CSD-GCN comprises three progressive layers: edge-to-edge (E2E), edge-to-node (E2N), and node-to-graph (N2G). These layers are designed to perform multi-scale feature extraction, capturing neurodegenerative patterns ranging from local connection strengths to global topological structures. Moreover, the model incorporates a cross-modal self-knowledge distillation strategy and a cross-attention mechanism to enhance inter-modal feature alignment and fusion. These components collectively improve the generalization ability and discriminative capability of the learned representations.

Current methodologies primarily model on two levels of features: the macroscopic level, utilizing network topology, and the mesoscopic level, leveraging molecular-level features. While valuable, these approaches share a common shortcoming: they frequently fail to capture fine-grained, mechanistic interactions. This refers to the specific interplay between drug functional groups and disease symptoms that underpins pharmacological effects. To address this limitation, we propose LOGIC, a novel model for LLM-driven cross-scale feature coupling for DSI prediction. LOGIC comprehensively models drug and disease representations across micro-, meso-, and macro-scales. The key innovation of LOGIC lies in constructing a dictionary of functional groups and symptoms, and performing a simple and intuitive multi-hot encoding of drugs and diseases at the micro-scale, and in employing large language models (LLMs) to derive the meso-scale features of diseases without requiring additional domain knowledge. LOGIC mainly consists of four modules: (1) Drug-disease micro-scale feature learning; (2) Drug-disease meso-scale feature learning; (3) Drug-disease macro-scale feature learning; and (4) cross-scale feature coupling prediction, which integrates micro-, meso- and macro-scale features for both drugs and diseases, and employs the matrix multiplication operation to model fine-grained feature interactions in the dimension level for DSI prediction.

Network motifs-recurring, statistically significant subgraphs provide critical insights into the functional properties and structural organization of these networks. Existing research has explored various facets of motif detection, including enumeration, edge and node independence, dynamic updates, multi-layered networks, and stochastic settings. Although there have been studies in exploring the functionality of individual motif instances, a significant gap remains in understanding how collections of motif instances act as a group to influence the overall functionality of the network. In this paper, we aim to fill this gap. We model the influence of collections of motifs as a novel problem, which we call the Closest $k$-Motif Set Selection problem. We prove that this problem is NP-hard and develop MOSAIC (MOtif Set with mAximal InfluenCe), a novel greedy algorithm to address this problem. MOSAIC operates in two phases: an initialization phase for computing distances between motifs and nodes, and an update phase that incrementally selects motif instances to optimize their collective impact on the network. We prove that MOSAIC is efficient with a low degree polynomial time complexity. Our experimental results demonstrate that MOSAIC achieves optimal or near-optimal results, and scales to the entire human network efficiently. Our experiments on the human transcriptional regulatory network demonstrate that MOSAIC can identify Alzheimer's genes effectively, and select Alzheimer's genes that are missed by state-of-the-art node-based selection methods.

In this paper, we develop a delay-differential equation model of the p53-AKT-Mdm2 network to study how interlocked feedback loops, together with transcriptional-translational delay, shape p53 dynamics. Bifurcation analysis reveals three dynamical regimes that can be linked to distinct cellular outcomes: a stable low-p53 equilibrium (pro-survival), sustained p53 oscillations (repair-associated dynamics), and a stable high-p53 equilibrium (pro-death). We show that the positive feedback generated by p53-dependent inhibition of AKT and AKT-enhanced Mdm2 activity produces bistability within a certain range of total AKT levels. We further find that increasing the delay destabilizes the low-p53 equilibrium and induces oscillations through a Hopf bifurcation. For the baseline parameter setting, a further increase in delay suppresses the oscillatory state and drives the system toward the high-p53 attractor.

It designs a dual-branch architecture for cross-view contrastive co-training, thereby strengthening its representation ability for scRNA-seq data. Additionally, a progressive curriculum learning strategy is introduced to filter pseudo-labels dynamically. Specifically, high-confidence samples using the static threshold are applied to initial training, followed by guidance based on dynamic thresholding. Low-confidence samples are gradually incorporated into the training process, thereby mitigating the noise interference problem. Therefore, the proposed scCGC$^{2}$T method effectively mitigates error accumulation in the early training stage and greatly enhances the discriminative capability for complex cell subpopulations.

However, intuitively, the classical attention paradigm based on similarity does not fit the biological mechanisms relevant for binding. Worse still, the cooperative and antagonistic effects among multiple atoms are deliberately disregarded in the classical formulation of attention mechanisms. Consequently, the rigid transplantation of classical architectures substantially undermines the PLA prediction performance. To address these challenges, we employ a hierarchical statistical attention model (HISA). Specifically, HISA employs a statistical attention mechanism (SAM) based on non-similarity computation to fit the biological prior and perceive the relationship of multiple atoms.

Unfortunately, the PPM model gives rise to substantial ambiguity- in that many different phylogenetic trees can explain the same observed data- even in the idealized setting where data are observed perfectly, i.e., fully and without noise. This ambiguity has been studied in this perfect setting [17], which proposed a procedure to bound the number of solutions given a fixed instance of observation data. Beyond this, studies have been primarily empirical. Recent work proposed adding extra constraints to the PPM model to tackle ambiguity, In this paper, we first show that the extra constraints of [11], called longitudinal constraints (LC), often fail to reduce the number of distinct trees that explain the observations. We then propose novel alternative constraints to limit solution ambiguity and study their impact when the data are observed perfectly. Unlike the analysis in [17], our theoretical results-regarding both the inefficacy of the LC and the extent to which our new constrains reduce ambiguity are not tied to a single observation instance.
