| 1 | Multiple omics datasets reveal significant physical and physiological dormancy in alfalfa hard seeds identified by multispectral imaging analysis显示文摘Physical dormancy(PY) commonly present in the seeds of higher plants is believed to be responsible for the germination failure by impermeable seed coat in hard seeds of legume species, instead of physiological dormancy(PD). In this study, a non-destructive approach involving multispectral imaging was used to successfully identify hard seeds from non-hard seeds in Medicago sativa, with accuracy as high as96.8%–99.0%. We further adopted multiple-omics strategies to investigate the differences of physiology,metabolomics, methylomics, and transcriptomics in alfalfa hard seeds, with non-hard seeds as control.The hard seeds showed dramatically increased antioxidants and 125 metabolites of significant differences in non-targeted metabolomics analysis, which are enriched in the biosynthesis pathways of flavonoids, lipids and hormones, especially with significantly higher ABA, a hormone known to induce dormancy. In our transcriptomics results, the enrichment pathway of “response to abscisic acid” of differential expressed genes(DEG) supported the key role of ABA in metabolomics results. The methylome analysis identified 54,899, 46,216 and 54,452 differential methylation regions for contexts of CpG, CHG and CHH, and 344 DEGs might be regulated by hypermethylation and hypomethylation of promoter and exon regions, including four ABA-and JA-responsive genes. Among 8% hard seeds in seed lots,24.5% still did not germinate after scarifying seed coat, and were named as non-PY hard seeds.Compared to hard seeds, significantly higher contents of ABA/IAA and ABA/JA were identified in nonPY hard seeds, which indicated the potential presence of PD. In summary, the significantly changed metabolites, gene expressions, and methylations all suggested involvement of ABA responses in hard seeds, and germination failure of alfalfa hard seeds was caused by combinational dormancy(PY + PD),rather than PY alone. | Xuemeng Wang Han Zhang Rui Song Ming Sun Ping Liu Peixin Tian Peisheng Mao Shangang Jia | 2023 | The Crop Journal2023，11，5： | 1 |
| 2 | A survey of neural network accelerator with software development environments显示文摘Recent years,the deep learning algorithm has been widely deployed from cloud servers to terminal units.And researchers proposed various neural network accelerators and software development environments.In this article,we have reviewed the representative neural network accelerators.As an entirety,the corresponding software stack must consider the hardware architecture of the specific accelerator to enhance the end-to-end performance.And we summarize the programming environments of neural network accelerators and optimizations in software stack.Finally,we comment the future trend of neural network accelerator and programming environments. | Jin Song Xuemeng Wang Zhipeng Zhao Wei Li Tian Zhi | 2020 | Journal of Semiconductors2020，41，2： | 0 |
| 3 | Vision Enhanced Generative Pre-trained Language Model for Multimodal Sentence Summarization显示文摘Multimodal sentence summarization(MMSS)is a new yet challenging task that aims to generate a concise summary of a long sentence and its corresponding image.Although existing methods have gained promising success in MMSS,they overlook the powerful generation ability of generative pre-trained language models(GPLMs),which have shown to be effective in many text generation tasks.To fill this research gap,we propose to using GPLMs to promote the performance of MMSS.Notably,adopting GPLMs to solve MMSS inevitably faces two challenges:1)What fusion strategy should we use to inject visual information into GPLMs properly?2)How to keep the GPLM′s generation ability intact to the utmost extent when the visual feature is injected into the GPLM.To address these two challenges,we propose a vision enhanced generative pre-trained language model for MMSS,dubbed as Vision-GPLM.In Vision-GPLM,we obtain features of visual and textual modalities with two separate encoders and utilize a text decoder to produce a summary.In particular,we utilize multi-head attention to fuse the features extracted from visual and textual modalities to inject the visual feature into the GPLM.Meanwhile,we train Vision-GPLM in two stages:the vision-oriented pre-training stage and fine-tuning stage.In the vision-oriented pre-training stage,we particularly train the visual encoder by the masked language model task while the other components are frozen,aiming to obtain homogeneous representations of text and image.In the fine-tuning stage,we train all the components of Vision-GPLM by the MMSS task.Extensive experiments on a public MMSS dataset verify the superiority of our model over existing baselines. | Liqiang Jing Yiren Li Junhao Xu Yongcan Yu Pei Shen Xuemeng Song | 2023 | Machine Intelligence Research2023，20，2： | 0 |
