Cluster ensembles: A survey of approaches with recent extensions and applications

Cluster ensembles have been shown to be better than any standard clustering algorithm at improving accuracy and robustness across different data collections. This meta-learning formalism also helps users to overcome the dilemma of selecting an appropriate technique and the corresponding parameters, given a set of data to be investigated. Almost two decades after the first publication of a kind, the method has proven effective for many problem domains, especially microarray data analysis and its down-streaming applications. Recently, it has been greatly extended both in terms of theoretical modelling and deployment to problem solving. The survey attempts to match this emerging attention with the provision of fundamental basis and theoretical details of state-of-the-art methods found in the present literature. It yields the ranges of ensemble generation strategies, summarization and representation of ensemble members, as well as the topic of consensus clustering. This review also includes different applications and extensions of cluster ensemble, with several research issues and challenges being highlighted.

Effects of active chitosan-flaxseed mucilage-based films on the preservation of minced trout fillets: A comparison among aerobic,vacuum, and modified atmosphere packaging

The objectives of the current study were to examine physical–mechanical, structural, and morphological characteristics of chitosan-flaxseed mucilage films enriched with Ziziphora clinopodioides essential oil (ZEO; 0%, 0.25%, and 0.5%) and sesame oil (SO; 0% and 0.75%) and to provide useful information for the preservation of minced trout fillet's using antimicrobial films under aerobic, vacuum, and modified atmosphere conditions for 16 days. The films showed thickness, tensile strength, puncture force, puncture deformation, water vapor transmission rate, water vapor permeability, swelling index, and oxygen permeability values ranging 0.082–0.86 mm, 33.34–46.83 MPa, 25.69–53.08 N, 11.45–28.45 mm, 17.48–26.73 g/m² h, 8.57–12.49 × 10⁻⁴ g mm/m² h Pa, 12.45–38.43%, and 3.02–13.32 × 10⁻¹² cm³/m² s Pa, respectively. The following order of effect on the microbial spoilage population of treated samples was found in the applied packaging methods: modified atmosphere packaging > vacuum packaging > aerobic packaging. The final microbial population of treated samples was 0.35–4.91 log CFU/g lower than the controls after 16 days of refrigerated storage. At the end of the storage, the total volatile base nitrogen, peroxide value, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances of untreated samples were 34.02–48.6 mg of N/100 g, 1.43–2.32 meq of peroxide/1000 g, and 3.33–4.24 mg of malondialdehyde/kg, respectively. The lowest corresponding values were recorded for the treated samples with ZEO 0.5% + SO 0.75% films by 14.26–17.73 mg of N/100 g, 0.48–0.86 meq of peroxide/1000 g, and 1.08–1.48 mg of malondialdehyde/kg, respectively.

Impact of flat roof–integrated solar photovoltaic installation mode on building fire safety

This paper quantifies experimentally the fire‐induced reradiation to roof surface created by flame extension on the back of the flat roof–integrated photovoltaic (PV) array. A gas burner underneath the tilted PV panels was employed as the fire source. The effects of the PV tilt angle, distance from PV panel to roof, and fire heat release rate (HRR) were investigated. The flame extension geometries and flame reradiation heat flux distribution were recorded. The results show that the flame extension length and vertical thickness (ie, the vertical distance from the back surface of the PV panel to the extension flame profile) are reduced with the increase of PV tilt angle and panel‐roof distance but are increased with increases in the fire HRR. A unified nondimensional HRR coupled with all these factors is proposed to quantify the flame extension geometry. Furthermore, a general equation based on the physical relationship between flame radiation and flame geometry is developed to characterize the distribution of reradiation heat flux on the roof surface with the nondimensional local flame thickness. Finally, suggestions regarding PV installations on flat roofs and the selection of roofing materials are given to decrease the possibility of flame propagation underneath the PV arrays.     

Application of the phase extension method in virus crystallography

The procedure for phase extension (PX) involves gradually extending the initial phases from low resolution (e.g. ～8?Å) to the high-resolution limit of a diffraction data set. Structural redundancy present in the viral capsids that display icosahedral symmetry results in a high degree of non-crystallographic symmetry (NCS), which in turn translates into higher phasing power and is critical for improving and extending phases to higher resolution. Greater completeness of the diffraction data and determination of a molecular replacement solution, which entails accurately identifying the virus particle orientation(s) and position(s), are important for the smooth progression of the PX procedure. In addition, proper definition of a molecular mask (envelope) around the NCS-asymmetric unit has been found to be important for the success of density modification procedures, such as density averaging and solvent flattening. Regardless of the degree of NCS, the PX method appears to work well in all space groups, provided an accurate molecular mask is used along with reasonable initial phases. However, in the cases with space group P1, in addition to requiring a molecular mask, starting the PX at a higher resolution (e.g. 6?Å) overcame the previously reported problems due to Babinet phases and phase flipping errors.
