Asymptomatic patients (AP) travel through neighborhoods in communities. The mobility dynamics of the AP makes it hard to tag them with specific interests. The lack of efficient monitoring systems can enable the AP to infect several vulnerable people in the communities. This article studied the monitoring of AP through their mobility and trajectory towards reducing the stress of socio-economic complications in the case of pandemics. Mobility and Trajectory based Technique for Monitoring Asymptomatic Patients (MTT-MAP) was established. The time-ordered spatial and temporal trajectory records of the AP were captured through their activities. A grid-based index data structure was designed based on network topology, graph theory and trajectory analysis to cater for the continuous monitoring of the AP over time. Also, concurrent object localisation and recognition, branch and bound, and multi-object instance strategies were adopted. The MTT-MAP has shown efficient when experimented with GeoLife dataset and can be integrated with state-of-the-art patients monitoring systems.

To address the data storage, management, analysis, and mining of ship targets, the object-oriented method was employed to design the overall structure and functional modules of a ship trajectory data management and analysis system (STDMAS). This paper elaborates the detailed design and technical information of the system’s logical structure, module composition, physical deployment, and main functional modules such as database management, trajectory analysis, trajectory mining, and situation analysis. A ship identification method based on the motion features was put forward. With the method, ship trajectory was first partitioned into sub-trajectories in various behavioral patterns, and effective motion features were then extracted. Machine learning algorithms were utilized for training and testing to identify many types of ships. STDMAS implements such functions as database management, trajectory analysis, historical situation review, and ship identification and outlier detection based on trajectory classification. STDMAS can satisfy the practical needs for the data management, analysis, and mining of maritime targets because it is easy to apply, maintain, and expand.

Background: Examining appetitive traits with person-centered analytical approaches can advance the understanding of appetitive phenotype trajectories across infancy, their origins, and influences upon them. The objective of the present study was to empirically describe appetitive phenotype trajectories in infancy and examine the associations with infant and parent factors.Materials and Methods: In this longitudinal cohort study of Australian infants, parents completed three online surveys ~3 months apart, beginning when the infant was <6 months. Appetitive traits were assessed with the Baby Eating Behavior Questionnaire (BEBQ) and parent feeding practices with the Feeding Practices and Structure Questionnaire (FPSQ) infant and toddler version. Parent demographics and cognitions were also collected. Infant weight and length were transcribed from health records and converted to a BMI z-score. Group-based trajectory modeling identified appetitive phenotype trajectories using the BEBQ. Multilevel modeling examined change in feeding practices and child BMI z-score over time by appetitive phenotype trajectories.Results: At time 1, 380 participants completed the survey (mean infant age 98 days), 178 at time 2 (mean infant age 198 days), and 154 at time 3 (mean infant age 303 days). Three multi-trajectory appetitive phenotype groups were identified and labeled as (Phenotype 1) food avoidant trending toward low food approach (21.32% of infants), (Phenotype 2) persistently balanced (50.53% of infants), and (Phenotype 3) high and continuing food approach (28.16% of infants). Formula feeding was more common in Phenotype 1 (p = 0.016). Parents of infants in Phenotype 1 were more likely to rate them as being more difficult than average, compared to infants with phenotypes 2 or 3. Phenotype 2 had the greatest increase in persuasive feeding over time [0.30; 95% CI (0.12, −0.47)].Conclusions: Distinct multi-trajectory appetitive phenotype groups emerge early in infancy. These trajectories appear to have origins in both infant and parent characteristics as well as parent behaviors and cognitions. The infant multi-trajectory appetitive phenotype groups suggest that for some infants, difficulties in self-regulating appetite emerge early in life. Investigation of infant multi-trajectory appetitive phenotype groups that utilize a range of measures, examine relationships to key covariates and outcomes, and extend from infancy into childhood are needed.

Background: Tet1 protects against house dust mite (HDM)-induced lung inflammation in mice and alters the lung methylome and transcriptome. We explored the role of Tet1 in individual lung epithelial cell types in HDM-induced inflammation. Methods: A model of HDM-induced lung inflammation was established in Tet1 knockout and littermate wildtype mice. EpCAM+ lung epithelial cells were isolated. Libraries were generated using the 10X Chromium workflow and sequenced. ScRNA-seq analysis was performed using Cell Ranger, scAlign, and Seurat. Cell types were labeled using known markers. Enriched pathways were identified using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis. Transcription factor (TF) activity was analyzed by DoRothEA. Single-cell trajectory analysis was performed with Monocle to explore Alveolar type 2 (AT2) cell differentiation. Results: AT2 cells were the most abundant among the eight EpCAM+ lung epithelial cell types. HDM challenge increased the percentage of alveolar progenitor cells (AP), broncho alveolar stem cells (BAS), and goblet cells, and decreased the percentage of AT2 and ciliated cells. Bulk and cell-type-specific analysis identified genes subject to Tet1 regulation and linked to augmented lung inflammation, including alarms, detoxification enzymes and oxidative stress response genes, and gene in tissue repair. The transcriptomic regulation was accompanied by alterations in TF activities. Trajectory analysis supports that HDM may enhance the differentiation of AP and BAS cells into AT2 cells, independent of Tet1. Conclusions: Collectively, lung epithelial cells had common and unique transcriptomic signatures of allergic lung inflammation. Tet1 deletion altered transcriptomic networks in various lung epithelial cells, with an overall effect of promoting allergen-induced lung inflammation.

This review uses person-centered research and data analysis strategies to discuss the conceptualization and measurement of appetite self-regulation (ASR) phenotypes and trajectories in childhood (from infancy to about ages 6 or 7 years). Research that is person-centered provides strategies that increase the possibilities for investigating ASR phenotypes. We first examine the utility of examining underlying phenotypes using latent profile/class analysis drawing on cross-sectional data. The use of trajectory analysis to investigate developmental change is then discussed, with attention to phenotypes using trajectories of individual behaviors as well as phenotypes based on multi-trajectory modeling. Data analysis strategies and measurement approaches from recent examples of these person-centered approaches to the conceptualization and investigation of appetite self-regulation and its development in childhood are examined. Where relevant, examples from older children as well as developmental, clinical and educational psychology are drawn on to discuss when and how person-centered approaches can be used. We argue that there is scope to incorporate recent advances in biological and psychoneurological knowledge about appetite self-regulation as well as fundamental processes in the development of general self-regulation to enhance the examination of phenotypes and their trajectories across childhood (and beyond). The discussion and conclusion suggest directions for future research and highlight the potential of person-centered approaches to progress knowledge about the development of appetite self-regulation in childhood.
