Activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis (as might occur, for example, when the organism encounters a threat to allostatic balance) leads to the release of cortisol into the bloodstream and, ultimately, to altered neural functioning in particular brain regions (e.g., the prefrontal cortex (PFC)).Although previous studies suggest

The intelligence of fully mechanized working face is a key link in the intelligence of coal mines.The perception and analysis of hydraulic support state is the premise and foundation of intelligent control of fully mechanized working face.The pressure and posture of hydraulic supports are key state data that can be directly monitored.The fusion ana

It is known that feature selection/screening Wooden Kit for high-dimensional nonparametric models is an important but very difficult issue.In this paper, we first point out the limitations of existing screening methods.In particular, model-free sure independence screening methods, which are defined on random predictors, may completely miss some imp
