However, they can be tracked as a whole by view of group target. In order to decrease the amount of energy spent on active sensing and communications, a flexible boundary detecting model for group target tracking in WSN is proposed, in which, the number of sensors involved in target tracking is adjustable. Unlike traditional one or multiple individual targets, the group target usually occupies a large area. To obtain global estimated position of group target, a divide-merge algorithm using convex hull is designed. In this algorithm, group target’s boundary is divided into several small pieces, and each one is enclosed by a convex hull which is constructed by a cluster of boundary sensors. Then, the information of these small convex hulls is sent back to a sink. Finally, big convex hull merged from these small ones is considered as the group target’s contour. According to our metric of precision evaluation, the simulation experiments confirm the efficiency and accuracy of this algorithm.展开更多

The six PAK family members are classified into group Ⅰ(PAK1-3) and group Ⅱ(PAK4-6). Focus is currently shifting from group Ⅰ PAKs to group Ⅱ PAKs. Group Ⅱ PAKs play important roles in many fundamental cellular processes, some of which have particular significance in the development and progression of cancer. Because of their important functions, group Ⅱ PAKs have become popular potential drug target candidates. However, few group Ⅱ PAKs inhibitors have been reported, and most do not exhibit satisfactory kinase selectivity and "drug-like" properties. Isoform- and kinase-selective PAK inhibitors remain to be developed. This review describes the biological activities of group Ⅱ PAKs, the importance of group Ⅱ PAKs in the development and progression of gastrointestinal cancer, and smallmolecule inhibitors of group Ⅱ PAKs for the treatment of cancer.展开更多

First, the targets only occur in a part of the interested area; however, a large number of static sensors are distributed in the area to guarantee entire coverage, which leads to wastage of sensor resources. Second, many static sensors have to remain in active mode to track the targets, which causes an increase of energy consumption. To solve these problems, a target group tracking algorithm based on a hybrid sensor network is proposed in this paper, which includes static sensors and mobile sensors. First, an estimation algorithm is proposed to estimate the objective region by static sensors, which work in low-power sensing mode. Second, a movement algorithm based on sliding windows is proposed for mobile sensors to obtain the destinations. Simulation results show that this algorithm can reduce the number of mobile sensors participating in the tracking task and prolong the network lifetime.展开更多
