Learning-enabled decision-making for autonomous driving: framework and methodology by Huang, Zhiyu

“…In the cost module, we focus on learning personalized cost functions underlying human driving behaviors using inverse reinforcement learning (IRL). We propose a maximum entropy IRL algorithm that infers the reward function based on a structural assumption about discrete latent intentions guiding continuous low-level control actions. …”

G-cleave LC3B biosensor: monitoring autophagy and assessing resveratrol's synergistic impact on doxorubicin-induced apoptosis in breast cancer cells by Liao, C, Long, Y, Tsai, M, Lin, C, Hsu, K, Lee, C

“…In this study, we developed a non-invasive autophagy detection system (NIADS-autophagy, also called G-cleave LC3B biosensor) by integrating a split-luciferase-based biosensor with an LC3B cleavage sequence, which swiftly identified classic autophagic triggers, such as Earle's Balanced Salt Solution and serum deprivation, through protease-mediated degradation pathways. …”
