Molecular identification of Bactrocera passiflorae (Diptera: Tephritidae): challenge and solution for DNA barcoding

<p>Fruit flies cause significant damage to crop and fruit production worldwide. Therefore it is essential to identify these organisms to species level, however, immature stages are often impossible to be identified morphologically, thus the application of DNA barcoding has greatly assisted in species identification. Nuclear, mitochondrial pseudo-COI (NUMT) can be co-amplified with mitochondrial DNA when using generic primers and therefore impair the efficacy of DNA barcoding. This study detected two types of NUMTs from<em> B. passiflorae, </em>one of them is novel. Therefore the new finding will assist future species identification by avoiding misidentification using ambiguous NUMT sequences. In addition, this study have developed primers to target the COI gene of <em>B. passiflorae</em>, not the NUMT copies. The newly designed primers have demonstrated its efficiency in amplifying the Mt-COI of <em>B. passiflorae </em>and can be used in routine diagnostics.</p>

Spotify Million Playlist: Recsys Challenge 2018 Dataset

<p>Spotify Million Playlist Dataset Challenge</p> <p>Summary</p> <p>The Spotify Million Playlist Dataset Challenge consists of a dataset and evaluation to enable research in music recommendations. It is a continuation of the RecSys Challenge 2018, which ran from January to July 2018. The dataset contains 1,000,000 playlists, including playlist titles and track titles, created by users on the Spotify platform between January 2010 and October 2017. The evaluation task is automatic playlist continuation: given a seed playlist title and/or initial set of tracks in a playlist, to predict the subsequent tracks in that playlist. This is an open-ended challenge intended to encourage research in music recommendations, and no prizes will be awarded (other than bragging rights).</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Playlists like Today&rsquo;s Top Hits and RapCaviar have millions of loyal followers, while Discover Weekly and Daily Mix are just a couple of our personalized playlists made especially to match your unique musical tastes.</p> <p>Our users love playlists too. In fact, the Digital Music Alliance, in their 2018 Annual Music Report, state that 54% of consumers say that playlists are replacing albums in their listening habits.</p> <p>But our users don&rsquo;t love just listening to playlists, they also love creating them. To date, over 4 billion playlists have been created and shared by Spotify users. People create playlists for all sorts of reasons: some playlists group together music categorically (e.g., by genre, artist, year, or city), by mood, theme, or occasion (e.g., romantic, sad, holiday), or for a particular purpose (e.g., focus, workout). Some playlists are even made to land a dream job, or to send a message to someone special.</p> <p>The other thing we love here at Spotify is playlist research. By learning from the playlists that people create, we can learn all sorts of things about the deep relationship between people and music. Why do certain songs go together? What is the difference between &ldquo;Beach Vibes&rdquo; and &ldquo;Forest Vibes&rdquo;? And what words do people use to describe which playlists?</p> <p>By learning more about nature of playlists, we may also be able to suggest other tracks that a listener would enjoy in the context of a given playlist. This can make playlist creation easier, and ultimately help people find more of the music they love.</p> <p>Dataset</p> <p>To enable this type of research at scale, in 2018 we sponsored the RecSys Challenge 2018, which introduced the Million Playlist Dataset (MPD) to the research community. Sampled from the over 4 billion public playlists on Spotify, this dataset of 1 million playlists consist of over 2 million unique tracks by nearly 300,000 artists, and represents the largest public dataset of music playlists in the world. The dataset includes public playlists created by US Spotify users between January 2010 and November 2017. The challenge ran from January to July 2018, and received 1,467 submissions from 410 teams. A summary of the challenge and the top scoring submissions was published in the ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology.</p> <p>In September 2020, we re-released the dataset as an open-ended challenge on AIcrowd.com. The dataset can now be downloaded by registered participants from the Resources page.</p> <p>Each playlist in the MPD contains a playlist title, the track list (including track IDs and metadata), and other metadata fields (last edit time, number of playlist edits, and more). All data is anonymized to protect user privacy. Playlists are sampled with some randomization, are manually filtered for playlist quality and to remove offensive content, and have some dithering and fictitious tracks added to them. As such, the dataset is not representative of the true distribution of playlists on the Spotify platform, and must not be interpreted as such in any research or analysis performed on the dataset.</p> <p>Dataset Contains</p> <p>1000 examples of each scenario:</p> <p>Title only (no tracks) Title and first track Title and first 5 tracks First 5 tracks only Title and first 10 tracks First 10 tracks only Title and first 25 tracks Title and 25 random tracks Title and first 100 tracks Title and 100 random tracks</p> <p>Download Link</p> <p>Full Details: <a href="https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/spotify-million-playlist-dataset-challenge">https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/spotify-million-playlist-dataset-challenge</a><br> Download Link: <a href="https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/spotify-million-playlist-dataset-challenge/dataset_files">https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/spotify-million-playlist-dataset-challenge/dataset_files</a></p>

Challenges for room temperature operation of electrically pumped GeSn lasers

<p><strong>This data is accessible for bona-fide users upon request to the point of contact. &nbsp; </strong></p> <p>Data for the paper with the following abstract:</p> <div> <p>Recent demonstrations of room‐temperature lasing in optically pumped GeSn show promise for future CMOS compatible lasers for Si‐photonics applications. However, challenges remain for electrically pumped devices. Investigation of the processes that limit device performance is therefore vital in aiding the production of future commercial devices. In this work, a combined experimental and modelling approach is utilised to explore the dominant loss processes in current devices. By manipulating the band structure of functioning devices using high hydrostatic pressure techniques at low temperature, the dominant carrier recombination pathways are identified. This reveals that 93&plusmn;5% of the threshold current is attributable to defect‐related recombination at a temperature,</p> <p>T = 85 K. Furthermore, carrier occupation of L‐valley states (carrier leakage) is responsible for 1.1&plusmn; 0.3% of the threshold current, but this sharply increases to 50% with a decrease of just 30 meV in the L‐Ŵ separation energy. This indicates that thermal broadening of a similar order may reproduce these adverse effects, limiting device performance at higher temperatures. Temperature dependent calculations show that carrier occupation of indirect valley L‐states strongly affects the transparency carrier density and is therefore very sensitive to the Sn composition, leading to an effective operational temperature range for given Sn compositions and strain values. Recommendations for future device designs are proposed based on band structure and growth optimisations.</p> <p>Paper at: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-60686-3&nbsp;</p> </div>

Advancements and challenges in strained group-IV-based optoelectronic materials stressed by ion beam treatment

<p><strong>This data is accessible for bona-fide users upon request to the point of contact.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Data for the paper with the following abstract:</p> <p>In this perspective article, we discuss the application of ion implantation to manipulate strain (by either neutralising or inducing compressive or tensile states) in suspended thin films. Emphasising the pressing need for a high-mobility silicon-compatible transistor or a direct bandgap group-IV semiconductor that is compatible with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology, we underscore the distinctive features of different methods of ion beam-induced alterations of material morphology. The article examines the precautions needed during experimental procedures and data analysis and explores routes for potential scalable adoption by the semiconductor industry. Finally, as an example of an application we briefly discuss how this highly controllable strain-inducing technique can facilitate enhanced manipulation of impurity-based spin quantum bits (qubits).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Paper published as:&nbsp;</p> <p>Mateus G Masteghin <em>et al</em> 2024 <em>J.
