Abstract Skeletal muscle atrophy is a common clinical feature of many acute and chronic conditions.Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed RNA Handle transcripts that are involved in various physiological and pathological processes, but their role in muscle atrophy remains unknown.Global circRNA expression profiling indicated that circRNAs a

Particle Probability Hypothesis Density Filter Based on Pairwise Markov Chains
Most multi-target tracking filters assume that one target and its observation follow a Hidden Markov Chain (HMC) model, but the implicit independence assumption of the HMC model is invalid in many practical applications, and a Pairwise Markov Chain (PMC) model is more universally suitable than the traditional Saddle Stand HMC model.A set of weighte
