The protein machine responsible for this process is the divisome, a transient assembly of more than 30 proteins in and on the surface of the cytoplasmic membrane. Together, they constrict the cell envelope and remodel the peptidoglycan layer to eventually split the cell into two. For Escherichia coli, most molecular players involved in this process have probably been identified, but obtaining the quantitative information needed for a mechanistic understanding can often not be achieved from experiments in vivo alone. Since the discovery of the Z-ring more than 30 years ago, in vitro reconstitution experiments have been crucial to shed light on molecular processes normally hidden in the complex environment of the living cell. In this review, we summarize how rebuilding the divisome from purified components – or at least parts of it - have been instrumental to obtain the detailed mechanistic understanding of the bacterial cell division machinery that we have today."}],"date_updated":"2024-01-23T08:37:13Z","oa_version":"Published Version","type":"journal_article","month":"01","_id":"14834","acknowledgement":"We acknowledge members of the Loose laboratory at ISTA for helpful discussions—in particular M.

The current models place GN at the Golgi apparatus (GA), where it mediates secretion/recycling, and at the plasma membrane (PM) presumably contributing to clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). The mechanistic basis of the developmental function of GN, distinct from the other ARF-GEFs including its closest homologue GNOM-LIKE1 (GNL1), remains elusive. Insights from this study largely extend the current notions of GN function. We show that GN, but not GNL1, localizes to the cell periphery at long-lived structures distinct from clathrin-coated pits, while CME and secretion proceed normally in <jats:italic>gn</jats:italic> knockouts. The functional GN mutant variant GN<jats:sup>fewerroots</jats:sup>, absent from the GA, suggests that the cell periphery is the major site of GN action responsible for its developmental function. Following inhibition by Brefeldin A, GN, but not GNL1, relocates to the PM likely on exocytic vesicles, suggesting selective molecular associations en route to the cell periphery. A study of GN-GNL1 chimeric ARF-GEFs indicates that all GN domains contribute to the specific GN function in a partially redundant manner. Together, this study offers significant steps toward the elucidation of the mechanism underlying unique cellular and development functions of GNOM.","lang":"eng"}],"type":"journal_article","month":"02","oa_version":"Published Version","citation":{"ista":"Adamowski M, Matijevic I, Friml J. 2024.

These soluble residents of the ER are themselves endowed with an ER retrieval signal that enables the cell to bring the escaped residents back from the Golgi. Here, by using purified proteins, we showed that Nicotiana tabacum phytaspase, a plant aspartate-specific protease, introduces two breaks at the C-terminus of the N. tabacum ER resident calreticulin-3. These cleavages resulted in removal of either a dipeptide or a hexapeptide from the C-terminus of calreticulin-3 encompassing part or all of the ER retrieval signal. Consistently, expression of the calreticulin-3 derivative mimicking the phytaspase cleavage product in Nicotiana benthamiana cells demonstrated loss of the ER accumulation of the protein. Notably, upon its escape from the ER, calreticulin-3 was further processed by an unknown protease(s) to generate the free N-terminal (N) domain of calreticulin-3, which was ultimately secreted into the apoplast. Our study thus identified a specific proteolytic enzyme capable of precise detachment of the ER retrieval signal from a plant ER resident protein, with implications for the further fate of the escaped resident."}],"date_updated":"2024-01-10T13:41:10Z","month":"11","type":"journal_article","oa_version":"Published Version","_id":"14776","acknowledgement":"We thank C.U.T.

We have previously found that astroglial Cx43 controls synaptic glutamate levels and allows for activity-dependent glutamine release to sustain physiological synaptic transmissions and cognitiogns. However, whether Cx43 is important for the release of synaptic vesicles, which is a critical component of synaptic efficacy, remains unanswered. Here, using transgenic mice with a glial conditional knockout of Cx43 (Cx43−/−), we investigate whether and how astrocytes regulate the release of synaptic vesicles from hippocampal synapses. We report that CA1 pyramidal neurons and their synapses develop normally in the absence of astroglial Cx43. However, a significant impairment in synaptic vesicle distribution and release dynamics were observed. In particular, the FM1-43 assays performed using two-photon live imaging and combined with multi-electrode array stimulation in acute hippocampal slices, revealed a slower rate of synaptic vesicle release in Cx43−/− mice. Furthermore, paired-pulse recordings showed that synaptic vesicle release probability was also reduced and is dependent on glutamine supply via Cx43 hemichannel (HC). Taken together, we have uncovered a role for Cx43 in regulating presynaptic functions by controlling the rate and probability of synaptic vesicle release. Our findings further highlight the significance of astroglial Cx43 in synaptic transmission and efficacy.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","month":"04","type":"journal_article","volume":12,"date_created":"2024-01-10T09:46:35Z","file_date_updated":"2024-01-16T09:26:52Z","acknowledgement":"This research was funded by grants from the European Research Council (Consolidator grant #683154) and European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Networks, grant #722053, EU-GliaPhD) to N.R., as well as from FP7-PEOPLE Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship for career development (grant #622289) to G.C.

This work presents the first method for providing formal reach-avoid guarantees, which combine and generalize stability and safety guarantees, with a tolerable probability threshold p in [0,1] over the infinite time horizon. Our method leverages advances in machine learning literature and it represents formal certificates as neural networks. In particular, we learn a certificate in the form of a reach-avoid supermartingale (RASM), a novel notion that we introduce in this work. Our RASMs provide reachability and avoidance guarantees by imposing constraints on what can be viewed as a stochastic extension of level sets of Lyapunov functions for deterministic systems. Our approach solves several important problems -- it can be used to learn a control policy from scratch, to verify a reach-avoid specification for a fixed control policy, or to fine-tune a pre-trained policy if it does not satisfy the reach-avoid specification. We validate our approach on 3 stochastic non-linear reinforcement learning tasks.","lang":"eng"}],"page":"11926-11935","date_created":"2024-01-18T07:44:31Z","volume":37,"year":"2023","acknowledgement":"This work was supported in part by the ERC-2020-AdG 101020093, ERC CoG 863818 (FoRM-SMArt) and the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Grant Agreement No. 665385.","_id":"14830","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2374-3468"],"issn":["2159-5399"]},"quality_controlled":"1","doi":"10.1609/aaai.v37i10.26407","project":[{"name":"Vigilant Algorithmic Monitoring of Software","_id":"62781420-2b32-11ec-9570-8d9b63373d4d","call_identifier":"H2020","grant_number":"101020093"},{"name":"Formal Methods for Stochastic Models: Algorithms and Applications","call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"0599E47C-7A3F-11EA-A408-12923DDC885E","grant_number":"863818"},{"call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"2564DBCA-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"International IST Doctoral Program","grant_number":"665385"}],"issue":"10","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"conference":{"name":"AAAI: Conference on Artificial Intelligence","location":"Washington, DC, United States","start_date":"2023-02-07","end_date":"2023-02-14"},"keyword":["General Medicine"],"day":"26","author":[{"id":"294AA7A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-4681-1699","full_name":"Zikelic, Dorde","last_name":"Zikelic","first_name":"Dorde"},{"full_name":"Lechner, Mathias","id":"3DC22916-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Lechner","first_name":"Mathias"},{"last_name":"Henzinger","first_name":"Thomas A","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-2985-7724","full_name":"Henzinger, Thomas A"},{"first_name":"Krishnendu","last_name":"Chatterjee","id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu"}],"title":"Learning control policies for stochastic systems with reach-avoid guarantees","arxiv":1,"department":[{"_id":"ToHe"},{"_id":"KrCh"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publisher":"Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence","ec_funded":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","publication":"Proceedings of the 37th AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence"},{"publication":"Angewandte Chemie","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","tmp":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0)","short":"CC BY-NC (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by_nc.png","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/legalcode"},"article_type":"original","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publisher":"Wiley","department":[{"_id":"PaSc"}],"title":"Der starre Kern und die flexible Oberfläche von Amyloidfibrillen – Magic‐Angle‐Spinning NMR Spektroskopie von aromatischen Resten","article_number":"e202219314","author":[{"last_name":"Becker","first_name":"Lea Marie","id":"36336939-eb97-11eb-a6c2-c83f1214ca79","orcid":"0000-0002-6401-5151","full_name":"Becker, Lea Marie"},{"last_name":"Berbon","first_name":"Mélanie","full_name":"Berbon, Mélanie"},{"first_name":"Alicia","last_name":"Vallet","full_name":"Vallet, Alicia"},{"full_name":"Grelard, Axelle","last_name":"Grelard","first_name":"Axelle"},{"full_name":"Morvan, Estelle","last_name":"Morvan","first_name":"Estelle"},{"full_name":"Bardiaux, Benjamin","last_name":"Bardiaux","first_name":"Benjamin"},{"full_name":"Lichtenecker, Roman","last_name":"Lichtenecker","first_name":"Roman"},{"full_name":"Ernst, Matthias","first_name":"Matthias","last_name":"Ernst"},{"full_name":"Loquet, Antoine","first_name":"Antoine","last_name":"Loquet"},{"id":"7B541462-FAF6-11E9-A490-E8DFE5697425","orcid":"0000-0002-9350-7606","full_name":"Schanda, Paul","last_name":"Schanda","first_name":"Paul"}],"file":[{"date_created":"2024-01-23T08:57:01Z","access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2024-01-23T08:57:01Z","file_id":"14876","checksum":"98e68d370159f7be52a3d7c8a8ee1198","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_size":1004676,"creator":"dernst","success":1,"file_name":"2023_AngewChem_Becker.pdf"}],"day":"02","keyword":["General Medicine"],"language":[{"iso":"ger"}],"issue":"19","doi":"10.1002/ange.202219314","quality_controlled":"1","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0044-8249"],"eissn":["1521-3757"]},"_id":"14835","acknowledgement":"Wir danken Albert A.

Whereas it is well established that single-cell migration is often guided by gradients of chemokines and other chemoattractants, it remains poorly understood how these gradients are generated, maintained, and modulated. By combining experimental data with theory on leukocyte chemotaxis guided by the G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) CCR7, we demonstrate that in addition to its role as the sensory receptor that steers migration, CCR7 also acts as a generator and a modulator of chemotactic gradients. Upon exposure to the CCR7 ligand CCL19, dendritic cells (DCs) effectively internalize the receptor and ligand as part of the canonical GPCR desensitization response. We show that CCR7 internalization also acts as an effective sink for the chemoattractant, dynamically shaping the spatiotemporal distribution of the chemokine. This mechanism drives complex collective migration patterns, enabling DCs to create or sharpen chemotactic gradients. We further show that these self-generated gradients can sustain the long-range guidance of DCs, adapt collective migration patterns to the size and geometry of the environment, and provide a guidance cue for other comigrating cells. Such a dual role of CCR7 as a GPCR that both senses and consumes its ligand can thus provide a novel mode of cellular self-organization."}],"oa_version":"Published Version","type":"journal_article","month":"09","_id":"14274","year":"2023","acknowledgement":"We thank I. de Vries and the Scientific Service Units (Life Sciences, Bioimaging, Nanofabrication, Preclinical and Miba Machine Shop) of the Institute of Science and Technology Austria for excellent support, as well as all the rotation students assisting in the laboratory work (B.

These deviations from ideality impact the process's overall efficiency and the effectiveness of the equipment. To recognize the associated non-ideality, one needs to have enough understanding of the formulation of the equations and in-depth knowledge of the residence time distribution (RTD) data of real reactors. In the current work, step input and pulse input were used to create RTD data for Cascade continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTRs). For the aforementioned configuration, experiments were run at various flow rates to validate the developed characteristic equations. To produce RTD data, distilled water was utilized as the flowing fluid, and NaOH was the tracer substance. The ideal behavior of tracer concentration exits age distribution, and cumulative fraction for each setup and each input was plotted and experimental results were compared with perfect behavior. Deviation of concentration exit age distribution and cumulative fractional distribution from ideal behavior is more in pulse input as compared to a step input. For ideal cases, the exit age distribution curve and cumulative fraction curves are independent of the type of input. But a significant difference was observed for the two cases, which may be due to non-measurable fluctuations in volumetric flow rate, non-achievement of instant injection of tracer in case of pulse input, and slight variations in the sampling period. Further, with increasing flow rate, concentration, exit age, and cumulative fractional curves shifted upward, and this behavior matches with the actual case.","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2023-08-16T09:08:11Z"},{"publication":"eLife","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"article_type":"original","ec_funded":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","scopus_import":"1","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","publisher":"eLife Sciences Publications","department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"FyKo"}],"article_number":"75842","title":"Heterogeneity of the GFP fitness landscape and data-driven protein design","author":[{"first_name":"Louisa","last_name":"Gonzalez Somermeyer","full_name":"Gonzalez Somermeyer, Louisa","id":"4720D23C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0001-9139-5383"},{"first_name":"Aubin","last_name":"Fleiss","full_name":"Fleiss, Aubin"},{"full_name":"Mishin, Alexander S","first_name":"Alexander S","last_name":"Mishin"},{"last_name":"Bozhanova","first_name":"Nina G","full_name":"Bozhanova, Nina G"},{"full_name":"Igolkina, Anna A","first_name":"Anna A","last_name":"Igolkina"},{"first_name":"Jens","last_name":"Meiler","full_name":"Meiler, Jens"},{"last_name":"Alaball Pujol","first_name":"Maria-Elisenda","full_name":"Alaball Pujol, Maria-Elisenda"},{"full_name":"Putintseva, Ekaterina V","first_name":"Ekaterina V","last_name":"Putintseva"},{"first_name":"Karen S","last_name":"Sarkisyan","full_name":"Sarkisyan, Karen S"},{"last_name":"Kondrashov","first_name":"Fyodor","orcid":"0000-0001-8243-4694","id":"44FDEF62-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Kondrashov, Fyodor"}],"day":"05","file":[{"checksum":"7573c28f44028ab0cc81faef30039e44","date_updated":"2022-06-20T07:44:19Z","file_id":"11454","access_level":"open_access","date_created":"2022-06-20T07:44:19Z","success":1,"file_name":"2022_eLife_Somermeyer.pdf","creator":"dernst","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_size":5297213}],"keyword":["General Immunology and Microbiology","General Biochemistry","Genetics and Molecular Biology","General Medicine","General Neuroscience"],"isi":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"project":[{"_id":"26580278-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020","name":"Characterizing the fitness landscape on population and global scales","grant_number":"771209"},{"grant_number":"665385","name":"International IST Doctoral Program","_id":"2564DBCA-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"doi":"10.7554/elife.75842","quality_controlled":"1","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2050-084X"]},"_id":"11448","acknowledgement":"We thank Ondřej Draganov, Rodrigo Redondo, Bor Kavčič, Mia Juračić and Andrea Pauli for discussion and technical advice.

However, generalisation of these findings is limited due to scarceness of systematic data on fitness landscapes of proteins with a defined evolutionary relationship. We characterized the fitness peaks of four orthologous fluorescent proteins with a broad range of sequence divergence. While two of the four studied fitness peaks were sharp, the other two were considerably flatter, being almost entirely free of epistatic interactions. Mutationally robust proteins, characterized by a flat fitness peak, were not optimal templates for machine-learning-driven protein design – instead, predictions were more accurate for fragile proteins with epistatic landscapes.

The quantum hardware is used to implement a variational wave function and measure observables, whereas the classical computer is used to store and update the variational parameters. The optimization landscape of expressive variational ansätze is however dominated by large regions in parameter space, known as barren plateaus, with vanishing gradients, which prevents efficient optimization. In this work we propose a general algorithm to avoid barren plateaus in the initialization and throughout the optimization. To this end we define a notion of weak barren plateaus (WBPs) based on the entropies of local reduced density matrices. The presence of WBPs can be efficiently quantified using recently introduced shadow tomography of the quantum state with a classical computer. We demonstrate that avoidance of WBPs suffices to ensure sizable gradients in the initialization. In addition, we demonstrate that decreasing the gradient step size, guided by the entropies allows WBPs to be avoided during the optimization process. This paves the way for efficient barren plateau-free optimization on near-term devices.

MazF cleaves single-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) regions at adenine–cytosine–adenine (ACA) sequences in the bacterium Escherichia coli. The MazEF system has been used in various biotechnology and synthetic biology applications. In this study, we infer how ectopic mazF overexpression affects production of heterologous proteins. To this end, we quantified the levels of fluorescent proteins expressed in E. coli from reporters translated from the ACA-containing or ACA-less messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Additionally, we addressed the impact of the 5′-untranslated region of these reporter mRNAs under the same conditions by comparing expression from mRNAs that comprise (canonical mRNA) or lack this region (leaderless mRNA).\r\nResults: Flow cytometry analysis indicates that during mazF overexpression, fluorescent proteins are translated from the canonical as well as leaderless mRNAs. Our analysis further indicates that longer mazF overexpression generally increases the concentration of fluorescent proteins translated from ACA-less mRNAs, however it also substantially increases bacterial population heterogeneity. Finally, our results suggest that the strength and duration of mazF overexpression should be optimized for each experimental setup, to maximize the heterologous protein production and minimize the amount of phenotypic heterogeneity in bacterial populations, which is unfavorable in biotechnological processes.","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2022-08-01T09:27:40Z","month":"05","type":"journal_article","oa_version":"Published Version","volume":15,"date_created":"2022-08-01T09:04:27Z","file_date_updated":"2022-08-01T09:24:42Z","acknowledgement":"We acknowledge the Max Perutz Labs FACS Facility together with Thomas Sauer.

How its properties evolve from isolated particles to the condensed phase is an open question of both fundamental and practical relevance. Here, we review recent work that has advanced the study of photoionization dynamics from atoms to molecules, clusters and the liquid phase. The first measurements of molecular photoionization delays have revealed the attosecond dynamics of electron emission from a molecular shape resonance and their sensitivity to the molecular potential. Using electron-ion coincidence spectroscopy these measurements have been extended from isolated molecules to clusters. A continuous increase of the delays with the water-cluster size has been observed up to a size of 4-5 molecules, followed by a saturation towards larger clusters. Comparison with calculations has revealed a correlation of the time delay with the spatial extension of the created electron hole. Using cylindrical liquid-microjet techniques, these measurements have also been extended to liquid water, revealing a delay relative to isolated water molecules that was very similar to the largest water clusters studied. Detailed modeling based on Monte-Carlo simulations confirmed that these delays are dominated by the contributions of the first two solvation shells, which agrees with the results of the cluster measurements. These combined results open the perspective of experimentally characterizing the delocalization of electronic wave functions in complex systems and studying their evolution on attosecond time scales."}],"date_updated":"2023-08-22T07:26:39Z","type":"journal_article","oa_version":"Published Version","month":"06","page":"520-528","_id":"13993","year":"2022","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.2533/chimia.2022.520","open_access":"1"}],"date_published":"2022-06-29T00:00:00Z","oa":1,"publication_status":"published","citation":{"ama":"Gong X, Jordan I, Huppert M, et al.

Here, we model this process analytically, in the plausible setting of a highly polygenic, quantitative trait that experiences a sudden shift in the fitness optimum. We show how the mean phenotype changes over time, depending on the effect sizes of loci that contribute to variance in the trait, and characterize the allele dynamics at these loci. Notably, we describe the two phases of the allele dynamics: The first is a rapid phase, in which directional selection introduces small frequency differences between alleles whose effects are aligned with or opposed to the shift, ultimately leading to small differences in their probability of fixation during a second, longer phase, governed by stabilizing selection. As we discuss, key results should hold in more general settings and have important implications for efforts to identify the genetic basis of adaptation in humans and other species.","lang":"eng"}],"citation":{"ama":"Hayward L, Sella G.

For example, in women with uncomplicated pregnancies, haemoglobin count decreases of 0.12 g/L (95% CI −0.16, −0.09) significantly per gestation week (p value <.001). Interestingly, this decrease is three times more pronounced in women who will develop pregnancy-induced hypertension, with an additional decrease of 0.39 g/L (95% CI −0.51, −0.26). We also confirm that obstetric complications and white CBC predict the likelihood of giving birth earlier during pregnancy.\r\n\r\nConclusion: We provide a comprehensive description of the associations between haematological changes through pregnancy and three major obstetric complications to support strategies for prevention, early-diagnosis and maternal care."}],"date_updated":"2023-08-04T09:36:21Z","type":"journal_article","oa_version":"Published Version","month":"11","page":"566-575","_id":"12235","year":"2022","acknowledgement":"This project was funded by an SNSF Eccellenza Grant to MRR (PCEGP3-181181), and by core funding from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria.

This motivates the development of efficient approaches to facilitate the control of such systems and enable the preparation of nontrivial quantum states. Here we formulate an approach to control quantum systems based on matrix product states (MPSs). We compare counterdiabatic and leakage minimization approaches to the so-called local steering problem that consists in finding the best value of the control parameters for generating a unitary evolution of the specific MPS in a given direction. In order to benchmark the different approaches, we apply them to the generalization of the PXP model known to exhibit coherent quantum dynamics due to quantum many-body scars. We find that the leakage-based approach generally outperforms the counterdiabatic framework and use it to construct a Floquet model with quantum scars. We perform the first steps towards global trajectory optimization and demonstrate entanglement steering capabilities in the generalized PXP model. Finally, we apply our leakage minimization approach to construct quantum scars in the periodically driven nonintegrable Ising model."}],"date_updated":"2023-01-30T11:05:23Z","volume":3,"date_created":"2023-01-16T10:01:56Z","file_date_updated":"2023-01-30T11:02:50Z","external_id":{"arxiv":["2204.02899"]},"status":"public","intvolume":"         3","citation":{"ama":"Ljubotina M, Roos B, Abanin DA, Serbyn M.

However, most tools currently used to explore connectivity have low throughput, low selectivity, or limited accessibility. Here, we report the development of an improved packaging system for the production of the highly neurotropic RVdGenvA-CVS-N2c rabies viral vectors, yielding titers orders of magnitude higher with no background contamination, at a fraction of the production time, while preserving the efficiency of transsynaptic labeling. Along with the production pipeline, we developed suites of ‘starter’ AAV and bicistronic RVdG-CVS-N2c vectors, enabling retrograde labeling from a wide range of neuronal populations, tailored for diverse experimental requirements. We demonstrate the power and flexibility of the new system by uncovering hidden local and distal inhibitory connections in the mouse hippocampal formation and by imaging the functional properties of a cortical microcircuit across weeks. Our novel production pipeline provides a convenient approach to generate new rabies vectors, while our toolkit flexibly and efficiently expands the current capacity to label, manipulate and image the neuronal activity of interconnected neuronal circuits in vitro and in vivo."}],"date_updated":"2023-08-04T10:29:48Z","date_created":"2023-01-16T10:04:15Z","file_date_updated":"2023-01-30T11:50:53Z","volume":11,"project":[{"grant_number":"692692","_id":"25B7EB9E-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020","name":"Biophysics and circuit function of a giant cortical glumatergic synapse"},{"_id":"2634E9D2-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020","name":"Circuits of Visual Attention","grant_number":"756502"},{"grant_number":"Z00312","_id":"25C5A090-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"FWF","name":"The Wittgenstein Prize"},{"_id":"266D407A-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Neuronal networks of salience and spatial detection in the murine superior colliculus","grant_number":"LT000256"},{"grant_number":"ALTF 1098-2017","_id":"264FEA02-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Connecting sensory with motor processing in the superior colliculus"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["General Immunology and Microbiology","General Biochemistry","Genetics and Molecular Biology","General Medicine","General Neuroscience"],"isi":1,"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2050-084X"]},"quality_controlled":"1","doi":"10.7554/elife.79848","department":[{"_id":"MaJö"},{"_id":"PeJo"}],"pmid":1,"publisher":"eLife Sciences Publications","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","article_type":"original","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"article_processing_charge":"No","scopus_import":"1","ec_funded":1,"publication":"eLife","file":[{"access_level":"open_access","date_created":"2023-01-30T11:50:53Z","checksum":"5a2a65e3e7225090c3d8199f3bbd7b7b","date_updated":"2023-01-30T11:50:53Z","file_id":"12463","creator":"dernst","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_size":8506811,"success":1,"file_name":"2022_eLife_Sumser.pdf"}],"day":"15","author":[{"last_name":"Sumser","first_name":"Anton L","id":"3320A096-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-4792-1881","full_name":"Sumser, Anton L"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-3937-1330","id":"2BD278E6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Jösch, Maximilian A","first_name":"Maximilian A","last_name":"Jösch"},{"first_name":"Peter M","last_name":"Jonas","id":"353C1B58-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0001-5001-4804","full_name":"Jonas, Peter M"},{"first_name":"Yoav","last_name":"Ben Simon","full_name":"Ben Simon, Yoav","id":"43DF3136-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"}],"article_number":"79848","title":"Fast, high-throughput production of improved rabies viral vectors for specific, efficient and versatile transsynaptic retrograde labeling"},{"author":[{"full_name":"Gruenbacher, Sophie A.","first_name":"Sophie A.","last_name":"Gruenbacher"},{"full_name":"Lechner, Mathias","id":"3DC22916-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Mathias","last_name":"Lechner"},{"first_name":"Ramin","last_name":"Hasani","full_name":"Hasani, Ramin"},{"first_name":"Daniela","last_name":"Rus","full_name":"Rus, Daniela"},{"first_name":"Thomas A","last_name":"Henzinger","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-2985-7724","full_name":"Henzinger, Thomas A"},{"last_name":"Smolka","first_name":"Scott A.","full_name":"Smolka, Scott A."},{"full_name":"Grosu, Radu","first_name":"Radu","last_name":"Grosu"}],"day":"28","arxiv":1,"title":"GoTube: Scalable statistical verification of continuous-depth models","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publisher":"Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence","department":[{"_id":"ToHe"}],"publication":"Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence","article_processing_charge":"No","scopus_import":"1","ec_funded":1,"article_type":"original","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2374-3468"],"isbn":["978577358350"],"issn":["2159-5399"]},"doi":"10.1609/aaai.v36i6.20631","quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"_id":"25F42A32-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"FWF","name":"The Wittgenstein Prize","grant_number":"Z211"},{"call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"62781420-2b32-11ec-9570-8d9b63373d4d","name":"Vigilant Algorithmic Monitoring of Software","grant_number":"101020093"}],"keyword":["General Medicine"],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"issue":"6","page":"6755-6764","abstract":[{"text":"We introduce a new statistical verification algorithm that formally quantifies the behavioral robustness of any time-continuous process formulated as a continuous-depth model.

We call our algorithm GoTube. Through its construction, GoTube ensures that the bounding tube is conservative up to a desired probability and up to a desired tightness.\r\n GoTube is implemented in JAX and optimized to scale to complex continuous-depth neural network models. Compared to advanced reachability analysis tools for time-continuous neural networks, GoTube does not accumulate overapproximation errors between time steps and avoids the infamous wrapping effect inherent in symbolic techniques. We show that GoTube substantially outperforms state-of-the-art verification tools in terms of the size of the initial ball, speed, time-horizon, task completion, and scalability on a large set of experiments.\r\n GoTube is stable and sets the state-of-the-art in terms of its ability to scale to time horizons well beyond what has been previously possible.","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2023-09-26T10:46:59Z","oa_version":"Preprint","month":"06","type":"journal_article","volume":36,"date_created":"2023-02-05T17:27:42Z","acknowledgement":"SG is funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) project number W1255-N23.

While verifying stability in deterministic control systems is extensively studied in the literature, verifying stability in stochastic control systems is an open problem. The few existing works on this topic either consider only specialized forms of stochasticity or make restrictive assumptions on the system, rendering them inapplicable to learning algorithms with neural network policies. \r\n In this work, we present an approach for general nonlinear stochastic control problems with two novel aspects: (a) instead of classical stochastic extensions of Lyapunov functions, we use ranking supermartingales (RSMs) to certify a.s. asymptotic stability, and (b) we present a method for learning neural network RSMs. \r\n We prove that our approach guarantees a.s. asymptotic stability of the system and\r\n provides the first method to obtain bounds on the stabilization time, which stochastic Lyapunov functions do not.\r\n Finally, we validate our approach

They control and direct nanocrystal syntheses and provide colloidal stability. Bound ligands also affect the nanocrystals’ chemical reactivity and electronic structure. Surface chemistry is thus crucial to understand nanocrystal properties and functionality. Here, we investigate the synthesis of metal oxide nanocrystals (CeO2-x, ZnO, and NiO) from metal nitrate precursors, in the presence of oleylamine ligands. Surprisingly, the nanocrystals are capped exclusively with a fatty acid instead of oleylamine. Analysis of the reaction mixtures with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed several reaction byproducts and intermediates that are common to the decomposition of Ce, Zn, Ni, and Zr nitrate precursors. Our evidence supports the oxidation of alkylamine and formation of a carboxylic acid, thus unraveling this counterintuitive surface chemistry."}],"date_updated":"2023-05-05T08:45:36Z","volume":1,"date_created":"2022-03-02T15:24:16Z","file_date_updated":"2022-03-02T15:33:18Z"}]
