8-Jan-2026 A method for extracting heartbeat cycle and numerical signals from ECG captured images Higher Education Press ECG-I2S, an open-source Python toolkit, turns smartphone photos of printed ECGs into beat-aligned digital signals and real-time cardiac diagnoses via a one-line pip install. Journal Frontiers of Computer Science
8-Jan-2026 D-A COFs/ZnIn2S4 for high-efficiency H2O2 photosynthesis Higher Education Press We report a dual IEF-driven S-scheme heterojunction based on TpAQ and ZIS for photocatalytic H2O2 production. Without using any sacrificial agents or cocatalysts, TpAQ/ZIS-10 exhibits superior visible-light driven H2O2 production rate compared to unitary TpAQ and ZIS, illustrating the facilitated photogenerated charge separation and transfer by dual IEF-driven S-scheme heterojunctions. More importantly, the dual-pathway in TpAQ/ZIS-10 involving 2e⁻-ORR and 4e⁻-WOR synergistically promote photocatalytic H2O2 production during the reaction process. Journal Acta Physico-Chimica Sinica
8-Jan-2026 How plastic film mulching and microplastics affect soil nitrogen cycling？ Higher Education Press As a crucial agricultural yield-increasing technique in arid and semi-arid regions, plastic film mulching (PFM) has significantly enhanced crop yield and quality by increasing soil temperature, reducing water evaporation, and optimizing nutrient cycling. However, with the increasingly prominent issue of farmland microplastic pollution caused by residual plastic films, this "white revolution" is now facing severe challenges to sustainable development. Journal Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering
8-Jan-2026 A survey of dynamic graph neural networks Higher Education Press Scholars deliver the first systematic survey of Dynamic GNNs, unifying continuous- and discrete-time models, benchmarking their strengths, and mapping scalable, large-graph frontiers. Journal Frontiers of Computer Science
8-Jan-2026 A multi-view heterogeneous and extractive graph attention network for evidential document-level event factuality identification Higher Education Press Researchers present HEGAT, the first interpretable, fine-grained model that jointly predicts document-level event factuality and extracts evidential sentences, achieving SOTA on their refined EB-DEF-v2 corpus.
