Jiang et al. identify a selective and direct small-molecule inhibitor for NLRP3 and provide solid evidence showing that NLRP3 can be targeted in vivo to combat inflammasome-driven diseases.

Recent studies often exploit Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) to model label dependencies to improve recognition accuracy for multi-label image recognition. However, constructing a graph by counting the label co-occurrence possibilities of the training data may degrade model generalizability, especially when there exist occasional cooccurrence objects in test images. Our goal is to eliminate such bias and enhance the robustness of the learnt features. To this end, we propose an Attention-Driven Dynamic Graph Convolutional Network (ADD-GCN) to dynamically generate a specific graph for each image. ADD-GCN adopts a Dynamic Graph Convolutional Network (D-GCN) to model the relation of content-aware category representations that are generated by a Semantic Attention Module (SAM). Extensive experiments on public multi-label benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, which achieves mAPs of 85.2%, 96.0%, and 95.5% on MS-COCO, VOC2007, and VOC2012, respectively, and outperforms current state-of-the-art methods with a clear margin.

Alloy‐type anodes are one of the most promising classes of next‐generation anode materials due to their ultrahigh theoretical capacity (2–10 times that of graphite). However, current alloy‐type anodes have several limitations: huge volume expansion, high tendency to fracture and disintegrate, an unstable solid–electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer, and low Coulombic efficiency. Efforts to overcome these challenges are ongoing. This Review details recent progress in the research of batteries based on alloy‐type anodes and discusses the direction of their future development. We conclude that improvements in structural design, the introduction of a protective interface, and the selection of suitable electrolytes are the most effective ways to improve the performance of alloy‐type anodes. Furthermore, future studies should direct more attention toward analyzing their synergistic promoting effect.
