News story segmentation is an important aspect for news video analysis. This paper presents a method for news video story segmentation. Different form prior works, which base on visual features transform, the proposed technique uses audio features as baseline and fuses visual features with it to refine the results. At first, it selects silence clips as audio features candidate points, and selects shot boundaries and anchor shots as two kinds of visual features candidate points. Then this paper selects audio feature candidates as cues and develops different fusion method, which effectively using diverse type visual candidates to refine audio candidates, to get story boundaries. Experiment results show that this method has high efficiency and adaptability to different kinds of news video.
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most malignant subtype of breast cancer, and studies have found an association between the Myb proto-oncogene like 2 (MYBL2) gene and TNBC development; however, the specific mechanisms underlying development remain unknown. Recent studies have reported the association of alternative splicing (AS) with cancer, providing new approaches to elucidate the carcinogenesis mechanism. This study aimed to identify MYBL2 AS-related genetic variants that influence the risk of developing TNBC, providing new ideas for probing the mechanism of TNBC and novel biomarkers for TNBC prevention.Methods: We conducted a case-control study of 217 patients with TNBC and 401 cancer-free controls. The CancerSplicingQTL database and HSF software were used to screen for MYBL2 AS-related genetic variants. The association of sample genotypes with the risk of TNBC development and with clinicopathological features was analysed via unconditional logistic regression. Combining multiple platforms, the candidate sites were subjected to biological function analysis.Results: Two AS-associated SNPs, rs285170 and rs405660, were identified using bioinformatics analysis. Logistic regression analysis showed that both rs285170 (OR = 0.541; 95% CI = 0.343–0.852; p = 0.008) and rs405660 (OR = 0.642; 95% CI = 0.469–0.879; p = 0.006) exhibited protective effects against TNBC under the additive model. Stratification analysis showed that these two SNPs had more significant protective effects in the Chinese population aged ≧50 years. Additionally, we found that rs405660 was associated with the risk of lymph node metastasis (OR = 0.396, 95% CI = 0.209–0.750, p = 0.005) in TNBC. Functional analysis revealed that both rs285170 and rs405660 are associated with splicing of exon 3 and that the exon 3-deleted spliceosome does not increase breast cancer risk.Conclusion: We found for the first time that MYBL2 AS-related genetic variants are associated with reduced TNBC susceptibility in the Chinese population, especially in women aged ≧50 years.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
