Cancer is a hyper-proliferative disorder, which involves transformation, deregulation of apoptosis, proliferation, invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Worldwide, more than half a million people died of cancer every year, at a rate of 1500 patients every day [1]. Breast cancer is the second leading cancer in women, accounting for 25 % of all cases [2]. Currently tamoxifen, selective oestrogen receptor modulator, is widely used in the prevention and treatment of oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer [3]. However, a significant number of patients develop tamoxifen resistance and experience severe side effects [4,5]. It is therefore, imperative to search for newer compounds, which are effective, greener and not with many side effects. As the conventional cancer therapies failed to fulfil the criteria for successful cancer treatments, recent research revolved around the urgency to develop suitable therapy for the cure of cancer with no toxic effects through methodical and scientific exploration of the enormous pool of synthetic, biological, and natural products [2,6-9]. Plant-derived natural products received significant attention due to their diverse pharmacological properties and cancer preventive effects. With the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids and terpenes, these offer different forms of cytotoxic effects such as cell proliferation inhibition, apoptosis induction or modulating signal transduction, without exhibiting considerable damage to normal cells [7-13]. These are relatively new, but very promising strategies in preventing cancer due to both additive and synergistic effects [8]. Interest in the pharmacological effects of bioactive compounds on cancer treatments and prevention has increased dramatically over the past 20 y. Many fruits such as guava [13] , banana [11] , papaya [12] , lemon [14] , orange [15] , apple, water melon, litchi are reported to possess proven medicinal activities when

“…The tomatoes water requirement in greenhouse is affected by the meteorological factors and its own growth and development status. Kumar et al [9] found that water stress significantly affected tomato dry matter accumulation and total soluble solids content. Water stress occurred throughout the growing season, and both dry matter content and sugar concentration are significantly increased during fruit ripening.…”

“…Based on previous researches [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16], this paper combined fuzzy theory with neural network to make decisions for water-saving irrigation with T-S fuzzy neural network based on genetic optimization for greenhouse tomatoes. This method overcomes the problem of low accuracy in fuzzy system, and it has better effect than the system which only uses the artificial neural network (ANN).…”

In order to improve the utilization of irrigation water resources of greenhouse tomatoes, a water-saving irrigation decision-making model based on genetic optimization T-S fuzzy neural network is proposed in this paper. The main work are as follows: Firstly, the traditional genetic algorithm is optimized by introducing the constraint operator and update operator of the Krill herd (KH) algorithm. Secondly, the weights and thresholds of T-S fuzzy neural network are optimized by using the improved genetic algorithm. Finally, on the basis of the real data set, the genetic optimization T-S fuzzy neural network is used to simulate and predict the irrigation volume for greenhouse tomatoes. The performance of the genetic algorithm improved T-S fuzzy neural network (GA-TSFNN), the traditional T-S fuzzy neural network algorithm (TSFNN), BP neural network algorithm(BPNN) and the genetic algorithm improved BP neural network algorithm (GA-BPNN) is compared by simulation. The simulation experiment results show that compared with the TSFNN, BPNN and the GA-BPNN, the error of the GA-TSFNN between the predicted value and the actual value of This work is supported by Beijing Natural Science Foundation (4172024).
