    Abstract: Presented are methods of assessing a deficit in DNA damage repair capability in cancer cells. Cancer cells having this DNA damage repair phenotype have increased susceptibility to certain treatments, including genotoxic treatments, treatment with PARP1 inhibitors, and immunotherapies. The methods encompass the use of novel gene expression signatures that enable facile and rapid determination of the DNA damage repair phenotype in cancer cells of a sample. By these methods, subjects having cancer that is amenable to genotoxic treatment, PARP1 inhibition, or immunotherapy may be identified and administered a suitable treatment. Also disclosed is a method of inducing the DNA damage repair deficit phenotype in cancer cells to sensitize them to various treatments.

    Abstract: A point cloud decoding method, a point cloud encoding method, and a decoder are provided in implementation of the disclosure. The decoding method includes the following. A bitstream of a point cloud is parsed to obtain an initial reconstructed value of attribute information of a target point in the point cloud.

A final chroma value is obtained by filtering the initial chroma value with a Kalman filtering algorithm. A final reconstructed value of the attribute information of the target point is obtained based on the final chroma value and the initial luma value. A decoded point cloud is obtained according to the final reconstructed value of the attribute information of the target point.
