Abstract: The present invention relates to a collision-free path generating method for a robot and an end effector quipped thereon to move. The method includes steps of configuring a virtual working environment, containing a plurality of virtual objects at least including the robot, the end effector and a target object consisting of a plurality of basic members and mapped from a working environment in a reality, in a robot simulator; selecting a level of detail and a pre-determined shape for a collider covering the plurality of virtual objects to determine boundaries for the plurality of objects; randomly sampling a combination of robot configurations; and based on the determine boundaries and the randomly sampled combination of robot configurations, performing a heuristic based pathfinding algorithm to compute a collision-free path for the robot and the end effector quipped thereon to move to the target object accordingly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a near-site robotic construction system. The system includes a work station situated on a near-site position in a close proximity to a building foundation on which a building is under construction and providing shelter and workspace for at least one robot to work; and a computer-assisted cloud based near-site robotic construction platform installed on a cloud server system and configured to provide for a user to operate through a web browser, import and extract a building information modelling data, and plan a predetermined motion command set partly based on the extracted building information modelling data, wherein the at least one robot is configured to work in accordance with the predetermined motion command set to prefabricate a plurality of components for the building in the work station on the near-site position.

Abstract: An early detection and prediction method of pan-cancer is provided, including the following steps. A microRNA expression profile database of cancer patient populations and healthy populations is established, and an early detection and prediction method of pan-cancer is developed based on the microRNA expression profile database. Next, a microRNA expression profile of a liquid biopsy sample of a subject is analyzed via the early detection and prediction method of pan-cancer, so as to determine whether the subject may already have cancer.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a health risk assessment method including the following steps. A miRNA expression database of a healthy population is established. A miRNA expression in a plasma specimen of a subject is analyzed. After that, miRNA expression data of the subject is compared with the miRNA expression in the miRNA expression database of the healthy population, and the miRNA expression being too high or too low in the plasma specimen of the subject is found out to assess health risk of the subject.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods for determining an endometrial status using a sample, for example, an endometrial biopsy, from a woman, comprising: (a) performing an assay on the endometrial sample from the woman to determine a microRNA (miRNA) expression profile of the endometrial sample, wherein the miRNA expression profile comprises expression levels of a plurality of miRNAs, for example, 167 miRNAs having the sequences of SEQ ID NOs:1-167, respectively; and (b) analyzing the miRNA expression profile to obtain a receptivity predictive score using, for example, a computer-based algorithm. Aspects of the disclosure further relate to kits suitable for performing the methods, as well as uses of the kits for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Abstract: The present invention provides an expression vector comprising an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element, comprising a sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the sequence is an IRES element from a gene icp35 of White spot syndrome virus. The expression vector can be easily operated in insect cells or Crustacean cells and has excellent expression efficiency due to having such an IRES element. A multiple expression gene system is also provided herein, which comprises the expression vector. The system comprising the IRES element can be functioned via transfection, such that the experimental process can be considerably shortened, and thus studying costs will be reduced effectively.
