Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing unified propensity modeling across product versions. During operation, the system determines features and labels related to converting to multiple versions of a product by a first set of members, wherein the features and the labels span a unified timeframe and adhere to a unified data logic. Next, the system inputs the features and the labels as training data for one or more machine learning models. The system then applies the machine learning model(s) to additional features for a second set of members to produce scores representing likelihoods of the second set of members converting to the multiple versions of the product. Finally, the system generates, based on the scores, output for targeting the second set of members with the product.

Abstract: The TaNAC2 gene can promote uptake and utilization of nitrogen in a plant. A method for improving the uptake, transport and/or assimilation of nitrogen element in the plant includes: introducing a gene encoding a protein represented by SEQ ID NO:4 into a primary plant to obtain a transgenic plant. Compared to the primary plant, the uptake, transport and/or assimilation of the nitrogen element in the transgenic plant are improved. The method provides advantages in that: the TaNAC2 gene, as a nitrate nitrogen responsive regulatory factor, which can regulate the expression of a series of genes in nitrogen element uptake pathways of wheat, greatly promotes the study of the metabolism and utilization of the nitrogen element in a plant; and it is possible to improve the assimilation efficiency of nitrogen element by increasing the expression of TaNAC2, thereby reducing fertilizer application and increasing yield.
