description: Background: An increasing number of studies demonstrate that genetic differentiation and speciation in the sea occur over much smaller spatial scales than previously appreciated given the wide distribution range of many morphologically defined coral reef invertebrate species and the presumed dispersal-enhancing qualities of ocean currents. However, knowledge about the processes that lead to population divergence and speciation is often lacking despite being essential for the understanding, conservation, and management of marine biodiversity. Sponges, a highly diverse, ecologically and economically important reef-invertebrate taxon, exhibit spatial trends in the Indo-West Pacific that are not universally reflected in other marine phyla. So far, however, processes generating those unexpected patterns are not understood.
description: Results: We unraveled the phylogeographic structure of the widespread Indo-Pacific coral reef sponge Leucetta chagosensis across its known geographic range using two nuclear markers: the rDNA internal transcribed spacers (ITS 1&2) and a fragment of the 28S gene, as well as the second intron of the ATP synthetase beta subunit-gene (ATPSb-iII). This enabled the detection of several deeply divergent clades congruent over both loci, one containing specimens from the Indian Ocean (Red Sea and Maldives), another one from the Philippines, and two other large and substructured NW Pacific and SW Pacific clades with an area of overlap in the Great Barrier Reef/Coral Sea...
description: Conclusion: We argue that both founder and vicariance events during the late Pliocene and Pleistocene were responsible to varying degrees for generating the deep phylogeographic structure. This structure was perpetuated largely as a result of the life history of L. chagosensis, resulting in high levels of regional isolation. Reciprocally monophyletic populations constitute putative sibling (cryptic) species, while population para- and polyphyly may indicate incipient speciation processes. The genetic diversity and biodiversity of tropical Indo-Pacific sponges appears to be substantially underestimated since the high level of genetic divergence is not necessarily manifested at the morphological level.

description: Image encryption has unique characteristics that differs from other data, with pixels representation having undergone many encryption techniques, such as data embedding, AES, chaotic transpositions, DES etc. Some of these techniques are not really practical for the modern security application, although other techniques proposed against reversible attack, by combining both Chaotic Steganography and Cryptography together, in order to increase encryption strength. In this proposal work, we used structural and non-linear technique, using pre-defined encoding system and FFT shifting, to produce QRs keys for both encryption and decryption processes, the initial keys are present, but not dependent as secrets keys, they are encoded dynamically each time, to generate vector of Bar Codes, then reshaped to QR codes thru generation phases. We calculated the information entropy that reached up to 7.995 for the encrypted image, and NPCR is 99.62%, as well as, the average changing intensity UACI up to 33.95% for some results on our samples. These results are compared with some previous methods and it came with good ranking.

description: We review recent results obtained in the scattering theory of dissipative quantum systems representing the long-time evolution of a system $S$ interacting with another system $S'$ and susceptible of being absorbed by $S'$. The effective dynamics of $S$ is generated by an operator of the form $H = H_0 + V - \mathrm{i} C^* C$ on the Hilbert space of the pure states of $S$, where $H_0$ is the self-adjoint generator of the free dynamics of $S$, $V$ is symmetric and $C$ is bounded. The main example is a neutron interacting with a nucleus in the nuclear optical model. We recall the basic objects of the scattering theory for the pair $(H,H_0)$, as well as the results, proven in arXiv:1703.09018 and arXiv:1808.09179, on the spectral singularities of $H$ and the asymptotic completeness of the wave operators. Next, for the nuclear optical model, we show that asymptotic completeness generically holds.

description: Helium-peculiar magnetic chemically peculiar stars show variations of helium abundance across their surfaces. As a result of associated atmospheric scale height variations, the stellar surface becomes distorted, with helium-rich regions dented inwards. Effectively, on top of flux variations due to opacity effects, the depressed helium-rich surface regions become less bright in the optical regions and brighter in the ultraviolet. We study the observational effects of the aspherical surface on the light curves of a Cen. We simulate the light curves of this star adopting surface distributions of He, N, O, Si, and Fe derived from Doppler mapping and introducing the effect of distortion proportional to helium abundance. We show that while most of the optical and UV variations of this star result from flux redistribution due to the non-uniform surface distributions of helium and iron, the reduction of light variations due to the helium-related surface distortion leads to a better agreement between simulated optical light curves and the light curves observed with the BRITE satellites.

Broad boron sheets and boron nanotubes: An ab initio study of structural, electronic, and mechanical properties
Creators: name: Kunstmann, Jens
name: Quandt, Alexander
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Based on a numerical ab initio study, we discuss a structure model for a broad boron sheet, which is the analog of a single graphite sheet, and the precursor of boron nanotubes. The sheet has linear chains of sp hybridized sigma bonds lying only along its armchair direction, a high stiffness, and anisotropic bonds properties. The puckering of the sheet is explained as a mechanism to stabilize the sp sigma bonds. The anisotropic bond properties of the boron sheet lead to a two-dimensional reference lattice structure, which is rectangular rather than triangular. As a consequence the chiral angles of related boron nanotubes range from 0 to 90 degrees. Given the electronic properties of the boron sheets, we demonstrate that all of the related boron nanotubes are metallic, irrespective of their radius and chiral angle, and we also postulate the existence of helical currents in ideal chiral nanotubes. Furthermore, we show that the strain energy of boron nanotubes will depend on their radii, as well as on their chiral angles. This is a rather unique property among nanotubular systems, and it could be the basis of a different type of structure control within nanotechnology.

description: Worker welfare and employment conditions in the agri-food producing and processing sectors in the global south have become an increasing concern for consumers. Sustainability standards, such as Fairtrade, play an important role in agri-food markets of horticultural produce and may be a tool to address these concerns. However, so far the implications of Fairtrade certification for extrinsic and intrinsic employment factors of hired labor on large-scale plantations remain hardly understood. In this paper we assess its effect on workers’ hourly wages and their level of job satisfaction with primary survey data from 325 randomly sampled workers from eight different export-oriented pineapple companies in Ghana. We apply a linear, linear mixed model and instrumental variable approach to take into account the multilevel characteristics of our data and possible selection bias. Our findings show that both hourly wages and job satisfaction are indeed higher on Fairtrade certified plantations. Factors of increased job satisfaction are likely driven by higher wages, permanent employment contracts, training opportunities, company services such as medical care and paid leave as well as established labor unions on Fairtrade certified plantations.
title: Investigating the Effects of Chronic Amphetamine Treatment on the Midbrain Superior Colliculus
Creators: name: Turner, Amy
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2018

description: Heightened distractibility, the reduced ability to filter out irrelevant information, is a disruptive symptom found in numerous conditions and healthy ageing. It is most effectively treated with psychostimulant drugs, such as amphetamine, which are given chronically in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). There is converging evidence linking the superior colliculus (SC) to the regulation of distractibility, and acute amphetamine administration is known to suppress collicular responsiveness, however relatively little is known about its mechanism of action and long lasting effects when administered chronically. It is therefore the aim of this thesis to investigate the effects of chronic treatment with amphetamine on the SC, as a neural correlate of distractibility. To achieve this, adolescent Hooded Lister rats were treated orally with amphetamine (2, 5 or 10 mg/kg) or a control (vehicle or untreated) for one month. The effects of treatment were then explored by investigating: collicular-dependant and locomotor behaviour; visual responsiveness of the superficial SC; responses to an acute amphetamine challenge; and the morphology of the superficial SC. At high doses, oral amphetamine treatment resulted in the development of locomotor tolerance, in contrast to previous research using i.p. administration which report sensitisation. Evidence of suppression of activity in the SC was identified from a reduced ability to perform collicular dependant behaviours, and from weaker light responsiveness measured from multi-unit activity in the superficial SC following treatment with high doses of amphetamine. Evidence was also found of a potential compensatory mechanism involving synaptophysin expression and enhanced peri-synaptic activity. This thesis also investigated the types of dendritic spines prevalent in the superficial SC for the first time, and found that these structures were unaffected by amphetamine treatment. These results indicate that the therapeutic effects of amphetamine may stem from suppression of collicular activity, and the SC is susceptible to amphetamine induced remodelling.

description: Noise in quantum information processing is often viewed as a disruptive and difficult-to-avoid feature, especially in near-term quantum technologies. However, noise has often played beneficial roles, from enhancing weak signals in stochastic resonance to protecting the privacy of data in differential privacy. It is then natural to ask, can we harness the power of quantum noise that is beneficial to quantum computing? An important current direction for quantum computing is its application to machine learning, such as classification problems. One outstanding problem in machine learning for classification is its sensitivity to adversarial examples. These are small, undetectable perturbations from the original data where the perturbed data is completely misclassified in otherwise extremely accurate classifiers. They can also be considered as `worst-case' perturbations by unknown noise sources. We show that by taking advantage of depolarisation noise in quantum circuits for classification, a robustness bound against adversaries can be derived where the robustness improves with increasing noise. This robustness property is intimately connected with an important security concept called differential privacy which can be extended to quantum differential privacy. For the protection of quantum data, this is the first quantum protocol that can be used against the most general adversaries. Furthermore, we show how the robustness in the classical case can be sensitive to the details of the classification model, but in the quantum case the details of classification model are absent, thus also providing a potential quantum advantage for classical data that is independent of quantum speedups. This opens the opportunity to explore other ways in which quantum noise can be used in our favour, as well as identifying other ways quantum algorithms can be helpful that is independent of quantum speedups.

description: Dass eine gute Leseflüssigkeit als Voraussetzung für alle höheren Verstehensprozesse des Lesens gilt, ist heute wissenschaftlich unbestritten. Ebenso steht ausser Frage, dass die Erarbeitung der dazu nötigen grundsätzlichen Fertigkeiten spezieller Beachtung bedarf. In der »Frankfurter Hauptschulstudie« (Nix, 2011) wurde der Frage nachgegangen, mit welchen Leseverfahren eine grösstmögliche Steigerung der Leseflüssigkeit erzielt werden könne. Dazu wurden zwei Leseverfahren betreffend ihrer Wirksamkeit miteinander verglichen. Die empirische Analyse der erhobenen Daten zeigte, dass mit der Methode des Lautlese- Tandems die nachhaltigeren Fortschritte erzielt wurden als mit den heute vorrangig praktizierten Vielleseverfahren. Auf diesen Erkenntnissen und dem Bestreben allen Schüler/-innen ein individuelles und unabhängiges Üben zu ermöglichen und damit eine gewisse Chancengerechtigkeit im Bezug auf Lesehausaufgaben zu schaffen, fusst das entwickelte computergestützte Lesetraining zur Förderung der Leseflüssigkeit, das aus Lernvideos mit simuliertem Lautlese-Tandem und den Lernprozess unterstützenden Materialien besteht.

description: We introduce a prototype agent-based model of the macroeconomy, with budgetary constraints at its core. The model is related to a class of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), which has been thoroughly investigated in computer science. The CSP paradigm allows us to propose an alternative price-setting mechanism: given agents' preferences and budgets, what set of prices satisfies the maximum number of agents? Such an approach permits the coupling of production and output within the economy to the allowed level of debt in a simplified framework. Within our model, we identify three different regimes upon varying the amount of debt that each agent can accumulate before defaulting. In presence of a very loose constraint on debt, endogenous crises leading to waves of synchronized bankruptcies are present. In the opposite regime of very tight debt constraining, the bankruptcy rate is extremely high and the economy remains structure-less. In an intermediate regime, the economy is stable with very low bankruptcy rate and no aggregate-level crises. This third regime displays a rich phenomenology:the system spontaneously and dynamically self-organizes in a set of cheap and expensive goods (i.e. some kind of "speciation"), with switches triggered by random fluctuations and feedback loops. Our analysis confirms the central role that debt levels play in the stability of the economy. More generally, our model shows that constraints at the individual scale can generate highly complex patterns at the aggregate level.

Das Torfwachstum begann in 2300 m Höhe um 6800 v. Chr. Somit konnte pollenanalytisch die Vegetationsentwicklung der ganzen postglazialen Wärmezeit erfaßt werden. Die sich im Profil abzeichnenden Klimaverschlechterungen wurden mittels 14C datiert und mit unabhängig davon datierten oder zeitlich eingegrenzten Moränen des Simony- und Maurerkees und anderer Gletscher der Venedigergruppe verglichen. Drei wärmezeitliche Gletscherhochstandsperioden erscheinen damit gut belegt. Es wurden dafür die lokalen Bezeichnungen „Venedigerschwankung" (ca. 6700— 6000 V. Chr.), „Frosnitzschwankung" (ca. 4400—4200 v. Chr.) und „Löbbenschwankung" (ca. 1500—1300 V. Chr.) eingeführt. Weitere Untersuchungen zur Sicherung dieser Ergebnisse sind in Arbeit.

description: We report the high S/N observation on October 3, 2002 with XMM-Newton of the brightest X-ray flare detected so far from SgrA* with a duration shorter than one hour (~ 2.7 ks). The light curve is almost symmetrical with respect to the peak flare, and no significant difference between the soft and hard X-ray range is detected. The overall flare spectrum is well represented by an absorbed power-law with a soft photon spectral index of Gamma=2.5+/-0.3, and a peak 2-10 keV luminosity of 3.6 (+0.3-0.4) x 10^35 erg/s, i.e. a factor 160 higher than the Sgr A* quiescent value. No significant spectral change during the flare is observed. This X-ray flare is very different from other bright flares reported so far: it is much brighter and softer. The present accurate determination of the flare characteristics challenge the current interpretation of the physical processes occuring inside the very close environment of SgrA* by bringing very strong constraints for the theoretical flare models.

description: In order to study the rotating strongly coupled Bose-Einstein condensations(BEC), a holographic model defined in an AdS black hole that duals to a coupled two-component condensations in global $U(1)$ symmetry broken phase with intercomponent coupling $η$ and internal coherent coupling $ε$ is proposed. By solving the dynamics of the model, we study the process of formation and also the crossover from fractional to integer vortex phases. With changing only $η$ from zero to a finite value, fractional vortex lattices undergo a transition from hexagon to square lattice and finally to vortex sheets. By continuing to turn on $ε$, we find that two fractional vortices in different components constitute dimers, and when $η$ transcend a critical value, multi-dimer like hexamer or tetramer made up of two and three dimers appear. As $ε$ keeps increasing, some dimers rotate to adjust themselves and then constitute the lattice of integer vortices. Under an initial conditions similar to an spinor BEC vortices dynamics experiment, the appearance of disordered turbulence is found in the process of fractional vortex generation, which matches the experimental observation. While in the formation process of integer vortices, the appearance of grooves is predicted.

Belegt der Fund einer »Schieferkohle« die spätglaziale Vergletscherung der Immenstädter Nagelfluhberge?

description: Im Rahmen einer Diplomkartierung wurde im Gebiet der Immenstädter Nagelfluhberge (Faltenmolasse) am Sedererbach, einem südlichen Nebenbach der Weißach, auf ca. 1150 m Höhe zwischen Sedererstuiben und Buralpkopf, ein bislang unbekanntes Vorkommen einer quartären „Schieferkohle" entdeckt. Es handelt sich um mehrere geringmächtige Einschaltungen aus organischem Material in sehr dicht gelagerte Schluffe und Sande, die von 2 bis max. 4 m mächtigen sterilen Kiesen überlagert werden. Innerhalb des gleichfalls sehr festen, torfartigen Materials ließen sich kaum Hölzer, dafür aber vor allem Reste von Sphagnaceen (Torfmoosen) und Diatomeen nachweisen. Aufgrund der Morphologie und der Geländebefunde ist es unwahrscheinlich, dass die augenscheinliche Überkonsolidierung des Materials auf eine ehemals mächtigere Überdeckung durch inzwischen abgetragene Sedimente oder Rutschmassen zurückzuführen ist. Angesichts der Position der Fundstelle direkt unterhalb eines großen Kares auf der Nordseite der über 1800 m hohen Rindalphorn-Hochgrat-Kette ist sie wohl eher mit einer Überfahrung durch einen Lokalgletscher erklärbar. Im Rahmen eines Kompressionsversuches mit behinderter Seitenausdehnung, der an diesem Material durchgeführt wurde, ließ sich durch Bestimmung des Casagrande-Knickes eine mögliche, ehemalige Eisüberlagerung von gut 20 m abschätzen. Drei 14C -Datierungen ergaben mit 11930 ± 80, 11950 ± 60 und 11620 ± 80 Jahren BP überraschend junge Sedimentationsalter der Proben, die damit offenbar aus dem älteren Teil des Alleröd-Interstadials stammen. Als Zeitpunkt für eine mögliche Eisüberfahrung bleibt demnach nur die Jüngere Dryaszeit übrig (Egesen-Stadium), für die an dieser Stelle eine überraschend kräftige Depression der „Schneegrenze" von mindestens 450 m gegenüber einer heutigen hypothetischen „Schneegrenze" angenommen werden muss. Es ist wohl davon auszugehen, dass die großen Kare im Gebiet der Immenstädter Nagelfluhkette das letzte Mal kurz vor Beginn des Holozäns vergletschert waren.

GRAPE-SPH Chemodynamical Simulation of Elliptical Galaxies I: Evolution of Metallicity Gradients
Creators: name: Kobayashi, Chiaki
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We simulate the formation and chemodynamical evolution of 124 elliptical galaxies by using a GRAPE-SPH code that includes various physical processes associated with the formation of stellar systems: radiative cooling, star formation, feedback from Type II and Ia supernovae and stellar winds, and chemical enrichment. In our CDM-based scenario, galaxies form through the successive merging of sub-galaxies with various masses. Their merging histories vary between a major merger at one extreme, and a monolithic collapse of a slow-rotating gas cloud at the other extreme. The basic processes driving the evolution of the metallicity gradients are as follows: i) destruction by mergers to an extent dependent on the progenitor mass ratio. ii) regeneration when strong central star formation is induced at a rate dependent on the gas mass of the secondary. iii) slow evolution as star formation is induced in the outer regions through late gas accretion. We succeed in reproducing the observed variety of the radial metallicity gradients. The average gradient dlog Z/dlog r ~ -0.3 with dispersion of +- 0.2 and no correlation between gradient and galaxy mass are consistent with observations of Mg2 gradients. The variety of the gradients stems from the difference in the merging histories. Galaxies that form monolithically have steeper gradients, while galaxies that undergo major mergers have shallower gradients. Thus merging histories can, in principle, be inferred from the observed metallicity gradients of present-day galaxies. The observed variation in the metallicity gradients cannot be explained by either monolithic collapse or by major merger alone. Rather it requires a model in which both formation processes arise, such as the present CDM scheme.

description: We look at the trade-off between smallholder cocoa intensification and the ecosystem in Indonesia and investigate the determinants of environmental efficiency in cocoa production. In our analysis, we apply a distance output function that includes cocoa production and the abundance of native rainforest plants as outputs. Our data set, based on a household and environment survey conducted in 2015, allows us to analyze 208 cocoa producers with both measured and self-reported data. We find that the intensification of cocoa farms results in higher ecosystem degradation. Additionally, the estimations show substantial mean inefficiencies (50 percent). On average, the efficiency scores point to a possible production expansion of 367 kg of cocoa per farm and year, to a possible increase of 43680 rainforest plants per farm, or to a possible acreage reduction of 0.52 hectares per farm. Finally, our results show that agricultural extension services have a substantial role in increasing efficiency.

description: We study the effects of finite temperature on normal state properties of a metal near a quantum critical point to an antiferromagnetic or Ising-nematic state. At $T = 0$ bosonic and fermionic self-energies are traditionally computed within Eliashberg theory and obey scaling relations with characteristic power-laws. Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations have shown strong systematic deviations from these predictions, casting doubt on the validity of the theoretical analysis. We extend Eliashberg theory to finite $T$ and argue that for the $T$ range accessible in the QMC simulations, the scaling forms for both fermionic and bosonic self energies are quite different from those at $T = 0$. We compare finite $T$ results with QMC data and find good agreement for both systems. This, we argue, resolves the key apparent contradiction between the theory and the QMC simulations.

Gehen wir auf eine neue Eiszeit zu?

description: In der öffentlichen Diskussion der Gegenwart tauchen in fast regelmäßigem Abstand Meldungen, auch solche von manipulativem Charakter aus der Ecke der Regenbogenpresse auf, in welchen der Menschheit das baldige Erscheinen einer neuen Eiszeit in Aussicht gestellt wird. Man muß feststellen, daß der wissenschaftliche Gehalt derartiger Informationen äußerst dürftig ist und daß zur Beweisführung für diese Behauptung meist Prognosen herangezogen werden, die nur zum Teil auf einer diskussionswürdigen Basis stehen. Bekanntermaßen sind klimatologische Prognosen, die sich auf Beobachtungen über die geologische Gegenwart beziehen, wegen der Kürze der wissenschaftlich exakten Beobachtungsdauer bedenklich. Jedenfalls sind die Folgerungen meist schwerergewichtig als das Beobachtungsmaterial. Für einen Quartärstratigraphen ist betrüblich festzustellen, daß sich — von wenigen Ausnahmen, z. B. dem INQUA Symposium in Uppsala im Jahre 1975 abgesehen — die Quartärforscher in dieser Frage nicht oder nur sehr undeutlich artikuliert haben. Dabei besitzen sie aufgrund ihrer Kenntnisse über Vegetations- und Klimageschichte sowie über die Chronologie der Interglazialzeiten das bestmögliche Beobachtungsmaterial. Man kann diese Kenntnis auf zyklo-stratigraphische Gesetzmäßigkeiten zurückführen, die für die Klimageschichte des Holozän wichtig sind und es erlauben, eine Vorausschau über die zukünftige Klimaentwicklung vorzunehmen. Der Autor regt an, diese Daten zu sichten und ihre Bedeutung für die Klimaentwicklung herauszustellen. Die Quartärforscher sollten sich deutlicher als bisher zu dieser für die gesamte Menschheit wichtigen Frage äußern.

description: Dynamic networks are used in a wide range of fields, including social network analysis, recommender systems, and epidemiology. Representing complex networks as structures changing over time allow network models to leverage not only structural but also temporal patterns. However, as dynamic network literature stems from diverse fields and makes use of inconsistent terminology, it is challenging to navigate. Meanwhile, graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained a lot of attention in recent years for their ability to perform well on a range of network science tasks, such as link prediction and node classification. Despite the popularity of graph neural networks and the proven benefits of dynamic network models, there has been little focus on graph neural networks for dynamic networks. To address the challenges resulting from the fact that this research crosses diverse fields as well as to survey dynamic graph neural networks, this work is split into two main parts. First, to address the ambiguity of the dynamic network terminology we establish a foundation of dynamic networks with consistent, detailed terminology and notation. Second, we present a comprehensive survey of dynamic graph neural network models using the proposed terminology

description: The high volatility of the world cocoa price makes the millions of cocoa farmers in the developing world highly vulnerable to poverty. A large volatility in the value of an agricultural commodity is linked to the inelasticity of its supply or demand. Therefore, we test the hypothesis that the price elasticities of the global cocoa supply and demand are low. We describe the global cocoa market with cointegration dynamic supply, demand and price submodels. Our OLS, 2SLS, and SUR estimates are based on annual global observations covering the years 1963 through 2013. We find that the global cocoa supply is extremely price-inelastic: the corresponding short- and long-run estimates are 0.07 and 0.57. The price elasticity of cocoa demand also falls into the extremely inelastic range: the short- and long-run estimates are −0.06 and −0.34. Based on these empirical results, we consider the prospects for cocoa price stabilization. The cocoa price volatility was treated with various unsuccessful methods in the past. A possible solution for reducing the price volatility would be the encouragement of crop diversification. This increases the price elasticity of cocoa supply by adjusting the effort and money allocation between the crops, thus decreasing price volatility.
title: Dissecting Melanoma Heterogeneity by Integrative Genomic Analysis for Tailored Anti-Cancer Therapy

description: Cutaneous melanoma is a highly aggressive disease resistant to conventional treatment and characterized by poor prognosis. Targeted therapies against MAPK pathway and immune checkpoint inhibitors have dramatically improved survival of metastatic melanoma patients but the extent and duration of response are variable. Classification based on gene expression profiling have so far allowed identification of melanoma subtypes with distinctive biological features and with potential clinical impact. However, clinical translation of molecular subtypes is hampered by inconsistencies among the different classifications. Here, through a harmonized bioinformatic analysis of public transcriptomic datasets, we compared and combined nine published classification systems to derive the consensus transcriptional subtypes of melanoma. Beyond confirming previously reported subtypes, our approach enabled the identification of a novel highly mitotic, chromosomally unstable group of melanomas that recapitulated a transitory state from a proliferative, melanocytic, differentiated phenotype to a more mesenchimal invasive program. We provided evidence that this classification has a prognostic role in metastatic melanoma patients, independently from the levels of tumour immune infiltration. We translated consensus subtypes to in vitro melanoma cell lines and combining them with pharmacological data we highlighted subtype-specific sensitivity to MAPK inhibitors and other drugs. Analysis of baseline gene expression data of metastatic melanoma patients treated with MAPK or immune checkpoint inhibitors showed that the predictive role of consensus subtypes in clinical setting remains to be elucidated. Finally, through the analysis of multi-omics data from the same set of patients, we comprehensively characterized the consensus subtypes at the genomic, transcriptional, and epigenomic levels. Our results showed that melanoma gene expression classifications converged on five biological entities determined by transcriptional and epigenetic events, and with potential implications for prognostication.
