RESUMEN
Recent high-throughput omics techniques have produced a large amount of biological data. Visualization of big omics data is essential to answer a wide range of biological problems. As a concise but comprehensive strategy, a heatmap can analyze and visualize high-dimensional and heterogeneous biomolecular expression data in an attractive artwork. In 2014, we developed a stand-alone software package, Heat map Illustrator (HemI 1.0), which implemented three clustering methods and seven distance metrics for heatmap illustration. Here, we significantly improved 1.0 and released the online service of HemI 2.0, in which 7 clustering methods and 22 types of distance metrics were implemented. In HemI 2.0, the clustering results and publication-quality heatmaps can be exported directly. For an in-depth analysis of the data, we further added an option of enrichment analysis for 12 model organisms, with 15 types of functional annotations. The enrichment results can be visualized in five idioms, including bubble chart, bar graph, coxcomb chart, pie chart and word cloud. We anticipate that HemI 2.0 can be a helpful web server for visualization of biomolecular expression data, as well as the additional enrichment analysis. HemI 2.0 is freely available for all users at: https://hemi.biocuckoo.org/.

The road friction coefficient is a key parameter for autonomous vehicles and vehicle dynamic control. With the development of autonomous vehicles, increasingly, more environmental perception sensors are being installed on vehicles, which means that more information can be used to estimate the road friction coefficient. In this paper, a nonlinear observer aided by vehicle lateral displacement information for estimating the road friction coefficient is proposed. First, the tire brush model is modified to describe the tire characteristics more precisely in high friction conditions using tire test data. Then, on the basis of vehicle dynamics and a kinematic model, a nonlinear observer is designed, and the self-aligning torque of the wheel, lateral acceleration, and vehicle lateral displacement are used to estimate the road friction coefficient during steering. Finally, slalom tests and DLC (Double Line Change) tests in high friction conditions are conducted to verify the proposed estimation algorithm. Test results showed that the proposed method performs well during steering and the estimated road friction coefficient converges to the reference value rapidly.
RESUMEN
The slip angle and attitude are vital for automated driving. In this paper, a systematic inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based vehicle slip angle and attitude estimation method aided by vehicle dynamics is proposed. This method can estimate the slip angle and attitude simultaneously and autonomously. With accurate attitude, the slip angle can be estimated precisely even though the vehicle dynamic model (VDM)-based velocity estimator diverges for a short time. First, the longitudinal velocity, pitch angle, lateral velocity, and roll angle were estimated by two estimators based on VDM considering the lever arm between the IMU and rotation center. When this information was in high fidelity, it was applied to aid the IMU-based slip angle and attitude estimators to eliminate the accumulated error correctly. Since there is a time delay in detecting the abnormal estimation results from VDM-based estimators during critical steering, a novel delay estimation and prediction structure was proposed to avoid the outlier feedback from vehicle dynamics estimators for the IMU-based slip angle and attitude estimators. Finally, the proposed estimation method was validated under large lateral excitation experimental tests including double lane change (DLC) and slalom maneuvers.
