Near-field acoustic holography (NAH) based on compressing sensing (CS) theory enables accurate reconstruction of sound fields using a limited number of sampling points. However, the successful implementation of this technique depends on two crucial factors: (1) the appropriate selection or construction of the spatial basis and (2) an effective sparse regularization process. To enhance reconstruction performance for elongated sound sources, this paper proposes a novel sound field reconstruction method that combines prolate spheroidal wave functions (PSWFs) with the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. In this method, PSWFs serve as a sparse spatial basis for representing the radiated sound field. The sparse coefficients are determined by the OMP algorithm in a linear subspace composed of basic functions that best match the residual error. The OMP algorithm effectively identifies significant components before potentially selecting incorrect ones by setting an appropriate stopping rule. Numerical simulations are conducted using a line-array source model. The results show that the proposed method can accurately reconstruct the sound pressures of the elongated source model using a relatively small number of samplings. In addition, the proposed method exhibits robustness across a wide frequency range, diverse array configurations and various sampling numbers. The experimental results further validate the feasibility and reliability of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Fungicides are frequently detected in the water bodies, however, the adverse effects of these fungicides on aquatic lives remain limited. To better understand the adverse effects of amisulbrom (AML) and isoflucypram (ISO) on embryogenesis, zebrafish embryos were exposed to two different fungicides, 0.75 μM amisulbrom (AML) and 2.5 μM isoflucypram (ISO), for 72 h. Transcriptome sequencing was employed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) after AML and ISO exposure. A total of 571 and 3471 DEGs were detected between the libraries of the two fungicides-treated groups and the control, respectively. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis showed that PPAR signaling pathway, phototransduction, ribosome and p53 signaling pathway were significantly enriched in response to both AML and ISO stress. Moreover, a number of DEGs involved in tyrosine metabolism, phagosome pathway, cell cycle pathway, extracellular matrix (ECM) receptor interaction pathway, and arginine and proline metabolism were specially enriched after exposure to AML; a number of DEGs involved in notch signaling pathway, drug metabolism, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, amino-acyl−tRNA biosynthesis, and protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum were significantly enriched after exposure to ISO. These results provide novel insights into the toxicological mechanisms underlying fish's responses to fungicides. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
