According to news originatingfrom Maringa, Brazil, by NewsRx co rrespondents, research stated, "Software Product Line (SPL) is anapproach deriv ed from other engineering fields that use reuse techniques for a family of produ cts in a givendomain. An essential artifact of SPL is the Product Line Architec ture (PLA), which identifies elementscharacterized by variation points, variabi lity, and variants."Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from State University Ma ringa, "The PLA aimsto anticipate design decisions to obtain features such as r eusability and modularity. Nevertheless, gettinga reusable and modular PLA and following pre-defined standards can be a complex task involving severalconflict ing objectives. In this sense, PLA can be formulated as a multiobjective optimiz ation problem.This research presents an approach that helps DMs (Decision Maker s) to interactively optimize the PLAsthrough several strategies such as interac tive optimization and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. Theinteractive multiobj ective optimization approach for PLA design (iMOA4PLA) uses specific metrics forthe PLA optimization problem, implemented through the OPLA-Tool v2.0. In this a pproach, the architectassumes the role of DM during the search process, guiding the evolution of PLAs through various strategiesproposed in previous works. Tw o quantitative and one qualitative experiments were performed to evaluatethe iM OA4PLA. The results showed that this approach can assist the PLA optimization pr ocess bymeeting more than 90% of DM preferences."

However, there is currently no widely accepted method for e arly screening of BCa."Financial supporters for this research include Natural Science Foundation of Gua ngdong Province,National Natural Science Foundation of China.Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Sun Yat-sen University, "We aimed todevelop an efficient, clinically applicable, and noninvasive metho d for the early screening of BCa bydetecting specific serum miRNA levels. A mix ed-cohort (including BCa, 12 different other cancers, benigndisease patients, a nd health population) study was conducted using a sample size of 16,189. Five ma chinelearning algorithms were utilized to develop screening models for BCa usin g the training dataset. Theperformance of the model was evaluated using receive r operating characteristic curve and decision curveanalysis on the testing data set, and subsequently, the model with the best predictive power was selected.Fu rthermore, the selected model's screening performance was evaluated using both t he validation set andexternal set. The BCaS3miR model, utilizing only three ser um miRNAs (miR-6087, miR-1343-3p, andmiR-5100) and based on the KNN algorithm, is the superior screening model chosen for BCa. BCaS3miRconsistently performed well in both the testing, validation, and external sets, exceeding 90% sensitivityand specificity levels. The area under the curve was 0.990 (95% CI: 0.984-0.991), 0.964 (95% CI: 0.936-0.984), and 0.917 (95% CI: 0.836-0.953) in the testing, validation, and external set. The subgroup analysis revealed that the BCaS3miR model demonstrated outstanding screening accurac y in various clinicalsubgroups of BCa. In addition, we developed a BCa screenin g scoring model (BCaSS) based on thelevels of miR-1343-3p/miR-6087 and miR-5100 /miR-6087. The screening effect of BCaSS is investigatedand the findings indica te that it has predictability and distinct advantages. Using a mixed cohort withthe largest known sample size to date, we have developed effective screening mo dels for BCa, namelyBCaS3miR and BCaSS."
