Abstract: Currently, scientific big data management is generally faced with the problems of scattered data resources, inconsistent data standards, and the inability to share and circulate data safely. Research personnel attaches great importance to whether sharing the first-hand property is secure under clear ownership and whether it can contribute to the large society. The isolation of the data management system is the obvious obstacle to collecting and managing across-disciplinary data. To a large extent, sharing and trading scientific big data is the primary purpose to realize the clarity of property rights, secure data sharing, and the value of the data assets …step by step. We propose to construct a public platform for scientific big data management. The system is managed to unify and authorize the on-chain data, on which data sharing and trading is tracked throughout the process. Smart contracts are executed with vital functions and guarantee price matching in data transactions. We design the incentive mechanism which measures the incentive yield of data cost quality based on Evolutionary Game Theory and Data Quality Control Theory (EGQCY), considering how the cost of data quality performs in controlling and impacting the rational release of the incentive yields in the sharing and trading process. The experiments found that the design of incentive yield and incentive coefficients only significantly affected the transition from low-quality data to medium-quality data. Both parameters converged to fixed values as the cost of data quality increased. Show more

Abstract: The relationship between transportation infrastructure and entrepreneurship has been widely discussed by scholars. However, as an important transportation infrastructure, the impact of subway construction on entrepreneurship has been less studied. Based on the Synthetic Control Method, this paper takes the urban data of China from 2003 to 2017 as the research sample and uses the synthetic control method to study the influence of eight cities with subway service on entrepreneurship. The results show that: (1) The impact of subway openings on entrepreneurship varies across different cities. Specifically, it has a positive effect on entrepreneurship in Hangzhou, Zhengzhou, and Changsha, while …it has a negative impact on entrepreneurship in Harbin and Ningbo. In the cases of Suzhou, Wuxi, and Kunming, the influence on entrepreneurship levels could not be conclusively established. (2) For cities where entrepreneurship activity increased following the opening of subways, further investigation revealed that subway openings did not directly stimulate entrepreneurship within transport-related industries. Instead, they indirectly boosted the entrepreneurial landscape in Hangzhou, Zhengzhou, and Changsha by accelerating the flow of resources and enhancing spillover effects within their respective advantageous industries. This study’s contributions are twofold. Firstly, it introduces innovative perspectives and methodologies for assessing the impact of subway systems on entrepreneurship, highlighting the differentiated effects observed across various cities and industries. Secondly, it emphasizes the importance of considering local advantageous industries in subway construction planning for government authorities, as this can maximize the subway’s potential to drive entrepreneurship in urban areas.

Abstract: Emergency rescue decisions in case of a typhoon disaster can be considered multi-attribute decision-making problems. Considering the need for the timeliness and authenticity of decision-making information sources after such a disaster, this study proposed using learning methods to process real-time online data and interval-valued neutrosophic numbers (NNs) to express the classification results. Using Typhoon Hagupit as an example, a trained text classification model was used to classify real-time data (online comments), following which the classification results were used as weights to convert these data into interval-valued NNs. Finally, the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) …method was adopted to rank the extent of damage caused by the typhoon in each region; the sorting results were consistent with the official statistical data, proving the effectiveness of the proposed method. A detailed sensitivity analysis was conducted to determine the optimal parameter settings of the classification model. Furthermore, the proposed method was compared with existing methods in terms of data conversion and deep learning efficiency; the results confirmed the superior capabilities of the proposed method. Notably, the proposed method can provide support to disaster management professionals in their post-disaster emergency relief work. Show more

Abstract: Photorealistic image style transfer aims to transfer style information while preserving the realistic details of the content image. However, an existing limitation is the inability to effectively balance the relationship between image realism and stylization intensity, resulting in poor image transfer performance. To address this issue, we propose an photorealistic style transfer method that fusing Frequency Separation Channel Attention Mechanism (FSCAM) and Mirror Fluid Pyramid Integration (MFPI). This method achieves superior stylization intensity while improves image realism. Firstly, we propose an improved channel attention mechanism called FSCAM. This mechanism utilizes Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to decompose features into different frequency …components and screens out high-valued texture and color features, thereby enhancing the stylization intensity of the generated images. In addition, we designed a MFPI module. The module is able to integrate information from different scales, enhance the preservation of low-level detail features in high-level features, and thus improve the realism of the images. Experimental results demonstrate that our method not only enhances the stylization intensity but also improves the image realism. It achieves satisfactory performance in terms of subjective visual performance and objective evaluation metrics. Show more

Abstract: Effective energy futures price prediction is an important work in the energy market. However, the existing research on the application of “decomposition-prediction” framework still has shortcomings in noise processing and signal reconstruction. In view of this, this paper first uses PSO to optimize VMD to improve the effectiveness of single decomposition, and further uses SGMD to capture the remaining key information after extracting low-frequency modal components by using PSO-VMD technology. Further, combined with LSTM to predict each component, a new PSO-VMD-SGMD-LSTM hybrid model is innovatively constructed. The empirical research results based on the real energy market transaction price show that …compared with the benchmark model, the hybrid model proposed in this paper has obvious forecasting advantages in different forecasting scenarios.

Abstract: Let G be a graph and R = {r 1 , r 2 , …, r k } be an ordered subset of vertices of G , if every two vertices of G have different representation r (v |R ) = (d (v , r 1 ) , d (v , r 2 ) , …, d (v , r k )) with respect to R , then R is said to be a metric-based resolving parameter or resolving set of G and its minimum cardinality is called the metric dimension of graph G . Metric dimension …is considered as an important applied concept of graph theory especially in the localization of a network and also in the chemical graph theoretical study of molecular compounds. Therefore, it is hot topic to study for different families of graphs as well. Convex polytopes play an important role both in various branches of mathematics and in applied areas, most notably in linear programming. In this paper, we determine the metric-based resolving parameter of line graph of a convex polytope S n , and conclude that it has constant metric dimension but vary with the parity of n . This article presents a measurement of the line graph of a convex polytope, denoted as ( S n ) . The subsequent section provides the metric dimension of the resulting graph. There are two scenarios pertaining to the metric dimension of a selected graph with respect to the metric dimension. The metric dimension of even cycle-based convex polytopes is three, whereas for other values, the metric dimension is four. Show more

Abstract: In this paper, we present a novel DILTS algorithm that uses a new approach inspired by the energy efficiency of dragonflies. The algorithm optimizes the energy-harvesting mechanisms in IoT devices, inspired by the way dragonflies use wind energy to fly. A sophisticated algorithm optimizes power consumption during task execution, saving energy and speeding up tasks while maintaining the application throughput. The algorithm leverages lazy task scheduling (LTS) to enhance task execution performance. The proposed algorithm evaluates the energy levels of each task and implements an LTS method. This LTS approach improves performance and task management by streamlining scheduling data and …reducing overhead. The LTS model reliably optimizes the energy across microbenchmarks and real-time IoT devices. To assess the efficiency and practicality of our algorithm, we compared it to four alternatives. Our novel algorithm outperformed the others with a chip area of 856 μm2 , performance speed of 7.11 ns, scheduling accuracy of 94%, and response time of 2.61 ns. Our simulations showed that our proposed method reduced energy consumption by up to 10.02% compared to existing methods. We evaluated the performance of the algorithms on a Zynq 7000 FPGA using the Xilinx Vivado platform via simulations. Our novel algorithm can improve the energy efficiency of green data centers.

Abstract: With the continuous improvement of modern basketball technology, higher requirements have been put forward for the personal abilities of basketball players. As the core of an organization, the offensive ability of a defender largely determines the team’s performance. Therefore, it is necessary to objectively evaluate the attacking ability of defenders.

Abstract: Automatic text summarization is the task of creating concise and fluent summaries without human intervention while preserving the meaning of the original text document. To increase the readability of the languages, a summary should be generated. In this paper, a novel Nesterov-accelerated Adaptive Moment Estimation Optimization based on Long Short-Term Memory [NADAM-LSTM] has been proposed to summarize the text. The proposed NADAM-LSTM model involves three stages namely pre-processing, summary generation, and parameter tuning. Initially, the Giga word Corpus dataset is pre-processed using Tokenization, Word Removal, Stemming, Lemmatization, and Normalization for removing irrelevant data. In the summary generation phase, the text …is converted to the word-to-vector method. Further, the text is fed to LSTM to summarize the text. The parameter of the LSTM is then tuned using NADAM Optimization. The performance analysis of the proposed NADAM-LSTM is calculated based on parameters like accuracy, specificity, Recall, Precision, and F1 score. The suggested NADAM-LSTM achieves an accuracy range of 99.5%. The result illustrates that the proposed NADAM-LSTM enhances the overall accuracy better than 12%, 2.5%, and 1.5% in BERT, CNN-LSTM, and RNN respectively. Show more
