Nitrogen Enrichment Enhances Soil Multifunctionality Through Distinct Drivers Across Urban, Suburban, and Rural Forests
The accelerating pace of urban expansion has profoundly reshaped urban–rural ecosystems, altering soil environments and impairing key ecological services. However, the combined impacts of urban expansion and atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on soil multifunctionality—the capacity to sustain multiple ecological processes—remain poorly understood. Here, we conducted a six‐year N addition experiment (2018–2024) in urban, suburban, and rural fores…
Voice interaction under cognitive load: Non-verbal auditory inputs for automated vehicles
In automated vehicles (AVs), the driver’s dual role as system supervisor and participant in Non-Driving Related Activities (NDRAs) poses a critical human-computer interaction challenge by competing for limited cognitive resources. While large language models have substantially advanced the semantic understanding of voice interaction, the mechanism aspect of how users initiate, maintain, and terminate commands remain underexplored in terms of usab…

Culture and Sketching: Comparative Analysis of UK and Chinese Designers
This research investigates the influence of culture on sketching by comparing UK and Chinese designers. We employed a novel dual‐method approach: machine learning algorithms analyzed a dataset of 2,090 digitized sketches from student designers, while protocol analysis based on shape transformation rules examined the sketching processes of professional designers from both cultures. The machine learning analysis classified sketches by extracting re…
A new approach for modeling mobility tables: Based on community detection methods
Based on community detection methods in social networks, a new approach is presented for understanding and fitting social mobility processes. As a community detection algorithm, eigenspectrum decomposition is applied to identify optimal community structures in which most shares of the relations are within community ties. Through this approach, one may construct a log-linear model by adding community effects to an independence model until the mode…

Fertility choices in China under the two-child policy
Individuals who are economically well-off, or who possess a specific or mixed-gender preference for their children tend to have a much higher intention to have two children. The findings of this study strongly support the fact that 'cultural factors' play an important role in determining Chinese people's intention to have two children. But for policymakers, the overall findings imply that the 'two-child' policy is likely ineffective in stimulatin…

Feature-Frequency–Adaptive On-line Training for Fast and Accurate Natural Language Processing
Training speed and accuracy are two major concerns of large-scale natural language processing systems. Typically, we need to make a tradeoff between speed and accuracy. It is trivial to improve the training speed via sacrificing accuracy or to improve the accuracy via sacrificing speed. Nevertheless, it is nontrivial to improve the training speed and the accuracy at the same time, which is the target of this work. To reach this target, we present…
