  • State-Mediated Opportunities: Institutional Change and Social Origins of Entrepreneurship in Transitional China

    Open Access•Junyi Ge, Fan Yang et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Organizational Sociology•2026

    This study develops a historical-institutional account of entrepreneurship in China’s market transition by theorizing a core-periphery inversion in the state-mediated opportunity structure. We argue that as state policies evolved, entrepreneurial opportunities oscillated between the periphery and core in the stratification system, determining which social groups had better opportunities to enter entrepreneurship. Using multi-wave national survey …

  • Guided Diffusion Cross-Domain Recommendation With Bilateral Alignment

    Open Access•Wei Zhao, Jiazhe Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•IEEE Transactions on Computational…•2026

    Recommendation systems have been widely applied across various domains. However, they have consistently been hindered by the cold-start problem. One of the recent solutions involves extracting knowledge from other domains and applying it to the target domain’s recommendations. This is also one of the issues that cross-domain recommendation (CDR) aims to address. Mapping methods serve as a means to translate data across distinct domains, thereby b…

  • Graph Neural Networks With Interaction-Aware View Fusion for Graph Classification

    Open Access•Wei Zhao, Mingjian Guang et al.•ARTICLE•IEEE Transactions on Computational…•2026

    Graph neural networks (GNNs) have demonstrated outstanding performance in graph classification tasks. Most existing GNNs designed for graph classification adopt a structure that combines graph convolutional operators with graph pooling operators. However, these methods are often prone to being misled by spurious connections between nodes, which can arise due to noise or inherent data bias. Furthermore, these methods struggle to simultaneously cap…

    Open Access•Yijie Shi, Zi Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Sports and Active…•2026

    Background: Anxiety disorders in children exist on a continuum, ranging from mild symptoms to full clinical diagnoses, underscoring the need for early intervention to reduce long-term effects. Physical activity (PA) has gained attention as a potential, cost-effective intervention. However, the role of psychological resilience (PR) as an intermediary and the impact of parenting styles (PS) as moderators require deeper exploration. Objective: The a…

  • Cognitive diagnosis method via neural networks with transfer learning and Q-matrix constraints

    Jinhong TAO, Wei Zhao et al.•ARTICLE•Acta Psychologica Sinica•2026

    摘要: 神经网络作为最重要的机器学习方法已被广泛地用于认知诊断, 但目前仍没有一种简单通用的神经网络认知诊断方法。因此, 提出一种Q矩阵约束的神经网络认知诊断方法(Bi-QNN), 并基于迁移学习进行训练。新模型的优势在于:(1)使用人员无需专门设计网络结构, 新模型可以根据Q矩阵与交互式Q矩阵自适应任意数据集; (2)网络结构的设计原理源于GDINA模型, 使其能够较好地表达属性的主效应与交互效应; (3)基于迁移学习的模型训练方案能有效地解决标记数据稀缺问题, 提高模型的易用性与适用范围。实验结果表明:Bi-QNN在模拟数据集上的预测误差整体上比参数化方法GDINA与DINA的表现更好; 在一定的范围内, 模型对属性数量敏感性相对较低, 当属性数量增加时在一定程度上仍能保持较好的分类准确率; 基于迁移学习训练的Bi-QNN方法能更好地适应不同样本量的数据集, 在模拟数据与实证数据的多种条件下保持对其它模型的领先; 模型性能的进一步提升受到基于参数模型的模拟数据的限制, 对试题质量仍有…
