A Hierarchical Mining-Based Approach to Storyline Generation
Events serve as the fundamental units of human society. With the rapid proliferation of information networks and social media, the dissemination of event-related information has become more pervasive. However, this has also introduced challenges such as information fragmentation, redundancy, and noise, which hinder timely and comprehensive understanding of complex events. Recent research has focused on constructing coherent event narratives by or…
Investigation into Noncontact Protective Strategy of Ancient Bridge Foundations against Scour Risk
Scour is a natural hazard caused by water flow on erodible beds and has been identified as one of the key problems leading to the failures of bridges. Unlike those built in recent decades, ancient bridges have served hundreds of years and have been confronted with unpredictable natural hazards and anthropogenic disasters. Meanwhile, considering their historical and cultural value, it is not recommended that ancient bridges be repaired and reconst…

Unveiling the impacts of winter Atlantic Niño/Niña on the Enso decay pace
El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the pronounced interannual variability with tremendous impacts on global climates. As varying ENSO decay pace results in significantly different climate impacts, understanding the factors responsible for ENSO decay is vital for improving the prediction of ENSO evolution and its climate effects. Here we show the sea surface temperature variability peaking in boreal winter over the equatorial Atlantic, dubbed …
Specific vs. ad valorem taxation and social welfare in mixed duopoly with foreign ownership
In this paper, we set up a mixed duopoly competition model between state-owned and private firms in order to compare specific and ad valorem taxes. Assuming that the total output under specific and ad valorem taxation remains unchanged, we find that if the public firm is completely privatised, the output of the private firm under the two tax schemes will be the same. If the public firm is not completely privatised, the output of the the private f…

Effectiveness of mobile robots collecting vital signs and radiation dose rate for patients receiving Iodine-131 radiotherapy
Objective Patients receiving radionuclide 131I treatment expose radiation to others, and there was no clinical trial to verify the effectiveness and safety of mobile robots in radionuclide 131I isolation wards. The objective of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of mobile robots in providing vital signs (body temperature and blood pressure) and radiation dose rate monitoring for patients receiving radionuc…
Exploring the Quantitative Assessment of Spatial Risk in Response to Major Epidemic Disasters in Megacities
With the global spread of various human-to-human epidemics, public health issues have become a focus of attention. Therefore, it is of great importance to improve the quantitative risk assessment of the construction of resilient cities in terms of epidemic disasters. Starting with the dimensions of social activities and material space, this paper took Qingdao, China, with a population of 5 million, as an example, and took its seven municipal dist…
A visualization analysis of poverty alleviation through education research in China
In light of the education situation and anti-poverty goals, Chinese scholars have discussed poverty alleviation through education widely and deeply. Due to the new development period, it is urgent to have large-scale research on poverty alleviation through education. The study adopts a quantitative analysis with visualization software Citespace5.0 to analyze 363 papers in the CSSCI database, which reveals the research themes and topics, contribut…

Objective To explore the utility of the scoring system for screening and early warning of cervical cancer based on big data analysis. Methods A total of 420 women undergoing physical examination in Shenyang from January 2021 to January 2022 were screened by convenient sampling as the study subjects. All females accepted the human papilloma virus (HPV) tests and thin-prep cytology test (TCT), a Rating Questionnaire for Screening and Early Warning …
Severity Analysis of Hazardous Material Road Transportation Crashes with a Bayesian Network Using Highway Safety Information System Data
Although crashes involving hazardous materials (HAZMAT) are rare events compared with other types of traffic crashes, they often cause tremendous loss of life and property, as well as severe hazards to the environment and public safety. Using five-year (2013-2017) crash data (N = 1610) from the Highway Safety Information System database, a two-step machine learning-based approach was proposed to investigate and quantify the statistical relationsh…

Projected changes in global terrestrial near-surface wind speed in 1.5 °C–4.0 °C global warming levels
Understanding future changes in global terrestrial near-surface wind speed (NSWS) in specific global warming level (GWL) is crucial for climate change adaption. Previous studies have projected the NSWS changes; however, the changes of NSWS with different GWLs have yet to be studied. In this paper, we employ the Max Planck Institute Earth System Model large ensembles to evaluate the contributions of different GWLs to the NSWS changes. The results …
Older Clients’ Pathway through the Adaptation System for Independent Living in the UK
Housing adaptation is recognized as an effective intervention for successful independent living and has been given a greater political priority. However, the current adaptation implementation is fragmented and sometimes confusing. This study is aimed at examining blockages in the adaptation system in the United Kingdom (UK) and identifying practical ways to tackle them. It adopted a mixed-method sequential explanatory research strategy. A questio…
Causes of Delays during Housing Adaptation for Healthy Aging in the UK
Housing adaptation is a rehabilitation intervention that removes environmental barriers to help older people accommodate changing needs and age in place. In the UK, funding application for home adaptations to local authorities is subject to several procedural steps, including referral, allocation, assessment, funding and installation. The five stages need to complete in a sequential manner, often cause long delays. This study aims to investigate …
Towards a digitised process-wheel for historic building repair and maintenance projects in Scotland
Purpose With the increasing demand for high-quality economical and sustainable historic building repair and maintenance (R&M) allied with the perennial problem of skills shortages (project management (PM) and on-site practice) investment in new technologies becomes paramount for modernising training and practice. Yet, the historic R&M industry, in particular small- and medium-sized enterprises have yet to benefit from digital technologies (such a…
Service planning and delivery outcomes of home adaptations for ageing in the UK
In response to the impact of demographic change on the healthcare system, ‘ageing in place’ was introduced as a national policy to support elderly people living independently in their homes. Housing adaptation is essential for successful independent living and has been given increased political priority. However, adaptation policies and practice vary regionally, reflecting statutory limits, policy choices and local planning. This study investigat…
Ethnicity, Religion, and Academic Preparedness
Little academic attention has been given to the supplementary education experience of immigrant students in the Canadian research literature, especially in a non-English speaking context such as Quebec. Yet these schools are important for understanding the influence of ethnicity as well as religion on the academic preparedness and social integration of immigrant/minority students in the public school system. From a comparative perspective, this s…
