It was found that environmental variables-including temperature, light, and moisture-elicit directional shifts in static traits ( e.g. , chemical composition, morphological architecture, and leaf tissue structure) toward enhanced environmental adaptation, characterized by graduality, juvenility, similarity, and correlativity. Upon alterations in ambient conditions, flue-cured tobacco modulates its static traits through integrated physical, chemical, and biological-genetic mechanisms, aiming to optimize resource utilization, mitigate environmental constraints, and preserve internal homeostasis alongside metabolic balance. The investigation further reveals that the adaptive scope of flue-cured tobacco to field environments is malleable and can be extended and elevated via adaptive conditioning commencing at the juvenile stage. In addition, the adaptive alignment between static traits and environmental parameters exerts a substantial impact on the plant s growth dynamics, yield performance, and quality attributes. Beyond its relevance to flue-cured tobacco, the proposed theory offers a meaningful framework for elucidating the pervasive adaptive strategies employed by plants and broader biological systems in response to environmental contingencies.展开更多

The results of multiresolution and h- adaptivity analyses on 2-D linear elastostatics and bending plate problems demonstrate that the improper high-gradient indicator will reduce the convergence property of the h- adaptivity analysis, and that the efficiency of the LDT node refinement strategy is better than SNN, and that the presented h-adaptivity analysis scheme is provided with the validity, stability and good convergence property.

文摘In federated learning,backdoor attacks have become an important research topic with their wide application in processing sensitive datasets.Since federated learning detects or modifies local models through defense mechanisms during aggregation,it is difficult to conduct effective backdoor attacks.In addition,existing backdoor attack methods are faced with challenges,such as low backdoor accuracy,poor ability to evade anomaly detection,and unstable model training.To address these challenges,a method called adaptive simulation backdoor attack(ASBA)is proposed.Specifically,ASBA improves the stability of model training by manipulating the local training process and using an adaptive mechanism,the ability of the malicious model to evade anomaly detection by combing large simulation training and clipping,and the backdoor accuracy by introducing a stimulus model to amplify the impact of the backdoor in the global model.Extensive comparative experiments under five advanced defense scenarios show that ASBA can effectively evade anomaly detection and achieve high backdoor accuracy in the global model.Furthermore,it exhibits excellent stability and effectiveness after multiple rounds of attacks,outperforming state-of-the-art backdoor attack methods.

文摘Background:Investigators from low-,middle-,and high-income countries representing 6 continents contributed to the development of the Global Adolescent and Child Physical Activity Questionnaire(GAC-PAQ).The GAC-PAQ is designed to assess physical activity(PA)across all key domains(i.e.,school,chores,work/volunteering,transport,free time,outdoor time).It aimed to address multiple gaps in global PA surveillance(e.g.,omission of important PA domains,insufficient cultural adaptation,underrepresentation of rural areas in questionnaire validation studies).The purpose of this study was to assess the content validity of the GAC-PAQ among PA experts,8-to 17-year-olds,and one of their parents/guardians,and to discuss changes made to the questionnaire based on participants'feedback.Methods:Sixty-two experts in PA measurement and/or surveillance from 24 countries completed an online survey that included both closed-and open-ended questions about the content validity of the GAC-PAQ.The proportion of experts who agreed or strongly agreed with the items was calculated.Child-parent/guardian dyads from 15 countries(n=250;10-40 per country)participated in a structured cognitive interview to assess the clarity of the questions and response options,and they were encouraged to provide suggestions to improve clarity and facilitate completion of the questionnaire.Participating countries are:Aotearoa New Zealand,Brazil,Canada,China,Colombia,Czech Republic,India,Malawi,Mexico,Nepal,Nigeria,Spain,Sweden,Thailand,and the United Arab Emirates.Interviews were conducted in 13 different languages and structured by PA domain.Generic images were included to help participants in answering questions about PA intensity.Results:Expert agreement with the items for each domain exceeded 75%,and their qualitative feedback was used to revise the questionnaire before cognitive interviews.In general,participants found the questionnaire to be comprehensive.Adolescents(12-17 years)found it easier than children(8-11 years)to answer the questions.Several children struggled to answer questions about the duration and intensity of activities and/or concepts related to travel modes,active trips,and organized activities.Many parents/guardians were unsure about the frequency,duration,and intensity of their children's or adolescents'PA at school and/or recommended using more culturally relevant and appropriate images.Some participants misunderstood the concept of activities that“make you stronger”(intended to assess resistance activities)and/or struggled to differentiate between work,volunteering,and chores.Conclusion:Participants'feedback was used to develop a revised,simplified,and culturally adapted GAC-PAQ,which will be pilot-tested in all15 countries in an App that will include country-specific images and narration in local languages.Further research is needed to assess the reliability and validity of the revised GAC-PAQ.

文摘Starting from the foundational static traits underlying the growth and development of flue-cured tobacco, this research conducts a systematic examination of the phenomena and theoretical principles associated with environment-driven adaptive changes during its cultivation. It was found that environmental variables-including temperature, light, and moisture-elicit directional shifts in static traits ( e.g. , chemical composition, morphological architecture, and leaf tissue structure) toward enhanced environmental adaptation, characterized by graduality, juvenility, similarity, and correlativity. Upon alterations in ambient conditions, flue-cured tobacco modulates its static traits through integrated physical, chemical, and biological-genetic mechanisms, aiming to optimize resource utilization, mitigate environmental constraints, and preserve internal homeostasis alongside metabolic balance. The investigation further reveals that the adaptive scope of flue-cured tobacco to field environments is malleable and can be extended and elevated via adaptive conditioning commencing at the juvenile stage. In addition, the adaptive alignment between static traits and environmental parameters exerts a substantial impact on the plant s growth dynamics, yield performance, and quality attributes. Beyond its relevance to flue-cured tobacco, the proposed theory offers a meaningful framework for elucidating the pervasive adaptive strategies employed by plants and broader biological systems in response to environmental contingencies.
文摘After billions of years of evolution,biological intelligence has converged on unrivalled energy efficiency and environmental adaptability.The human brain,for instance,is highly efficient in information transmission,consuming only about 20 W onaverage in a resting state[1,2].A key to this efficiency is that biological signal transduction and processing rely significantly on multi-ions as the signal carriers.Inspired by this paradigm.

文摘Accurate photovoltaic(PV)power generation forecasting is essential for the efficient integration of renewable energy into power grids.However,the nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics of PV power signals,driven by fluctuating weather conditions,pose significant challenges for reliable prediction.This study proposes a DOEP(Decomposition–Optimization–Error Correction–Prediction)framework,a hybrid forecasting approach that integrates adaptive signal decomposition,machine learning,metaheuristic optimization,and error correction.The PV power signal is first decomposed using CEEMDAN to extract multi-scale temporal features.Subsequently,the hyperparameters and window sizes of the LSSVM are optimized using a Segment-based EBQPSO strategy.The main novelty of the proposed DOEP framework lies in the incorporation of Segment-based EBQPSO as a structured optimization mechanism that balances elite exploitation and population diversity during LSSVM tuning within the CEEMDAN-based forecasting pipeline.This strategy effectively mitigates convergence instability and sensitivity to initialization,which are common limitations in existing hybrid PV forecasting models.Each IMF is then predicted individually and aggregated to generate an initial forecast.In the error-correction stage,the residual error series is modeled using LSTM,and the final prediction is obtained by combining the initial forecast with the predicted error component.The proposed framework is evaluated using two PV power plant datasets with different levels of complexity.The results demonstrate that DOEP consistently outperforms benchmark models across multiple error-based and goodness-of-fit metrics,achieving MSE reductions of approximately 15%–60%on the ResPV-BDG dataset and 37%–92%on the NREL dataset.Analyses of predicted vs.observed values and residual distributions further confirm the superior calibration and robustness of the proposed approach.Although the DOEP framework entails higher computational costs than single model methods,it delivers significantly improved accuracy and stability for PV power forecasting under complex operating conditions.
文摘The rapidly evolving cybersecurity threat landscape exposes a critical flaw in traditional educational programs where static curricula cannot adapt swiftly to novel attack vectors.This creates a significant gap between theoretical knowledge and the practical defensive capabilities needed in the field.To address this,we propose TeachSecure-CTI,a novel framework for adaptive cybersecurity curriculumgeneration that integrates real-time Cyber Threat Intelligence(CTI)with AI-driven personalization.Our framework employs a layered architecture featuring a CTI ingestion and clusteringmodule,natural language processing for semantic concept extraction,and a reinforcement learning agent for adaptive content sequencing.Bydynamically aligning learningmaterialswithboththe evolving threat environment and individual learner profiles,TeachSecure-CTI ensures content remains current,relevant,and tailored.A 12-week study with 150 students across three institutions demonstrated that the framework improves learning gains by 34%,significantly exceeding the 12%–21%reported in recent literature.The system achieved 84.8%personalization accuracy,85.9%recognition accuracy for MITRE ATT&CK tactics,and a 31%faster competency development rate compared to static curricula.These findings have implications beyond academia,extending to workforce development,cyber range training,and certification programs.By bridging the gap between dynamic threats and static educational materials,TeachSecure-CTI offers an empirically validated,scalable solution for cultivating cybersecurity professionals capable of responding to modern threats.

文摘Background:As an important indicator of subjective well-being(SWB),decent work is a key guarantee for the sustainable development of teachers and their psychological health and work quality.Faced with the rapid development of artificial intelligence and the global labor market,vocational college teachers are facing challenges such as workload pressure and limited career development,which may harm their well-being.This study aims to localize the measurement method of decent work in Chinese vocational education based on the theory of the Psychology of Working Theory,and explore the relationship mechanism between organizational support,career adaptability,decent work,and job satisfaction among vocational college teachers.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 422 HVCU teachers in China(202 male,220 female)using the localized Perceived Organizational Support Scale,Career Adaptability Scale,Decent Work Scale,and Job Satisfaction Scale.Results:The overall level of HVCU teachers’decent work was above the median(Mean=4.09,SD=0.69),laying a foundation for their SWB.Decent work significantly and positively predicted job satisfaction(β=0.620,p<0.001).Organizational support(r=0.58,p<0.001)and career adaptability(r=0.82,p<0.001)can positively affect decent work,and further improve job satisfaction(collective R2 rising from 38.3%to 41.1%).Bootstrap analysis confirmed these mediating effects were robust.Conclusions:This study confirms that the combined effects of organizational support and career adaptability can enhance decent work,further improving teachers’job satisfaction and subsequent subjective well-being.Besides,this study provides an empirical basis for improving the well-being of higher vocational teachers and the sustainable development of vocational education,and has practical significance for improving the teacher incentive policy.
文摘This article presents an adaptive intelligent control strategy applied to a lumped-parameter evaporator model,i.e.,a simplified dynamic representation treating the evaporator as a single thermal node with uniform temperature distribution,suitable for control design due to its balance between physical fidelity and computational simplicity.The controller uses a wavelet-based neural proportional,integral,derivative(PID)controller with IIR filtering(infinite impulse response).The dynamic model captures the essential heat and mass transfer phenomena through a nonlinear energy balance,where the cooling capacity“Qevap”is expressed as a non-linear function of the compressor frequency and the temperature difference,specifically,Q_(evap)=k_(1)u(T_(in)−T_(e))with u as compressor frequency,Te evaporator temperature,and Tin inlet fluid temperature.The operating conditions of the system,in general terms,focus on the following variables,the overall thermal capacity is 1000 J/K,typical for small-capacity heat exchangers,The mass flow is 0.05 kg/s,typical for secondary liquid cooling circuits,the overall loss coefficient of 50 W/K that corresponds to small evaporators with partial insulation,the temperatures(inlet)of 10℃and the temperature of environment of 25℃,thermal load of 200 W that corresponds to a small-scaled air conditioning applications.To handle system nonlinearities and improve control performance,aMorlet wavelet-based neural network(Wavenet)is used to dynamically adjust the PID gains online.An IIR filter is incorporated to smooth the adaptive gains,improving stability and reducing oscillations.In contrast to prior wavelet-or neural-adaptive PID controllers in HVAC applications,which typically adjust gains without explicit filtering or not tailored to evaporator dynamics,this work introduces the first PID–Wavenet scheme augmented with an IIR-based stabilization layer,specifically designed to address the combined challenges of nonlinear evaporator behavior,gain oscillation,and real-time implementability.The proposed controller(PID-Wavenet+IIR)is implemented and validated inMATLAB/Simulink,demonstrating superior performance compared to a conventional PID tuned using Simulink’s auto-tuning function.Key results include a reduction in settling time from 13.3 to 8.2 s,a reduction in overshoot from 3.5%to 0.8%,a reduction in steady-state error from 0.12℃ to 0.02℃and a 13%reduction in energy overall consumption.The controller also exhibits greater robustness and adaptability under varying thermal loads.This explicit integration of wavelet-driven adaptation with IIR-filtered gain shaping constitutes the main methodological contribution and novelty of the work.These findings validate the effectiveness of the wavelet-based adaptive approach for advanced thermal management in refrigeration and HVAC systems,with potential applications in controlling variable-speed compressors,liquid chillers,and compact cooling units.
