However, the response of global black carbon(BC) aging to emission changes remains unclear. Using the Community Atmosphere Model version 6 with a machine-learning-integrated four-mode version of the Modal Aerosol Module, we quantify global BC aging responses to emission reductions for 2011–2018 and for 2050 and 2100 under carbon neutrality. During 2011–18, global trends in BC aging degree(mass ratio of coatings to BC, R_(BC)) exhibited marked regional disparities, with a significant increase in China(5.4% yr^(-1)), which contrasts with minimal changes in the USA, Europe, and India. The divergence is attributed to opposing trends in secondary organic aerosol(SOA) and sulfate coatings, driven by regional changes in the emission ratios of corresponding coating precursors to BC(volatile organic compounds-VOCs/BC and SO_(2)/BC). Projections under carbon neutrality reveal that R_(BC) will increase globally by 47%(118%) in 2050(2100), with strong convergent increases expected across major source regions. The R_(BC) increase, primarily driven by enhanced SOA coatings due to sharper BC reductions relative to VOCs, will enhance the global BC mass absorption cross-section(MAC) by 11%(17%) in 2050(2100).Consequently, although the global BC burden will decline sharply by 60%(76%), the enhanced MAC partially offsets the magnitude of the decline in the BC direct radiative effect, resulting in the moderation of global BC DRE decreases to 88%(92%) of the BC burden reductions in 2050(2100). This study highlights the globally enhanced BC aging and light absorption capacity under carbon neutrality, thereby partly offsetting the impact of BC direct emission reductions on future changes in BC radiative effects globally.展开更多

文摘The uplift resistance of the soil overlying shield tunnels significantly impacts their anti-floating stability.However,research on uplift resistance concerning special-shaped shield tunnels is limited.This study combines numerical simulation with machine learning techniques to explore this issue.It presents a summary of special-shaped tunnel geometries and introduces a shape coefficient.Through the finite element software,Plaxis3D,the study simulates six key parameters—shape coefficient,burial depth ratio,tunnel’s longest horizontal length,internal friction angle,cohesion,and soil submerged bulk density—that impact uplift resistance across different conditions.Employing XGBoost and ANN methods,the feature importance of each parameter was analyzed based on the numerical simulation results.The findings demonstrate that a tunnel shape more closely resembling a circle leads to reduced uplift resistance in the overlying soil,whereas other parameters exhibit the contrary effects.Furthermore,the study reveals a diminishing trend in the feature importance of buried depth ratio,internal friction angle,tunnel longest horizontal length,cohesion,soil submerged bulk density,and shape coefficient in influencing uplift resistance.

文摘The backwater effect caused by tributary inflow can significantly elevate the water level profile upstream of a confluence point.However,the influence of mainstream and confluence discharges on the backwater effect in a river reach remains unclear.In this study,various hydrological data collected from the Jingjiang Reach of the Yangtze River in China were statistically analyzed to determine the backwater degree and range with three representative mainstream discharges.The results indicated that the backwater degree increased with mainstream discharge,and a positive relationship was observed between the runoff ratio and backwater degree at specific representative mainstream discharges.Following the operation of the Three Gorges Project,the backwater effect in the Jingjiang Reach diminished.For instance,mean backwater degrees for low,moderate,and high mainstream discharges were recorded as 0.83 m,1.61 m,and 2.41 m during the period from 1990 to 2002,whereas these values decreased to 0.30 m,0.95 m,and 2.08 m from 2009 to 2020.The backwater range extended upstream as mainstream discharge increased from 7000 m3/s to 30000 m3/s.Moreover,a random forest-based machine learning model was used to quantify the backwater effect with varying mainstream and confluence discharges,accounting for the impacts of mainstream discharge,confluence discharge,and channel degradation in the Jingjiang Reach.At the Jianli Hydrological Station,a decrease in mainstream discharge during flood seasons resulted in a 7%–15%increase in monthly mean backwater degree,while an increase in mainstream discharge during dry seasons led to a 1%–15%decrease in monthly mean backwater degree.Furthermore,increasing confluence discharge from Dongting Lake during June to July and September to November resulted in an 11%–42%increase in monthly mean backwater degree.Continuous channel degradation in the Jingjiang Reach contributed to a 6%–19%decrease in monthly mean backwater degree.Under the influence of these factors,the monthly mean backwater degree in 2017 varied from a decrease of 53%to an increase of 37%compared to corresponding values in 1991.

文摘Gas hydrate(GH)is an unconventional resource estimated at 1000-120,000 trillion m^(3)worldwide.Research on GH is ongoing to determine its geological and flow characteristics for commercial produc-tion.After two large-scale drilling expeditions to study the GH-bearing zone in the Ulleung Basin,the mineral composition of 488 sediment samples was analyzed using X-ray diffraction(XRD).Because the analysis is costly and dependent on experts,a machine learning model was developed to predict the mineral composition using XRD intensity profiles as input data.However,the model’s performance was limited because of improper preprocessing of the intensity profile.Because preprocessing was applied to each feature,the intensity trend was not preserved even though this factor is the most important when analyzing mineral composition.In this study,the profile was preprocessed for each sample using min-max scaling because relative intensity is critical for mineral analysis.For 49 test data among the 488 data,the convolutional neural network(CNN)model improved the average absolute error and coefficient of determination by 41%and 46%,respectively,than those of CNN model with feature-based pre-processing.This study confirms that combining preprocessing for each sample with CNN is the most efficient approach for analyzing XRD data.The developed model can be used for the compositional analysis of sediment samples from the Ulleung Basin and the Korea Plateau.In addition,the overall procedure can be applied to any XRD data of sediments worldwide.

文摘In the near-infrared(NIR)spectroscopic data of complex sample systems,such as tobacco leaves,nonlinearity is fairly significant between the absorbance and concentration.This nonlinearity severely degrades the quantitative results of traditional methods,such as partial least squares regression(PLS),which can be used to construct linear models.The problem was addressed in this study by using deep learning(DL).We employed three different DL models:a one-dimensional convolutional neural network(1D CNN),a deep neural network(DNN),and a stacked autoencoder with feedforward neural networks(SAE-FNNs).By carefully selecting and tuning the architectures and parameters of these models,we were able to find the most suitable model for dealing with such nonlinear relationships.Our experimental findings reveal that both the DNN and the SAE-FNN models excel in addressing the nonlinear issues of pectin concentration in tobacco,surpassing the performance of the classic linear model(PLS).Specifically,the DNN model stands out for its low average root mean squared error of prediction(RMSEP)value and small standard deviation(SD)of RMSEPs,leading to a tighter and more centered distribution of residuals in the prediction set.These DL models not only proficiently identify complex patterns within NIR data but also boast high prediction accuracy and fast implementation,demonstrating their effectiveness in analytical applications.
文摘Depression is a prevalent mental health disorder characterized by high relapse rates,highlighting the need for effective preventive interventions.This paper reviews the potential of reinforcement learning(RL)in preventing depression relapse.RL,a subset of artificial intelligence,utilizes machine learning algorithms to analyze behavioral data,enabling early detection of relapse risk and optimization of personalized interventions.RL's ability to tailor treatment in real-time by adapting to individual needs and responses offers a dynamic alternative to traditional therapeutic approaches.Studies have demonstrated the efficacy of RL in customizing e-Health interventions and integrating mobile sensing with machine learning for adaptive mental health systems.Despite these advantages,challenges remain in algorithmic complexity,ethical considerations,and clinical implementation.Addressing these issues is crucial for the successful integration of RL into mental health care.This paper concludes with recommendations for future research directions,emphasizing the need for larger-scale studies and interdisciplinary collaboration to fully realize RL’s potential in improving mental health outcomes and preventing depression relapse.

文摘Sentiment Analysis,a significant domain within Natural Language Processing(NLP),focuses on extracting and interpreting subjective information-such as emotions,opinions,and attitudes-from textual data.With the increasing volume of user-generated content on social media and digital platforms,sentiment analysis has become essential for deriving actionable insights across various sectors.This study presents a systematic literature review of sentiment analysis methodologies,encompassing traditional machine learning algorithms,lexicon-based approaches,and recent advancements in deep learning techniques.The review follows a structured protocol comprising three phases:planning,execution,and analysis/reporting.During the execution phase,67 peer-reviewed articles were initially retrieved,with 25 meeting predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria.The analysis phase involved a detailed examination of each study’s methodology,experimental setup,and key contributions.Among the deep learning models evaluated,Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)networks were identified as the most frequently adopted architecture for sentiment classification tasks.This review highlights current trends,technical challenges,and emerging opportunities in the field,providing valuable guidance for future research and development in applications such as market analysis,public health monitoring,financial forecasting,and crisis management.
文摘The prevailing consensus in statistical literature is that multiple imputation is generally the most suitable method for addressing missing data in statistical analyses,whereas a complete case analysis is deemed appropriate only when the rate of missingness is negligible or when the missingness mechanism is missing completely at random(MCAR).This study investigates the applicability of this consensus within the context of supervised machine learning,with particular emphasis on the interactions between the imputation method,missingness mechanism,and missingness rate.Furthermore,we examine the time efficiency of these“state-of-the-art”imputation methods considering the time-sensitive nature of certain machine learning applications.Utilizing ten real-world datasets,we introduced missingness at rates ranging from approximately 5%–75%under the MCAR,missing at random(MAR),and missing not at random(MNAR)mechanisms.We subsequently address missing data using five methods:complete case analysis(CCA),mean imputation,hot deck imputation,regression imputation,and multiple imputation(MI).Statistical tests are conducted on the machine learning outcomes,and the findings are presented and analyzed.Our investigation reveals that in nearly all scenarios,CCA performs comparably to MI,even with substantial levels of missingness under the MAR and MNAR conditions and with missingness in the output variable for regression problems.Under some conditions,CCA surpasses MI in terms of its performance.Thus,given the considerable computational demands associated with MI,the application of CCA is recommended within the broader context of supervised machine learning,particularly in big-data environments.

文摘Countries around the world have been making efforts to reduce pollutant emissions. However, the response of global black carbon(BC) aging to emission changes remains unclear. Using the Community Atmosphere Model version 6 with a machine-learning-integrated four-mode version of the Modal Aerosol Module, we quantify global BC aging responses to emission reductions for 2011–2018 and for 2050 and 2100 under carbon neutrality. During 2011–18, global trends in BC aging degree(mass ratio of coatings to BC, R_(BC)) exhibited marked regional disparities, with a significant increase in China(5.4% yr^(-1)), which contrasts with minimal changes in the USA, Europe, and India. The divergence is attributed to opposing trends in secondary organic aerosol(SOA) and sulfate coatings, driven by regional changes in the emission ratios of corresponding coating precursors to BC(volatile organic compounds-VOCs/BC and SO_(2)/BC). Projections under carbon neutrality reveal that R_(BC) will increase globally by 47%(118%) in 2050(2100), with strong convergent increases expected across major source regions. The R_(BC) increase, primarily driven by enhanced SOA coatings due to sharper BC reductions relative to VOCs, will enhance the global BC mass absorption cross-section(MAC) by 11%(17%) in 2050(2100).Consequently, although the global BC burden will decline sharply by 60%(76%), the enhanced MAC partially offsets the magnitude of the decline in the BC direct radiative effect, resulting in the moderation of global BC DRE decreases to 88%(92%) of the BC burden reductions in 2050(2100). This study highlights the globally enhanced BC aging and light absorption capacity under carbon neutrality, thereby partly offsetting the impact of BC direct emission reductions on future changes in BC radiative effects globally.

文摘The development of machine learning has provided a new perspective for the design of electromagnetic metastructures,particularly in the rapid design of key performance metrics such as effective absorption bandwidth.Traditional methods,grounded in electromagnetic theory and empirical approaches,often lacked sufficient flexibility and adaptability.In this work,three types of machine learning models were developed to establish the relationship between effective absorption bandwidth and structural parameters.The results indicated that the random forest model achieved the most accurate and efficient design for this task.Then,the additive manufacturing optimal metastructure obtained using this approach outperformed existing designs in terms of both effective absorption bandwidth and reflectivity,while also exhibiting superior radar stealth performance and mechanical load-bearing capacity.Furthermore,through interpretable machine learning and data analysis,the intrinsic mechanisms underlying the relationship between effective absorption bandwidth and structural parameters were revealed.Overall,this work introduced a novel approach to metastructure design and enhanced the understanding of the relationship between structural parameters and electromagnetic properties,providing a key foundation for future design.
