文摘Rapid urbanization in China has led to spatial antagonism between urban development and farmland protection and ecological security maintenance.Multi-objective spatial collaborative optimization is a powerful method for achieving sustainable regional development.Previous studies on multi-objective spatial optimization do not involve spatial corrections to simulation results based on the natural endowment of space resources.This study proposes an Ecological Security-Food Security-Urban Sustainable Development(ES-FS-USD)spatial optimization framework.This framework combines the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II(NSGA-II)and patch-generating land use simulation(PLUS)model with an ecological protection importance evaluation,comprehensive agricultural productivity evaluation,and urban sustainable development potential assessment and optimizes the territorial space in the Yangtze River Delta(YRD)region in 2035.The proposed sustainable development(SD)scenario can effectively reduce the destruction of landscape patterns of various land-use types while considering both ecological and economic benefits.The simulation results were further revised by evaluating the land-use suitability of the YRD region.According to the revised spatial pattern for the YRD in 2035,the farmland area accounts for 43.59%of the total YRD,which is 5.35%less than that in 2010.Forest,grassland,and water area account for 40.46%of the total YRD—an increase of 1.42%compared with the case in 2010.Construction land accounts for 14.72%of the total YRD—an increase of 2.77%compared with the case in 2010.The ES-FS-USD spatial optimization framework ensures that spatial optimization outcomes are aligned with the natural endowments of land resources,thereby promoting the sustainable use of land resources,improving the ability of spatial management,and providing valuable insights for decision makers.

文摘Most Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)interpretation techniques visualize only the dominant cues that the model relies on,but there is no guarantee that these represent all the evidence the model uses for classification.This limitation becomes critical when hidden secondary cues—potentially more meaningful than the visualized ones—remain undiscovered.This study introduces CasCAM(Cascaded Class Activation Mapping)to address this fundamental limitation through counterfactual reasoning.By asking“if this dominant cue were absent,what other evidence would the model use?”,CasCAM progressively masks the most salient features and systematically uncovers the hierarchy of classification evidence hidden beneath them.Experimental results demonstrate that CasCAM effectively discovers the full spectrum of reasoning evidence and can be universally applied with nine existing interpretation methods.
基金Application Research of MRI Physiological Quantitative Imaging Technology in the Diagnosis of Cartilage Injury(Project No.:RCYJ2021-04)。
文摘Objective:To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of traditional MRI and T2 Mapping quantitative imaging technology for knee joint cartilage injury,clarify the differences in diagnostic value of the two imaging methods in different injury grades and different cartilage subregions,and provide evidence-based basis for the accurate diagnosis of clinical cartilage injury.Methods:Clinical and imaging data of 286 patients with knee joint lesions admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xiangtan Medicine and Health Vocational College from January 2020 to June 2023 were collected retrospectively.All patients underwent both traditional MRI sequences and T2 Mapping sequences.The knee joint cartilage was divided into 14 subregions.Two senior radiologists independently diagnosed the images of the two imaging technologies using a blind method and recorded the cartilage injury grades.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)of the two technologies for diagnosing cartilage injury were calculated and compared,and the differences in their diagnostic efficacy in different injury grades and different subregions were analyzed.Results:A total of 4004 cartilage subregions from 286 patients were included in the analysis,including 1836 injured subregions and 2168 normal subregions.The overall sensitivity(89.7%),accuracy(91.2%),and AUC(0.946)of T2 Mapping quantitative imaging for diagnosing cartilage injury were significantly higher than those of traditional MRI(76.3%,82.5%,and 0.852 respectively),with statistically significant differences(p<0.001);there was no significant difference in specificity between the two(93.5%vs 90.8%,p=0.062).Subgroup analysis showed that T2 Mapping had the most significant diagnostic advantage in early cartilage injury(Grade 1),with sensitivity(78.5%)33.2%higher than that of traditional MRI(45.3%)(p<0.001).Conclusion:The diagnostic efficacy of T2 Mapping quantitative imaging for knee joint cartilage injury is significantly superior to that of traditional MRI,especially in the detection of early cartilage injury and accurate evaluation of weight-bearing area injury.Data verify its clinical applicability and reliability.It can be used as an important supplementary method to traditional MRI,and is recommended for the early diagnosis,grading evaluation,and clinical follow-up of cartilage injury.

文摘User identity linkage(UIL)across online social networks seeks to match accounts belonging to the same real-world individual.This cross-platformmapping enables accurate user modeling but also raises serious privacy risks.Over the past decade,the research community has developed a wide range of UIL methods,from structural embeddings tomultimodal fusion architectures.However,corresponding adversarial and defensive approaches remain fragmented and comparatively understudied.In this survey,we provide a unified overview of both mapping and antimappingmethods for UIL.We categorize representativemappingmodels by learning paradigmand datamodality,and systematically compare them with emerging countermeasures including adversarial injection,structural perturbation,and identity obfuscation.To bridge these two threads,we introduce amodality-oriented taxonomy and a formal gametheoretic framing that casts cross-network mapping as a contest between mappers and anti-mappers.This framing allows us to construct a cross-modality dependency matrix,which reveals structural information as themost contested signal,identifies node injection as the most robust defensive strategy,and points to multimodal integration as a promising direction.Our survey underscores the need for balanced,privacy-preserving identity inference and provides a foundation for future research on the adversarial dynamics of social identity mapping and defense.

文摘Cotton is an important global cash crops that serve as the primary source of natural fiber for textiles.A thorough understand-ing of the long-term variations in cotton cultivation is vital for optimizing cotton cultivation management and promoting the sustainable development of the cotton industry.Xinjiang is the primary cotton-producing region in China.However,long-term data of cotton cultiv-ation areas with high spatial resolution are unavailable for Xinjiang,China.Therefore,this study aimed to identify and map an accurate 30-m cotton cultivation area dataset in Xinjiang from 2000 to 2020 by applying a Random Forest(RF)-based method that integrates Landsat and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS)images,and validated the applicability and accuracy of dataset at a large spatial scale.Then,this study analyzed the spatiotemporal variations and influencing factors of cotton cultivation in the study period.The results showed that a high classification accuracy was achieved(overall accuracy>85%,F1>0.80),strongly agreeing with county-level agricultural statistical yearbook data(R2>0.72).Significant spatiotemporal variation in the cotton cultivation areas was found in Xinjiang,with a total increase of 1131.26 kha from 2000 to 2020.Notably,cotton cultivation area in southern Xinjiang expan-ded substantially,with that in Aksu increasing from 20.10%in 2000 to 28.17%in 2020,representing an expansion of 374.29 kha.In northern Xinjiang,the cotton areas in the Tacheng region also exhibited significant increased by almost ten percentage points in the same period.In contrast,cotton cultivation in eastern Xinjiang declined,decreasing from 2.22%in 2000 to merely 0.24%in 2020.Standard deviation ellipse analysis revealed a‘northeast-southwest’spatial distribution,with the centroid consistently located in Aksu and shifting 102.96 km over the 20-yr period.Pearson correlation analysis indicated that socioeconomic factors had a stronger influence on cotton cultivation than climatic factors,with effective irrigation area(r=0.963,P<0.05)and total agricultural machinery power(r=0.823)showing significant positive correlations,whereas climatic variables exhibiting weak associations(r<0.200).These results provide valuable scientific data for informed agricultural management,sustainable development,and policymaking.
文摘This study presents a reflective bibliometric review of 1457 peer-reviewed articles published in the Journal of Psychology in Africa(2008-2024,17 years),using a Meta-Editorial Mapping Framework(MEMF)analysis.The MEMF integrates citation metrics,keyword novelty ratios,TF-IDF weighting,and cluster-based topic modeling to trace long-term thematic trends and editorial evolution.Findings reveal sustained attention to foundational domains such as mental health,education,and identity,alongside a gradual integration of emergent themes including digital well-being,organizational behavior,and post-pandemic adaptation.Articles with moderate topical novelty(40%-60% new keywords)achieved the highest citation and usage metrics,suggesting that integrative innovation enhances scholarly impact.Clustering analyses indicate that the journal’s content forms overlapping conceptual domains rather than isolated silos.These insights contribute to editorial strategy,authorial positioning,and the future design of regional academic platforms.Moreover,the findings provide evidence supporting the use of the MEMF as a replicable tool for meta-editorial analysis across disciplinary and geographic boundaries.
