In this paper, we propose a three-layer U_(1)A_(1)U_(1)-U_(2)A_(2)U_(2)-SIS coupled model to analyze the co-evolution process of official information dissemination, civil information dissemination and epidemic transmission,considering the interdependencies between the information dissemination channels. The first layer describes the official information dissemination process. The second layer models the civil information dissemination process, considering the effects of perceived risk costs and the role of the correlation between official and civil information. The third layer represents the epidemic transmission process, highlighting the impact of the correlation between official and civil information on epidemic transmission. Then, using the microscopic Markov chain approach, we describe the information-epidemic coupled dynamics and derive the epidemic outbreak threshold. Our research demonstrates that a stronger positive correlation between official and civil information raises the epidemic threshold and suppresses the scale of epidemic transmission. Furthermore, individuals' adoption of civil information should involve a more thorough assessment of the infection risk based on their personal circumstances, which can contribute to more effective epidemic control. Moreover, enhancing infected individuals' accurate comprehension of official information can effectively curb the transmission of the epidemic. Our study highlights the importance of both official and civil information dissemination in epidemic management and provides insights for policymakers in developing effective public health and communication strategies.展开更多

Individuals communicate to acquire relevant knowledge about an epidemic, which influences their decisions to adopt protective measures.However, whether to disseminate specific information is also a behavioral decision. In light of this understanding, we develop a coupled information–vaccination–epidemic model to depict these co-evolutionary dynamics in a three-layer network. Negative information dissemination and vaccination are treated as separate decision-making processes. We then examine the combined effects of herd and risk motives on information dissemination and vaccination decisions through the lens of game theory. The microscopic Markov chain approach(MMCA) is used to describe the dynamic process and to derive the epidemic threshold. Simulation results indicate that increasing the cost of negative information dissemination and providing timely clarification can effectively control the epidemic. Furthermore, a phenomenon of diminishing marginal utility is observed as the cost of dissemination increases, suggesting that authorities do not need to overinvest in suppressing negative information. Conversely, reducing the cost of vaccination and increasing vaccine efficacy emerge as more effective strategies for outbreak control. In addition, we find that the scale of the epidemic is greater when the herd motive dominates behavioral decision-making. In conclusion, this study provides a new perspective for understanding the complexity of epidemic spreading by starting with the construction of different behavioral decisions.展开更多

Information dissemination and policy regulation play crucial roles in influencing and amplifying the spread of green behavior across society. To this end, a novel three-layer model in multilayer networks is proposed. In the novel model, the information layer describes green information spreading, the physical contact layer depicts green behavior propagation, and policy regulation is symbolized by an isolated node beneath the two layers. Then, we deduce the green behavior threshold for the three-layer model using the microscopic Markov chain approach. Moreover, subject to some individuals who are more likely to influence others or become green nodes and the limitations of the capacity of policy regulation, an optimal scheme is given that could optimize policy interventions to most effectively prompt green behavior.Subsequently, simulations are performed to validate the preciseness and theoretical results of the new model. It reveals that policy regulation can prompt the prevalence and outbreak of green behavior. Then, the green behavior is more likely to spread and be prevalent in the SF network than in the ER network. Additionally, optimal allocation is highly successful in facilitating the dissemination of green behavior. In practice, the optimal allocation strategy could prioritize interventions at critical nodes or regions, such as highly connected urban areas, where the impact of green behavior promotion would be most significant.展开更多

Existing studies of personal information protection in China is mainly conducted from the legal perspective with a focus on the development of appropriate legislation and policies at the national level. There is little research on how specific legislation and polices can actually be implemented in an effective manner and what impacts such legislation and policies have on individuals, organizations, and the society. To adequately address this issue, this study investigates the legal requirements for personal information protection based on the relevant laws, regulations, and standards in China. It proposes a comprehensive regime for personal information protection in the networked public sectors in China. Such a regime takes the advantages of existing discipline-based approaches, legal requirements, and control mechanisms for personal information protection. It can be used to facilitate the provision of public services in the networked Chinese public sectors through the adequate protection of personal information and the effective management of personal information.展开更多

Therefore, in this paper, we review the recent advances on information diffusion analysis in social networks and its applications. Specifically, we first shed light on several popular models to describe the information diffusion process in social networks, which enables three practical applications, i.e., influence evaluation, influence maximization and information source detection. Then, we discuss how to evaluate the authority and influence based on network structures. After that, current solutions to influence maximiza- tion and information source detection are discussed in detail, respectively. Finally, some possible research directions of information diffu- sion analysis are listed for further study.展开更多

The microscopic Markov chain approach(MMCA) is used to describe the dynamic process and to derive the epidemic threshold. Simulation results indicate that increasing the cost of negative information dissemination and providing timely clarification can effectively control the epidemic. Furthermore, a phenomenon of diminishing marginal utility is observed as the cost of dissemination increases, suggesting that authorities do not need to overinvest in suppressing negative information. Conversely, reducing the cost of vaccination and increasing vaccine efficacy emerge as more effective strategies for outbreak control. In addition, we find that the scale of the epidemic is greater when the herd motive dominates behavioral decision-making. In conclusion, this study provides a new perspective for understanding the complexity of epidemic spreading by starting with the construction of different behavioral decisions.
文摘While in the past the robustness of transportation networks was studied considering the cyber and physical space as isolated environments this is no longer the case.Integrating the Internet of Things devices in the sensing area of transportation infrastructure has resulted in ubiquitous cyber-physical systems and increasing interdependen-cies between the physical and cyber networks.As a result,the robustness of transportation networks relies on the uninterrupted serviceability of physical and cyber networks.Current studies on interdependent networks overlook the civil engineering aspect of cyber-physical systems.Firstly,they rely on the assumption of a uniform and strong level of interdependency.That is,once a node within a network fails its counterpart fails immedi-ately.Current studies overlook the impact of earthquake and other natural hazards on the operation of modern transportation infrastructure,that now serve as a cyber-physical system.The last is responsible not only for the physical operation(e.g.,flow of vehicles)but also for the continuous data transmission and subsequently the cy-ber operation of the entire transportation network.Therefore,the robustness of modern transportation networks should be modelled from a new cyber-physical perspective that includes civil engineering aspects.In this paper,we propose a new robustness assessment approach for modern transportation networks and their underlying in-terdependent physical and cyber network,subjected to earthquake events.The novelty relies on the modelling of interdependent networks,in the form of a graph,based on their interdependency levels.We associate the service-ability level of the coupled physical and cyber network with the damage states induced by earthquake events.Robustness is then measured as a degradation of the cyber-physical serviceability level.The application of the approach is demonstrated by studying an illustrative transportation network using seismic data from real-world transportation infrastructure.Furthermore,we propose the integration of a robustness improvement indicator based on physical and cyber attributes to enhance the cyber-physical serviceability level.Results indicate an improvement in robustness level(i.e.,41%)by adopting the proposed robustness improvement indicator.The usefulness of our approach is highlighted by comparing it with other methods that consider strong interdepen-dencies and key node protection strategies.The approach is of interest to stakeholders who are attempting to incorporate cyber-physical systems into civil engineering systems.

文摘Information spreading has been investigated for many years,but the mechanism of why the information explosively catches on overnight is still under debate.This explosive spreading phenomenon was usually considered driven separately by social reinforcement or higher-order interactions.However,due to the limitations of empirical data and theoretical analysis,how the higher-order network structure affects the explosive information spreading under the role of social reinforcement has not been fully explored.In this work,we propose an information-spreading model by considering the social reinforcement in real and synthetic higher-order networks,describable as hypergraphs.Depending on the average group size(hyperedge cardinality)and node membership(hyperdegree),we observe two different spreading behaviors:(i)The spreading progress is not sensitive to social reinforcement,resulting in the information localized in a small part of nodes;(ii)a strong social reinforcement will promote the large-scale spread of information and induce an explosive transition.Moreover,a large average group size and membership would be beneficial to the appearance of the explosive transition.Further,we display that the heterogeneity of the node membership and group size distributions benefit the information spreading.Finally,we extend the group-based approximate master equations to verify the simulation results.Our findings may help us to comprehend the rapidly information-spreading phenomenon in modern society.

文摘As the economy grows, environmental issues are becoming increasingly severe, making the promotion of green behavior more urgent. Information dissemination and policy regulation play crucial roles in influencing and amplifying the spread of green behavior across society. To this end, a novel three-layer model in multilayer networks is proposed. In the novel model, the information layer describes green information spreading, the physical contact layer depicts green behavior propagation, and policy regulation is symbolized by an isolated node beneath the two layers. Then, we deduce the green behavior threshold for the three-layer model using the microscopic Markov chain approach. Moreover, subject to some individuals who are more likely to influence others or become green nodes and the limitations of the capacity of policy regulation, an optimal scheme is given that could optimize policy interventions to most effectively prompt green behavior.Subsequently, simulations are performed to validate the preciseness and theoretical results of the new model. It reveals that policy regulation can prompt the prevalence and outbreak of green behavior. Then, the green behavior is more likely to spread and be prevalent in the SF network than in the ER network. Additionally, optimal allocation is highly successful in facilitating the dissemination of green behavior. In practice, the optimal allocation strategy could prioritize interventions at critical nodes or regions, such as highly connected urban areas, where the impact of green behavior promotion would be most significant.

文摘Studies show that Graph Neural Networks(GNNs)are susceptible to minor perturbations.Therefore,analyzing adversarial attacks on GNNs is crucial in current research.Previous studies used Generative Adversarial Networks to generate a set of fake nodes,injecting them into a clean GNNs to poison the graph structure and evaluate the robustness of GNNs.In the attack process,the computation of new node connections and the attack loss are independent,which affects the attack on the GNN.To improve this,a Fake Node Camouflage Attack based on Mutual Information(FNCAMI)algorithm is proposed.By incorporating Mutual Information(MI)loss,the distribution of nodes injected into the GNNs become more similar to the original nodes,achieving better attack results.Since the loss ratios of GNNs and MI affect performance,we also design an adaptive weighting method.By adjusting the loss weights in real-time through rate changes,larger loss values are obtained,eliminating local optima.The feasibility,effectiveness,and stealthiness of this algorithm are validated on four real datasets.Additionally,we use both global and targeted attacks to test the algorithm’s performance.Comparisons with baseline attack algorithms and ablation experiments demonstrate the efficiency of the FNCAMI algorithm.

文摘In this work,we have developed a lignin-derived polymer electrolyte(LSELi),which demonstrates exceptional ionic conductivity of 1.6×10^(-3)S cm^(−1)and a high cation transference number of 0.57 at 25°C.Time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry(TOF-SIMS)analysis shows that the large-size 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cations(EMIM^(+))can induce the aggregation of the anionic segments in lignosulfonate to reconstruct the three-dimensional(3D)spatial structure of polyelectrolyte,thereby forming a fluent Li^(+)transport 3D network.Dielectric loss spectroscopy further reveals that within this transport network,Li^(+)transport is decoupled from the relaxation of lignosulfonate chain segments,exhibiting characteristics of rapid Li^(+)transport.Furthermore,in-situ distribution of relaxation times analysis indicates that a stable solid electrolyte interface layer is formed at the Li plating interface with LSELi,optimizing the Li plating interface and exhibiting low charge transfer impedance and stable Li plating and stripping.Thus,a substantially prolonged cycling stability and reversibility are obtained in the Li||LSELi||Li battery at 25°C(1800 h at 0.1 mA cm^(−2),0.1 mAh cm^(−2)).At 25°C,the Li||LSELi||LiFePO_(4)cell shows 132 mAh g^(−1)of capacity with 92.7%of retention over 120 cycles at 0.1 mA cm^(−2).

文摘Intellectualization has been an inevitable trend in the information network,allowing the network to achieve the capabilities of self-learning,self-optimization,and self-evolution in the dynamic environment.Due to the strong adaptability to the environment,the cognitive theory methods from psychology gradually become an excellent approach to construct the intelligent information network(IIN),making the traditional definition of the intelligent information network no longer appropriate.Moreover,the thinking capability of existing IINs is always limited.This paper redefines the intelligent information network and illustrates the required properties of the architecture,core theory,and critical technologies by analyzing the existing intelligent information network.Besides,we innovatively propose a novel network cognition model with the network knowledge to implement the intelligent information network.The proposed model can perceive the overall environment data of the network and extract the knowledge from the data.As the model’s core,the knowledge guides the model to generate the optimal decisions adapting to the environmental changes.At last,we present the critical technologies needed to accomplish the proposed network cognition model.

文摘In the proposed paper,a parallel structure type Generative Adversarial Network(GAN)using edge and texture information is proposed.In the existing GAN-based model,many learning iterations had to be given to obtaining an output that was somewhat close to the original data,and noise and distortion occurred in the output image even when learning was performed.To solve this problem,the proposed model consists of two generators and three discriminators to propose a network in the form of a parallel structure.In the network,each edge information and texture information were received as inputs,learning was performed,and each character was combined and outputted through the Combine Discriminator.Through this,edge information and distortion of the output image were improved even with fewer iterations than DCGAN,which is the existing GAN-based model.As a result of learning on the network of the proposed model,a clear image with improved contour and distortion of objects in the image was output from about 50,000 iterations.

文摘Recommendation Information Systems(RIS)are pivotal in helping users in swiftly locating desired content from the vast amount of information available on the Internet.Graph Convolution Network(GCN)algorithms have been employed to implement the RIS efficiently.However,the GCN algorithm faces limitations in terms of performance enhancement owing to the due to the embedding value-vanishing problem that occurs during the learning process.To address this issue,we propose a Weighted Forwarding method using the GCN(WF-GCN)algorithm.The proposed method involves multiplying the embedding results with different weights for each hop layer during graph learning.By applying the WF-GCN algorithm,which adjusts weights for each hop layer before forwarding to the next,nodes with many neighbors achieve higher embedding values.This approach facilitates the learning of more hop layers within the GCN framework.The efficacy of the WF-GCN was demonstrated through its application to various datasets.In the MovieLens dataset,the implementation of WF-GCN in LightGCN resulted in significant performance improvements,with recall and NDCG increasing by up to+163.64%and+132.04%,respectively.Similarly,in the Last.FM dataset,LightGCN using WF-GCN enhanced with WF-GCN showed substantial improvements,with the recall and NDCG metrics rising by up to+174.40%and+169.95%,respectively.Furthermore,the application of WF-GCN to Self-supervised Graph Learning(SGL)and Simple Graph Contrastive Learning(SimGCL)also demonstrated notable enhancements in both recall and NDCG across these datasets.

文摘With the increasing sharing and reuse of personal information resources for better public services, the effective protection and management of personal information as organizational and individual assets as well as social resources are becoming more and more important in networked Chinese public sectors. Existing studies of personal information protection in China is mainly conducted from the legal perspective with a focus on the development of appropriate legislation and policies at the national level. There is little research on how specific legislation and polices can actually be implemented in an effective manner and what impacts such legislation and policies have on individuals, organizations, and the society. To adequately address this issue, this study investigates the legal requirements for personal information protection based on the relevant laws, regulations, and standards in China. It proposes a comprehensive regime for personal information protection in the networked public sectors in China. Such a regime takes the advantages of existing discipline-based approaches, legal requirements, and control mechanisms for personal information protection. It can be used to facilitate the provision of public services in the networked Chinese public sectors through the adequate protection of personal information and the effective management of personal information.

文摘Due to the prevalence of social network services, more and more attentions are paid to explore how information diffuses and users affect each other in these networks, which has a wide range of applications, such as viral marketing, reposting prediction and social recommendation. Therefore, in this paper, we review the recent advances on information diffusion analysis in social networks and its applications. Specifically, we first shed light on several popular models to describe the information diffusion process in social networks, which enables three practical applications, i.e., influence evaluation, influence maximization and information source detection. Then, we discuss how to evaluate the authority and influence based on network structures. After that, current solutions to influence maximiza- tion and information source detection are discussed in detail, respectively. Finally, some possible research directions of information diffu- sion analysis are listed for further study.
