Precision marketing, as a key means to improve marketing efficiency, highly depends on a deep understanding of customer behavior. This study proposes a theoretical framework for multi-dimensional customer behavior analysis, aiming to comprehensively capture customer behavioral characteristics in the digital environment. This framework integrates concepts of multi-source data including transaction history, browsing trajectories, social media interactions, and location information, constructing a theoretically more comprehensive customer profile. The research discusses the potential applications of this theoretical framework in precision marketing scenarios such as personalized recommendations, cross-selling, and customer churn prevention. Through analysis, the study points out that multi-dimensional analysis may significantly improve the targeting and theoretical conversion rates of marketing activities. However, the research also explores theoretical challenges that may be faced in the application process, such as data privacy and information overload, and proposes corresponding conceptual coping strategies. This study provides a new theoretical perspective on how businesses can optimize marketing decisions using big data thinking while respecting customer privacy, laying a foundation for future empirical research.展开更多

This study aims to develop a system that is able to identify whether or not the people need help in a public place. Different from previous work, our work considers not only the behaviors of the target person but also the interaction between him and nearby people. In the paper, we propose an event alarm system which can detect the human behaviors and recognize the happening event through integrating the results generated from the single and group behavior analysis. Several new effective features are proposed in the study. Besides, a mechanism capable of extracting one-to-one and multiple-to-one relations is also developed. Experimental results show that the proposed approach can correctly detect human behaviors and provide the alarm messages when emergency events occur.展开更多

As a result, ship traffic has become more congested. Moreover, ship navigation is susceptible to weather and environmental conditions, and in some cases, it may become dangerous. Therefore, vessels are subjected to high-risk navigation conditions. To understand the latent risk of ship navigation, this study focused on the actual ship behavior. Thus, an analysis of ship behavior was carded out using historical ship navigation based on automatic identification system data. Consequently, a dynamic analysis of the speed and encounter situation was performed. One of the main results of this work was the understanding of the latent risk involved in ships navigating the Seto Inland Sea, which is one of the most congested routes in Japan. Moreover, the risk areas were obtained, and visualized using a geographical information system. The obtained results can be applied to ensure safe navigation and the development of a safe and efficient navigation model.展开更多

The comparison effect is the key issue of public good provision both in theoretical analysis and in practice. One major contribution of the paper is the extension of Clarke-Groves mechanism, to achieve which strategic behavior analysis is applied through the analysis and the comparison effect among various stakeholders in different stages is created and highly emphasized. In the first section of this paper, the definition of integrated water resources management （IWRM）, the importance of stakeholder participation as well as some models and methods that have been applied are illustrated. Following this, the framework of analysis is elaborated, in which the scenario and aims are shown, and it is claimed that game theory is the main approach, which includes both cooperative games and non-cooperative games. To achieve the aims of the public project, five approaches from game theory are able to cover the entire process of the project, and the fourth approach on interest compensation mechanism is the highlight of the research. After this, the interest compensation mechanism is demonstrated in the model section, and is proved to be an incentive compatible mechanism that makes each stakeholder choose to behave in accordance with the interest of the entire project. The Clarke-Groves mechanism is applied and extended in establishing the model, and the utility change by the comparison among stakeholders （defined as the comparison effect） is involved. In the application section, a water project is analyzed in consideration of various stakeholders, and other possible applications are also indicated.展开更多

In order to better improve the behavior habits and speech and social disorders of autistic children, I will mainly talk about the most effective intervention method-the application of behavior analysis therapy. We can use this method to analyze various behaviors of autistic children, distinguish the good behavior and the bad behavior, help autistic children to establish good behaviors, and at the same time improve or eliminate their problem behaviors, so that they can better communicate with people and integrate into social life. In fact, these autistic children from the stars are not so difficult to get along with. As long as we really help them with our heart and let them enter our hearts, slowly you will find that you have also entered their hearts. "Application of behavior analysis therapy" is to decompose the target task (i.e. teaching knowledge, skills, behaviors, habits, etc.) into a series of smaller or relatively independent links according to a certain method and order, and then use appropriate reinforcement methods to train each small link step by step according to the order determined by the task decomposition, until the children master all links, and finally can complete the task independently, and can apply the knowledge and skills they have learned in other situations. "Applied behavioral analysis" mainly emphasizes the change and shaping of autisms explicit behavior. It uses the principle and method of operation restriction to shape childrens behavior, designs corresponding situations according to childrens behavior and selects the reinforcement that can affect the target behavior, and establishes new adaptive behavior with their spontaneous reaction behavior to eliminate or improve inappropriate behavior caused by autism symptoms.展开更多

We can use this method to analyze various behaviors of autistic children, distinguish the good behavior and the bad behavior, help autistic children to establish good behaviors, and at the same time improve or eliminate their problem behaviors, so that they can better communicate with people and integrate into social life. In fact, these autistic children from the stars are not so difficult to get along with. As long as we really help them with our heart and let them enter our hearts, slowly you will find that you have also entered their hearts. "Application of behavior analysis therapy" is to decompose the target task (i.e. teaching knowledge, skills, behaviors, habits, etc.) into a series of smaller or relatively independent links according to a certain method and order, and then use appropriate reinforcement methods to train each small link step by step according to the order determined by the task decomposition, until the children master all links, and finally can complete the task independently, and can apply the knowledge and skills they have learned in other situations. "Applied behavioral analysis" mainly emphasizes the change and shaping of autisms explicit behavior. It uses the principle and method of operation restriction to shape childrens behavior, designs corresponding situations according to childrens behavior and selects the reinforcement that can affect the target behavior, and establishes new adaptive behavior with their spontaneous reaction behavior to eliminate or improve inappropriate behavior caused by autism symptoms.
文摘In this commentary,we respond to Zhao et al’s recent paper which focuses on mechanisms underlying insomnia sufferers’engagement with acupuncture.Insomnia,a prevalent condition characterized by difficulty falling asleep and poor sleep quality,is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease,diabetes,and psychiatric illness.Acupuncture,a method involving the therapeutic placement of needles,has been widely accepted as a treatment for insomnia with minimal side effects.In fact,clinical trials suggest auricular acupuncture may improve sleep duration more than cognitive behavioral therapy.However,responses to acupuncture vary.Some patients find it extremely beneficial,while others view it as a routine treatment—or avoid it altogether due to needle phobia.Patient engagement is influenced by cultural beliefs,encouragement,motivation,prior experiences,and recommendations from peers or clinicians.Trust in the physician and testimonials from recovered patients are particularly important facilitators.Looking ahead,a holistic approach-integrating acupuncture with meditation,pranayama,yoga,and other restorative practices-may enhance treatment effectiveness and help patients achieve restorative sleep.

文摘Ransomware is malware that encrypts data without permission,demanding payment for access.Detecting ransomware on Android platforms is challenging due to evolving malicious techniques and diverse application behaviors.Traditional methods,such as static and dynamic analysis,suffer from polymorphism,code obfuscation,and high resource demands.This paper introduces a multi-stage approach to enhance behavioral analysis for Android ransomware detection,focusing on a reduced set of distinguishing features.The approach includes ransomware app collection,behavioral profile generation,dataset creation,feature identification,reduction,and classification.Experiments were conducted on∼3300 Android-based ransomware samples,despite the challenges posed by their evolving nature and complexity.The feature reduction strategy successfully reduced features by 80%,with only a marginal loss of detection accuracy(0.59%).Different machine learning algorithms are employed for classification and achieve 96.71%detection accuracy.Additionally,10-fold cross-validation demonstrated robustness,yielding an AUC-ROC of 99.3%.Importantly,latency and memory evaluations revealed that models using the reduced feature set achieved up to a 99%reduction in inference time and significant memory savings across classifiers.The proposed approach outperforms existing techniques by achieving high detection accuracy with a minimal feature set,also suitable for deployment in resource-constrained environments.Future work may extend datasets and include iOS-based ransomware applications.
文摘The vast amount of data generated by large-scale open online course platforms provide a solid foundation for the analysis of learning behavior in the field of education.This study utilizes the historical and final learning behavior data of over 300000 learners from 17 courses offered on the edX platform by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology during the 2012-2013 academic year.We have developed a spike neural network to predict learning outcomes,and analyzed the correlation between learning behavior and outcomes,aiming to identify key learning behaviors that significantly impact these outcomes.Our goal is to monitor learning progress,provide targeted references for evaluating and improving learning effectiveness,and implement intervention measures promptly.Experimental results demonstrate that the prediction model based on online learning behavior using spiking neural network achieves an impressive accuracy of 99.80%.The learning behaviors that predominantly affect learning effectiveness are found to be students’academic performance and level of participation.

文摘In recent years,cyber threats have escalated across diverse sectors,with cybercrime syndicates increasingly exploiting system vulnerabilities.Traditional passive defense mechanisms have proven insufficient,particularly as Linux platforms—historically overlooked in favor of Windows—have emerged as frequent targets.According to Trend Micro,there has been a substantial increase in Linux-targeted malware,with ransomware attacks on Linux surpassing those on macOS.This alarming trend underscores the need for detection strategies specifically designed for Linux environments.To address this challenge,this study proposes a comprehensive malware detection framework tailored for Linux systems,integrating dynamic behavioral analysis with the semantic reasoning capabilities of large language models(LLMs).Malware samples are executed within sandbox environments to extract behavioral features such as system calls and command-line executions.These features are then systematically mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework,incorporating its defined data sources,data components,and Tactics,Techniques,and Procedures(TTPs).Two mapping constructs—Conceptual Definition Mapping and TTP Technical Keyword Mapping—are developed from official MITRE documentation.These resources are utilized to fine-tune an LLM,enabling it to semantically interpret complex behavioral patterns and infer associated attack techniques,including those employed by previously unknown malware variants.The resulting detection pipeline effectively bridges raw behavioral data with structured threat intelligence.Experimental evaluations confirm the efficacy of the proposed system,with the fine-tuned Gemma 2B model demonstrating significantly enhanced accuracy in associating behavioral features with ATT&CK-defined techniques.This study contributes a fully integrated Linux-specific detection framework,a novel approach for transforming unstructured behavioral data into actionable intelligence,improved interpretability of malicious behavior,and a scalable training process for future applications of LLMs in cybersecurity.

文摘Drosophila melanogaster has been a popular model organism in the study of sleep and circadian rhythm.The Drosophila activity monitoring(DAM)system is one of the many tools developed for investigating sleep behavior in fruit flies and has been acknowledged by researchers around the world for its simplicity and cost-effectiveness.Based on the simple activity data collected by the DAM system,a wide range of parameters can be generated for sleep and circadian studies.However,current programs that analyze DAM data cover a limited number of metrics and fail to provide individual data for the user to plot graphs and conduct analysis using other software.Therefore,we have developed SleepyFlyR,an R package that:(1)is simple and easy to use with a user-friendly user interface script;(2)provides a comprehensive analysis of sleep and activity parameters;(3)generates double-plotted graphs for sleep and activity patterns;(4)offers visualization of sleep and activity profiles across multiple days or within a single day;(5)calculates the changes of sleep and activity parameters between baseline and experiment;(6)stores both summary data and individual data in files with unique title.

文摘Brain imaging methods have effectively revealed drivers’underlying psychological and neural processes when they perform driving tasks and promote driving behavior research in a more scientific direction.With research no longer limited to indirect inferences about external behavior,some researchers combine behavior and driver brain activity to understand the human factors in driving essentially.However,most researchers in the field of driving behavior still have little understanding of how brain imaging methods are used.This paper aims to review and analyze the application of brain imaging methods in driving behavior research,including bibliometric analysis and an individual critical literature review.Regarding bibliometric analysis,this field’s knowledge structure and development trend are described macroscopically,using data such as annual distribution of publications,country/region statistics and partnerships,publication sources,literature co-citation analysis,and keyword co-occurrence analysis.In a review of the individual critical literature,eight research themes were identified that examined driving behavior using brain imaging methods:substance consumption,fatigue or sleep deprivation,workload,distraction,aging brains,brain impairment and other diseases,automated/semi-automated environments,emotions influence and risk-taking,and general driving process.In addition,the study reports on six brain imaging methods and their advantages and disadvantages,involving electroencephalography(EEG),functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI),functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS),magnetoencephalography(MEG),positron emission tomography(PET),and transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS).The contribution of this study is twofold.The first part relates to providing the researchers with a comprehensive understanding of the field’s knowledge structure and development trends.The second part goes beyond reviewing and analyzing previous studies,and the discussion section points out the directions and challenges for future research.
