The author has improved Morris' crossmapping technique and developed a technique for directly describing,visualizing and analyzing co-occurrence relations among three or more entities in collections of journal articles.Findings: The visualization tools and the knowledge discovery method can efficiently reveal the multiple co-occurrence relations among three entities in collections of journal papers. It can reveal more and in-depth information than analyzing co-occurrence relations between two entities. Therefore,this method can be used for mapping knowledge domain that is manifested in association with the entities from multi-dimensional perspectives and in an all-round way.Research limitations: The technique could only be used to analyze co-occurrence relations of less than three entities at present.Practical implications: This research has expanded the study scope of co-occurrence analysis.The research result has provided a theoretical support for co-occurrence analysis.Originality/value: There has not been a systematic study on co-occurrence relations among multiple entities in collections of journal articles. This research defines multiple co-occurrence and the research scope,develops the visualization analysis tool and designs the analysis model of the knowledge discovery method.展开更多

Here, we assessed foraging guilds, habitat type and disturbances as drivers of bird species co-occurrence in Ghana's Central Region over six months. Birds were sampled in 120 points across six different habitat types (farmland, forest reserve, urban area, coastal savannah, wetland, and mangrove), using the point-centred count technique. In total, 4060 individuals belonging to 216 species were recorded across all six habitat types. We found that co-occurring species were more similar in their foraging behaviour and habitat association. About 60% of the birds were found to co-occur randomly, 15% co-occurred negatively, and 25% co-occurred positively. Carnivores like the Black Heron (Egretta ardesiaca) and Spur-winged Lapwing (Vanellus spinosus) randomly co-occurred with other guild groups and were dominant in the mangroves and wetlands. Frugivores from forest reserves had only a 25% chance of randomly co-occurring with other birds and about a 60% chance of positively co-occurring with other birds. Our findings suggest that foraging guilds and habitat type are major factors driving bird co-occurrence and community assemblages in this West African suburban region.展开更多

文摘Understanding the fundamental drivers of large-scale species co-occurrence is a critical issue in ecology and conservation research. Here, we assessed foraging guilds, habitat type and disturbances as drivers of bird species co-occurrence in Ghana's Central Region over six months.

In total, 4060 individuals belonging to 216 species were recorded across all six habitat types. We found that co-occurring species were more similar in their foraging behaviour and habitat association. About 60% of the birds were found to co-occur randomly, 15% co-occurred negatively, and 25% co-occurred positively. Carnivores like the Black Heron (Egretta ardesiaca) and Spur-winged Lapwing (Vanellus spinosus) randomly co-occurred with other guild groups and were dominant in the mangroves and wetlands. Frugivores from forest reserves had only a 25% chance of randomly co-occurring with other birds and about a 60% chance of positively co-occurring with other birds. Our findings suggest that foraging guilds and habitat type are major factors driving bird co-occurrence and community assemblages in this West African suburban region.

文摘Purpose:This paper presents a new semi-automatic methodology for identifying inter-actor relationships by discerning viewpoints in non-social,political textual corpora.Although previous research has successfully discerned viewpoints,biases,and affiliations based on textual features,the task of relationship analysis in the absence of interactional data remains unaddressed.Design/methodology/approach:We introduce a new paradigm for topic representation as a dynamic,continuous,multi-viewpoint spectrum based on the representation of viewpoints as vectors that capture common topical themes.As a proof of concept,we applied this paradigm to scrutinize the inter-state relationships reflected in the speeches of the UN General Assembly Debate Corpus(UNGDC).Findings:The proposed paradigm effectively identifies discursive trends in UNGDC.Our analysis reveals common attitudes towards the topic and their prominence among different groups of actors and facilitates the analysis of relationships between actors through a quantitative representation of viewpoint similarity.The method also successfully captured temporal shifts in viewpoints and overall discourse trends,correlating with major geopolitical events.Research limitations:One limitation of this study is the method’s sensitivity to data sparsity,which can skew viewpoint representations in cases of low topic involvement.Practical implications:The proposed paradigm can be utilized by scholars in political science and other domains as a tool for semi-automated unsupervised textual analysis of various non-social textual sources,enabling the discovery of latent relationships between actors and the modeling of viewpoints in complex topics.Originality/value:This study presents a novel framework for unsupervised semi-automatic textual analysis of relationships in non-social corpora through a new approach for the representation of viewpoints as thematic vectors.

文摘Metastable β titanium alloy is an ideal material for lightweight and high strength due to its excellent comprehensive mechanical properties.However,overcoming the trade-off relation between strength and ductility remains a significant challenge.In this study,the mechanical properties of Ti-38644 alloy were optimized by introducing a heterogeneous bi-grain bi-lamella(BG-BL)structure through a well-designed combination of rolling,drawing and heat treatment.The results demonstrate that the present BG-BL Ti-38644 alloy shows a tensile strength of~1500 MPa and a total elongation of 18%.In particular,the high strength-elongation combination of the BG-BL Ti-38644 alloy breakthroughs the trade-off relation in all the titanium alloys available.The recrystallized grains with low dislocation enhance the ductility of the Ti-38644 alloy,while the highly distorted elongated grains mainly contribute to the high strength.The present study provides a new principle for designing Ti alloys with superior strength and ductility.

文摘Relation extraction plays a crucial role in numerous downstream tasks.Dialogue relation extraction focuses on identifying relations between two arguments within a given dialogue.To tackle the problem of low information density in dialogues,methods based on trigger enhancement have been proposed,yielding positive results.However,trigger enhancement faces challenges,which cause suboptimal model performance.First,the proportion of annotated triggers is low in DialogRE.Second,feature representations of triggers and arguments often contain conflicting information.In this paper,we propose a novel Multi-Feature Filtering and Fusion trigger enhancement approach to overcome these limitations.We first obtain representations of arguments,and triggers that contain rich semantic information through attention and gate methods.Then,we design a feature filtering mechanism that eliminates conflicting features in the encoding of trigger prototype representations and their corresponding argument pairs.Additionally,we utilize large language models to create prompts based on Chain-of-Thought and In-context Learning for automated trigger extraction.Experiments show that our model increases the average F1 score by 1.3%in the dialogue relation extraction task.Ablation and case studies confirm the effectiveness of our model.Furthermore,the feature filtering method effectively integrates with other trigger enhancement models,enhancing overall performance and demonstrating its ability to resolve feature conflicts.
文摘In contemporary society,language transcends its function as a mere tool for communication.It is intrinsically linked to a people’s culture,values,and worldview.This observation is particularly salient in our globalized world,where linguistic considerations have assumed strategic importance.Recognizing this potential,numerous states are seeking to bolster their international relations by prioritizing the teaching of their languages.It is within this context that we focus our attention on the teaching of Chinese in Congo-Brazzaville.Our objective is to investigate the significance of this language in consolidating bilateral relations between China and Congo.To achieve this,we analyze the current state of Chinese language instruction within the Congolese educational system,emphasize the implications of its dissemination,and propose potential avenues for improvement.Our approach is qualitative,drawing upon observations,interviews,and a review of existing literature.We aim to understand how the teaching of Chinese can contribute to the economic,cultural,and social development of Congo,while simultaneously strengthening ties with China.
