文摘Intervention strategies to control non-point source nitrogen(N)and phosphorus(P)pollution in agriculture are expensive and there is a trade-off between engineering cost and treatment effectiveness.Implementing strategies often result in unsatisfactory outcomes and massive engineering costs when managing diffusive pollution in agricultural catchments.To address this issue,this paper proposes a robust,handy,catchment N&P decision support system(CNPDSS),an Android-based smartphone system integrated with a web-based geographic information system(GIS).The CNPDSS aims to provide artificial intelligence-driven decisions that minimize N&P loadings and engineering costs for mitigating pollution in agricultural catchments.It consists of four components:a general user interface(GUI),GIS,N&P pollution modeling(NPPM),and a DSS.The CNPDSS simplifies the GUI and integrates GIS modules to create a user-friendly interface,enabling non-professional users to operate the system easily through intuitive actions.The NPPM uses straightforward empirical models to predict N&P loadings,enhancing efficiency by avoiding excessive parameters.Taking into account the N&P movement pathway in the catchment,the DSS incorporates three control measures:source reduction in farmland(before migration stage),process retention by ecological ditch(midway transport stage),and down-end purification by constructed wetland(waterbody discharge stage),to formulate a comprehensive ternary controlling strategy.To optimize the cost-effectiveness of any proposed N&P control strategies for sub-catchments,a differential evolution algorithm(DEA)is employed in CNPDSS to carry out a dual-objective decision-making optimization computation.In this study,the CNPDSS is applied to a case study in an agricultural catchment in Central China to develop the most cost-effective ternary N&P control strategies that ensure the catchment water quality within Criterion Ⅲ of the Chinese Surface Water Quality Standard GB3838-2002 is met(total N concentration≤1.0 mg L^(-1)and total P concentration≤0.2 mg L^(-1)).Our results demonstrate that the CNPDSS is feasible and also possesses an adaptive design and flexible architecture to enable its generalization and extension to support strong hands-on applications in other catchments.

文摘Objective To develop a clinical decision and prescription generation system(CDPGS)specifically for diarrhea in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),utilizing a specialized large language model(LLM),Qwen-TCM-Dia,to standardize diagnostic processes and prescription generation.Methods Two primary datasets were constructed:an evaluation benchmark and a fine-tuning dataset consisting of fundamental diarrhea knowledge,medical records,and chain-ofthought(CoT)reasoning datasets.After an initial evaluation of 16 open-source LLMs across inference time,accuracy,and output quality,Qwen2.5 was selected as the base model due to its superior overall performance.We then employed a two-stage low-rank adaptation(LoRA)fine-tuning strategy,integrating continued pre-training on domain-specific knowledge with instruction fine-tuning using CoT-enriched medical records.This approach was designed to embed the clinical logic(symptoms→pathogenesis→therapeutic principles→prescriptions)into the model’s reasoning capabilities.The resulting fine-tuned model,specialized for TCM diarrhea,was designated as Qwen-TCM-Dia.Model performance was evaluated for disease diagnosis and syndrome type differentiation using accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score.Furthermore,the quality of the generated prescriptions was compared with that of established open-source TCM LLMs.Results Qwen-TCM-Dia achieved peak performance compared to both the base Qwen2.5 model and five other open-source TCM LLMs.It achieved 97.05%accuracy and 91.48%F1-score in disease diagnosis,and 74.54%accuracy and 74.21%F1-score in syndrome type differentiation.Compared with existing open-source TCM LLMs(BianCang,HuangDi,LingDan,TCMLLM-PR,and ZhongJing),Qwen-TCM-Dia exhibited higher fidelity in reconstructing the“symptoms→pathogenesis→therapeutic principles→prescriptions”logic chain.It provided complete prescriptions,whereas other models often omitted dosages or generated mismatched prescriptions.Conclusion By integrating continued pre-training,CoT reasoning,and a two-stage fine-tuning strategy,this study establishes a CDPGS for diarrhea in TCM.The results demonstrate the synergistic effect of strengthening domain representation through pre-training and activating logical reasoning via CoT.This research not only provides critical technical support for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of diarrhea but also offers a scalable paradigm for the digital inheritance of expert TCM experience and the intelligent transformation of TCM.

文摘Transforming urban spatial structures to promote green and low-carbon development is an effective strategy.Although prior studies have examined the impact of urban polycentricity on carbon emissions and economic development,research on its role in the synergistic relationship between these factors regarding carbon emission efficiency is limited.Furthermore,existing literature often overlooks nonlinear effects and interactions with other urban variables.This paper analyzed data from 295 Chinese cities in 2020,calculating urban population polycentricity,population dispersion indices,and carbon emission efficiency.Utilizing local spatial autocorrelation tools,we reveal interactions among urban population polycentricity,dispersion,carbon emissions,and carbon emission efficiency.We then employ a gradient boosting decision tree model(GBDT)to explore nonlinear and synergistic effects of polycentric urbanization.Key findings include:1)polycentric urbanization in Chinese cities exhibits significant spatial differentiation characteristics.The Polycentricity index is relatively high in economically developed eastern coastal regions with an overall low level,carbon emissions are concentrated in industrialized north-central cities and some Yangtze River Delta hubs,and carbon emission efficiency is the highest in the Yangtze River Delta while relatively low in Northeast China;there are significant spatially heterogeneous interaction characteristics among population polycentricity,population dispersion,carbon emissions,and carbon emission efficiency.2)Urban population polycentricity contributes 9.42%to total carbon emissions and 6.24%to carbon emission efficiency.3)The polycentricity index has a nonlinear impact on carbon emissions and carbon emission efficiency:no significant effect when below 0.50 or above 0.55,increased carbon emissions in 0.50-0.53,and reduced carbon emissions with improved efficiency in 0.53-0.55.4)The polycentricity index has an interaction effect with other variables;specifically,when the polycentricity index is between 0.53 and 0.55,its interaction with urban gross domestic product(GDP),urban population,urban built-up area,green coverage rate in built-up areas,urban technological expenditure,and the proportion of the output value of the secondary industry will reduce carbon emissions and improve carbon emission efficiency.These findings enhance the understanding of urban spatial structures and carbon emissions,providing valuable insights for policymakers in developing green and low-carbon strategies.
文摘Further investigation is warranted into the collaborative function of carbon capture and electrolysis-to-gas conversion technologies within integrated electro-gas energy systems,as well as optimized scheduling that addresses the variability of wind and solar energy,to promote multi-energy complementarity and energy decarbonization while enhancing the capacity to absorb new energy.This work presents an optimized scheduling model for electro-gas integrated energy systems that include hydrogen storage,utilizing information gap decision theory(IGDT).A model is constructed that integrates the synergistic functions of carbon capture and storage(CCS),power-to-gas(P2G),and gas turbine units through electrical coupling.A carbon ladder trading mechanism is implemented to mitigate carbon emissions inside the system.A day-ahead optimization scheduling model is subsequently built to maximize system operational profit and ensure hydrogen storage safety,while considering economic viability,low-carbon performance,and safety.Secondly,the trinitrotoluene(TNT)equivalent approach and the half-lethal range were employed to quantify the safety concerns associated with hydrogen storage tanks,offering the model optimization guidance and conservative management.Ultimately,the CCS-P2G integrated operation accounted for the unpredictability in wind and solar energy production through the application of information gap decision theory.The model was solved using the GUROBI solver.The findings indicate that the proposed approach diminishes system carbon emissions by 66%,attains complete integration of wind and solar energy,and eliminates hazardous working time for hydrogen storage tanks,reducing it from 10 h to zero.It ensures system safety while guaranteeing profits of at least 90%of the anticipated value,accounting for changes in wind and solar output within±14%.This confirms the model’s efficacy in improving renewable energy integration rates,facilitating low-carbon,cost-effective,and secure system operation,while mitigating the unpredictability of renewable energy production.

文摘Electrical parking lots(EPLs)play a vital role in the current energy system to achieve the decarbonization goal.This paper proposes a novel structure for integrating EPLs into a multi-carrier energy system(MCES)using a Stackelberg game theory approach.The bi-level optimization is used to model the Stackelberg game.Within this bi-level optimization model,the MCES operator minimizes the MCES cost by participating in the upstream energy market at the upper level,and the EPL operators maximize their profits by participating in the local energy market between the MCES operator and themselves at the lower level.At the upper level,the MCES operator faces uncertainties in the wind and PV systems.The bi-level multi-objective information gap decision theory(MO-IGDT)is employed to address uncertainties at the upper level of the Stackelberg game problem,resulting in a nested bi-level optimization model.The nested bi-level optimization problem is converted into a mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)optimization problem using Karush–Kuhn–Tucker(KKT)conditions.The main research assumptions pertain to EPLs’privacy and the KKT-based approach.The results demonstrate that increasing the incentive/penalty price for self-sufficiency programs from 0.0$/%to 0.2$/%,with a 50%self-sufficiency target,can reduce MCES operation costs by 10.19%.

文摘Volunteer teams provide valuable support after large-scale disasters.However,excessive volunteer participation poses challenges for formal operations.Therefore,an appropriate decision-making method is required to quickly determine the number of volunteers required after a disaster.This study proposes a data-driven decision-making(D^(3)M)method for typhoon disaster volunteerism that can effectively predict the number of volunteers required.Disaster data from actual cases were gathered,analyzed,and preprocessed to prepare the model.Feature selection,D^(3)M model training and optimization,and model validation were performed to fine-tune the volunteer participant predictions.Using data from an actual typhoon in the Philippines,the rationality and efficacy of the method were verified through a comparative analysis of the experimental results.The proposed method learns from disaster-event data to quickly predict the number of volunteers needed,such that it not only reasonably allocates volunteers to assist professional teams in rescue but also avoids secondary problems caused by an overwhelming response.
文摘Across four studies,we explore the impact of solitude on consumers’reliance on feelings versus reasons in decision making,along with the underlying mechanism and boundary conditions.The results indicate that solitude individuals(vs.non-solitude)would prefer feeling-based strategy in decision-making,resulting in a higher intention of choosing the affectively superior option over the cognitively superior option(Study 1).Self-focus plays the underlying mechanism in the solitude effect(Study 2).Moreover,we also examine two boundary conditions:motivation(Study 3)and temporal orientation(Study 4),which indicates that involuntary motivation and future orientation can mitigate the solitude effect on affective processing.These findings provide insights into consumers’judgments of product attributes and selection of decision-making strategies according to their situations.

文摘Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)represents a paradigmatic approach to personalized medicine,developed through the systematic accumulation and refinement of clinical empirical data over more than 2000 years,and now encompasses large-scale electronic medical records(EMR)and experimental molecular data.Artificial intelligence(AI)has demonstrated its utility in medicine through the development of various expert systems(e.g.,MYCIN)since the 1970s.With the emergence of deep learning and large language models(LLMs),AI’s potential in medicine shows considerable promise.Consequently,the integration of AI and TCM from both clinical and scientific perspectives presents a fundamental and promising research direction.This survey provides an insightful overview of TCM AI research,summarizing related research tasks from three perspectives:systems-level biological mechanism elucidation,real-world clinical evidence inference,and personalized clinical decision support.The review highlights representative AI methodologies alongside their applications in both TCM scientific inquiry and clinical practice.To critically assess the current state of the field,this work identifies major challenges and opportunities that constrain the development of robust research capabilities—particularly in the mechanistic understanding of TCM syndromes and herbal formulations,novel drug discovery,and the delivery of high-quality,patient-centered clinical care.The findings underscore that future advancements in AI-driven TCM research will rely on the development of high-quality,large-scale data repositories;the construction of comprehensive and domain-specific knowledge graphs(KGs);deeper insights into the biological mechanisms underpinning clinical efficacy;rigorous causal inference frameworks;and intelligent,personalized decision support systems.

文摘As Artificial Intelligence(AI)is moving fast from Large Language Models(LLMs)to AI Agents and Agentic Intelligence,the need to incorporate new AI into Decision Intelligence(DI)is becoming more and more urgent for both practical and theoretic reasons:both decision and process complexities would be significantly increased due to the use of advanced AI tools and agents,and both traditional and recent thinking must be rethought and reconstructed accordingly.Our perspective would like to address this important issue based on some historical milestone developments in Computer-Aided Software Engineering(CASE)and recent efforts in digital theatrical technology[1].
文摘Accurate prediction ofmonthly oil and gas production is essential for oil enterprises tomake reasonable production plans,avoid blind investment and realize sustainable development.Traditional oil well production trend prediction methods are based on years of oil field production experience and expertise,and the application conditions are very demanding.With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology,big data analysis methods are gradually applied in various sub-fields of the oil and gas reservoir development.Based on the data-driven artificial intelligence algorithmGradient BoostingDecision Tree(GBDT),this paper predicts the initial single-layer production by considering geological data,fluid PVT data and well data.The results show that the GBDT algorithm prediction model has great accuracy,significantly improving efficiency and strong universal applicability.The GBDTmethod trained in this paper can predict production,which is helpful for well site optimization,perforation layer optimization and engineering parameter optimization and has guiding significance for oilfield development.
