文摘Lactate,as a metabolite,plays a significant role in a number of fields,including medical diagnostics,exercise physiology and food science.Traditional methods for lactate measurement often involve expensive and cumbersome instrumentation.This study developed a portable and low-cost lactate measurement system,including independently detectable hardware circuits and user-friendly embedded software,computer,and smartphone applications.The experiment verified that the relative error of the detection current in the device circuit was less than 1%.The electrochemical performance was measured by comparing the[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3−)/[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4−)solution with the desktop electrochemical workstation CHI660E,and a nearly consistent chronoamperometry(CA)curve was obtained.Two modified lactate sensors were used for CA testing of lactate.Within the concentration range of 0.1 mmol·L^(−1)to 20 mmol·L^(−1),there was a good linear relationship between lactate concentration and steady-state current,with a correlation coefficient(R2)greater than 0.99 and good repeatability,demonstrating the reliability of the developed device.The lactate measurement system developed in this study not only provides excellent detection performance and reliability,but also achieves portability and low cost,providing a new solution for lactate measurement.

文摘In shale gas reservoir stimulation,proppants are essential for sustaining fracture conductivity.However,increasing closing stress causes proppants to embed into the rock matrix,leading to a progressive decline in fracture permeability and conductivity.Furthermore,rock creep contributes to long-term reductions in fracture performance.To elucidate the combined effects of proppant embedding and rock creep on sustained conductivity,this study conducted controlled experiments examining conductivity decay in propped fractures under varying closing stresses,explicitly accounting for both mechanisms.An embedded discrete fracture model was developed to simulate reservoir production under different conductivity decay scenarios,while evaluating the influence of proppant parameters on fracture performance.The results demonstrate that fracture conductivity diminishes rapidly with increasing stress,yet at 50 MPa,the decline becomes less pronounced.Simulated production profiles show strong agreement with actual gas well data,confirming the model’s accuracy and predictive capability.These findings suggest that employing a high proppant concentration with smaller particle size(5 kg/m^(2),70/140 mesh)is effective for maintaining long-term fracture conductivity and enhancing shale gas recovery.This study provides a rigorous framework for optimizing proppant selection and designing stimulation strategies that maximize reservoir performance over time.

文摘Tibetan medical named entity recognition(Tibetan MNER)involves extracting specific types of medical entities from unstructured Tibetan medical texts.Tibetan MNER provide important data support for the work related to Tibetan medicine.However,existing Tibetan MNER methods often struggle to comprehensively capture multi-level semantic information,failing to sufficiently extract multi-granularity features and effectively filter out irrelevant information,which ultimately impacts the accuracy of entity recognition.This paper proposes an improved embedding representation method called syllable-word-sentence embedding.By leveraging features at different granularities and using un-scaled dot-product attention to focus on key features for feature fusion,the syllable-word-sentence embedding is integrated into the transformer,enhancing the specificity and diversity of feature representations.The model leverages multi-level and multi-granularity semantic information,thereby improving the performance of Tibetan MNER.We evaluate our proposed model on datasets from various domains.The results indicate that the model effectively identified three types of entities in the Tibetan news dataset we constructed,achieving an F1 score of 93.59%,which represents an improvement of 1.24%compared to the vanilla FLAT.Additionally,results from the Tibetan medical dataset we developed show that it is effective in identifying five kinds of medical entities,with an F1 score of 71.39%,which is a 1.34%improvement over the vanilla FLAT.

文摘Named Entity Recognition(NER)is vital in natural language processing for the analysis of news texts,as it accurately identifies entities such as locations,persons,and organizations,which is crucial for applications like news summarization and event tracking.However,NER in the news domain faces challenges due to insufficient annotated data,complex entity structures,and strong context dependencies.To address these issues,we propose a new Chinesenamed entity recognition method that integrates transfer learning with word embeddings.Our approach leverages the ERNIE pre-trained model for transfer learning and obtaining general language representations and incorporates the Soft-lexicon word embedding technique to handle varied entity structures.This dual-strategy enhances the model’s understanding of context and boosts its ability to process complex texts.Experimental results show that our method achieves an F1 score of 94.72% on a news dataset,surpassing baseline methods by 3%–4%,thereby confirming its effectiveness for Chinese-named entity recognition in the news domain.
文摘The increasing fluency of advanced language models,such as GPT-3.5,GPT-4,and the recently introduced DeepSeek,challenges the ability to distinguish between human-authored and AI-generated academic writing.This situation is raising significant concerns regarding the integrity and authenticity of academic work.In light of the above,the current research evaluates the effectiveness of Bidirectional Long Short-TermMemory(BiLSTM)networks enhanced with pre-trained GloVe(Global Vectors for Word Representation)embeddings to detect AIgenerated scientific Abstracts drawn from the AI-GA(Artificial Intelligence Generated Abstracts)dataset.Two core BiLSTM variants were assessed:a single-layer approach and a dual-layer design,each tested under static or adaptive embeddings.The single-layer model achieved nearly 97%accuracy with trainable GloVe,occasionally surpassing the deeper model.Despite these gains,neither configuration fully matched the 98.7%benchmark set by an earlier LSTMWord2Vec pipeline.Some runs were over-fitted when embeddings were fine-tuned,whereas static embeddings offered a slightly lower yet stable accuracy of around 96%.This lingering gap reinforces a key ethical and procedural concern:relying solely on automated tools,such as Turnitin’s AI-detection features,to penalize individuals’risks and unjust outcomes.Misclassifications,whether legitimate work is misread as AI-generated or engineered text,evade detection,demonstrating that these classifiers should not stand as the sole arbiters of authenticity.Amore comprehensive approach is warranted,one which weaves model outputs into a systematic process supported by expert judgment and institutional guidelines designed to protect originality.

文摘Multimodal sentiment analysis aims to understand emotions from text,speech,and video data.However,current methods often overlook the dominant role of text and suffer from feature loss during integration.Given the varying importance of each modality across different contexts,a central and pressing challenge in multimodal sentiment analysis lies in maximizing the use of rich intra-modal features while minimizing information loss during the fusion process.In response to these critical limitations,we propose a novel framework that integrates spatial position encoding and fusion embedding modules to address these issues.In our model,text is treated as the core modality,while speech and video features are selectively incorporated through a unique position-aware fusion process.The spatial position encoding strategy preserves the internal structural information of speech and visual modalities,enabling the model to capture localized intra-modal dependencies that are often overlooked.This design enhances the richness and discriminative power of the fused representation,enabling more accurate and context-aware sentiment prediction.Finally,we conduct comprehensive evaluations on two widely recognized standard datasets in the field—CMU-MOSI and CMU-MOSEI to validate the performance of the proposed model.The experimental results demonstrate that our model exhibits good performance and effectiveness for sentiment analysis tasks.

文摘In this study,a new linear friction welding(LFW)process,embedded LFW process,was put forward,which was mainly applied to combination manufacturing of long or overlong loadcarrying titanium alloy structural components in aircraft.The interfacial plastic flow behavior and bonding mechanism of this process were investigated by a developed coupling EulerianLagrangian numerical model using software ABAQUS and a novel thermo-physical simulation method with designed embedded hot compression specimen.In addition,the formation mechanism and control method of welding defects caused by uneven plastic flow were discussed.The results reveal that the plastic flow along oscillating direction of this process is even and sufficient.In the direction perpendicular to oscillation,thermo-plastic metals mainly flow downward along welding interface under coupling of shear stress and interfacial pressure,resulting in the interfacial plastic zone shown as an inverted“V”shape.The upward plastic flow in this direction is relatively weak,and only a small amount of flash is extruded from top of joint.Moreover,the wedge block and welding components at top of joint are always in un-steady friction stage,leading to nonuniform temperature field distribution and un-welded defects.According to the results of numerical simulation,high oscillating frequency combined with low pressure and small amplitude is considered as appropriate parameter selection scheme to improve the upward interfacial plastic flow at top of joint and suppress the un-welded defects.The results of thermo-physical simulation illustrate that continuous dynamic recrystallization(CDRX)induces the bonding of interface,accompanying by intense dislocation movement and creation of many low-angle grain boundaries.In the interfacial bonding area,grain orientation is random with relatively low texture density(5.0 mud)owing to CDRX.

文摘Network virtualization is the development trend and inevitable requirement of hybrid wireless sensor networks(HWSNs).Low mapping efficiency and service interruption caused by mobility seriously affect the reliability of sensing tasks and ultimately affect the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.In response to these problems,this paper proposes an efficient virtual network embedding algorithm with a reliable service guarantee.Based on the topological attributes of nodes,a method for evaluating the physical network resource importance degree is proposed,and the nodes with rich resources are selected to improve embedding efficiency.Then,a method for evaluating the physical network reliability degree is proposed to predict the probability of mobile sensors providing uninterrupted services.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the acceptance rate of virtual sensor networks(VSN)embedding requests and the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.

文摘Edge defects significantly impact the forming quality of Mg/Al composite plates during the rolling process.This study aims to develop an effective rolling technique to suppress these defects.First,an enhanced Lemaitre damage model with a generalized stress state damage prediction mechanism was used to evaluate the key mechanical factors contributing to defect formation.Based on this evaluation,an embedded composite rolling technique was proposed.Subsequently,comparative validation was conducted at 350℃ with a 50% reduction ratio.Results showed that the plates rolled using the embedded composite rolling technique had smooth surfaces and edges,with no macroscopic cracks observed.Numerical simulation indicated that,compared to conventional processes,the proposed technique reduced the maximum edge stress triaxiality of the plates from-0.02 to-1.56,significantly enhancing the triaxial compressive stress effect at the edges,which suppressed void nucleation and growth,leading to a 96%reduction in damage values.Mechanical property evaluations demonstrated that,compared to the conventional rolling process,the proposed technique improved edge bonding strength and tensile strength by approximately 67.7%and 118%,respectively.Further microstructural characterization revealed that the proposed technique,influenced by the restriction of deformation along the transverse direction(TD),weakened the plastic flow in the TD and enhanced plastic flow along the rolling direction(RD),resulting in higher grain boundary density and stronger basal texture.This,in turn,improved the toughness and transverse homogeneity of the plates.In summary,the embedded composite rolling technique provides crucial technical guidance for the preparation of Mg-based composite plates.
