文摘Amid the global wave of digital economy,China's medical artificial intelligence applications are rapidly advancing through technological innovation and policy support,while facing multifaceted evaluation and regulatory challenges.The dynamic algorithm evolution undermines the consistency of assessment criteria,multimodal systems lack unified evaluation metrics,and conflicts persist between data sharing and privacy protection.To address these issues,the China National Health Development Research Center has established a value assessment framework for artificial intelligence medical technologies,formulated the country's first technical guideline for clinical evaluation,and validated their practicality through scenario-based pilot studies.Furthermore,this paper proposes introducing a"regulatory sandbox"model to test technical compliance in controlled environments,thereby balancing innovation incentives with risk governance.

文摘This study examined the relationship between transformational leadership and employee bootleg innovation through the mediating role of creative self-efficacy and the moderating role of leader-member exchange(LMX).Data were collected from 279 employees and 56 matched supervisors within a large Chinese digital transformation group.A moderated mediation model analysis found that transformational leadership predicts higher employee bootleg innovation.Creative self-efficacy mediated the positive relationship between transformational leadership and employee bootleg.Additionally,leader-member exchange significantly moderated the relationship between transformational leadership and creative self-efficacy,for a further enhancement of bootleg innovation.Thesefindings underscore the importance of transformative leadership in fostering digital employee innovation.This study provides further evidence of the relevance of self-determination theory in explaining the leadership and employee innovation,relationship within the context of digital transformation.By implication,creative self-efficacy and leader-member exchange are modifiable factors by digital transformation entities seeking a competitive advantage.

文摘The global clustering of inventive talent shapes innovation capacity and drives economic growth.For China,this process is especially crucial in sustaining its development momentum.This paper draws on data from the EPO Worldwide Patent Statistical Database(PATSTAT)to extract global inventive talent mobility information and analyzes the spatial structural evolution of the global inventive talent flow network.The study finds that this network is undergoing a multi-polar transformation,characterized by the rising importance of a few central countries-such as the United States,Germany,and China-and the increasing marginalization of many peripheral countries.In response to this typical phenomenon,the paper constructs an endogenous migration model and conducts empirical testing using the Temporal Exponential Random Graph Model(TERGM).The results reveal several endogenous mechanisms driving global inventive talent flows,including reciprocity,path dependence,convergence effects,transitivity,and cyclic structures,all of which contribute to the network’s multi-polar trend.In addition,differences in regional industrial structures significantly influence talent mobility choices and are a decisive factor in the formation of poles within the multi-polar landscape.Based on these findings,it is suggested that efforts be made to foster two-way channels for talent exchange between China and other global innovation hubs,in order to enhance international collaboration and knowledge flow.We should aim to reduce the migration costs and institutional barriers faced by R&D personnel,thereby encouraging greater mobility of high-skilled talent.Furthermore,the government is advised to strategically leverage regional strengths in high-tech industries as a lever to capture competitive advantages in emerging technologies and products,ultimately strengthening the country’s position in the global innovation landscape.

文摘Damming is a major geomorphological event characterized by catastrophic consequences and profound impacts on fluvial landscape evolution.Extensive Quaternary detrital deposits(DD)have been discovered in the Daju Basin.Some research suggests that these deposits are potentially associated with Great Flood events in the mainstream region.However,considering the multiplicity and complexity of the deposition,they may also result from catastrophic debris flows in local gullies.Consequently,we conducted a comprehensive investigation of detrital deposits and collected 64 provenance samples.The sediment provenance was analyzed by grain size distribution and elemental composition characterization.The results are as follows:(1)The detrital deposits in the basin are predominantly composed of sand and gravel,with some clay.(2)The results of the elemental ratios and multivariate statistical analysis confirmed the similarity in material composition between the detrital deposits in the basin and those from the Muduoluo Gully.(3)The discovery of palaeolandslides and lacustrine deposits in the study area indicates the existence of ancient dammed lakes and historical river damming events.The detrital deposits likely represent fan delta sediments formed by water-land interactions caused by damming events.Our study highlights new insights into discriminating the provenances of detrital deposits in localized regions,providing a new perspective for investigating geological hazards in the Jinsha River Basin.

文摘Financial market liquidity is a popular research topic.Investor-driven research uses the turnover rate to measure liquidity and generally finds that the higher the stock turnover rate,the lower the returns.However,the traditional financial liquidity theory has been impacted by new machine-driven quantitative trading models.To explore high machine-driven liquidity and the impact of high turnover rates on returns,this study establishes a dual-market quantitative trading system,introduces a variational modal decomposition(VMD)-bidirectional gated recurrent unit(BiGRU)model for data prediction,and uses the back-end Hong Kong foreign exchange market to develop a quantitative trading strategy using the same rotating funds in the U.S.and Chinese stock markets.The experimental results show that given a principal amount of 210,000.00 CNY,the final predicted net return is 226,538.30 CNY,a net return of 107.86%,which is 40.6%higher than the net return of a single Chinese market.We conclude that,under machine-driven trading,increasing liquidity and turnover increase returns.This study provides a new perspective on liquidity theory that is useful for future financial market research and quantitative trading practices.

文摘This study systematically investigates the concentration of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids and the distribution of geothermal radon mineral water in Shandong Province,with the aim of elucidating formation mechanisms and influencing factors.The findings indicate that the overall abundance of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids across the region is relatively low.Geothermal radon mineral water is primarily located within banded thermal reservoirs associated with bedrock fracture structures in the Ludong and Luxi uplift geothermal zones.The study reveals that the ionic composition,radioactivity intensity,and extent of water-rock interactions exert only effects in the concentration of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids.The formation of geothermal radon mineral water is predominantly governed by“fracture-controlled”mechanisms,with thermal reservoir lithology,fracture tectonics,and seismic activity serving as key determinants.Additionally,the enrichment of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids is influenced by factors such as geothermal fluid temperature,depth of occurrence,cap rock thickness,and alteration processes.The genetic mechanisms of geothermal radon mineral water can be categorized into two types:„native‟and„composite‟.These findings provide critical insights into the exploration and development of geothermal radon mineral water resources in Shandong and similar regions.
