Moreover,it allows regulatory agencies to understand where risk is introduced into the supply chain,and offers a major disincentive for upstream agricultural businesses engaging in economically motivated adulteration. This paper focuses on the aquatic supply chain in China,and seeks to understand the adoption of traceability both through an analytical model,and empirical analysis based on data collected through an extensive (largest ever) field survey of Chinese aquatic wholesale markets. The field survey includes 76 managers and 753 vendors,covering all aquatic wholesale markets in Zhejiang and Hunan provinces. The analytical and empirical results suggest that the adoption of traceability among wholesale market vendors is significantly associated with inspection intensity,their individual history of food safety problems,and their risk awareness. The effect of inspection intensity on traceability adoption is stronger in markets which are privately owned than in markets with state/collective ownership. The analysis offers insights into the current state of traceability in China. More importantly,it suggests several hypothesized factors that might affect the adoption of traceability and could be leveraged by regulatory organizations to improve it.展开更多

The objective of this research is to analyze the capacity of the MLP (multilayer perceptron neural network) versus SOM (self-organizing map neural network) for short-term load forecasting. The MLP is one of the most commonly used networks. It can be used for classification problems, model construction, series forecasting and discrete control. On the other hand, the SOM is a type of artificial neural network that is trained using unsupervised data to produce a low-dimensional, discretized representation of an input space of training samples in a cell map. Historical data of real global load demand were used for the research. Both neural models provide good prediction results, but the results obtained with the SOM maps are markedly better Also the main advantage of SOM maps is that they reach good results as a network unsupervised. It is much easier to train and interpret the results.展开更多

In these areas, electric power has been generated using strong tidal currents, the speed of which is more than 3 m/s during spring tides. The region also provides a shortcut for navigation. These tidal conditions are therefore sometimes useful, but may also cause terrible accidents or severe economic damage, in the absence of accurate information regarding ocean conditions. In April 2014, the passenger ferry MV Sewol capsized in the Maenggol Channel, with 295 passengers killed and 9 still missing. While this was unquestionably a man-made disaster, strong currents were one of the contributing causes. It was also difficult to conduct scuba diving rescue operations given strong current speeds,and accurate prediction of the time when the tide would turn was thus critically needed. In this research, we used the high-resolution coastal circulation forecasting system of KOOS(Korea Operational Oceanographic System) for analysis and simulation of strong tidal currents in such areas with many small islands, using measurements and modeling from this research area. For accurate prediction of tidal currents, small grid size-modeling was needed,and in this study, we identified a suitable grid size that offers efficiency as well as accuracy.展开更多

The uniformly convergent algorithm with arbitrarily prescribed error can be efficiently applied to compute busy periods, busy cycles, waiting times, sojourn times, and relevant indices of various generic queueing systems and queueing networks. This paper also conducts a numerical experiment to implement the proposed algorithm.
文摘Cyclone Idai,which hit Mozambique in March 2019,was one of the worst climate-related natural disasters on record in the Southern Hemisphere causing massive destruction of housing and disruption to vital infrastructure including the electrical grid,communications and water supply.Almost two million people were affected with over 600 deaths,hundreds of thousands of people displaced accompanied by rapid spread of cholera.We describe emergency measures taken by the Government of Mozambique,in collaboration with multilateral partners,to establish a real-time disease surveillance system,implement interventions recommended by a Water,Sanitation and Hygiene(WASH)taskforce and rapidly scale up a massive community vaccination program to control a cholera epidemic.

文摘Nanoparticle corona phase(CP)design offers a unique approach toward molecular recognition(MR)for sensing applications.Single-walled carbon nanotube(SWCNT)CPs can additionally transduce MR through its band-gap photoluminescence(PL).While DNA oligonucleotides have been used as SWCNT CPs,no generalized scheme exists for MR prediction de novo due to their sequence-dependent three-dimensional complexity.This work generated the largest DNA-SWCNT PL response library of 1408 elements and leveraged machine learning(ML)techniques to understand MR and DNA sequence dependence through local(LFs)and high-level features(HLFs).Out-of-sample analysis of our ML model showed significant correlations between model predictions and actual sensor responses for 6 out of 8 experimental conditions.Different HLF combinations were found to be uniquely correlated with different analytes.Furthermore,models utilizing both LFs and HLFs show improvement over that with HLFs alone,demonstrating that DNA-SWCNT CP engineering is more complex than simply specifying molecular properties.

文摘Nonlinear fractional differential equations provide suitable models to describe real-world phenomena and many fractional derivatives are varying with time and space.The present study considers the advanced and broad spectrum of the nonlinear(NL)variable-order fractional differential equation(VO-FDE)in sense of VO Caputo fractional derivative(CFD)to describe the physical models.The VO-FDE transforms into an ordinary differential equation(ODE)and then solving by the modified(G/G)-expansion method.For ac-curacy,the space-time VO fractional Korteweg-de Vries(KdV)equation is solved by the proposed method and obtained some new types of periodic wave,singular,and Kink exact solutions.The newly obtained solutions confirmed that the proposed method is well-ordered and capable implement to find a class of NL-VO equations.The VO non-integer performance of the solutions is studied broadly by using 2D and 3D graphical representation.The results revealed that the NL VO-FDEs are highly active,functional and convenient in explaining the problems in scientific physics.
