Biologists synthesize research articles into coherent models—ideally, causal models, which predict how systems will respond to interventions. But it is challenging to derive causal models from articles alone, without primary data. To enable causal discovery using only literature, we built software for annotating empirical results in free text and computing valid explanations, expressed as causal graphs...
Agent-based stochastic simulation is an established approach to study infectious diseases. Its advantage is the flexibility to incorporate important concepts. The effect of various mitigation strategies has been demonstrated using simulation models. Most of the previous studies compared a few options with a few selected scenarios. We propose to use genetic algorithms to search for the best vaccination...
This paper describes logic and circuit design features of a heterogeneous tri-cluster deca-core CPU complex incorporated into a 10nm FinFET mobile SoC for smartphone applications. Similar to Helio X20 [1], the Deca-Core compute function contains three separate clusters of ARMv8a CPUs. The high-performance (HP) cluster is updated to incorporate the most power-efficient out-of-order Cortex-A73 CPU,...
This paper proposes a novel method named ScholarRank to evaluate the scientific impact of rising stars. Our proposed ScholarRank integrates the merits of both statistical indicators and influence calculation algorithms in heterogeneous academic networks. The ScholarRank method considers three factors, which are the citation counts of authors, the mutual influence among coauthors and the mutual reinforce...
This work proposes to investigate the question of whether attending conference will breed new scientific collaboration based on the focal closure theory. Through the analysis of conference closure on individual and community level, we show that attending conference can promote new scientific collaborations, and conferences with more attendees and higher field ratings bring more new scientific collaborations.
Network function virtualization (NFV) enabled software defined optical transport networks are first designed to implement the virtualization of control and node function, and virtualization solution is demonstrated to verify the overall feasibility and efficiency.
Many constraint conditions should be considered in the design of the cap of pile foundation, and the work is very tedious. So it's necessary to complete the design work with the aid of the software. This paper is based on secondary development way of ObjectARX, with using the parametric approach to develop the software for designing pile foundation. By using the extended record of the graph database,...
The software was developed to realize the braking calculation of self-designed low-floor trams throughadjusting parameters, such as the bogie number, the bogie type, vehicle parameters, electro-hydraulic braking parameters, foundation braking parameters and so on. In this software, the calculation of braking force, the brake cylinder pressure, the braking distance, braking time can be achieved. Thedistribution...
After studying the current principle andarchitecture of antivirus gateway for Web security detection, we found that the conventional virus scan is based on filescanning, which takes significant processing time. Whenscanning big size files, it may often cause disconnection of filetransferring with a time-out error message prompted out. Tosolve the problem of slow file virus scan, we propose a newmethod...
In this paper, a diplexer with high isolation and out-of-band rejection is proposed. In the working band 1.5 GHz to 3.0 GHz, two transmission bands with bandwidth 30 and 22 MHz center at 1.95 and 2.12 GHz separately are realized. In each single path, a special section which not directly connects to “T” structure and the terminal port to let signals coupling twice before transmitting to the terminal...
Composite services are notoriously prone to failure, this is particularly true for long-running, and data-intensive services. Different composition strategies can be employed to make compositions robust. Any service composition strategy does impact performance at the lower network layer and needs to be assessed. Novel approaches are needed to model and evaluate dynamically reconfigurable service composition...
The purpose of this paper is to investigate empirically how and to what extent customer emotion mediates the relationship between positive customer participation and customer satisfaction, compared with customer value prior research suggested. Data collected from 239 valid microblog user questionnaires were analyzed by structural equation modelling. Empirical results confirm that customer emotion...
We present a cloud resources integrated provisioning architecture utilizing coordinated virtualization of distributed datacenters and operator's multi-domain software define optical network. The overall feasibility and efficiency of two proposed virtual network composition schemes are investigated on our testbed.
The Mining Software Repositories (MSR) research community has grown significantly since the first MSR workshop was held in 2004. As the community continues to broaden its scope and deepens its expertise, it is worthwhile to reflect on the best practices that our community has developed over the past decade of research. We identify these best practices by surveying past MSR conferences and workshops...
Software frameworks provide sets of generic functionalities that can be later customized for a specific task. When developers invoke API methods in a framework, they often encounter obstacles in finding the correct usage of the API, let alone to employ best practices. Previous research addresses this line of questions by mining API usage patterns to induce API usage templates, by conducting and compiling...
The interface design of software used on Home Appliances targeted at satisfying passenger's physiology and psychological needs when operating the machine to the maximum extent is a complicated synthetic topic which embracing ergonomics, visual communication design, user experience design, behavior psychology, cultural studies of the consumer, optics and Chromatics and so on. So, it is very difficult...
Full coverage testing is commonly perceived as a mission impossible because software is more complex than ever and produces vast space to cover. This paper introduces a novel approach which uses ACSL formal specifications to define and reach test coverage, especially in the sense of data coverage. Based on this approach, we create a tool chain named FAST which can automatically generate test harness...
This paper gives an overview of OpenVR, a software tool that is able to construct a virtual robot and its working environment from CAD source files. The virtual robot can be played with the same as a real robot by providing corresponding controller and sensor interfaces, thus contribute to the research of robotics in concept visualization, robot design, and algorithm and software development. General...
Selective regression testing involves retesting of software systems with a subset of the test suite to verify that modifications have not adversely impacted existing functions. The J2EE platform has come to dominate the commercial Java application market. Unlike standalone Java applications, J2EE applications also use configuration files to control the presentation, service, data access, and persistence...
Currently the extensive application of embedded multimedia processing calls for requirement of hardware acceleration and multi-function expansion, it firmly requires an scalable and efficient design of system architecture for embedded multimedia processing terminal. At first, system architecture with distinct structures and reasonable modules is designed, a simplified multimedia framework is designed...
