The China threat theory has been prevalent in recent years. Focusing on each of the four East Asian states, this article examines why China is perceived as a threat. This article discusses the origin of China’s rapid economic...
We are grateful for the opportunity to work on Mapping Politics, the peer-reviewed political science journal of Memorial University. This volume has excellent scholarship that will be exposed to a wider audience than ever.This...
Recently, a reversible data hiding (RDH) method was proposed based on local histogram shifting. This method selects the peak bin of the local histogram as a reference and expands the two neighboring bins of the peak bin to carry...
Shared decision making (SDM) is an important tool for recovery-oriented practice in mental health services. It has been defined using narrow and broad conceptualizations. One overarching theme that merges the differing models is...
W⊕X is a protection mechanism against control-flow hijacking attacks. Return-oriented programming (ROP) can perform a specific function by searching for appropriate assembly instruction fragments (gadgets) in a code segment and...
Digital twins provide a solution for information-sharing between enterprises, thereby alleviating uncertainties in the supply chain. In light of the public crisis caused by COVID-19, the authors suggest a signal game model for a...
This work aims to document a two-sided impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on online question and answer communities. It implements empirical analyses on subsidiary communities affiliating to the Stack Exchange network. Using a...
A substantial body of research has been devoted to the analysis of motion trajectories. Usually, a motion trajectory consists of a set of coordinates, which is called a raw trajectory. In this paper, the authors first use...
To improve the accuracy of image classification, a kind of improved model is proposed. The shortcut is added to GoogLeNet inception v1 and several other ways of shortcut are given, and they are GRSN1_2, GRSN1_3, GRSN1_4. Among...

Text entry remains key to many tasks on touchscreen smartphones and is an important factor in the usability of such devices. The known problems of text entry can be particularly acute for older adults due to physical and...
The mobile edge computing (MEC) model is featured by the ability to provision elastic computing resources close to user requests at the edge of the internet. This paradigm moves traditional digital infrastructure close to mobile...
To deal with global warming and energy shortage, nuclear power plants are constructed or planning to be constructed in China presently. The operation of a nuclear power plant consumes a great amount of water and discharges a lot...
Deep learning has attracted more and more attention in speech recognition, visual recognition and other fields. In the field of image processing, using deep learning method can obtain high recognition rate. In this paper, the...
Edge computing undertakes downlink cloud services and uplink terminal computing tasks, data interaction latency and network transmission cost are thus significantly reduced. Although a lot of research has been conducted in...
In summary, firstly, a method for establishing a portfolio model is proposed based on the risk management theory of the financial market. Then, a prediction model for CVaR is established based on the convolutional neural...
