The paper examines the fusion of narratives, time, space, and personal identity through ethnographic study of rickshaw driver’s performance in the context of “Hutong tour” as a form of urban tourism in Beijing, a cosmopolitan...
A Blind Print-Recapture Robust Watermark Scheme by Calculating Self-Convolution
A blind print-recapture robust watermark scheme is proposed. Watermark patterns are embedded into the space domain of a color image and can be detected from a print-recaptured version of the image without knowledge of the...
Identification of high risk clinical and imaging features for intracranial artery dissection using high-resolution cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Abstract: Background: Intracranial artery dissection (IAD) often causes headache and cerebral vascular ischemic events. The imaging characteristics of IAD remain unclear. This study aims to characterize the appearance of culprit...
Mitotic gene conversion can be as important as meiotic conversion in driving genetic variability in plants and other species without early germline segregation

In contrast to common meiotic gene conversion, mitotic gene conversion, because it is so rare, is often ignored as a process influencing allelic diversity. We show that if there is a large enough number of premeiotic cell...

First birth following spindle transfer for mitochondrial replacement therapy
In this issue, Zhang et al. (2017) report the birth of a healthy boy after mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT) by spindle transfer to prevent transmission of mitochondrial disease from mother to child. The case was first...
Minimising efficiency roll-off in high-brightness perovskite light-emitting diodes.
Efficiency roll-off is a major issue for most types of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and its origins remain controversial. Here we present investigations of the efficiency roll-off in perovskite LEDs based on two-dimensional...
Dynamic pricing for responsive demand to increase distribution network efficiency

This paper designs a novel dynamic tariff scheme for demand response (DR) by considering networks costs through balancing the trade-off between network investment costs and congestion costs. The objective is to actively...

Application of an Encoding Revision Algorithm in Overlapping Coalition Formation
Overlapping coalition formation is a very active research field in multi-agent systems (MAS). In overlapping coalition, each agent can participate in different coalitions corresponding to multiple tasks at the same time. As each...
Decarbonizing university campuses through the production of biogas from food waste
The amount of food waste production in China catering industry is approximately 17–18 Mt per year. This sector accounts for about 20% of the total food losses in China. China's National Development and Reform commission has...

Strong Coupling in Conserved Surface Roughening
The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation defines the main universality class for nonlinear growth and roughening of surfaces. But under certain conditions, a conserved KPZ equation (CKPZ) is thought to set the universality class...
Point of View in Translator's Style
Yang Liu
Oct 31, 2022
Based on self-built parallel and comparable corpora, this paper explores the translator's style manifested in two Chinese translations of Moment in Peking (one by Zhang Zhenyu and the other by Yu Fei). The findings demonstrate...
The Role of DIKWP Assets in Shaping Economic Systems and Implications for an Intelligent Consultant System in Real Estate Investment
Traditional economic theory revolves around information asymmetry, where some possess more knowledge than others. However, the digital age is upending this paradigm. This research proposes a groundbreaking shift: a transition...
