Constructing a Knowledge Graph for the Chinese Subject Based on Collective Intelligence
Knowledge graphs are a valuable tool for intelligent tutoring systems and are typically constructed with a focus on objectivity and accuracy. However, they may not effectively capture the subjectivity and complex relationships...
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...
The careful control of Polo kinase by APC/C-Ube2C ensures the intercellular transport of germline centrosomes during Drosophila oogenesis.
A feature of metazoan reproduction is the elimination of maternal centrosomes from the oocyte. In animals that form syncytial cysts during oogenesis, including Drosophila and human, all centrosomes within the cyst migrate to the...

Macroscopic Model for Head-On Binary Droplet Collisions in a Gaseous Medium
J Li
Nov 14, 2016
In this Letter, coalescence-bouncing transitions of head-on binary droplet collisions are predicted by a novel macroscopic model based entirely on fundamental laws of physics. By making use of the lubrication theory of Zhang and...
