Summary
In recent years, there is an increasing interest in new business models and strategies from both practitioners and researchers. The significant market transformation has been accomplished by leading E-commerce vendors such as Alibaba and Amazon through their innovative and highly scalable E-Commerce eco-systems. In the context of E-Commerce eco-system, there are hundreds of millions of consumers, thousands of businesses and shops, and hundreds of delivery people. Alibaba Group, as one of the main E-Commerce providers, cooperates with tens of thousands of software vendors to provide all necessary software services to support the business. With the booming of eco-business, more ecological roles in E-Commerce businesses emerge. For instance, Alibaba Group has expanded its business scale from Taobao Software to several business units, with 10000 plus technical staff. Large E-Commerce businesses such as Alibaba Group need to support a large number of applications and business modules, and cater for hundreds of business requirements and independent changes on a daily basis. Another new commercial mode, the sharing economy, such as Airbnb, Instacart, and Uber, has already operated on the basis of E-commerce eco-systems and information technologies. The intersection of these information technologies and business models provides ample research opportunities in intelligent processing of data, information and knowledge.

Abstract In the era of big data, E-commerce plays an increasingly important role, and steel E-commerce certainly occupies a positive position. However, it is very difficult to choose satisfactory steel raw materials from diverse steel commodities online on steel E-commerce platforms in the purchase of staffs. In order to improve the efficiency of purchasers searching for commodities on the steel E-commerce platforms, we propose a novel deep learning-based loss function for named entity recognition (NER). Considering the impacts of small sample and imbalanced data, in our NER scheme, the focal loss, the label smoothing, and the cross entropy are incorporated into…

Abstract With the continuous improvement of the e-commerce ecosystem and the rapid growth of e-commerce data, in the context of the e-commerce ecosystem, consumers ask hundreds of millions of questions every day. In order to improve the timeliness of customer service responses, many systems have begun to use customer service robots to respond to consumer questions, but the current customer service robots tend to respond to specific questions. For many questions that lack background knowledge, they can generate only responses that are biased towards generality and repetitiveness. To better promote the understanding of dialogue and generate more meaningful responses, this paper…

Number Entities Recognition in Multiple Rounds of Dialogue Systems
Shan Zhang, Bin Cao, Yueshen Xu, Jing Fan
CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.127, No.1, pp. 309-323, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2021.014802

Innovation and Application of Intelligent Processing of Data, Information and Knowledge in E-Commerce)
Abstract As a representative technique in natural language processing (NLP), named entity recognition is used in many tasks, such as dialogue systems, machine translation and information extraction. In dialogue systems, there is a common case for named entity recognition, where a lot of entities are composed of numbers, and are segmented to be located in different places. For example, in multiple rounds of dialogue systems, a phone number is likely to be divided into several parts, because the phone number is usually long and is emphasized. In this paper, the entity consisting of numbers is named as
number entity. The discontinuous…

Dynamic Pricing Model of E-Commerce Platforms Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning
Chunli Yin, Jinglong Han
CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.127, No.1, pp. 291-307, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2021.014347

Abstract With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, its application field has gradually expanded. To further apply the deep reinforcement learning technology to the field of dynamic pricing, we build an intelligent dynamic pricing system, introduce the reinforcement learning technology related to dynamic pricing, and introduce existing research on the number of suppliers (single supplier and multiple suppliers), environmental models, and selection algorithms. A two-period dynamic pricing game model is designed to assess the optimal pricing strategy for e-commerce platforms under two market conditions and two consumer participation conditions. The first step is to analyze the pricing strategies of e-commerce…

A User-Transformer Relation Identification Method Based on QPSO and Kernel Fuzzy Clustering
Yong Xiao, Xin Jin, Jingfeng Yang, Yanhua Shen, Quansheng Guan
CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.126, No.3, pp. 1293-1313, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2021.012562

Abstract User-transformer relations are significant to electric power marketing, power supply safety, and line loss calculations. To get accurate user-transformer relations, this paper proposes an identification method for user-transformer relations based on improved quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) and Fuzzy C-Means Clustering. The main idea is: as energy meters at different transformer areas exhibit different zero-crossing shift features, we classify the zero-crossing shift data from energy meters through Fuzzy C-Means Clustering and compare it with that at the transformer end to identify user-transformer relations. The proposed method contributes in three main ways. First, based on the fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm (FCM),…

Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet, the amount of data recorded on the Internet has increased dramatically.
It is becoming more and more urgent to effectively obtain the specific information we need from the vast ocean
of data. In this study, we propose a novel collaborative filtering algorithm for generating recommendations in
e-commerce. This study has two main innovations. First, we propose a mechanism that embeds temporal behavior
information to find a neighbor set in which each neighbor has a very significant impact on the current user or item.
Second, we propose a novel collaborative filtering algorithm by injecting…
