Abstract In this work, a consistent and physically accurate implementation of the general framework of unified second-order time accurate integrators via the well-known GSSSS framework in the Discrete Element Method is presented. The improved tangential displacement evaluation in the present implementation of the discrete element method has been derived and implemented to preserve the consistency of the correct time level evaluation during the time integration process in calculating the algorithmic tangential displacement. Several numerical examples have been used to validate the proposed tangential displacement evaluation; this is in contrast to past practices which only seem to attain the first-order time accuracy… More >

Abstract Image forging is the alteration of a digital image to conceal some of the necessary or helpful information. It cannot be easy to distinguish the modified region from the original image in some circumstances. The demand for authenticity and the integrity of the image drive the detection of a fabricated image. There have been cases of ownership infringements or fraudulent actions by counterfeiting multimedia files, including re-sampling or copy-moving. This work presents a high-level view of the forensics of digital images and their possible detection approaches.

This work proposes a CSLR method based on a spatial-temporal graph attention network to focus on essential features of video series.

Numerical examples are studied to demonstrate the performance of the current scheme.

The strategy can minimize the expected depreciation cost of the system and divide the system into optimal groups that meet economic requirements. First, multi-component models are grouped. Then, a failure probability model of multi-component systems is established.

Abstract In optimization theory, the adaptive control of the optimization process is an important goal that people pursue. To solve this problem, this study introduces the idea of neutrosophic decision-making into classical heuristic algorithm, and proposes a novel neutrosophic adaptive clustering optimization thought, which is applied in a novel neutrosophic genetic algorithm (NGA), for example. The main feature of NGA is that the NGA treats the crossover effect as a neutrosophic fuzzy set, the variation ratio as a structural parameter, the crossover effect as a benefit parameter and the variation effect as a cost parameter, and then a neutrosophic fitness function… More >

Abstract This study considered and predicted blast-induced ground vibration (PPV) in open-pit mines using bagging and
sibling techniques under the rigorous combination of machine learning algorithms. Accordingly, four machine
learning algorithms, including support vector regression (SVR), extra trees (ExTree), K-nearest neighbors (KNN),
and decision tree regression (DTR), were used as the base models for the purposes of combination and PPV initial
prediction. The bagging regressor (BA) was then applied to combine these base models with the efforts of variance
reduction, overfitting elimination, and generating more robust predictive models, abbreviated as BA-ExTree, BAKNN, BA-SVR, and BA-DTR. It is emphasized that the ExTree… More >

Abstract The aims of this study were threefold: 1) study the research gap in carpark and price index via big data and natural
language processing, 2) examine the research gap of carpark indices, and 3) construct carpark price indices via
repeat sales methods and predict carpark indices via the AutoML. By researching the keyword “carpark” in Google
Scholar, the largest electronic academic database that covers Web of Science and Scopus indexed articles, this study
obtained 999 articles and book chapters from 1910 to 2019. It confirmed that most carpark research threw light on
multi-storey carparks, management and ventilation systems, and reinforced… More >
