Abstract The construction of spot electricity markets plays a pivotal role in power system reforms, where market clearing systems profoundly influence market efficiency and security. Current clearing systems predominantly adopt a single-system architecture, with research focusing primarily on accelerating solution algorithms through techniques such as high-efficiency parallel solvers and staggered decomposition of mixed-integer programming models. Notably absent are systematic studies evaluating the adaptability of primary-backup clearing systems in contingency scenarios—a critical gap given redundant systems’ expanding applications in operational environments. This paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation framework for analyzing dual-system adaptability, demonstrated through an in-depth case… More >

Abstract The emergence of Medical Large Language Models has significantly transformed healthcare. Medical Large Language Models (Med-LLMs) serve as transformative tools that enhance clinical practice through applications in decision support, documentation, and diagnostics. This evaluation examines the performance of leading Med-LLMs, including GPT-4Med, Med-PaLM, MEDITRON, PubMedGPT, and MedAlpaca, across diverse medical datasets. It provides graphical comparisons of their effectiveness in distinct healthcare domains. The study introduces a domain-specific categorization system that aligns these models with optimal applications in clinical decision-making, documentation, drug discovery, research, patient interaction, and public health.

Abstract Comprehensive evaluation based on mineral element content is one of the effective methods for the exploration and utilization of wild tulip germplasm resources. In this study, Tulipa iliensis, Tulipa tianschanica and Tulipa heterophylla distributed in China were used as the research objects. The contents of 10 mineral elements (N, K, P, S, Ca, Mg, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn) in roots, bulbs and leaves were determined, and the three wild tulips were comprehensively evaluated by correlation analysis, principal component analysis and cluster analysis. The results showed distinct variations in mineral element content among different organs of T. iliensis, T. tianschanica and T.… More >

Abstract The proper selection of a relevant mixer generally requires an effective assessment of several models against the application requirements. This is a complex task, as traditional evaluation methods generally focus only on a single aspect of performance, such as pressure loss, mixing characteristics, or heat transfer. This study assesses a urea-based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system installed on a ship, where the installation space is limited and the distance between the urea aqueous solution injection position and the reactor is low; therefore, the static mixer installed in this pipeline has special performance requirements. In particular,… More >

Abstract To better reduce the carbon emissions of a park-integrated energy system (PIES), optimize the comprehensive operating cost, and smooth the load curve, a source-load flexible response model based on the comprehensive evaluation index is proposed. Firstly, a source-load flexible response model is proposed under the stepped carbon trading mechanism; the organic Rankine cycle is introduced into the source-side to construct a flexible response model with traditional combined heat and power (CHP) unit and electric boiler to realize the flexible response of CHP to load; and the load-side categorizes loads into transferable, interruptible, and substitutable loads… More >

Abstract Most ground faults in distribution network are caused by insulation deterioration of power equipment. It is difficult to find the insulation deterioration of the distribution network in time, and the development trend of the initial insulation fault is unknown, which brings difficulties to the distribution inspection. In order to solve the above problems, a situational awareness method of the initial insulation fault of the distribution network based on a multi-feature index comprehensive evaluation is proposed. Firstly, the insulation situation evaluation index is selected by analyzing the insulation fault mechanism of the distribution network, and the… More >

Abstract To effectively quantify the impact of distributed photovoltaic (PV) access on the distribution network, this paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation method of distributed PV grid connection combining subjective and objective combination of assignment and technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS)—rank sum ratio (RSR) (TOPSIS-RSR) method. Based on the traditional distribution network evaluation system, a comprehensive evaluation system has been constructed. It fully considers the new development requirements of distributed PV access on the environmental friendliness and absorptive capacity of the distribution grid and comprehensively reflects the impact of distributed PV… More >

Abstract In recent years, as intelligent transportation systems (ITS) such as autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems have become more popular, there has been a rise in the need for different sources of traffic situation data. The classification of the road surface type, also known as the RST, is among the most essential of these situational data and can be utilized across the entirety of the ITS domain. Recently, the benefits of deep learning (DL) approaches for sensor-based RST classification have been demonstrated by automatic feature extraction without manual methods.
