Optimal Trend Labeling in Financial Time Series

Predicting asset price trends is often posed as a classification problem, where trends are classified as positive or negative. Since asset price series are noisy and volatile, it is difficult to distinguish true trends from short-term fluct...

Evaluating Battery Degradation Models in Rolling-Horizon BESS Arbitrage Optimization

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can benefit from price volatility in electricity markets, but frequent cycling increases degradation and reduces long-term value. This study develops a rolling-horizon dispatch framework in which batter...

Deep neural network-based prediction of tsunami wave attenuation by mangrove forests

The goal of this research is to develop a model employing deep neural networks (DNNs) to predict the effectiveness of mangrove forests in attenuating the impact of tsunami waves. The dataset for the DNN model is obtained by simulating tsuna...

Identification of Interfunctional Coordination Items Important for Business Performance of SMEs

This paper provides a deeper analysis of the relationships between interfunctional coordination (IFC) and business performance (BP). IFC is studied in many fields such as marketing, management, logistics, informatics or human resources. The...

Convolutional Neural Network Based Approval Prediction of Enhancement Reports

For a given software enhancement report, identifying its possible approval status could help software developers by suggesting feature enhancements to compete in the software industry. An automatic solution for the approval prediction of en...

Comparing Large-Eddy Simulation and Gaussian Plume Model to Sensor Measurements of an Urban Smoke Plume

The fast prediction of the extent and impact of accidental air pollution releases is important to enable a quick and informed response, especially in cities. Despite this importance, only a small number of case studies are available studyin...

Decolonising cinematography education: experimenting with lighting ratios and textures for Black and Asian skin tones

Cinematographers are trained to control and measure the relative difference in brightness between two parts of a scene, or a face, for expressive purposes. Painting is often referred to for inspiration as practitioners learn to compose and ...

On the Structure of Oxygen Deficient Amorphous Oxide Films

Abstract Understanding defects in amorphous oxide films and heterostructures is vital to improving performance of microelectronic devices, thin‐film transistors, and electrocatalysis. However, to what extent the structure and properties of ...

Consumer ethnocentrism under the circumstances of the COVID-19 virus pandemic

Background: The new circumstances of life due to the proclamation of the COVID 19 virus pandemic have caused numerous changes both in general people's lives and in consumption. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to identify changes in the de...

Tensioned flexible riser vibrations under wave excitation, an investigation on the scale effect

In order to study the scale effect in wave-structure interactions and the role that structure-related parameters (tension T or bending stiffness EI) plays, riser model tests under regular waves were conducted using the model with multiple g...

Influence of Intellectual-cultural Orientation as Family Culture on Chinese College Students’ Subjective Well-being: A Moderation Model

The well-known mediation-moderation model of subjective well-being has been criticized because it oversimplified the concept of culture. This study aimed to explore whether the family culture, as supplement of social culture, has significan...
