Environmental pollution has become an important obstacle on the path of ecological civilization construction, and it is urgent to control environmental pollution. By establishing an evolutionary game model, this thesis focuses on analyzing how paper-making enterprises choose their own emission reduction strategies under the reward and punishment mechanism. It further analyzes how social welfare changes under the reward and punishment mechanism, and finally through simulation research, this thesis analyzes the evolutionary paths of paper-making enterprises’ pollution emission strategies under the reward and punishment mechanism. The results of the reward and punishment mechanism are as follows: under the static reward and punishment mechanism, the game system will repeatedly oscillate around a point. There is no stable equilibrium point at this time. However, under the dynamic reward and punishment mechanism, the game system will tend to a stable equilibrium point. The results of social welfare analysis show that high-intensity rewards will reduce the amount of pollution discharged by paper-making enterprises, thereby maximizing social welfare. On the contrary, when paper-making enterprises discharge a large amount of pollution, they will be subject to high-intensity penalties. When facing high-intensity punishments, paper-making enterprises will tend to not to discharge. So social welfare is also maximized. The simulation research results show that reasonable punishment strategies are more effective than reward ones. Based on this, the author proposes countermeasures, such as establishing a reasonable reward and punishment mechanism, reasonably determining the reward and punishment intensity for polluting enterprises. The emission reduction strategies of paper-making enterprises will be affected by the government’s reward and punishment mechanism. A deep study of its internal mechanism is not only of great significance for pollution control but also of great significance for the development of a green economy.

In the paper industry, numerous studies have explored means of optimizing order allocation and cutting trim loss. However, enterprises may not adopt the resulting solutions because some widths of the inventory exceed or are less than those required for acceptable scheduling. To ensure that the results better suit the actual requirements, we present a new decision model based on the adjustment of scheduling and limitation of inventory quantity to differentiate trim loss and inventory distribution data. Differential analysis is used to reduce data filtering and the information is valuable for decision making. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method. The results show that our proposed method outperforms the manual method regarding scheduling quantity and trim loss.

We improve a result in Silverman's paper (1999) and answer a question he posed. We also consider a similar problem and obtain sufficient conditions for starlikeness.

In 1997, J. A. Fridy gave conditions for noninclusion of ordinary and of absolute summability domains. In the present note, these conditions are interpreted in a natural topological context thus giving new proofs and also explaining why one of these conditions is too weak. Also an open question posed in Fridy's paper is answered.

In [1], Craig and Goodman develop the geometrical optics solution of the linearized Korteweg-deVries equation away from caustic, or turning, points. Here we develop an analogous solution valid at caustic points.

THz time-domain spectroscopy has evolved as a noncontact, safe, and efficient technique for paper characterization. Our previous work adopted peak amplitude and delay time as features to determine paper basis weight using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. However, peak amplitude and delay time tend to suffer from noises, resulting in degradation of accuracy and robustness. This paper proposes a noise-robust phase-shift based method to enhance measurements of paper basis weight. Based on Fresnel Formulae, the physical relationship between phase shift and paper basis weight is formulated theoretically neglecting multiple reflections in the case of normal incidence. The established formulation indicates that phase shift correlates linearly with paper basis weight intrinsically. Subsequently, paper sheets were stacked to fabricate the samples with different basis weights, and experimental results verified the developed mathematical formulation. Moreover, a comparison was made between phase shift, peak amplitude, and delay time with respect to linearity, accuracy, and noise robustness. The results show that phase shift is superior to the others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The teaching characteristic of colleges and universities is determined by the teaching quality of teachers, but it is difficult to calculate with a linear mathematical explanation how to judge the teaching quality of teachers. In most colleges and universities, expert evaluations, supervision groups, peers listening to lectures in the classroom, and students' after-class evaluations are still used to determine the teaching ability of professors. It is undeniable that these judgment methods have certain practicality. Especially for new teachers, experts and peers can find problems in time and help new teachers quickly correct them, and they can also know how to better practice the "student-centered" teaching concept from the feedback of students after class. However, these judgment standards also have their limitations. For example, the classroom quality judgment standards for experts and peers are mostly set by some administrative departments according to social requirements, leadership requirements, and subjective cognition. Various institutions should have different weights for the same criterion, and if they all employ the same criteria, it will easily lead to imprecise conclusions. In addition, the expert group and students are also subjective and incomplete in the stage of teacher evaluation. Based on different nonquantitative factors, the evaluation standards for teachers in colleges and universities also need the scientific theoretical basis. Therefore, many scientists are considering whether to use a more intelligent and reasonable way to judge the quality of teaching. Nowadays, with the popularization of artificial intelligence (AI), the use of neural networks (NNs) is becoming more and more comprehensive. According to the characteristics of NNs, this paper uses the GA NNs algorithm to signify that this algorithm can be effectively used in the evaluation of teachers' teaching quality. In this paper, a large number of experimental results show that the use of GA NNs can be used to evaluate the quality of teaching, and the evaluation results can be obtained quantitatively in this way. For the assessment of teaching quality, quantitative results are also more powerful in teaching evaluation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The development of a country's language and literature is the orientation of the country's spiritual strength, and it is also the embodiment of the national literary quality. Chinese language and literature has a very long history of development, the content of which is broad and deep, and there are countless literary works. It is impossible for one person to fully understand these works after spending his entire life. As a result, these literary resources are optimized and constructed and classified into various disciplinary contents, so that students can systematically learn literary knowledge according to their own interests. Therefore, this paper conducts a disciplinary analysis of the construction of Chinese language and literature resources by integrating the method of fuzzy mathematics. Through the study of fuzzy mathematics, the method of fuzzy cluster analysis is proposed to classify Chinese language and literature resources, and the method of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation is used to evaluate the contents of various subjects. This paper selected the richness of subject content, faculty strength, talent demand, and subject difficulty as evaluation indicators. By comparing the scores of various discipline indicators before and after resource optimization, the results showed that using fuzzy cluster analysis, disciplines 1 and 2 were popular disciplines. Disciplines 4 and 5 were general disciplines, and disciplines 3 and 4 were unpopular disciplines. Using the fuzzy comprehensive average, the comprehensive scores of the six disciplines were 84, 79, 80, 82, 83, and 75, respectively. The quality of resource construction in these disciplines was high. In addition, the scores given by experts were all above 70 points, with an average score of about 83 points. It showed that the method of using fuzzy mathematics to construct Chinese language and literature resources has achieved good results, and the results obtained by using the method of disciplinary analysis were reliable and feasible., Author(s): Yanli Li (corresponding author) [1]; Yun Li [1] 1. Introduction China's education system is continuously optimized, and the construction of Chinese language and literature resources should also be accelerated. [...]

Anemia is a global public health problem, especially common among children in developing countries, which affects their physical and mental health development. However, there is currently a lack of research on the relationship between anemia and academic performance. The objective of this study was to explore the association between anemia and academic performance, and the possible factors mediating this association among Chinese children. The data for this study came from the baseline survey of the Chinese Education Panel Survey Elementary School Cohort. The cohort was conducted from September 2018 to June 2019 in 160 elementary schools, covering 20 provinces and 40 counties/districts throughout China. Paper-based questionnaires were used, completed by 4th grade students, parents, head teachers, main teachers, and principals. The data used included questionnaire responses, physical measurements, and academic performance of 17,695 students. Based on students' hemoglobin levels and school altitude data, we grouped them into anemia and nonanemia categories using WHO criteria. The anemia group had 1,154 individuals, while the nonanemia group had 16,541 individuals. An ordinary least squares regression and mediation effect analysis were conducted. Our findings found the prevalence of anemia was 6.52% among Chinese Grade 4 students. Students without anemia had a higher average test score for three academic subjects than students with anemia (P < 0.001); their test scores for Chinese, Mathematics, and English were also higher (P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed a negative association between anemia and average test scores as well as individual test scores for the three subjects. Mediation analysis found that anemia affected academic performance directly (P < 0.05), and indirectly by decreasing the cognition score (P < 0.05). The indirect effect was 19.9% of the total effect. Findings highlighted anemia affected academic performance both directly and indirectly. Nutrition-related interventions should be implemented to prevent a decrease in academic performance among students with anemia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to solve the problems of uneven local educational resources, imperfect comprehensive practice systems, and insufficient teachers in rural schools, this paper proposes a research activity based on mobile information system. The research activities proposed in this paper take STEAM (the acronym of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) as the educational concept, carry out local research-based learning (research-based learning, hereinafter referred to as "research-based learning"), and create STEAM research activities suitable for local teaching in combination with the requirements of national education reform to improve students' scientific literacy such as innovation, scientific, and technological level, and independent practice and exploration. The results are as follows: 92% of the students in the experimental group think that STEAM research and learning activities are very interesting and recognize the research and learning process; STEAM research activities have a strong role in promoting the cultivation of students' three abilities and the training of core skills, and the scores are increased by about 50%; the excellent, good, qualified, and unqualified students in the experimental group accounted for 15%, 73%, 12%, and 0%, respectively, while the control group accounted for 6%, 55%, 32%, and 7%, respectively. Through the participation of STEAM research activities, the students' learning attitude has been greatly improved. The practice of STEAM research activities proposed in this paper in the research and implementation institute has achieved remarkable results, which provides experience for Western schools in the follow-up stage of compulsory education to carry out STEAM research activities.

Educational data mining is becoming a more and more popular research field in recent years, mainly with the help of cross research conducted by various disciplines, so as to solve various difficult problems in the teaching and education process. In this paper, we proposed a hybrid approach for student performance prediction. We collected the dataset, including 15 characteristics of students from three categories (individual basic information, individual education information, and individual behavior information). Based on the random forest (RF) and simulated annealing (SA) algorithms, we binary encode the relevant parameters (number of features, tree size, and tree decision weights) as the target variables for algorithm optimization, use the out-of-bag error as the optimization objective function, and then propose the IRFC (improved random forest classifier) algorithm in this paper. Compared with other mainstream improved random forest algorithms, the research results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm in this paper has higher generalization ability and smaller OOB error. This study provides a methodological reference for the prediction of student achievement and also makes a marginal contribution to student management work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Sports culture industry (CI), as a new sunrise industry, has achieved unprecedented development in the world, and many developed countries regard it as a pillar industry. In our country, the sports CI is quickly growing and contributing significantly to national economic growth. The layout mode of the sports CI is crucial in identifying regional growth advantages and resource development, as well as maximizing industrial function allocation and creating sports CI development strategy. This paper takes Dalian's sports CI as the research object and expounds the concept of sports culture, sports CI, and spatial layout of sports CI through analyzing and sorting out previous research results. This study analyses the evolution and spatial distribution of the Dalian sports CI, as well as the current challenges, using theories and methodologies from sports science and economic geography and proposes countermeasures for Dalian to develop its sports CI. Regional development theories, such as central place theory, growth pole theory, point axis theory, and Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, have important theoretical value and practical guiding significance for the rationalization of spatial distribution of Dalian sports CI. On the basis of analyzing the resources, traffic network, and economic development of Dalian sports CI, the paper constructs the spatial distribution mode of Dalian sports CI, namely, two core points, three development axes, and multiple nodes, and puts forward the measures to optimize the spatial distribution of Dalian sports CI. This paper examines the current condition, resource architecture, and major structure of supply of leisure sports service items in the Zhejiang coastline area using the literature and field inquiry methodologies. On this basis, the optimization countermeasures of combining Zhejiang coastal leisure sports service products with recreational fishery and yacht economy are put forward to perfect the system of coastal leisure sports service products and improve the supply capacity., Author(s): Lu Qi (corresponding author) [1] 1.

In the field of condition-based maintenance, maintenance costs and system reliability criteria are the primary considerations for traditional maintenance management. These methods lack consideration of the environmental impact caused by equipment degradation, such as excessive emissions and energy consumption. In addition, because equipment degradation has various impacts on the ecological environment, companies with excessive emissions and energy consumption can receive huge fines, making it of great value to study ecoconscious maintenance strategies. In this paper, we propose a condition-based maintenance strategy considering energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. The major objective of the research is to extend a model which integrates ecological aspects with maintenance decision-making and optimization. The simulation and sensitivity analyses conducted verify that the model proposed can minimize total costs, as well as the environmental impact., 1. Introduction Maintenance refers to maintaining and repairing equipment and systems to ensure they are in good condition. It is an indispensable activity related to machines, ranging from grinding or [...]

With the development of computer technology, computers have become a part of people's lives and the Internet has connected the world's networks as a whole. Computer technology is changing people's study, life, and work. People's traditional education mode, thinking, content, method, and talent training program have a significant impact. The development from traditional to computer technology-based teaching methods has brought new developments and leaps in educational technology. This paper analyzes the research background, significance, and research status of the advanced mathematics auxiliary teaching system, introduces the related technologies and development modes used in the development of the system, and especially discusses the access database technology by ADO and the mathematical expression based on MathML language. Secondly, starting from the actual teaching, we analyze the functional requirements and performance requirements of the system in detail and make detailed planning and design for the system architecture, database selection, functional modules, etc. The design and implementation process of this teaching system are summarized. The teaching strategy inference engine is the key to the personalization and intelligence of the ICAI system. According to the learning models provided by different students, the system designs a corresponding teaching sequence for the learners by controlling the meta-knowledge of the domain knowledge base. The teaching strategy inference engine cuts the domain knowledge tree, selects the knowledge points suitable for the student, and sorts the selected knowledge points reasonably to generate an optimal teaching sequence. According to the students' learning situation, combined with the teaching rules in the teaching rule library, the students' grades are dynamically adjusted, so as to select new learning content for students and provide teaching suggestions in time. The student model is the premise of the ICAI system to achieve individualization and intelligence. The system makes a comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis of students through fuzzy comprehensive evaluation and fuzzy reasoning. On this basis, a cognitive student model is established, which is the teaching strategy that provided the basis for the formulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Deep learning is an important concept introduced into modern learning science. It is different from the surface learning of mechanically and passively acquiring knowledge and storing individual information but emphasizes learners' active and critical learning. It wants them to understand the full meaning of what they have learned. By establishing a link between existing knowledge and new knowledge, it transfers existing knowledge to a new environment, makes decisions, and solves problems. Deep learning plays an important role in students' learning. Deep learning ability is the key factor affecting the quality of learning and the development of students' academic ability. The quality of in-depth teaching is difficult to guarantee, which requires a complete, comprehensive, and evaluation system to evaluate it. This paper introduces the analytic hierarchy process to weight the indexes in mathematics deep learning and puts forward some suggestions on creating an environment for deep learning. The experimental results show that teachers' teaching accounts for the highest proportion of primary indicators, reaching 67%. Multimedia resources account for the highest proportion of secondary indicators, reaching 73.01%. This paper then puts forward some suggestions for indicators with large weights.

There is a huge amount of mathematical information in the world, and mathematics is everywhere and nowhere. Bayesian theory is based on a process of statistical inference that requires the calculation of general and prior information to obtain a posteriori information. Its main features are the use of probabilities to represent all forms of uncertainty and the use of probabilistic rules to enable learning and inference, estimating the probability of future occurrences by calculating the probability of a past time. In order to bring mathematics closer to life, this paper explores the teaching of mathematical applications in terms of material selection, teaching arrangement, and professional integration. At the same time, in order to better realize mathematics application teaching, effectively improve the classroom effect of mathematics application teaching, and make students better accept mathematical knowledge and apply it to practical applications, the design of mathematics application teaching in this paper is also based on Naive Bayes.

Fractional variants of distance-based parameters have application in the fields of sensor networking, robot navigation, and integer programming problems. Complex networks are exceptional networks which exhibit significant topological features and have become quintessential research area in the field of computer science, biology, and mathematics. Owing to the possibility that many real-world systems can be intelligently modeled and represented as complex networks to examine, administer and comprehend the useful information from these real-world networks. In this paper, local fractional strong metric dimension of certain complex networks is computed. Building blocks of complex networks are considered as the symmetric networks such as cyclic networks C n , circulant networks C n 1,2 , mobious ladder networks M 2 n , and generalized prism networks G m n . In this regard, it is shown that LSFMD of C n n ≥ 3 and G m n n ≥ 6 is 1 when n is even and n / n − 1 when n is odd, whereas LSFMD of M 2 n is 1 when n is odd and n / n − 1 when n is even. Also, LSFMD of C n 1,2 is n / 2 ⌈ m + 1 / 2 ⌉ where n ≥ 6 and m = ⌈ n − 5 / 4 ⌉. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to supplement and improve the landscape evaluation system of traditional villages and play a positive guiding role in the specific protection and development of village landscape, this paper proposes the ecological landscape environment evaluation of traditional villages in Guanzhong from the perspective of rural revitalization. First of all, the relevant national and provincial evaluation standards are deeply studied, and the comprehensive evaluation system of the traditional village landscape in the Guanzhong region is constructed by using expert scoring and an analytic hierarchy process, which includes 6 criteria and 25 indicators. Three typical villages of different types and different development stages, namely, village A, village B, and Village C, were selected for landscape investigation and comprehensive evaluation. The results show that the weight of village location and landscape pattern is the largest, that is, the most important. The second is architectural landscape, with a weight of 0.236, accounting for a high proportion. Then, it is the natural landscape and street landscape, with a weight of 0.1-0.2. Finally, it is the intangible cultural landscape and landscape style protection, with a weight of less than 0.1. The alpha value of the comprehensive evaluation questionnaire of the village A is 0.984. The alpha value of the comprehensive evaluation questionnaire of village B is 0.941. The alpha value of the comprehensive evaluation questionnaire for the landscape of village C is 0.986, which is greater than 0.8. Conclusion. This study makes a comprehensive evaluation of the landscape of typical traditional villages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
