Ports are essential and strategic nodes of international trade and economic activities. The integration of port resources helps enhance the optimal division of port functions to further promote economic development. This paper explores the evolutionary trends of port integration policy from 2011 to 2021 in China through a text-mining approach. We first used the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic analysis method to analyze the port integration policies and summarize the evolutionary trends of port policies. In addition, an association analysis was conducted to explore port integration policies' impacts by examining their relationships among the environmental protection, digitalization level, and port development scale. Our findings suggested that China's port integration policy has evolved from specific and simple to abstract and complicated at the managerial level. Port development has enriched from infrastructure construction to the ideology of economic development. Our findings show that China's port integration is gradually improving the port operation. The findings of the study contribute to the extant literature by analyzing the port integration policy evolution in China and can be referred to by other countries. • Text mining method was used to explore the port integration policy evolution. • Port integration policy evolved from specific and simple to abstract and complicated. • Port development enriched from basic infrastructure to the governance model. • The evolution of port integration policy was related to reducing carbon emissions in the port sector. • The evolution of port integration policy made the ports intelligent in association with digital technology such as big data and AI.

Colour is an important factor in the expression of recognizability and cultural identity of regional cultural and creative design. At present, the colour recognition of regional characteristic and the colour association of regional culture mainly rely on the designer's subjective perception. To obtain the target colour resources with reference for regional cultural and design need, this study proposes a scientific method of colour extraction and strong colour association matching of Shanghai style Chinese paintings by machine learning, and applies the related results to the colour design of cultural and creative products. Firstly, using the SLIC superpixel algorithm and Mean shift algorithm to realize the overall dimensionality reduction of the image features and the colour aggregation gradually, so as to extract the characteristic colours of Shanghai style Chinese paintings; Secondly, we introduce a data mining algorithm (Apriori) to mine out the association rules from multiple characteristics colours and filter out strongly associated colour combinations; Finally, we apply the colour combinations and colour tones to the colour design of the creative products. In order to verify the scientificity of the colour extraction and colour matching method proposed in this paper, we selected another painter's paintings in the same school as the algorithm experimental validation sample, similar results were obtained. In addition, we measured user satisfaction using the degree of awakening to Shanghai style culture and the propensity to make consumer decisions as the evaluation dimensions, which proves that the method of this study is effective.
