Abstract

Introduction:
Developing Class II malocclusion is one of the prevalent and dramatic problems in the growing dentition stage, which demands early interception. The prefabricated preorthodontic trainer (POT) was created in response to the need for a prefabricated, configurable device. The trainer system was created to combine the principles of myofunctional therapy with dental alignment into a user-friendly, single-size device.

Materials and Methods:
Patients after diagnosis with angles Class II malocclusion with retro-positioned mandible and an overjet >4 mm and ANB more than 4°, with normal dentition for the age were selected for the study. The study conducted, was an experimental randomized clinical trial on a sample size of 12, 6 of which were given the POT appliance and 6 acted as the control group and were given the conventional twin block appliance.

Results:
The overjet and overbite measures between the experimental and control groups did not differ significantly. Superior soft-tissue changes were accomplished with the POT appliance. The sagittal advancement by the POT and twin block appliance improved the upper and lower airway considerably.

Conclusion:
In comparison to standard twin block appliances, the POT appliance offers an easy alternative treatment strategy. The twin block appliance caused more skeletal alterations than the POT, although both appliances corrected a developing Class II Division 1 malocclusion. The POT appliance however, resulted in better soft-tissue corrections.

ABSTRACT
We report our experience with nephron-sparing surgery for a completely endophytic small renal mass in an allograft kidney. A 37-year-old female, 14 years post live-related renal transplant for end-stage renal disease due to crescentic glomerulonephritis, presented with a 3.6 cm renal mass. She underwent open allograft partial nephrectomy and was discharged on the 5th postoperative day. Six months postsurgery, she showed excellent graft function with no tumor recurrence. Nephron-sparing surgery of the allograft kidney presents challenges regarding vascular anatomy, hilar, and parenchymal adhesions making the surgery difficult, but is feasible and oncologically safe for transplant recipients with tumors in the allograft kidney.

Published: January 2025

We provide a collaborative autoethnographic narrative account (Poulos, 2021) of our experiences as practitioners working in overlapping, related Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) roles (academic developer, learning designer, educational technologist) in Australian universities. Despite wide ranging demand for our roles, particularly during and post COVID pandemic (Bellaby and Sankey, 2020; Baré et al., 2021) these ‘third space’ roles (Whitchurch 2008; 2013) are often not well understood (Mitchell et al., 2017; Altena et al., 2019). Such roles may experience challenges in credibility and visibility (Fyffe, 2018), relationship-building (Mitchell et al., 2017), and limitations for career progression (Slade et al., 2019). We provide a selection of our accounts related specifically to key tensions for third space TEL roles in building collaborative relationships and what these contradictions in practice can mean for productivity, morale, wellbeing, career progression and identity formation.

Our autoethnographic process has uncovered connections between professional identity, professional relationships and organisational context that provide insight into tensions for third space productivity and morale. We propose a tentative framework to explain the relationships of these connections, which may support those in third space TEL roles and their managers in making sense of their identities. By discussing our own journeys, not only can we begin to uncover tensions more fully, but we also uncover viable solutions to the way progression pathways, organisational structures and relationships across teams are conceived and leveraged within and across the sector.

Improved Ant Colony Algorithm in Optimizing Evacuation Path Planning
Authors: YuGuo  
Published: January 2025

The traditional ant colony algorithm has played an important role in the evacuation path planning of ship personnel. By simulating the process of ants searching for food, it effectively solves the optimization problem of evacuation paths, improves evacuation efficiency and safety.However, traditional ant colony algorithm in path planning applicationsalsohas some shortcomings, such as the heuristic function does not introduce the distance of the target point, insufficient utilization of obstacle information, and insufficient difference in the probability of each node. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved ant colony algorithmto solve these problems.In view of that the traditional ant colony algorithm converges slowly and easily falls into local optimum, the distance correction function is introduced into the heuristic function by combining the basic concept of the evaluation function of A* algorithm; the obstacle avoidance function is introduced to make the heuristic function guide the ants forward more reasonably; the smoothness function is introduced to reduce the number of turns and control the turning angle of the planned path.The effectiveness and applicability of the improved algorithm are verified through two sets of experiments, and the improved ant colony algorithm meets the needs of emergency evacuation of actual ship personnel.Simulation and experimental results show that the method proposed can solve the randomness of turning path selection at the early stage of the algorithm, has better global search ability and convergence, and performs better in the number of iterations and computation time, and can provide efficient and safe evacuation plan in the shortest time, which meets the demand of emergency evacuation of actual cruise ship personnel.

Authors: Qinghua Chen  
Published: January 2025

In order to improve the prediction accuracy of coal and gas outburst in the case of missing data, a coal and gas outburst prediction model based on MICE_NN interpolation algorithm and improved Pathfinder Algorithm (IPFA) optimized Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is proposed. Firstly, the correlation analysis of various indicators affected by coal and gas outburst is carried out, and the MICE_NN algorithm is used to interpolate the missing values, which is easy to obtain more sufficient information from incomplete data sets and improve the prediction effect and accuracy of the model. Secondly, the Pathfinder algorithm is jointly improved by introducing the evolutionary boundary constraint processing scheme, Levy flight strategy and group fitness variance strategy to improve its global optimization ability, so as to optimize the relevant parameters of ELM and construct the coal and gas outburst prediction model. Finally, the measured data interpolated by MICE_NN are used as samples for experimental verification, and the proposed algorithm is compared with single machine learning and ensemble algorithms. The results show that the data quality based on MICE_NN interpolation is significantly better than the data without interpolation. The classification accuracy, recall rate and of IPFA_ELM model based on MICE_NN interpolation are significantly higher than those of other comparison models. It provides a new idea and method for coal and gas outburst prediction, and provides a strong reference basis for the next step of gas outburst prevention and control.

Authors: Xuewei Li  
Published: January 2025

In online resource search systems, users who lack clear query or viewing objectives often have a certain degree of blindness. Users hope to obtain recommended items from other users with similar behaviors, because the filtered items are more likely to be accepted by new users. Based on this, the paper constructs a knowledge graph using the ontology concept architecture of the project as the knowledge representation foundation. It conducts in-depth research on user behavior around user behavior ontology, project resource ontology, user relationship graph instances, user similarity, and rating matrix completion, in order to find the target user's similar neighbor set. Based on the user's collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm, the predicted rating of the recommended project is calculated and Top-n projects are recommended to the target user. The experimental evaluation results indicate that the collaborative filtering recommendation method based on user behavior analysis proposed in this study has good recommendation quality in online resource recommendation systems.
Research on the Application of Ductile Iron in High-Performance Automobile Parts
Authors: Yuanzheng Ling  
Published: January 2025

Background: Ductile iron, known for its better mechanical properties, is essential in the production of high-performance automobile components. As the automotive industry strives for lightweight yet durable elements, comprehending the relationship between ductile iron material properties and part effectiveness is critical. Predicting the efficiency of these components using their properties can dramatically improve product development and manufacturing procedures.
Objectives: The primary objective of this research is to create the Ductile Iron Part Performance Predictor (DIP3), a sophisticated technique that can predict the performance rating (high, medium, or low) of ductile iron automobile parts. Using machine learning ensemble methods such as Bagging, Boosting, and Stacking, the model intends to offer precise and trustworthy performance predictions.
Methods: The DIP3 model uses a three-step ensemble technique. The first step uses Bagging with the J48 decision tree classifier to create multiple sub-models. The second step improves predictions by combining AdaBoostM1 with RandomForest as the base classifier, which improves on the initial predictions from Bagging. Finally, in the third step, the algorithm uses a SimpleLogistic meta-classifier for Stacking, which combines the results of Bagging and Boosting to make more accurate predictions. Mean/mode imputation for missing values, label encoding for categorical variables, and Min-Max normalization for numerical features are all used for data preprocessing. Information Gain is employed in feature selection to find the most important predictors of part performance.
Results and Conclusion: The DIP3 model was assessed using a variety of performance metrics, comprising accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and MCC. The model had a high level of predictive performance. These results prove the resilience and dependability of the DIP3 model in predicting the performance rating of ductile iron parts. The DIP3 model is a reliable and efficient solution for predicting the performance of high-performance ductile iron automobile parts. By combining Bagging, Boosting, and Stacking approaches, the algorithm offers precise, trustworthy, and interpretable predictions, which can help manufacturers improve their design and manufacturing processes.

Published: January 2025

That is the basis of the whole mechanized production of rice with plastic membrance covering in mountainous areas to raise strong seedlings suitable for mechanical transplanting.This paper,based on annual report data of agricultural machinery equipment from 2012 to 2023 for 12 consecutive years in Wenzhou,Zhejiang,China,studies on the current status,dilemma and countermeasures of whole mechanized production of rice in Wenzhou mountainous areas,by combining theoretical research,data analysis and typical research.The result shows that the mechanization level of rice production in Wenzhou mountainous areas is significantly lower than that in the plain areas,and the progress has been slow over the past decade.In 2023, the comprehensive mechanization level of rice in Taishun and Wencheng, which are pure mountainous areas,was 74.53% and 74.45%,respectively,lower than the average level(89.32%) of Wenzhou,and far lower than Rui'an(92.81%) and Yueqing(93.23%),which are plain in mainly areas. From 2012 to 2023, the level of agricultural mechanization in rice tillage in mountainous areas of Wenzhou improved rapidly, but the progress of agricultural mechanization in transplanting, harvesting and other field management was very slow. In 2023, the rate of machine tillage for rice in Wenzhou reached 99.9%, and that in Taishun and Wencheng, two counties of pure mountainous areas, also reached 100% and 99.5%, respectively, which basically realized the mechanization of rice tillage farming. However, in 2023, the rate of machine transplanting for rice in Taishun and Wencheng was only 28.59% and 25.72%, while the average level of Wenzhou reached 67.78%; and the rate of machine harvesting in Taishun and Wencheng was 86.5% and 89.8% respectively, lower than the average level of Wenzhou (96.8%). At present, the fertilization of rice in Wenzhou mountainous areas depends on manual operation, and the level of mechanical equipment in plant protection link is also not high.From the perspectives of geography, industry, policy, equipment and technology, this paper deeply analyses the dilemma encountered in the mechanization of rice production in Wenzhou mountainous areas, and puts forward some accurate countermeasures and suggestions.This study shows that the low rice transplanting rate is the bottleneck of the whole mechanization of rice production in mountainous areas.And it greatly improve the level of rice mechanical transplanting,combined with the use of plastic membrance cover to cultivate the strong seedlings.By the promotion and application of advanced agricultural machinery and tools,it can realize the whole mechanization of rice cropping in mountainous areas.
