Toward C++ as a Platform for Language-Oriented Programming: On the Embedding of a Model-Based Real-Time Language
Creators: name: Prastowo, Tadeus
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2020

description: Cyber-physical systems are dynamic physical systems that are controlled by computers for their safe and sound operations (e.g., cars, satellites, robots, elevators, and many others). Consequently, the programs running cyber-physical systems have real-time requirements, which require the programs to compute not only correctly but also timely because dynamic physical systems need to move to correct positions within certain duration to ensure safe and sound operations. To satisfy real-time requirements in better ways, many real-time languages have been proposed in the literature. Nevertheless, the general-purpose non-real-time languages C and C++ have remained the de facto languages to program cyber-physical systems, including Mars rovers and F-35 jet fighters. Given this reality, the better ways to satisfy real-time requirements have been the use of model-based tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink) that allow cyber-physical systems to be designed by modeling and simulating them and the resulting models to be translated automatically to C programs. Model-based tools, however, leave the resulting C programs for manual integration with other C/C++ programs, such as legacy/third-party device drivers and libraries. Since manual integration could slip in some inconsistencies, which proved fatal in the maiden flight of Ariane-5 rocket, this work shows how the standard features of C++, which support active libraries, can be used to embed a model-based real-time language, called Tice, as a C++ active library that can be used to declaratively express models of real-time systems that are processable by off-the-shelf standard C++ compilers (e.g., GCC and Clang) that automatically not only translate the models into C/C++ programs but also check both the validity of the models and the consistency of the models with other C/C++ programs. Furthermore, being compilable by off-the-shelf standard C++ compilers also sets Tice apart from other real-time languages already proposed in the literature because the other languages require either their own special compilers/interpreters or non-standard C/C++ compilers. Consequently, while Tice itself either uses no C++ features that are unsuitable for cyber-physical systems (e.g., exception) or uses some in judicious manner (e.g., template instantiations to generate programs), Tice prevents no usage that is permitted by standard C++ compilers. Beside that, as C++ active libraries are indeed ordinary C++ libraries, C++ active libraries are seamlessly composable as ordinary C++ libraries, and therefore, as models play an increasingly important role in software engineering, this work shows the potential of C++ as a platform for language-oriented programming where different languages that express different kinds of models and are embedded as C++ active libraries could be composed seamlessly.

description: В данной статье предложен алгоритм динамического ценообразования, не используемый еще в сфере гостиничного бизнеса достаточно широко. Описана актуальность проблемы и методы ее решения, путем использования математико-статистического аппарата. Данный алгоритм на основе открытых данных определяет модель, оценивающую заполняемость гостиницы в том или ином месяце и формирующую прогнозные значения загрузки в будущем. Выдвинуто предложение о формировании на основе таких данных ценовой политики отеля. Для формирования функции определены переменные и рассмотрены способы сбора эмпирических данных на основе открытых источников данных. Рассмотрены варианты обучения алгоритма по выборкам для формирования функции с подходящими коэффициентами и весами переменных. Предложено использование стандартной регрессионной модели, созданной на основе методе наименьших квадратов Гаусса, а также приведены тесты, при помощи которых можно определить, удовлетворяет ли тем или иным требованиям построенная модель, является ли она объективной и достаточно ли точно она описывает изучаемое явление. Кроме того, приводится теоретический пример использования данной системы при управлении тарифами гостиниц, то есть когда отельер устанавливает цену на проживание для определенного периода, и описан метод максимизации прибыли на основе предложенного метода. Предложено формирование системы взаимосвязанных показателей (заполняемость гостиницы и прибыль организации, зависящая от загрузки), при решении которой достигается максимизация дохода конкретного временного средства размещения (гостиницы). Рассмотрена экономическая составляющая, влияющая на поведение потребителя, определяющаяся взаимосвязью предложения, ценой и спросом.

description: Η παρούσα διατριβή εξετάζει την τηλεοπτική σειρά Fargo (FX, 2014-σήμερα) από την σκοπιά του όρου Quality TV. Ο κυρίως στόχος της εργασίας είναι να εξετάσει τον όρο Quality TV στις μέρες, συγκρίνοντας παλαιότερους ορισμούς με σύγχρονους. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, η εργασία αναλύει την σειρά Fargo, εξετάζοντας ποιοτικά χαρακτηριστικά βασισμένα στην δουλειά του Robert J. Thompson (1996). Η θεωρία αυτή αν και θεωρείται γερασμένη, παίζει σημαντικό ρόλο πάνω στην έννοια Quality TV. Επιπλέον η εργασία παρουσιάζει πιο σύγχρονες έννοιες για την Ποιοτική Τηλεόραση από τους Cardwell (2007), Mittel (2015), McCabe και Akass (2007), Newman και Levine (2012). Κατανοώντας την εξέλιξη της τηλεόρασης μέσα στα χρόνια, η έρευνα αυτή προσπαθεί να φέρει στην επιφάνεια και να κατανοήσει για ποιόν λόγο οι παλαιότερες θεωρίες για την έννοια Quality TV δεν είναι αρκετές ώστε να εφαρμοστούν σε ένα σύγχρονο τηλεοπτικό περιβάλλον. Επιπλέον, η εργασία αυτή ερευνά και την θεωρία της Cardwell όσον αφορά την έννοια Good TV. Εν κατακλείδι, η εργασία απαντά στο ερώτημα αν η τηλεοπτική σειρά Fargo εμπίπτει στις έννοιες Quality TV και Good TV.
description: The present thesis examines Fargo (FX, 2014-present) as a case study of contemporary Quality TV. The primary objective is to examine the concept of Quality Television in our days, by comparing recent theories with older ones. More specifically, this paper is going to analyze Fargo, by examining its quality aspects based on the work of Robert J. Thompson (1996), a foundational theory which is rather aged - yet a catalyst behind the theory of Quality TV, as well as more recent theories such as those of Cardwell (2007), Mittel (2015), McCabe and Akass (2007) and Newman and Levine (2012). By contextualizing the evolution of television through various historical periods, this research will seek to understand why old theories of Quality TV are not enough to apply in contemporary reality. Moreover, this study will also explore Cardwell’s theory of Good TV, and eventually assess whether Fargo, in addition to being a Quality Television show, can also be considered as a Good TV show

description: Усиливающийся фактор конкуренции предполагает постоянную борьбу субъектов экономики за улучшение своих рыночных позиций и финансовых результатов, поэтому у организаций возникает необходимость грамотной всесторонней оценки и управления уровнем конкурентоспособности. Несмотря на большое число исследований, посвященным вопросам управления конкурентоспособностью, существует потребность в конкретных методических разработках, позволяющих систематизировать и регламентировать работу в этой области. Авторами разработаны и обоснованы логическая схема и методические положения по управлению конкурентоспособностью организации на основе маркетингового подхода, определяющие состав и содержание этапов работ и их последовательность. Оригинальность данных разработок заключается в идентификации типа конкурентоспособности организации на базе расчета двухкомпонентного показателя, состоящего из показателя оценки внешних факторов конкурентоспособности и показателя оценки внутренних факторов конкурентоспособности, значения которых определяются в соответствии с предложенной процедурой, а также в формализации процесса стратегического выбора для организации исходя из типа ее конкурентоспособности с использованием матрицы, разработанной авторами на основе интеграции и модификации методов SWOT и портфельного анализа.
Charge density waves as the origin of dip-hump structures in differential tunneling conductance of cuprates: the case of $d$-wave superconductivity

description: Conductance-voltage characteristics (CVCs) for non-symmetric tunnel junctions between $d$-wave superconductors with charge-density waves (CDWs) and normal metals were calculated. It was shown that they have a V-like form at small voltages $V$ and are asymmetric at larger $V$ owing to the presence of CDW peak in one of the $V$-branches. The spatial scatter of the dielectric (CDW) order parameter smears the CDW peak into a hump and induces a peak-dip-hump structure (PDHS) typical of CVCs observed for such junctions. At temperatures larger than the superconducting critical temperature, the PDHS evolves into a pseudogap depression. The results agree well with the scanning tunneling microscopy data for Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+δ}$ and YBa$_{2}% $Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-δ}$.

description: Numerous algorithms are used for nonnegative matrix factorization under the assumption that the matrix is nearly separable. In this paper, we show how to make these algorithms efficient for data matrices that have many more rows than columns, so-called "tall-and-skinny matrices". One key component to these improved methods is an orthogonal matrix transformation that preserves the separability of the NMF problem. Our final methods need a single pass over the data matrix and are suitable for streaming, multi-core, and MapReduce architectures. We demonstrate the efficacy of these algorithms on terabyte-sized synthetic matrices and real-world matrices from scientific computing and bioinformatics.

description: We study the stabilization of a trapless Bose-Einstein condensate by analysing the mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equation with attractive two- and three-body interactions through both analytical and numerical methods. Using the variational method we show that there is an enhancement of the condensate stability due to the inclusion of a three-body interaction in addition to the two-body interaction. We also study the stability of the condensates in the presence of the time-varying three-body interaction. Finally we confirm the stabilization of a trapless condensate from numerical simulation.

description: We demonstrate the effectiveness of the Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory mission concept for constraining the atmospheric properties of hot and warm gas giants and super Earths. Synthetic primary and secondary transit spectra for a range of planets are passed through EChOSim (Waldmann & Pascale 2014) to obtain the expected level of noise for different observational scenarios; these are then used as inputs for the NEMESIS atmospheric retrieval code and the retrieved atmospheric properties (temperature structure, composition and cloud properties) compared with the known input values, following the method of Barstow et al. (2013a). To correctly retrieve the temperature structure and composition of the atmosphere to within 2 σ, we find that we require: a single transit or eclipse of a hot Jupiter orbiting a sun-like (G2) star at 35 pc to constrain the terminator and dayside atmospheres; 20 transits or eclipses of a warm Jupiter orbiting a similar star; 10 transits/eclipses of a hot Neptune orbiting an M dwarf at 6 pc; and 30 transits or eclipses of a GJ1214b-like planet.

Представлена характеристика надзорно-контрольных органов федеральной власти в сфере несостоятельности организаций. Рассмотрены регулирующие и защитные механизмы института банкротства с учетом его «реабилитационной» составляющей. На основе статистических данных Высшего арбитражного суда РФ определена результативность восстановительных процедур в делах о несостоятельности и причины перехода организаций к стадии конкурсного производства. Обоснована схема действия при выборе процедур банкротства должника в рамках экономического жизненного цикла организации. Разработан алгоритм управления организацией в условиях кризиса путем сбалансирования уровней управляемости и адаптивности социально-экономической системы. Под степенью управляемости понимается уровень подконтрольности параметров бизнес-единицы со стороны менеджмента организации. Адаптивность отражает ее способность к регенерации и изменению во внутренней и внешней среде. Исходя из этого, представлены сценарии развития кризисной ситуации и «реабилитационные» механизмы института банкротства на стадиях финансового оздоровления, внешнего управления и мирового соглашения.

description: Depression and anxiety are common mental health disorders, affecting 264 million and 284 million people worldwide, respectively. Although effective treatments for depression exist, healthcare providers in America diagnose only 47% of patients. Consequently, barriers to effective care include the lack of accurate, feasible screening and diagnosis tools. Currently, screening and diagnosis methods employ self-reported patient surveys, which are highly subjective, along with in-person clinical interviews to assess symptom severity, which are resource-intensive due to shortage of clinicians. In this work, we collect data from 110 patients before their regularly scheduled visit, either in-person or virtual, to the Stanford Family Medicine clinic. We collect ground truth PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores, which are clinically validated instruments to screen for depression and anxiety, and record video, audio, and text transcriptions of patient responses to 11 questions. We train unimodal deep learning models that use audio, video, or text transcriptions of the conversations to detect the presence (binary classification) and severity (four-class classification) of depression and anxiety. We also train multimodal models that use all three modalities. Multimodal deep learning models detect the presence and severity of depression and anxiety with high balanced accuracy: 93.8% and 60.4% for depression, and  100% and 62.5% for anxiety. Additionally, we utilize a self-supervised, multi-modal pre-training scheme that jointly pre-trains audio, video, and text autoencoders to converge representations across the three modalities, followed by decoders that classify the patient into score buckets. Finally, we investigate model interpretability using saliency mapping to uncover specific behavioral markers, such as facial areas and emotionally valent words, that our models utilize in making estimations of depression or anxiety. Saliency mapping also illuminates specific questions out of the 11 total questions that provide the maximum signal to our text-based models. These results have both high-level technical and clinical significance. Technically, we suggest ways of conducting optimal representation learning in small data regimes by leveraging semantic alignment in data across several modalities. Clinically, we show the potential of an objective, automated tool for depression and anxiety screening that takes an average of three minutes per person to administer during casual conversations in clinical settings. Such a tool could be easily incorporated into current clinical workflows and facilitate low-cost, universal access to mental health care.

description: The Team at the Observatory of Padova (INAF) developed a stereo 3d reconstruction pipeline for the planetary images, by taking advantage of its know-how from the design, realization and calibration of the stereo camera STC on board the BepiColombo mission. The stereo cameras STC and CaSSIS are different in terms of optical design and stereo strategy, but they both apply the push-frame acquisition mode. In this context, an ad-hoc DTM generation software, called 3DPD, has been developed.This document describes the nowadays procedures for the internal use of the 3DPD software and the associated MATLAB tools finalized to: - update of the CaSSIS images and spice kernels - Read CaSSIS images data and projection matrices assembly - generate the stereo pair mosaic projects - generate the 3D models (DTMs) - update the OAPD Archive (https://cassis.oapd.inaf.it/archive/) All these procedures can be performed only by OAPD Workstations. Changes in the procedures will be documented in the next issues of this report.

description: As of 2021, abortion has been decriminalised, at least partially, in every Australian jurisdiction; however, barriers to accessing a lawful abortion remain. This article focuses on one of those barriers, namely conscientious objection to the provision of abortion services. It provides an in-depth legal analysis of the nature and scope of the obligations imposed by each Australian jurisdiction’s conscientious objection provision and considers how the framing of these provisions facilitate (such as through referral requirements), and in some cases compromise, access. It is argued that there is a case for law reform to address some of the inconsistency, legal gaps and uncertainty identified and that other regulatory strategies and tools can supplement the law to ensure compliance with legal obligations and minimise access issues.
The Ethics of Climate Change

description: This thesis examines the ethics of climate change and associated mitigation programs, motivated by the need for the world to not only make significant changes, but to consider who should drive such change and whether the actions undertaken are considered from an ethical perspective. This thesis by publication comprises two studies. The first is a systematic literature review of the ethics of climate change published in Accounting and Finance and the second is a qualitative study of the ethics of the Green New Deal, under review at the Journal of Accounting Literature. Climate change has impacted the world as we know it and will continue to do so unless radical steps are taken. These steps involve complex ethical decisions that will need to be made by leaders worldwide. The systematic literature review undertaken on the ethics of climate change from 1992 to 2020 reveals three key areas of research: the ethics of who bears the cost of climate change, market solutions, and geoengineering and non-market solutions. Emerging research areas relate to the ethics of population, displacement and resettlement, and leadership. This study reveals an intrinsic relationship between ethics and climate change that extends beyond a purely economic and emissions-based perspective. An ethical perspective must be utilised to ensure that any amelioration efforts are equitable and consider those at the margins, including those in developing nations. The second study builds on the findings of the first and attempts to understand the major ethical, equity, and leadership issues that may arise when governments plan massive infrastructure and amelioration programs such as the United States’ Green New Deal (GND). The methodology developed here could be applied to the plans being created in other developed countries such as Canada and Korea. A qualitative approach was used to analyse the ethical issues associated with the Green New Deal via semi-structured interviews with 34 published authors of academic articles dealing with the ethics of climate change and 2 industry participants. This study identifies three key themes arising from the proposed implementation of the Green New Deal. Firstly, the GND has the potential to present equity, justice, and ethical issues that must be considered as part of any intended adoption. Secondly, the GND will present opportunities for economic and climate success, but some groups may suffer due to its implementation. Thirdly, those that have the capacity, wealth, leadership, and ability should lead climate change initiatives. This may require market solutions in the short-term to reach 2050 net zero targets. This study is the first qualitative study undertaken on the Green New Deal, contributing to the development of the scant literature on this topic and also informing the practical implementation of wholesale infrastructure plans.

We show that the estimation of concentration functions at arguments of bounded size can be reduced to the estimation of these functions at arguments of size $O(\sqrt n)$ which is easier.
title: On the Fuel Spray Applications of Multi-Phase Eulerian CFD Techniques
Creators: name: Jacobsohn, Gabriel Lev
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2019

description: Eulerian-Eulerian Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques continue to show promise for characterizing the internal flow and near-field spray for various fuel injection systems. These regions are difficult to observe experimentally, and simulations of such regions are limited by computational expense or reliance on empiricism using other methods. The physics governing spray atomization are first introduced. Impinging jet sprays and Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) are selected as applications, and modern computational/experimental approaches to their study are reviewed. Two in-house CFD solvers are described and subsequently applied in several case studies. Accurate prediction of the liquid distribution in a like-doublet impinging jet spray is demonstrated via validation against X-Ray data. Turbulence modeling approaches are compared for GDI simulations with dynamic mesh motion, with results validated against previously available experimental data. A new model for turbulent mixing is discussed. Code performance is thoroughly tested, with new mesh motion techniques suggested to improve scaling. Finally, a new workflow is developed for incorporating X-Ray scanned geometries into moving-needle GDI simulations, with full-duration injection events successfully simulated for both sub-cooled and flash-boiling conditions.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: This document reports on the evaluation of Pilot 4. This includes a summary of research methods and corresponding data, which features the most significant insights for this pilot. Pilot 4 aimed to accelerate the uptake of AR in education by providing an authoring tool and learning management system to teachers: it also seeks to evaluate the state of development of the authoring tool and assess how it helps teachers in designing specific XR-enabled tasks and associated XR learning experiences that support their students to learn. Pilot 4 recruitment of teachers took place in May and June 2022 (M31 and M32). Teachers’ onboarding and training as well as the pre-experience data collection were carried out between June and July 2022 (M32 and M33). Pilot 4 deployment with teachers' usage of the MirageXR toolkit took place in July and August 2022 (M33 and M34), whereas the post- experience surveys and post-experience interviews were carried out between August and September 2022 (M34 and 35). In line with the ethical guidelines established by the External Ethics Advisory Board, prior to their selection, teachers were informed about the goal and scope of Pilot 4 via an information sheet (see Annex 1). In addition, participants were required to sign an ad-hoc consent form (see Annex 1) to be allowed to take part in the study. Pilot 4 data was collected from the pre-experience and post-experience surveys, as well as the interviews. Detailed information on ARETE Pilot 4 data flow and storage is included in Annex 2 (data flow diagram) as well as Annex 3 (Record of Processing Activities).

description: Broadcast routing has become an important research field for vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) recently. However, the packet delivery rate is generally low in existing VANET broadcast routing protocols. Therefore, the design of an appropriate broadcast protocol based on the features of VANET has become a crucial part of the development of VANET. This paper analyzes the disadvantage of existing broadcast routing protocols in VANETs, and proposes an improved algorithm (namely ODAM-C) based on the ODAM (Optimized Dissemination of Alarm Messages) protocol. The ODAM-C algorithm improves the packet delivery rate by two mechanisms based on the forwarding features of ODAM. The first distance-based mechanism reduces the possibility of packet loss by considering the angles between source nodes, forwarding nodes and receiving nodes. The second mechanism increases the redundancy of forwarding nodes to guarantee the packet success delivery ratio. We show by analysis and simulations that the proposed algorithm can improve packet delivery rate for vehicular networks compared against two widely-used existing protocols.

description: Статья подготовлена по материалам выступления авторов на международной научной конференции «Устойчивое развитие трансграничных регионов», которая проходила в Алтайском государственном университете 19-20 апреля 2019 г. Статья посвященаразвитию методики анализа уставного (акционерного) капитала корпоративной организации,с целью установления степени участия каждого акционера в деятельности соответствующего идентифицированного компонента бизнеса. Учитывая сложную структуру акционерного капитала, авторы приходят к выводу, что его анализ должен быть дополнен: ранжированием акционеров, модифицированными коэффициентами концентрации капитала и квадратичной формы, позволяющими установить доминирование собственников (акционеров), которые оказывают существенное влияние на менеджмент, игнорируя запросы и мнения других участников компонентов бизнеса, входящих в периметр консолидации.

description: Detailed spectral classifications are presented for 352 O-B0 stars in the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey, of which 213 O-type are of sufficient quality for further morphological analysis. Among them, six subcategories of special interest are distinguished. (1) Several new examples of the earliest spectral types O2-O3 have been found. (2) A group of extremely rapidly rotating main-sequence objects has been isolated, including the largest $v\sin i$ values known, the spatial and radial-velocity distributions of which suggest ejection from the two principal ionizing clusters. (3) Several new examples of the evolved, rapidly rotating Onfp class show similar evidence. (4) No fewer than 48 members of the Vz category, hypothesized to be on or near the ZAMS, are found in this sample; in contrast to the rapid rotators, they are strongly concentrated to the ionizing clusters, supporting their interpretation as very young objects, as do their relatively faint absolute magnitudes. (5) A surprisingly large fraction of the main-sequence spectra belong to the recently recognized V((fc)) class, with C III emission lines of similar strength to the usual N III in V((f)) spectra; there are also six objects with very high-quality data but no trace of either mission feature, presenting new challenges to physical interpretations. (6) Five spectra with morphologically enhanced nitrogen lines have been detected. Absolute visual magnitudes have been derived for each star with individual extinction laws, and composite HRDs provide evidence of the multiple generations present in this field. Associations with X-ray sources are noted. Further analyses of this unique dataset underway will provide new insights into the evolution of massive stars and starburst clusters.

description: Recently the creation of novel topological states of matter by a periodic driving field has attracted great attention. To motivate further experimental and theoretical studies, we investigate interesting aspects of Floquet bands and topological phase transitions in a continuously driven Harper model. In such a continuously driven system with an odd number of Floquet bands, the bands are found to have nonzero Chern numbers in general and topological phase transitions take place as we tune various system parameters, such as the amplitude or the period of the driving field. The nontrivial Floquet band topology results in a quantized transport of Wannier states in the lattice space. For certain parameter choices, very flat yet topologically nontrivial Floquet bands may also emerge, a feature that is potentially useful for the simulation of physics of strongly correlated systems. Some cases with an even number of Floquet bands may also have intriguing Dirac cones in the spectrum. Under open boundary conditions, anomalous counter-propagating chiral edge modes and degenerate zero modes are also found as the system parameters are tuned. These results should be of experimental interest because a continuously driven system is easier to realize than a periodically kicked system.

description: Electron vortex beams were only recently discovered and their potential as a probe for magnetism in materials was shown. Here we demonstrate a new method to produce electron vortex beams with a diameter of less than 1.2 Å. This unique way to prepare free electrons to a state resembling atomic orbitals is fascinating from a fundamental physics point of view and opens the road for magnetic mapping with atomic resolution in an electron microscope.
Noise properties in the ideal Kirchhoff-Law-Johnson-Noise secure communication system

description: In this paper we determine the noise properties needed for unconditional security for the ideal Kirchhoff-Law-Johnson-Noise (KLJN) secure key distribution system using simple statistical analysis. It has already been shown using physical laws that resistors and Johnson-like noise sources provide unconditional security. However real implementations use artificial noise generators, therefore it is a question if other kind of noise sources and resistor values could be used as well. We answer this question and in the same time we provide a theoretical basis to analyze real systems as well.
Context-based social trust relationship prediction

description: Social trust relationship prediction targets using attributes to quantify the interrelationships in trust between users, and this trust can be applied in both decision-making and product recommendation. Most of the existing algorithms do not consider the heterogeneity and the semantics of information included in online social networks, leading to low adaptability in capturing user preferences. What’s more, they only focus on directly connected nodes and treat all the information propagation paths equally, leading to the lack of structured context information. Given the incomplete graph structure on online social networks constructed by existing algorithms, they can hardly have good performance in the trust prediction. To solve the above-mentioned problems, we propose a novel Context-based Social Trust Relation Prediction (CSTRP) model, which can capture different features on both nodes and paths adaptively based on the complex contexts and take multi-hop neighbours into account. Specifically, in our model, we construct a heterogeneous graph of three kinds of nodes: User, Interest, and Relationship, as well as two different meta-paths: User-Interest-User, and User-Relative-User. Then, we adopt a two-level attention mechanism to obtain the attention value on both the node-level and path-level. To incorporate the multi-hop neighbours’ information, we develop a 2-hop attention diffusion to aggregate the information from the indirectly connected nodes. The experimental results on real-world datasets have demonstrated that CSTRP outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in terms of the accuracy of social trust prediction.
