description: Conductive hydrogel has received extensive attention in the design and application of flexible electronic equipment, due to its flexibility, easy processing, good sensitivity and excellent electrochemical performance. In this study, we designed a stretchable conductive and temperature-sensitive dual-network nanocomposite hydrogel in a simple one-pot method. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the nanocomposite hydrogel. The formation of the double cross-linked network greatly improves the mechanical properties of the nanocomposite hydrogel, and continuous electron transport path formed by MWCNTs dispersed in a hydrogel network endows the nanocomposite hydrogel great conductive behavior and the hydrogel exhibited a stable relative resistance change during the tensile deformation process. The nanocomposite hydrogel displayed great application potential in wearable devices, smart robots, and flexible strain sensors.

description: In this paper, we consider concave continuous-kernel games characterized by monotonicity properties and propose discounted mirror descent-type dynamics. We introduce two classes of dynamics whereby the associated mirror map is constructed based on a strongly convex or a Legendre regularizer. Depending on the properties of the regularizer we show that these new dynamics can converge asymptotically in concave games with monotone (negative) pseudo-gradient. Furthermore, we show that when the regularizer enjoys strong convexity, the resulting dynamics can converge even in games with hypo-monotone (negative) pseudo-gradient, which corresponds to a shortage of monotonicity.

Aligning herders with society for wildfire prevention: economic incentives and collective action

description: The present study explores the economic nature and property rights related to the provision of forest fire prevention. Fire protection is consumed collectively and can be co-produced by beneficiaries. Hence, we test features that may facilitate agents’ coordination in the emergence of decentralized solutions, and the role economic incentives and government intervention may have for a successful low risk maintenance. A review of scholar literature on common-pool resources and public goods allow for distinguish forest-related problems in the Mediterranean and establish the framework for analysing facilitating factors for collective action. Several case studies have been assessed in this frame, namely: public contracts with shepherds, public grants for herders and voluntary agreements private forest owners-herders, always with the purpose of lowering biomass in fuel breaks for fire prevention. Accumulation of shrub biomass in forests is a relatively recent phenomenon, what may preclude for successful, spontaneous self-management solutions. Government involvement is present in all cases in different degrees and is justified by the conservation of forest externalities to society at large. Results show that external (usually government) support is required for catalyzing agreements and covering start-up expenses. There is a large expectation in this pastoral approach, seen as potentially more financially sustainable that traditional mechanical interventions, given the reduced costs for the administration while it also provides a marketable product. Secondary benefits accrue: an innovation in the social role of herders, incentives for indigenous cattle races conservation and better coordination between departments. Compensation payments are seen as a deserved reward for the effort incurred by herders due to grazing in less attractive areas for their business. Private owners agreements with herders are more likely to take place in areas with previous experiences of cooperation, high risk perception and with potential grant for herders. Normative measures that oblige the direct beneficiaries to take care of their own fire prevention may also induce to similar programmes. In general, society is still unaware about these initiatives.

description: This letter proposes a modified non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA) scheme for systems with a multi-antenna base station (BS) and two single-antenna users, where NOMA transmissions are conducted only when the absolute correlation coefficient (CC) between the user channels exceeds a threshold and the BS uses matched-filter (MF) precoding along the user with the stronger average channel gain. We derive the average minimal transmit power to guarantee the signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) levels of both users. Our results show that the average minimal power grows logarithmically in the reciprocal of the CC threshold and a non-zero threshold is necessary for the modified NOMA scheme to have finite average minimal transmit power. Further, for the massive MIMO scenario, we derive the scaling laws of the average transmit power and outage probability with respect to the antenna numbers, as well as their tradeoff law. Simulation results are shown to validate our theoretical results.

description: In 2030, we are going to evidence the 6G mobile communication technology, which will enable the Internet of Everything. Yet 5G has to be experienced by people worldwide and B5G has to be developed; the researchers have already started planning, visioning, and gathering requirements of the 6G. Moreover, many countries have already initiated the research on 6G. 6G promises connecting every smart device to the Internet from smartphone to intelligent vehicles. 6G will provide sophisticated and high QoS such as holographic communication, augmented reality/virtual reality and many more. Also, it will focus on Quality of Experience (QoE) to provide rich experiences from 6G technology. Notably, it is very important to vision the issues and challenges of 6G technology, otherwise, promises may not be delivered on time. The requirements of 6G poses new challenges to the research community. To achieve desired parameters of 6G, researchers are exploring various alternatives. Hence, there are diverse research challenges to envision, from devices to softwarization. Therefore, in this article, we discuss the future issues and challenges to be faced by the 6G technology. We have discussed issues and challenges from every aspect from hardware to the enabling technologies which will be utilized by 6G.

description: Objectives: This article focuses on the effect of road lighting on road safety at accesses to quantitatively analyze the relationship between road lighting and road safety. Methods: An artificial neural network (ANN) was applied in this study. This method is one of the most popular machine learning methods and does not require any predefined assumptions. This method was applied using field data collected from 10 road segments in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China. Results: The results show that the impact of road lighting on road safety at accesses is significant. In addition, road lighting has a greater influence when vehicle speeds are higher or the number of lanes is greater. A threshold illuminance was also found, and the results show that the safety level at accesses will become stable when reaching this value. Conclusions: Improved illuminance can decrease the speed variation among vehicles and improve safety levels. In addition, high-grade roads need better illuminance at accesses. A threshold value can also be obtained based on related variables and used to develop scientific guidelines for traffic management organizations.

description: With the popularity and development of the wearable devices such as smartphones, human activity recognition (HAR) based on sensors has become as a key research area in human computer interaction and ubiquitous computing. The emergence of deep learning leads to a recent shift in the research of HAR, which requires massive strictly labeled data. In comparison with video data, activity data recorded from accelerometer or gyroscope is often more difficult to interpret and segment. Recently, several attention mechanisms are proposed to handle the weakly labeled human activity data, which do not require accurate data annotation. However, these attention-based models can only handle the weakly labeled dataset whose sample includes one target activity, as a result it limits efficiency and practicality. In the paper, we propose a recurrent attention networks (RAN) to handle sequential weakly labeled multi-activity recognition and location tasks. The model can repeatedly perform steps of attention on multiple activities of one sample and each step is corresponding to the current focused activity. The effectiveness of the RAN model is validated on a collected sequential weakly labeled multi-activity dataset and the other two public datasets. The experiment results show that our RAN model can simultaneously infer multi-activity types from the coarse-grained sequential weak labels and determine specific locations of every target activity with only knowledge of which types of activities contained in the long sequence. It will greatly reduce the burden of manual labeling. The code of our work is available at https://github.com/KennCoder7/RAN.

description: Single image super-resolution (SISR), as a traditional ill-conditioned inverse problem, has been greatly revitalized by the recent development of convolutional neural networks (CNN). These CNN-based methods generally map a low-resolution image to its corresponding high-resolution version with sophisticated network structures and loss functions, showing impressive performances. This paper provides a new insight on conventional SISR algorithm, and proposes a substantially different approach relying on the iterative optimization. A novel iterative super-resolution network (ISRN) is proposed on top of the iterative optimization. We first analyze the observation model of image SR problem, inspiring a feasible solution by mimicking and fusing each iteration in a more general and efficient manner. Considering the drawbacks of batch normalization, we propose a feature normalization (F-Norm, FN) method to regulate the features in network. Furthermore, a novel block with FN is developed to improve the network representation, termed as FNB. Residual-in-residual structure is proposed to form a very deep network, which groups FNBs with a long skip connection for better information delivery and stabling the training phase. Extensive experimental results on testing benchmarks with bicubic (BI) degradation show our ISRN can not only recover more structural information, but also achieve competitive or better PSNR/SSIM results with much fewer parameters compared to other works. Besides BI, we simulate the real-world degradation with blur-downscale (BD) and downscale-noise (DN). ISRN and its extension ISRN+ both achieve better performance than others with BD and DN degradation models.

description: UK researchers have made major contributions to the technical ideas underpinning formal approaches to the specification and development of computer systems. Perhaps as a consequence of this, some of the significant attempts to deploy theoretical ideas into practical environments have taken place in the UK. The authors of this paper have been involved in formal methods for many years and both have tracked a significant proportion of the whole story. This paper both lists key ideas and indicates where attempts were made to use the ideas in practice. Not all of these deployment stories have been a complete success and an attempt is made to tease out lessons that influence the probability of long-term impact.

description: The study was a randomly-sampling based survey of 165 respondents living in three suburbs of Abokobi – low-income, middle-income and high-income areas. It was undertaken to identify the types of solid wastes generated by householders, ascertain the solid waste management practices of households, assess the level knowledge of households with regards to the various methods for converting solid wastes into resources for their benefit, and assess the current practices of converting solid waste into resources. The study further assessed the acceptability of new waste disposal methods and established the factors influencing the levels of income currently earned through conversion of solid wastes into resources. The results indicated that 12 different types of solid wastes were generated by householders with food and plastic wastes being the dominant ones. The most popular methods of disposal of solid wastes were dumping of such wastes into public containers and burning the wastes around the home; these two methods were especially favoured by people living in the low-income and middle-income suburbs. Waste collection services offered by companies was also a major disposal method used by slightly over one-third of households, especially those living in the high-income suburb. Respondents generally had a low level of knowledge concerning the methods available for converting solid wastes into resources. However, given the right information and conditions, more than 90% of the respondents were willing to accept the alternative methods of converting waste into a resource such as waste reduction, reuse, recycling and composting. It was established that older women aged over 50 earned more money from collecting household plastic wastes than other groups of people.

description: The task of redescription mining explores ways to re-describe different subsets of entities contained in a dataset and to reveal non-trivial associations between different subsets of attributes, called views. This interesting and challenging task is encountered in different scientific fields, and is addressed by a number of approaches that obtain redescriptions and allow for the exploration and analyses of attribute associations. The main limitation of existing approaches to this task is their inability to use more than two views. Our work alleviates this drawback. We present a memory efficient, extensible multi-view redescription mining framework that can be used to relate multiple, i.e. more than two views, disjoint sets of attributes describing one set of entities. The framework can use any multi-target regression or multi-label classification algorithm, with models that can be represented as sets of rules, to generate redescriptions. Multi-view redescriptions are built using incremental view-extending heuristic from initially created two-view redescriptions. In this work, we use different types of Predictive Clustering trees algorithms (regular, extra, with random output selection) and the Random Forest thereof in order to improve the quality of final redescription sets and/or execution time needed to generate them. We provide multiple performance analyses of the proposed framework and compare it against the naive approach to multi-view redescription mining. We demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed multi-view extension on several datasets, including a use-case on understanding of machine learning models - a topic of growing importance in machine learning and artificial intelligence in general.

description: Recent evidence suggests that the Eifel Volcanic Fields (EVF) make measurable contributions to the surface deformation in GPS networks, but quantitative assessments of displacement time series and their impacts on long-term rates are lacking. The GPS sites in the EVF indicate anomalously slow uplift (up to 1 mm/yr) which stays at the limit of GPS sensitivity and noise level for monitoring crustal deformation in geophysical applications. Since the primary aim of existing geodetic GNSS networks in west Germany is positioning service for land survey engineering and transportation applications, many sites have been installed on inexpensive and non-geodetic monuments, thus highly vulnerable to disturbances resulting from monument instability and near-field multipath sources. These potential pitfalls have not been fully addressed in previous studies. Here, we reprocess all available GNSS observations (combined GPS and GLONASS observations) using precise point positioning technique and present precise analysis of displacement time series to generate reliable long-term rates and uncertainties. Individual time series is examined to determine local motion, non-linear deformation due to regional and local hydrology and site-specific noise.

description: Detrital zircon (DZ) U-Pb geochronology is widely applied in the geosciences to address a very wide range of questions. However, zircon is refractory and discrimination of first- versus multi-cycle origin is challenging which blurs source-to-sink relationships. We performed DZ U-Pb geochronology of modern sediments in fluvial and littoral environments on the Scott Coastal Plain in Western Australia. Principal age modes are at c. 730-500 Ma and c. 1100-880 Ma (Pinjarra Orogen), c. 1240-1120 Ma and c. 1700-1600 Ma (Albany-Fraser-Wilkes Orogen), and c. 2710-2580 Ma (Yilgarn Craton), corresponding to ultimate derivation from local crystalline basement rocks. The DZ U-Pb age spectra show a mismatch to the areal extent of source rocks in the catchment area. Here, we propose the application of a novel approach – source-normalized α-dose – to quantify active time of DZ grains in the sedimentary system and thus identify sedimentary recycling of DZ. This metric compares the α-dose (a measure of metamictization using U and Th content) of DZ and the values of crystals from their source crystalline basement. We show that source-normalized α-dose records the selective removal of labile (high α-dose) grains and is able to discriminate (i) first-cycle and (ii) multi-cycle DZ populations that experienced progressive sedimentary recycling and/or transport. Source-normalized α-dose provides an internal measure to address sedimentary recycling of DZ, i.e., it does not necessitate comparison with other mineral systems. Consequently, this tool aids in the identification of first- and multi-cycle DZ origin and ultimately strengthens source-to-sink correlations improving interpretation of DZ grain histories.
