K-Means Clustering with Local Distance Privacy by Mengmeng Yang, Longxia Huang, Chenghua Tang

“…Instead of making the users’ records in-distinguish from each other in high-dimensional space, we map the user’s record into a one-dimensional distance space and make the records in such a distance space not be distinguished from each other. …”

Usage of meta- Synthesis methodology in analyzing paradigm shifts based on spiritual urbanism approach by Farzaneh madani, Afson Mahdavi, mojtaba rafiyan, Fatemeh Mohammad Niae Qaraee

“…Social inequality, polarization, moral poverty, and a high prevalence of psychiatric disease are only part of the manifestation of the lack of attention to the issue of spirituality in the production of space. Indeed, the challenge of the contemporary city is the emergence of the process of personalization of space production and capitalization resulting from the dominance of the speculative model and its confrontation with identity and semantic structure. …”

First-principles based data-driven strain engineering for ferroelectrics via active machine learning: A nonlinear piezoelectric constitutive equation by Susumu MINAMI, Yasuaki MARUYAMA, Yoshimasa ABE, Tomohiro NAKAYAMA, Takahiro SHIMADA

“…However, it is extremely challenging to find out the best conditions of strain with unprecedented physical properties in the vast strain space consisting of six components. Here, we developed a technical framework that enables efficient exploration of physical properties in the vast strain space based on machine learning (i.e., artificial neural networks), active learning, and high-throughput first-principles calculation. …”

Parameter Estimation of the Photovoltaic System Using Bald Eagle Search (BES) Algorithm by Ndongmo Fotsa Nicaire, Perabi Ngoffe Steve, Ndjakomo Essiane Salome, Abessolo Ondoua Grégroire

“…This search is divided into three steps: in the first stage (space selection), the eagle selects the space with the largest number of prey; in the second stage (space search), the eagle moves into the selected space to search for prey; in the third stage (dive), the eagle swings from the best position identified in the second stage and determines the best point to hunt. …”

A fundamental special-relativistic theory valid for all real-valued speeds by Vedprakash Sewjathan

“…This paper constitutes a fundamental rederivation of special relativity based on the c-invariance postulate but independent of the assumption ds′2=±ds2 (Einstein [1], Kittel et al [2], Recami [3]), the equivalence principle, homogeneity of space-time, isotropy of space, group properties and linearity of space-time transformations or the coincidence of the origins of inertial space-time frames. …”

Characteristics of Pore-Throat in Tight Sandstones of the Jurassic Ahe Formation in the Northern Tarim Basin by Tong Lin, Cong Tan, Xing Zhang, Lei Zhao, Hongxing Wei, Lan Wang, Xin Nie, Xu Zeng

“…Quantitative analyses including RCMP (rate-controlled mercury penetration), HPMI (high-pressure mercury injection), NA (nitrogen adsorption), and routine and stress-dependent core analysis show that the peak of pores radius ranges from 125 μm to 150 μm, and the throat radius is in the range of 1 μm-4 μm. The throat space accounts for about 2/3 of the total space of the tight sandstones, which is the major storage space for natural gas. …”

“…Although adhesive arachnoiditis was observed at Th4-6, the recurrence of clinical symptoms was not observed at one year and a half after onset. Spinal subdural space is almost avascular; a hematoma in a subdural space is considered to come from a subarachnoid space when it is a lot. …”
