Cross-domain recommendation in MOOCs: A graph capsule network approach with transfer learning by Lian Yuanfeng, Zhuang Yongqi

“…However, current approaches predominantly focus on single-domain recommendations, lacking effective mechanisms to address critical challenges including sparse cross-domain user's overlap, dynamic preference modeling, and heterogeneous data integration. To address these limitations, we propose a novel cross-domain recommendation model integrating graph capsule networks with knowledge-aware transfer learning. …”

Ant responses in a lycaenid–ant symbiosis are not facilitated by cuticular compounds alone by Dany S. Zemeitat, Marianne Coquilleau, Naomi E. Pierce, Mark A. Elgar

“…Nevertheless, we also show experimentally that while workers paid more attention to fourth than second instar larvae, they did not respond more aggressively to larvae that had been tended by non-nestmate versus nestmate workers. These data suggest that workers pay attention to other signals, perhaps via tactile, visual or vibratory sensory modalities, thereby allowing the butterfly myrmecophiles to mitigate the risks associated with the chemically mediated colony-specific recognition systems of their ant hosts.…”
