The Energy Crisis: Petroleum Depletion and the Path to Renewable Alternatives
type: item
description: Petroleum has long played a central role in the global energy system, supporting industrial development, transportation, and economic growth. However, in the context of rapid technological advancement, population growth, and accelerating industrialization, the depletion of petroleum resources has become an increasingly prominent challenge in the twenty-first century. As a non-renewable resource formed over geological timescales, petroleum faces inherent supply limitations that are further intensified by rising global demand, structural dependence on fossil fuels, and persistent supply constraints. At the same time, environmental pressures and economic uncertainties associated with excessive fossil fuel consumption have highlighted the unsustainability of the current energy model. Against this background, the transition toward renewable energy has emerged as an essential pathway for addressing energy security and long-term development needs. This paper examines the fundamental causes of the petroleum energy crisis, including growing demand driven by industrialization, resource concentration, and structural rigidity within existing energy systems. It further analyzes the urgency of shifting toward renewable energy alternatives and discusses the major challenges involved in this transformation, such as technological maturity, infrastructure adaptation, and policy coordination. By systematically exploring petroleum depletion and renewable energy transition within a unified analytical framework, this study aims to provide a clearer understanding of the necessity and feasibility of moving toward a more sustainable and resilient global energy structure.

This study investigates the strategic market entry challenges and opportunities for Dewpoint Technologies, an Australian startup possessing patented cool-roof paint with unique self-cleaning and passive water-collection properties. Through a qualitative case study methodology, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the competitive landscape in Chennai, India, benchmarking six incumbent firms using the BMC framework alongside financial data from public companies. Our analysis reveals that while Dewpoint's core cooling efficacy is comparable to competitors, its self-cleaning and water-harvesting capabilities constitute a defensible competitive advantage in a water-scarce context like Chennai. However, the startup lacks the manufacturing capacity, distribution networks, and market knowledge of established players. Consequently, we propose a phased market entry strategy centered on a dual approach of targeted niche marketing and strategic partnership. We identify the underserved public and educational building sectors as the primary niche and recommend a private-label manufacturing and distribution agreement with Solo Paints, a Chennai-based eco-friendly paint manufacturer, to mitigate risks and costs. The strategy further includes pursuing sustainability certifications, leveraging Indo-Australian research grants for initial funding, and adopting a premium pricing strategy justified by its differentiated value proposition. This study provides an empirically-grounded strategic framework for technology startups seeking to navigate entry into complex, competitive emerging markets, highlighting the critical interplay between leveraging unique capabilities, identifying unmet market needs, and forging strategic local …

Improving Automatic Essay Assessment Through Cosine Similarity Leveraging a Semantic Corpus
type: item
description: Automatic Essay Scoring (AES) represents an effective solution for facilitating automated evaluation of written essays by mitigating evaluator subjectivity and accelerating the assessment process. Nonetheless, a persistent challenge lies in achieving high accuracy due to limitations in semantic understanding. This study employs Cosine Similarity as a baseline approach and further integrates a semantic data corpus to enhance the representation of textual meaning. Empirical results demonstrate that relying solely on Cosine Similarity captures predominantly lexical-level similarities, yielding limited correlation with human scoring. The incorporation of a semantic corpus substantially improves the system’s capacity to recognize synonyms and linguistic variations, thereby enhancing the sensitivity and reliability of the scoring process. Despite these improvements, the findings underscore the necessity for further corpus refinement, evaluation on larger and more diverse datasets, and assessment using multiple correlation metrics. Overall, this study provides a substantive contribution to the development of AES systems that are more accurate, consistent, and closely aligned with human judgment, thereby advancing the field of automated educational assessment.

Attention-Based Multimodal Emotion Recognition for Fine-Grained Visual Ad Engagement Prediction on Instagram
type: item
description: This paper presents a novel Attention-Based Multimodal Framework (ABMF) for emotion recognition and fine-grained engagement prediction in Instagram advertisements. Traditional approaches to advertisement assessment rely primarily on unimodal analysis and fail to capture the nuanced relationship between emotional content and engagement behaviors. The proposed framework integrates visual, textual, and metadata features through cross-modal attention mechanisms that dynamically identify emotionally salient components across modalities. We construct and annotate the Instagram Advertisement Emotion Dataset (IAED) containing 10,000 sponsored posts with valence-arousal ratings and engagement metrics. Experimental results demonstrate that ABMF achieves significant improvements over state-of-the-art baselines, with 12.1% reduction in valence MAE and 7.1% improvement in engagement prediction MAP. The research reveals distinct relationships between emotional dimensions and specific engagement behaviors: high arousal content generates 78.6% higher share rates while positive valence drives 62.7% more likes compared to negative content. The findings provide quantifiable insights for optimizing emotional content in advertisements based on campaign objectives. The cross-modal attention mechanism enables precise identification of engagement-driving features, offering Instagram advertisers a computational approach to predict and enhance user engagement through targeted emotional content design.

type: item
description: People's demand for cars has been increasing in recent years, in response to the country's call to save non-renewable resources. The sustainable development goals promote the rapid development of the new energy automobile industry, which provides new opportunities for the auto parts industry. Chinese parts and components enterprises have insufficient competitiveness in the high-end product market, high labour costs in the low-end product market, weak strength and insufficient research and development capabilities, so to take a place in the competition of different product markets and gain a larger market share, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are an important way to learn about advanced productivity, market competitiveness and brand advantages. In this context, we evaluate the performance of the strategic behaviours of Zhongding's M&A of AMK in Germany, hoping that it can provide overseas M&A experience for domestic companies in the same industry. In this paper, we take the M&A of AMK as the research object, collate relevant literature at home and abroad, analyse the development trend of China's auto parts on the basis of the actual situation of both parties to the merger and acquisition, briefly analyse the motivation of the merger and acquisition and the process of the merger and acquisition, and combine the company's part of the financial indicators before and after the merger and acquisition, and use the method of financial and non-financial indicators to carry out a comprehensive analysis of the performance of M&A. Finally, the study concludes that the M&A has enlarged the operation scale of Zhongding, which has given the company a new growth point in revenue and further promoted the company's concept of diversified operation. However, the company's profitability did not reach the expected improvement, and the operating income and gross profit margin of air suspension system continued to decline. Due to the high production cost of air suspension system, it is un…

AI-Driven Computational Resource Optimization: A Hybrid Deep Reinforcement Learning Framework for Enhancing Large-Scale Model Efficiency
type: item
description: This paper presents an AI-driven approach to computational resource optimization aimed at enhancing efficiency and resource utilization in large-scale AI model training and inference processes. As AI models continue to grow exponentially in size, computational resource demands have increased dramatically, with studies indicating that resource utilization efficiency in large model training and deployment typically falls below 60%, resulting in significant cost waste and energy consumption. The proposed framework leverages reinforcement learning and predictive analytics techniques to implement intelligent resource allocation and task scheduling across di-verse hardware environments (GPUs, CPUs, specialized accelerators). The multi-layered architecture incorporates four core components: resource monitoring, workload prediction, adaptive scheduling, and dynamic optimization, capable of adjusting resource configurations dynamically based on workload characteristics and hardware capabilities. Experimental evaluation across 32 large-scale AI training and inference scenarios demonstrated an average 38.7% throughput improvement and 42.3% energy consumption reduction compared to traditional scheduling meth-odds. Field validation through four industry case studies further confirmed the practical value of this approach in financial services, e-commerce, healthcare, and industrial sectors, achieving an average 31.2% increase in resource utilization and 24.8% reduction in operational costs. Economic analysis indicates substantial return on investment (169% average over 6 months) through improved computational efficiency and reduced infrastructure expenses. These research findings have significant strategic implications for enhancing core competitiveness in high-performance computing and AI infrastructure, contributing to reduced dependency on third-party computational resources, accelerated AI innovation cycles, and advancement of green computing initiatives.

Skulls across Civilizations: A Comparative Study of Eastern and Western Imagery of Death in Literature and Art
type: item
description: The skull, as a universal symbol of mortality, has traversed time and culture to become a profound site of meaning in both Eastern and Western civilizations. This study offers a comprehensive comparative analysis of skull imagery across literature and visual art, tracing its philosophical, religious, and aesthetic evolutions from antiquity to the contemporary era. Drawing on Chinese Daoist, Buddhist, and Confucian thought, and juxtaposing these with Christian theology, Gothic literature, and European art history, the paper uncovers how each tradition approaches the existential dilemma of life and death through distinct symbolic systems. Eastern traditions often employ the skull as a medium of transcendence and natural harmony, while Western representations emphasize sin, vanity, and redemption. Through interdisciplinary analysis using literature review, iconography, and image interpretation, the paper reveals how the skull transforms from a symbol of horror into a cultural prism refracting human concerns with meaning, impermanence, and spiritual inquiry. Ultimately, despite cultural divergences, the skull serves as a shared metaphor for humanity's poetic and philosophical confrontation with mortality.

Research on User Retention Management for Content-Based Media Platforms in the Algorithmic Recommendation Era
type: item
description: Content-based media platforms, such as video streaming services and news applications, are confronted with fierce competition in user retention within the context of algorithmic recommendation dominance. While recommendation systems effectively enhance short-term user engagement, they often fall short in addressing long-term retention due to an over-reliance on clickstream data, a limitation that leads to the neglect of user psychological needs, dynamic changes in content quality, and the impact of social interactions. This study proposes a multimodal neural network framework designed to integrate heterogeneous data, including user behavior sequences (such as clicks and watch time), content semantic features (including text attributes and audio-visual characteristics), and social network interactions, for the purpose of predicting user retention and formulating personalized retention strategies. The framework adopts modality-specific encoders, where Transformer is used for temporal behavior data, CNN for content features, and GNN for social graphs, combined with cross-modal attention mechanisms to capture synergistic relationships such as the resonance between content and user interests. A multi-task learning objective is employed to simultaneously predict retention status (whether users remain active within 30 days) and time-to-churn, thereby enhancing practical applicability. Experimental validation based on a dataset from a video platform demonstrates that the proposed framework outperforms single-modality baseline models, with interpretability analyses identifying key factors driving retention, such as content diversity and the frequency of social engagement. This research advances user retention management by bridging behavioral analytics and user psychology, enabling content-based media platforms to reduce user churn through targeted interventions.

Optimizing Chronic Disease Self-Management Toolkit Design: A Comparative Analysis of Existing Intervention Models
type: item
description: Chronic diseases represent a leading global health challenge, accounting for over 70% of annual mortality worldwide. While digital self-management toolkits have emerged as pivotal interventions for improving patient outcomes, their effectiveness remains limited by heterogeneous user engagement patterns and fragmented design methodologies. This study addresses critical gaps in chronic disease management by conducting a systematic comparative analysis of existing intervention models across four major conditions: diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), hypertension, and heart failure. We propose a multidimensional evaluation framework examining six core components: educational content delivery, physiological monitoring mechanisms, feedback systems, social support integration, gamification elements, and clinician engagement levels. Through longitudinal assessment of 23 randomized controlled trials involving 12,834 participants, we identified three dominant toolkit archetypes with distinct performance characteristics. Our analysis demonstrates that models incorporating adaptive personalization algorithms and bidirectional clinician-patient communication channels significantly improved medication adherence and clinical biomarkers compared to standardized approaches. Furthermore, explainable artificial intelligence techniques revealed key design principles correlated with sustained engagement, including dynamic goal-setting interfaces and context-aware behavioral nudges. Validation experiments confirmed that optimized toolkits based on these principles reduced all-cause hospitalization rates by 23% during a 12-month implementation period. This research contributes to precision public health by establishing evidence-based architecture for next-generation self-management systems, ultimately bridging the gap between behavioral theory and scalable digital implementation.

Invisible Frontlines: Unregulated Human-Animal Interfaces and the Risk Architecture of Emerging Zoonoses
type: item
description: The increasing frequency of zoonotic disease outbreaks underscores the critical role of human-animal interfaces in pathogen spillover. Despite advances in biomedical research, many high-risk interactions remain unregulated, creating gaps in global health security. This paper examines the socio-behavioral and ecological drivers of zoonotic emergence, focusing on unregulated practices such as wildlife trade, intensive farming, and habitat encroachment. By analyzing these interfaces, the study aims to identify systemic vulnerabilities in current zoonotic risk management frameworks and propose actionable policy interventions. The research employs a qualitative content analysis of peer-reviewed literature, institutional reports, and case studies to map the risk architecture of emerging zoonoses. Key findings reveal that cultural practices, economic incentives, and weak governance perpetuate high-risk human-animal interactions. Case studies of recent zoonotic outbreaks, including highly pathogenic viruses, illustrate how unregulated interfaces facilitate cross-species transmission, while existing policies often fail to address underlying socio-economic drivers. The study contributes to the One Health discourse by emphasizing the need for integrated, behavior-centered approaches to zoonotic prevention. It recommends stricter wildlife trade regulations, community-based education programs, and enhanced cross-sectoral collaboration to mitigate spillover risks. By integrating ecological, socio-behavioral, and governance dimensions, the study advances a multidimensional framework for zoonotic risk reduction, emphasizing anticipatory policy design and cross-sectoral coordination as critical complements to biomedical containment strategies.

Retracted: Research on Intelligent Keyframe In-Betweening Technology for Character Animation Based on Generative Adversarial Networks
type: item
description: Character animation production faces significant efficiency challenges due to labor-intensive keyframe interpolation processes that require extensive manual intervention. This paper presents a novel intelligent keyframe in-betweening technology based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) to automate intermediate frame generation while preserving character consistency and motion quality. The proposed framework incorporates a multi-scale temporal feature extraction mechanism that captures complex motion patterns through residual connections and attention-based aggregation. An improved GAN architecture employs dual-path processing streams combining spatial and temporal information, enhanced with spectral normalization and adaptive instance normalization for stable training dynamics. The character consistency preservation algorithm integrates deep feature matching with geometric constraint enforcement to maintain visual coherence across generated sequences. Experimental validation on a comprehensive dataset of 55,000 animation sequences demonstrates superior performance with SSIM scores reaching 0.923 and temporal consistency measures achieving 0.856, representing substantial improvements over existing methodologies. User studies involving 165 participants confirm practical applicability, with professional animators rating the generated sequences at 4.19/5.00 for overall quality. The technology enables significant productivity gains in animation production workflows, achieving 30-45% cost reductions while maintaining professional quality standards, making high-quality animation more accessible across diverse commercial applications.

Multi-Domain Adaptation for Autonomous Driving Perception under Diverse Weather
type: item
description: Autonomous driving perception systems are confronted with substantial robustness challenges under diverse weather conditions, where sensor data distortion caused by rain, fog, snow, or intense illumination often leads to degraded performance in critical tasks such as object detection and semantic segmentation. Existing approaches predominantly depend on single-domain models trained under ideal environmental conditions, which suffer from poor generalization across weather domains due to inherent domain shifts. This study explores the application of multi-domain adaptation techniques to enhance perception stability by integrating heterogeneous sensor data, including RGB (Red, Green, Blue) images, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) point clouds, and thermal imaging, while leveraging cross-domain feature alignment mechanisms. The proposed framework employs domain-specific encoders combined with adversarial learning to mitigate weather-induced domain gaps, alongside a multi-task learning objective that simultaneously optimizes perception accuracy and domain invariance. Experimental validation demonstrates that the framework achieves superior performance compared to conventional single-domain and shallow adaptation models, with interpretability analyses revealing key weather-robust features such as thermal edge consistency and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) point density patterns. Its ability to adapt to unseen weather conditions could enable reliable autonomous driving in complex real-world environments and reduce weather-related accidents. By bridging domain adaptation theory with automotive perception requirements, this work advances the translation of robust AI (Artificial Intelligence)-driven systems into practical autonomous driving applications.

Remembering the City: Trauma and Modernity in Hong Kong Literature
type: item
description: This paper examines how contemporary Hong Kong literature engages with the city as a site of trauma, memory, and modernity. Drawing on trauma theory (Caruth, LaCapra), urban modernity (Jameson, Harvey), and memory studies (Nora), the study analyzes how literary texts reconstruct the urban space of Hong Kong as a repository of historical rupture and cultural displacement. Focusing on Dung Kai-cheung's Atlas: The Archaeology of an Imaginary City, the paper argues that fiction operates as a counter-archive, preserving what is threatened by societal changes, colonial erasure, and capitalist urban redevelopment. The city, as rendered in literature, emerges not as a stable setting but as a fragmented, haunted, and continually re-imagined space. Through symbolic reconstruction and narrative estrangement, Hong Kong writers articulate a form of literary remembrance that resists forgetting and reclaims agency in the face of spatial and temporal disorientation. The paper contributes to ongoing conversations about postcolonial identity, cultural memory, and the politics of place in Sinophone literature.
