  • Tide Level Prediction in Victoria Harbour Based on a VMD-CNN-GRU Combined Model

    Subjects: Geosciences >> Marine Sciences Subjects: Mathematics >> Modeling and Simulation submitted time 2024-06-27

    Abstract: This study aims to accurately predict the tidal water level height in specific port areas by incorporating meteorological and hydrological factors. We propose a combined prediction model based on Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU). Using the public API interface of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, we collected continuous meteorological and hydrological data from observation points around Victoria Harbour for 12,768 hours from 2023 to 2024. VMD is employed to decompose the original tidal water level time series into multiple sub-modes to reduce sequence complexity. CNN is used to extract features from multi-dimensional historical data, and GRU is utilized to capture the temporal relationships of the features. Compared to traditional time series prediction models such as LSTM, our model shows an average improvement of 64.54 % and 52.40 % in R² and Spearman correlation coefficient, respectively, on the prediction set. RMSE and RAE are reduced by an average of 40.56 % and 32.83 %, respectively, indicating high prediction accuracy. Additionally, the model demonstrates strong robustness through sensitivity analysis. The model also supports flexible adjustment of prediction steps, making it suitable for both long-term and short-term predictions. This provides a reasonable and reliable solution for intelligent monitoring and early warning of tidal water levels in the Greater Bay Area.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance This study aims to critically analyze the social philosophical roots of the digital intelligence divide from the perspective of machine functionalism. By uncovering the theoretical origins and generation pathways of the digital intelligence divide, countermeasures can be proposed. The research contributes to understanding the divide’s impact on society and provides insights for promoting inclusive development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. The study fills a gap in the literature by linking machine functionalism to the digital intelligence divide and offers a novel perspective on addressing the unequal use of AI technology. The findings have significant implications for policymakers, technology developers, and researchers in the fields of AI ethics, digital inequality, and social philosophy. Method/Process Using the theoretical lens of machine functionalism, this study examines the evolutionary pathways, generation mechanisms, and multiple risks of the digital intelligence divide. It draws on relevant theories, such as the extended mind thesis and the theory of technological determinism, to analyze how machine functionalism influences the design and application of AI technology. The study also draws on empirical evidence from case studies and surveys to illustrate the manifestation of the digital intelligence divide in different contexts. By synthesizing theoretical and empirical insights, the research proposes interventions that address the divide at different levels, from the philosophical underpinnings to the practical implementation of AI technology. Results/Conclusions The study shows that machine functionalism, which applies Turing machine principles to explain the mind and views the mind as a physically realized Turing machine. It has become the social philosophical foundation of AI technology. While breaking with the traditional biological essentialist view of the mind, machine functionalism inadvertently creates inequitable uses of AI through three main pathways: the mechanization of the mind, designer bias and algorithmic preference, and technological specialization and barriers to entry. This creates the digital intelligence divide and risks such as the evolution of information access inequality into social inequality and the weakening of information cocoons and public dialogue. The study argues that interventions are needed to mitigate these risks and promote a more equitable distribution of the benefits of AI technology. To bridge the digital intelligence divide, the study suggests a multi-pronged approach. First, future efforts should focus on promoting positive interaction between machines and humans through value-sensitive design, which incorporates ethical considerations into the development and deployment of AI systems. Second, developing ethical algorithms that eliminate designer bias and algorithmic preference is critical to ensuring fair and unbiased AI decision-making. Third, improving the digital intelligence skills of individuals and communities can help break down barriers to entry caused by technological specialization and enable more people to benefit from AI technology. Together, these policies can help break down the barriers of unequal technology use under machine functionalism. The study concludes by emphasizing the importance of a collaborative effort among policymakers, technology developers, researchers, and the public in addressing the digital intelligence divide. It calls for further research on the social implications of machine functionalism and the development of inclusive AI governance frameworks. The findings of this study serve as a foundation for future work to mitigate the risks of the digital intelligence divide and promote the responsible and equitable development of AI technology.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance Breeding 4.0, characterized by biotechnology + artificial intelligence + big data information technology, has brought new requirements for the digital management and intelligent utilization of germplasm resources. In order to meet the diverse support needs for knowledge service forms under an intelligent background, this article aims to propose an effective method for knowledge organization and deep semantic association. This is essential to address the inconveniences that discrete germplasm resource data bring to researchers when collaborating across regions and institutions. Therefore, the article presents a method that integrates fragmented domain data into a systematic knowledge system, which is particularly important. Method/Process By analyzing the domain data descriptions and the current organizational status, the ontology construction was performed using the seven-step method developed by Stanford University Hospital. First, existing ontologies such as the Crop Ontology, Gene Ontology, and Darwin Core were referenced and reused, and then integrated with the knowledge framework from the Technical Specifications for Crop Germplasm Resources series and example datasets. Consequently, an ontology model was successfully constructed, which covers five major categories of crops: cereals, cash crops, vegetables, fruit trees, and forage and green manure crops. This model defines 11 core classes including phenotypes and genotypes, as well as identification methods and evaluation standards, along with 10 object properties and 56 data properties. Results/Conclusions Based on the ontology model, the article proposes a methodology for constructing a knowledge graph of crop germplasm resources. Using rice as an example, a domain-specific fine-grained knowledge graph is developed to facilitate semantic association and querying across multiple knowledge dimensions. The article also outlines prospective designs for new intelligent knowledge service scenarios driven by the knowledge graph, such as intelligent question and answer and knowledge computation, aiming to meet the knowledge service needs of researchers, breeding companies, and the general public. This is intended to provide more accurate and efficient support for computational breeding efforts. Currently, the research focuses only on rice as an example of a cereal crop, with economic crops, vegetables, and other types of crop germplasm resources not yet included in the study. Future work will expand the scope of the study and add new classes and properties specific to different germplasm resources to better address the diverse and personalized knowledge needs of users in the eraa of big data. This approach aims to promote the contextualization, ubiquity, and intelligence of knowledge services, and to further integrate them into different academic disciplines related to the development of new quality digital productivity.

  • Impact of User Heterogeneity on Knowledge Collaboration Effectiveness from a Network Structure Perspective

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance In the context of the digital age, knowledge collaboration platforms such as online Q&A communities, academic forums, and various professional networking platforms have become important venues for knowledge sharing and collective wisdom. These platforms bring together users from different fields, with diverse professional backgrounds and levels of expertise. They actively engage in problem solving, exchange views, and form complex and dynamic social networks. Online knowledge collaboration platforms not only enhance the accessibility of knowledge but also serve as incubators for interdisciplinary communication, problem solving, and innovative thinking by harnessing the collective wisdom and expertise of individuals. This article explores how to optimize the network structure of online knowledge collaboration platforms and balance the internal knowledge and expertise within teams. The goal is to promote cross-domain information flow, prevent the formation of information silos, and promote the creation, dissemination, and application of knowledge through collective knowledge collaboration. Methods/Process Due to the diversity of participants’ backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints, effectively managing and coordinating this heterogeneity becomes a critical issue. Additionally, the quality and efficiency of knowledge collaboration is also influenced by the characteristics of the network structure, such as the flow of information paths, the role of key nodes, and the interaction patterns of small groups. This study is based on actual data from Stack Overflow, the world’s largest programming Q&A website. It focuses specifically on the following aspects of influence: clustering coefficient, node centrality, edge span, user knowledge heterogeneity, and user experience heterogeneity. By constructing a negative binomial regression model, the study investigates how network structure characteristics and team user heterogeneity affect the quality and efficiency of knowledge collaboration. Results/Conclusions The results show that, with respect to network structural characteristics, node centrality significantly improves the quality and efficiency of collaboration, and higher aggregation coefficients and larger span of connecting edges restrict information flow and are detrimental to the efficiency of knowledge collaboration. In terms of user heterogeneity, high heterogeneity in knowledge background and registration duration usually hinders collaboration, heterogeneity in experience heterogeneity in registration duration negatively affects collaboration effectiveness in both cases, heterogeneity in response acceptance rate only negatively affects collaboration quality, while heterogeneity in activity intensity positively affects it. In addition, this study still has shortcomings that deserve further exploration. First, future research could consider expanding the sample to include more questions on different topics and domains to increase the reliability and generalizability of the findings. Second, future research could focus on the dynamic changes of network structure and heterogeneity in order to better understand the impact of network structure on knowledge collaboration and to improve the prediction ability of collaboration effects; it could explore more deeply how different types of heterogeneity affect collaboration dynamics over time.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance The new quality productivity advancing AI technology, especially exemplified by large language models (LLMs), is rapidly updating and attracting wide attention. In order to accelerate the implementation of AI technologies, it is urgent for advanced AI technologies to acquire support from knowledge resources in scientific and technological (S & T) information and libraries. Meanwhile, S & T information provides significant potential service scenarios for the application of AI technologies such as LLMs. This study aims to explore and design the method and path for constructing AI-ready data resources in the field of S & T information, and proposes a comprehensive and operable construction model that adapts to the new technical environment of AI, thereby facilitating comprehensive readiness in the field of intelligence. Method/Process This study first focuses on the concept and development status of AI-ready construction, and examines the development of AI-ready construction at home and abroad from three aspects: governments, enterprises and research institutions. The survey shows that the application of artificial intelligence has been highly valued by various fields of scientific research and production. However, the groundwork and preparation for AI applications are still relatively lagging behind, and AI tools cannot be fully implemented in key application scenarios due to the lack of high-quality and refined data resources. Based on the research results, the study made a preliminary definition of AI-ready construction, that is, we defined AI-ready construction as: the various development and improvement actions to adapt the object to the AI technical environment and promote the long-term benefits. The research then focuses on the field of S & T information, and systematically discusses and designs the AI-ready construction mode in the field of S & T information from six aspects: connotation category, construction angle, construction object, construction principle, control dimension and types of construction mode. Results/Conclusions The construction of AI-ready S & T information resources is a comprehensive and multi-angle transformation and upgrading process, which is located between the knowledge resource end and the intelligence application end. It is carried out in four aspects, including standards, methods, tools and platforms. The main content of the construction includes channels of AI technology, data transformation, data resources, and data management. At the same time, the construction is comprehensively controlled by six principles and four control dimensions. Besides, this study proposes the way of the practi cal construction of AI-ready S & T data resources, including the construction of intelligent data systems, and the construction of integrated platforms for the whole life cycle of S&T information data. The path reflects the process of the variation of knowledge resources from diversification to organization and then to integration, which not only serves the scientific information field itself, but also provides more intelligent, convenient, rich and powerful S&T information support for various fields. In the future, it is hoped that further research can delve into more micro and practical aspects, review the specific characteristics of different AI technologies, and provide more detailed suggestions for specific application scenarios at the operational level, providing a solid guarantee for scientific research institutions to achieve the leading strategic position in research and development.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance Research on the governance system and policy of data elements circulation is an important issue to be solved in the field of data governance in China at present, and research on the policy formulation and governance system of its circulation plays an important role in grasping the security of data circulation in China and promoting the market-oriented allocation of data elements. Method/Process First, this study is based on the reality of China’s data factor market security and trustworthy, autonomous and controllable requirements. Based on the analysis of the security risk of data circulation, we put forward the data factor market risk governance countermeasures of the security-fairness-efficiency triangular structure. Then, based on the three-level system and five-dimensional standards of data factor market governance, we put forward the method of docking the security governance with the trusted ecosystem and the international data governance rule system for cross-border data flow, and constructed a governance system with Chinese characteristics for the national unified data factor market. Results/Conclusions Facing the security risks in data sovereignty, data market and data circulation, we should identify and monitor data sovereignty disputes and the operation situation of the circulation market, and establish a multi-party cooperative and joint governance model led by the government, operated by the platform owner, the main body of the enterprise and the participation of users. When assessing the market for data elements, a mixed assessment approach should be adopted, combining qualitative and quantitative aspects, combining expert opinion with objective data, and comparing objectives with results. For different types of data, the control boundaries and scope of use should be clarified in a hierarchical manner, and data ownership, use and income should be clarified; at the same time, a confirmation platform of data rights should be established to audit and register and certify the data service subject, data circulation process, and data circulation rules so as to ensure that the normative nature of data circulation is maintained.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance With the popularization of artificial intelligence technology, the cost of information fog has decreased, and its negative impact on national security is becoming increasingly apparent. Information fog not only creates cognitive barriers for users, but also poses serious challenges to various fields such as politics, economy, and society. This article explores the prevention and control of information fog from the perspective of the overall national security concept, with the aim of addressing the risks and challenges posed by information fog. There is a lack of research in the literature on the prevention and control of information fog from the perspective of overall national security. To fill the gap, this article not only provides a new perspective and strategy for the prevention and control of information fog, enriching the connotation of national security research, but also promotes the cross-integration of information security and national security disciplines, providing new theoretical support for research in related fields. It provides reference and guidance to relevant entities such as the government and online platforms in preventing and controlling information fog. Method/Process Based on the concept of overall national security, this article summarizes the academic achievements on information fog at home and abroad, including research on stages, scenario applications, governance strategies, and practical case analysis. We summarize the characteristics of information fog and analyze the methods and strategies for prevention and control. Results/Conclusions Information fog has the characteristics of wide dissemination, realistic experience, and difficulty in identification. Based on this feature, the article puts forward the following suggestions to strengthen the improvement of legal policies and clarify the division of responsibilities: 1) to strengthen the evaluation and risk warning of online accounts and utilize technology to update anti-counterfeiting tools and improve information authentication capabilities. Governments should intervene in a timely manner to prevent the information fog from escalating. 2) to improve public awareness of discrimination and the level of prevention. In addition, the article also has some shortcomings. First, it does not present other forms of information fog in the security domain. Second, it does not analyze information fog from an algorithmic perspective. Therefore, in future research, we will closely follow the development of society to analyze the characteristics and presentation methods of information fog in various security fields. At the same time, scholars in the fields of computer science, intelligence science, and national security are also invited to conduct in-depth analysis of information fog from the perspective of computer algorithms, in order to propose practical countermeasures and suggestions for preventing and managing information fog from a technological perspective.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance This paper aims to explore the development and evolution of the library statistical evaluation index system, highlighting its characteristics and changes at different stages of document management, information management, and data management. The research is conducted around three key stages: document level, information level, and data level, analyzing the main content and significance of the library statistical evaluation index system at different development stages. The innovation of this paper lies in the systematic analysis of these transitions, providing a comprehensive perspective that integrates theoretical and methodological advances with practical indicators. Method/Process The research methodology includes a systematic analysis of statistical evaluation indicators of libraries in different stages of development. The study uses historical review and theoretical analysis methods, analyzing the development of document organization, information digitization, and data management in libraries. By examining the development of classification, cataloging, and evaluation metrics, the research combines historical documentation with contemporary practices to provide a solid theoretical foundation. The study also draws on existing literature and integrates data from library management systems and user feedback to assess service quality and operational efficiency. This mixed-methods approach ensures a comprehensive understanding of the applicability and effectiveness of the evaluation indicators. Results/Conclusions The study shows that the library’s statistical evaluation index system has evolved significantly, reflecting the library’s adaptation to changing resource types and management needs. The main conclusions can be summarized as follows. The document level in the first stage, focusing on book circulation, including indicators such as book use efficiency, collection development quality, and reader engagement. Key metrics such as cumulative borrowing and utilization rates provide basic service performance data, but lack deep information insights. With the development of information technology, library statistical evaluation indicators have expanded to include service frequency, response time, user satisfaction, and growth rates, enabling libraries to evaluate and improve service strategies based on user feedback and service performance. Currently, the library’s statistical evaluation system focuses on research data management and data value assessment. Indicators now include not only resource- and service-related metrics but also operational efficiency, budget utilization, technological updates, scholarly contributions, and social impact. These indicators provide a comprehensive view of the library’s performance in resource management, service quality, and social contribution, helping to optimize resource allocation, enhance service quality, and increase impact. The study also acknowledges certain limitations, such as the evolving nature of technology and user needs, which may require continuous updates to the evaluation system. Future research should explore the integration of advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence to further refine evaluation metrics. In addition, ongoing studies are needed to adapt to emerging trends in data management and user behavior to ensure that libraries remain at the forefront of information services in the digital age.

However, the study of the information behavior of social robots faces many challenges that arise from the need to simulate human social behavior. This challenge includes technical hurdles such as a multi-level understanding of human emotions, extraction of multi-modal information features, situational awareness, as well as the establishment of long-term user profiling, data privacy, and ethical considerations in personalized interaction. However, existing research tends to focus narrowly on specific applications and lacks a holistic review. This paper attempts to provide a thorough review of both domestic and international studies of social robots in the area of information behavior. It aims to elucidate the theoretical evolution and technological foundations of social robots, thereby enriching our understanding of their role in the landscape of information behavior research. Method/Process Using a rigorous literature review methodology, we meticulously analyze the current state and prospective trajectory of research on the information behavior of social robots. First, we extract and scrutinize the theoretical foundations and salient research topics within the field. We then delineate the core tasks of social robots, which include data acquisition, language processing, emotion analysis, information retrieval, and intelligent communication. Furthermore, we synthesize research on the information behavior of social robots in various application domains such as education, healthcare, and service sectors. We delve into the intricacies of human-computer interaction in these contexts and provide comprehensive insights. Finally, we explore future directions in the field. Results/Conclusions Our examination of the information behavior of social robots reveals both promising potential and notable challenges. This paper provides a fundamental elucidation of the social robot concept, identifies current research foci, and addresses prevailing challenges. Regarding the construction of data resource and related technologies, we systematically delineate the task architecture of social robots, and highlight their wide-ranging applications in various domains. Furthermore, we provide an in-depth examination of human-computer interaction scenarios in critical domains such as education, healthcare, and service delivery, offering prescient guidance for future research efforts in social robotics. Nonetheless, our findings underscore the nascent stage of development of social robotics, which requires a concerted focus on advancing interaction quality assessment, enhancing social cognitive capabilities, managing user information disclosure, and refining emotional intelligence.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance In the current era, integrated and coordinated development is the main trend of social development. University libraries need to explore how the Internet has changed the way people think and promote regional coordinated development to actively explore the integrated development model in a wider range, optimize the efficient allocation of resources in the internal and external integrated development, promote the coordinated development of industries, stimulate innovation capacity, promote the emergence of new models and new formats, and realize the superposition effect of resources and service aggregation and multiplication effects, improve social competitiveness, and promote their sustainable development. Method/Process The high-quality development of university libraries requires not only the integration and promotion of certain subject content, but also a comprehensive integration plan and development strategy that takes into account both internal and external factors. University libraries take cultivating virtue and nurturing people as the foundation, and improve their resource allocation, management platforms, and service levels through the internal integration construction of development concepts, digital technology, and composite resources. Based on the service of talent cultivation, teaching reform, and discipline construction in universities, university libraries are simultaneously integrating external services with publishers, bookstores, and their cities, seeking a mutually beneficial cooperative development model through the vertical integration of the cultural industry upstream, midstream, and downstream. In the development of multi-collaborative integration, they need to explore the construction of a diversified development system, establish a multi-domain cooperation mechanism, enhance service capabilities, innovate development ideas, and gradually achieve sustainable development goals from consolidating joint forces to stimulating vitality. Results/Conclusions Diversified and integrated development is an inevitable trend in the development of the times. In recent years, in the construction and service upgrading of smart libraries, university libraries have achieved certain results in the integration and development of digital academic platform services, new learning ecology construction, virtual real interaction space construction, intelligent service management, and other aspects. However, university libraries have low participation in the integration of extended services with publishers, bookstores, and their cities, and lack a systematic approach in terms of scientific planning and their high-level design has not yet yielded significant social benefits. Overall, there is still a lot of room for innovation and improvement in resource, service and platform integration in university libraries. It is necessary to keep up with the times, seize development opportunities, build an open development system, seek collaborative models of integration and mutual benefits, integrate quality and effectiveness, and achieve innovative transformation and development.

  • Network Analysis of Emergency Information Dissemination Considering the Strength Relationship Between Nodes

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance With the rapid development of new media technology, social media platform has become the main carrier of information dissemination. Social network analysis (SNA) is used to study the information dissemination structure and mode of emergencies in microblog, which provides theoretical support for the government to effectively deal with emergencies and crises. Methods/Process Taking Tangshan barbecue restaurant beating incident as an example, Weibo data were collected to build an information dissemination network with strength relationship between nodes. Social network analysis has been used to analyze the user attributes, node attributes, network attributes and dissemination attributes of the information dissemination network, in order to explore the role of the strength relationship between nodes in emergency information transmission. Results/Conclusions 1) The factors of user gender, activity, and region affect their dissemination power. In particular, female users, users with high activity or influence and those in developed provinces have a stronger power of information transmission. 2) The core nodes that plays the role of bridge in the dissemination chain is particularly critical. Nodes with strong relationships generally occupy central positions in the information dissemination network and may mainly consist of opinion leaders and mainstream media with greater influence. The pathways of weak and authority relationships are mainly concentrated around a few core nodes, while the pathways of strong relationships are dispersed. 3) Emergency information transmission network has high efficiency and sparse characteristics. 4) The whole process of information transmission is still dominated by weak relationships. Authority relations play an important role in all stages of information transmission, while the role of strong relationships is mainly concentrated in the initial stage. The results of this paper help to deepen the understanding of the patterns and rules of emergency information dissemination, and provide some insights for more effective management and guidance of emergency information dissemination in a particular field such as agriculture. However, our research still has shortcomings, such as insufficient crawling of user attributes and insufficient research methods. In the future study, we will obtain more abundant characteristics of users involved in the dissemination such as age, occupation and education level through interviews or questionnaires, and introduce new methods such as machine learning and graph neural network to predict and analyze the transmission path and node relationship of emergency information, so as to cover these shortcomings, improve the comprehensiveness and effectiveness of the study and deeply explore the information dissemination rules of emergencies.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance The implementation of the rural revitalization strategy is an important decision of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. It is worth discussing that university libraries should tap the potential of existing resources, better serve the knowledge and information transfer services of rural revitalization, and provide farmers with the necessary knowledge and information transfer services to improve farmers’ cultural and information quality, increase agricultural labor productivity, and enrich farmers’ spiritual and material lives. Method/Process From the perspective of knowledge and information transfer, this paper analyzes the main reasons that affect farmers’ knowledge absorption at present, the changing characteristics of knowledge information transfer of university libraries in serving rural revitalization, and the main pathways and shortcomings of universities in serving rural revitalization at present. In order to effectively realize the knowledge information transfer service for most farmers, the study selects university libraries, rural libraries, agriculture-related enterprises and farmers as the subjects and nodes in the knowledge information transfer process and discusses the construction of two knowledge and information transfer pathway models. The first pathway is from libraries to rural libraries (intermediary platforms) to farmers, which mainly transfers general cultural knowledge to improve farmers’ cultural quality and information quality. The second pathway is from libraries to agriculture-related enterprises (intermediary platforms) to farmers. This pathway mainly transfers agricultural science and technology, market and other information knowledge to improve farmers’ labor productivity. At the same time, the roles and functions of the four participants in the pathway model are analyzed and expounded. In addition, in order to further implement the two new pathways, according to the four processes of knowledge socialization, externalization, integration and internalization described in the SECI theoretical model of knowledge transfer, as well as the transfer contents, transfer methods, transfer objects and the types of knowledge information in the two designed pathway models, the author constructs four knowledge information transfer process models, in which the transfer objects of model 1 and model 2 are rural libraries and farmers, and the transfer objects of model 3 and model 4 are agricultural enterprises and farmers. Results/Conclusions Finally, some suggestions are put forward, such as innovating the system and mechanism of university libraries to serve the rural revitalization of knowledge and information transfer, constructing the accurate knowledge information resource base and dissemination system for agriculture, countryside and farmers, improving the ability of rural personnel to obtain knowledge and information, tapping the potential of rural libraries, expanding the channels of knowledge and information transfer, giving play to the role of agriculture-related enterprises, and narrowing the gap of knowledge transfer situation, so as to realize the maximum transfer of knowledge and information to farmers and contribute to the implementation of China’s rural revitalization strategy.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance In recent years, the national leadership has attached great importance to the inheritance and innovation of China’s excellent traditional culture, and the concepts of creative transformation and innovative development are constantly evolving. The Ministry of Science and Technology of China, among six departments, jointly formulated the Guidelines for Promoting the Deep Integration of Culture and Technology , proposing to form a cultural and technological integration innovation system covering key areas and critical links, to achieve the goal of in-depth integration of culture and technology . Intangible cultural heritage (ICH), as an essential part of China’s excellent traditional culture, plays a crucial role in consolidating the sense of the Chinese national community and enhancing cultural self-confidence. This paper discusses the research paths for the creative transformation and innovative development of ICH in the context of culture and technology integration, emphasizing the significant role of modern technology in promoting the transformation and development of ICH. Method/Process The paper first interprets the connotation of creative transformation and innovative development in ICH, and clarifies the theoretical foundation and guiding principles of creative transformation and innovative development in ICH. It then analyzes the significant contributions of creative transformation and innovative development in ICH to society, economy, and cultural diversity, as well as the categorized scenarios of technology empowerment in creative transformation and innovative development of ICH. It discusses six types of common key technologies that enable technology-driven creative transformation and innovative development in ICH, including digital technology, virtual and augmented reality, big data analysis, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things. It summarizes a three-tier framework system for technology-driven creative transformation and innovative development in ICH, namely the method layer, technology layer, and object layer, forming a progressive relationship from theory to technology and then to specific practices. Finally, by integrating the specific example of the traditional craft of Wuhu iron painting, it demonstrates the facilitating role of modern technology in the creative transformation and innovative development of ICH and its impact on the protection, inheritance, and innovative development of ICH. Results/Conclusions The findings suggest that technological means can effectively protect and inherit ICH, facilitating its creative transformation and innovative development. However, it also requires careful consideration and precautions against the potential risks and challenges that modern technology poses to ICH projects in terms of intellectual property rights, the digital divide, and the indirect nature of experiences. Looking to the future, with the emergence of more innovative technologies, modern technology will not only help to protect and pass on traditional culture but also give new connotations and expressions to traditional culture, ensuring that its unique value and charm continue to play out in an ever-changing world.

Method/Process This paper introduces the theory of hierarchical expected utility (RDEU), establishes a tripartite game model of netizens, online media and the government by using the replication dynamic equation, analyzes the influence of emotional factors on the behavioral decision-making of the main body and the development trend of public opinion of the three parties under the influence of different emotional states. Finally, through Matlab software simulation, the influence of emotional state on decision-making is analyzed, and the strategies and suggestions are proposed from the perspective of the government. Hierarchical expected utility theory (RDEU) is introduced to establish a tripartite evolutionary game model, the influence of emotional factors on the agent’s behavior decision-making and the development trend of public opinion under the influence of different emotional states are analyzed, and the influence of emotional states on the agent’s decision-making is also analyzed. Results/Conclusions Under the influence of emotional factors, different combinations of emotional states of each subject produce different results, and all three parties adopt different strategies according to the actual benefits, and the government’s own emotions have the most obvious impact on the results of the evolutionary game. When the government has no mood or is in an optimistic mood, the online environment is relatively unstable, and it is necessary to strengthen the management of public opinion; when the government is in a pessimistic mood, the government needs to actively supervise and control public opinion so that public opinion will be well managed, and the network environment will be more harmonious. By analyzing the behavioral strategies of the tripartite game under the influence of emotional factors, the following suggestions are made on the management of public opinion from the government’s perspective: 1) The government must always pay attention to the emotions of netizens, try to reduce the participation rate of netizens in online public opinion, strengthen education and improve the quality of netizens. 2) The government should reduce the dissemination of public opinion events by online media, encourage online media to report comprehensively and objectively, and avoid false information that causes negative emotions of the online public opinion.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance In the era of mobile Internet, mobile phones are the most important information access tools. From the perspective of mobile phone use, this paper examines and reveals the information acquisition behavior of farmers, explores the information gap in rural areas, analyzes the characteristics of the information acquisition behavior of key groups, and provide insights into how to improve the information acquisition behavior and narrowing the information gap. The significance of the research is that, with a focus on digital inclusion, we start from the inclusive feature of the Internet and modern information technology, find out the key groups to pay attention to in the information gap, and put forward ideas on how to realize digital inclusion from the perspective of farmers’ information acquisition and needs. Method/Process Based on the rural sample survey at the national level, principal component analysis and RIF regression analysis were used to measure farmers’ information acquisition behavior and identify the role of key influencing factors in improving information acquisition behavior. This study analyzes farmers’ information acquisition behavior from the perspective of mobile phone use, describes the micro characteristics of the information gap in rural areas, and makes the conclusion more scientific and generalizable based on the sample survey of farmers at the national level. Results/Conclusions The low long tail group in the evaluation results of farmers’ information acquisition behavior exists in the aged people groups and the groups with the education level below junior middle school, which highlights the phenomenon of information gap in rural areas. Key explanatory variables have a more pronounced marginal effect on groups with low evaluation results of information acquisition behavior (below the median). Improving the impact of mobile phone use among key groups such as the elderly and the undereducated makes an important contribution to narrowing the information gap, which reflects the inevitable requirement of the concept of digital inclusion. Based on the improvement of network facilities, it is also necessary to pay attention to the use of mobile phone functions and information content acquisition of key groups, strengthen the accuracy of information supply, activate the information needs of key groups, and improve the adaptability of such groups in the digital environment. There are still more relatively poor and aging groups in rural areas, which need to be included in the digital inclusion path, improve the situation of vulnerable groups in the digital age, and provide the means to realize people’s needs. Future research will pay more attention to promoting the provision of high-quality public service resources through digital tools, realizing the continuous empowerment of digital technology for rural development, and improving the digital literacy of citizens, especially rural residents.

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: The scientific connotation, strategic considerations and practical ways of new quality productive forces have received wide attention from the political, academic and industrial circles. Cultivating and developing new quality productive forces means fundamentally changing the mode of production. It is necessary to grasp the practical direction of new quality productive forces from their scientific connotation and internal logic, and explore the scientific way of cultivating and developing the new quality productive forces from China’s national conditions. As an important engine of economic development in the new era, its connotation characteristics, development path, opportunities and challenges are worthy of further discussion. For this reason, seven experts were invited to share their perspectives. 1) The deep logic and realization path of the construction of new quality productive forces and high-quality data resources. This paper discusses in depth the background and connotation characteristics of the high-quality data resources, and analyzes the internal logic of the mutual promotion between high-quality data resources and the development of new quality productivity. It is proposed that the construction of high-quality data resources must implement the concepts of innovation, coordination, openness, credibility and sustainability, and follow the construction strategies of concept innovation, model innovation, structural innovation and technological innovation. 2) The theoretical logic and practical path of data elements empowering new quality productive forces. In the new era of green and intelligent development, there is a profound dialectical relationship between data elements and new quality productive forces, and a new situation of economic and social development is accelerated in the spiral ascent of complementarity. We should comprehensively build a data space governance model with clear data ownership, smooth data path, guaranteed data quality and orderly and standardized algorithm computing power, expand new quality production capacity and production factors with the goal of human-machine cooperation and promote sustainable economic and social development. 3) Accelerating the promotion of data rights. Data can act on new quality productive forces from the technical, factor and industrial dimensions, and accelerate the formation of new quality productive forces. The multiplier effect of data elements on new quality productive forces will involve many dimensions, levels and stages, the most important and fundamental of which is how to determine the ownership of data. The measures for speeding up the promotion of new quality productive forces are discussed, such as constructing the theory of property rights in accordance with the characteristics of data and the law of development of new quality productive forces, speeding up the clarification of the types and scope of data confirmation, and improving the supporting system of data confirmation. 4) Promoting China’s modernization path with Chinese-style digitization. Accelerating the promotion of Chinese-style digitization is not only the only way to realize Chinese-style modernization, but also the core to fully release new quality productive forces and build China’s asymmetric competitive advantage under the new situation. It is suggested that in the process of digitalization and informatization in China, the information resource management industry plays a vital role and bears the important responsibility of digital transformation. 5) Interpreting the mission of public libraries from the perspective of new quality productive forces. Since its establishment, public libraries have been based on the concept of enlightenment. Faced with the profound digital transformation of society, today’s public libraries need to further develop the potential of empowering the people in the field of digital economy and make them play an active role in the development of new quality productive forces. Public libraries need to further develop their potential to empower people in the field of digital economy, so that they can play an active role in the development of new quality productive forces. They should actively participate in data commercialization, promote the effective use of data elements and the efficiency of resource allocation, and enable more people to obtain and use data elements equally through open access and digital services. 6) The intelligent transformation of university libraries from the perspective of new quality productive forces. In the process of developing new quality productive forces, we should fully understand the profound meaning of new productive forces, based on the core tasks of providing a strong guarantee for the development of new quality productive forces in higher education, grasp the development opportunities, and realize the high-quality development of the industry. This paper explains the understanding of university libraries on the three key words of new quality productive forces, and proposes that the re-understanding and realization of library intelligence is an important starting point for the development of new productive forces. 7) To support information resource management discipline to accelerate the development of new quality productive forces. From the perspective of information resource management discipline, this paper analyzes several aspects of doing something under the rise of new quality productivity concept, including theoretical system, information resource guarantee, information analysis and consultation, scenario building, knowledge popularization and civic literacy cultivation. The content of academic evaluation, information policy, intellectual property rights, digital consumption behavior and other directions related to new quality productivity are also important directions that the discipline needs to pay attention to.

  • Analysis of Information Dissemination of Emergencies Based on Weibo User Characteristics

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance With the popularity and development of social media, Weibo has become an important information transmission platform. Understanding the law of emergency information transmission based on the characteristics of Weibo users is of great significance for grasping the development trend of events, evaluating the influence of information, and formulating effective response strategies. Methods/Process Selecting typical cases of four types of emergencies (natural disasters, accidents, public health events, and social security events) as the research objects, this paper crawled the user data of the information transmission on the Weibo platform and analyzed the distributions of user gender, user geographical distribution, user attention and fan number and user type of the information transmission for these events, in order to reveal the differences and similarities of the user characteristics and transmission laws for the four types of emergencies. Results/Conclusions As for the similarities of the user characteristics and transmission laws, first, the audiences of the four types of emergencies have obvious regional characteristics, and the users in economically developed provinces generally have a higher attention rate. Second, the transmission users of all types of emergencies are generally concentrated on active users and grassroot users with strong and weak propagation power respectively, accompanied by a small number of authoritative users with strong influence. However, there are differences in the broadness and gender distribution of the audiences for different types of emergencies. First, natural disasters have a wider spread of the audiences and relatively higher attentiveness; accidents and public health events tend to be local events with relatively low attentiveness, whose audiences may be more concentrated in and around the affected areas; the audience spread of social security events is scattered depending on the nature of the event, the scope of influence as well as the communication channels. Second, female users pay more attention to natural disasters, public health events and social security events, while male users pay more attention to accidents, which can be attributed to the different emotional orientations and psychological characteristics associated with users of different genders. These results provide insights for the formulation of targeted guidance strategies for information dissemination. In future studies, we will collect data on other social media platforms, obtain more information on user characteristics through different channels, and introduce more in-depth analysis methods and indicators to comprehensively reveal the dynamic mechanisms of emergency information dissemination, thus improving the accuracy and effectiveness of the research.

  • Journal Download Factor: A Composite Indicator of Dissemination, Impact, Knowledge and Information

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance The birth of the Internet has brought revolutionary impact on bibliometrics, giving rise to a number of online download indicators for academic literature. The most representative basic indicator among them is the download frequency, but it also includes the annual download rate, the total download volume, the download half-life, and the Google Scholar Index. The proposal of these indicators provides a new method and means of measuring scholarly dissemination and impact, which is a significant development of traditional bibliometrics and an important component of alternative metrics. Given the lack of indicators that comprehensively characterize the dissemination, impact, knowledge and information volume of academic journals, this paper proposes the download factor indicator to address this problem. Method/Process First, according to the changes of download frequency and citation frequency over the years, based on the citation data of CSSCI journals of library information and bibliology on CNKI, a panel data model was used to establish a prediction model of download frequency and citation frequency, and the optimal lag period for designing the download factor was determined. The indicator of download factor was proposed, that is, the average number of downloads per hundred times of each paper after 2 years of publication. This paper further used ridge regression to analyze the relationship between the download factor and the impact factor, h-index, and the number of articles. Results/Conclusions The download frequency with a lag of 1 year and 2 years determines 80% of the citation frequency. This article innovatively adopts a panel data model and comprehensively evaluates the impact of download frequency on citation frequency in both current and lagged periods, thereby greatly improving the prediction accuracy. The download factor can better measure the knowledge information volume, dissemination level, influence and academic quality of the journal. The timeline for downloading factor indicators is synchronized with the influencing factors, both within 2 years after the publication of journal articles, focusing on the evaluation of academic communication level. The download factor has the highest correlation with the main indicator of the impact of journal quality, the h-index, and has a high correlation with the impact factor and publication volume. It has good statistical indicator properties and is a comprehensive indicator for evaluating journals; the download factor index needs to be more inspection of application in disciplines and use of data. This article is based on the conclusions drawn from the research of 19 CSSCI journals in library and information science literature. The relationship between download frequency and citation frequency in other disciplines, as well as the construction of download factors, require further research in conjunction with the latest data.

  • Causes and Influence Paths of Digital Stress among Social Media Users

    Subjects: Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science >> Other Disciplines of Agriculture, Forestry,Livestock & Aquatic Products Science submitted time 2024-06-26 Cooperative journals: 《农业图书情报学报》

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance With the development of the Internet and the popularization of smart devices, the scale of social media users around the world is increasing, and social media has become the center of people’s communication, but it also produces a series of negative problems. Digital stress refers to the painful subjective experience of users caused by different stressors in the process of heavy use of social media. At present, most studies on social media focus on users’ social media behaviors. In recent years, digital stress has gradually attracted the attention of researchers. However, most studies discuss the impact of single variables on results from the perspective of linear regression, and few studies focus on the complex mechanism behind digital stress. This study aims to explore the influencing factors and mechanism of social media users’ digital stress in order to further understand the path of digital stress and provide reference for relieving users’ digital stress. Method/Process This paper adopted a mixed research method combining grounded theory and qualitative comparative analysis. First, 21 users were selected as interview objects, interview data were coded, and theoretical models were constructed. Second, a questionnaire was designed according to the theoretical model and 262 questionnaires were collected. The fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method was used to analyze the questionnaire data and explore the formation path of social media users’ digital stress. Results/Conclusions There were 9 influencing factors of social media users’ digital stress: overuse, technology intrusion, information overload, communication load, fear of missing out, approval anxiety, social expectation, digital coping skills and self-control. They were classified into four dimensions: technology, social, environment and personal characteristics. There are six paths that trigger digital stress, among which overuse and fear of missing out are the key factors leading to high-level digital stress, technology intrusion and information overload are the important conditions for digital stress, and digital coping skills and self-control have no significant effects. At the same time, this paper has some limitations. First, the end point and result variable of this paper is the digital pressure of social media users, focusing on the factors that affect the generation of digital pressure and how the combination of factors and variables ultimately leads to the generation of results. Less attention is paid to user behavior. Although some attention is paid in the interview, antecedent variables are emphasized in the analysis. Future studies can take users’ social media usage behavior into consideration to explore the whole process formation mechanism of influencing factors-digital pressure-user behavior. In addition, most of the research samples are young users of social media, and users of other age groups are less involved. In the future, the research samples should be further expanded to improve the universality of the research conclusions.
