abstract = {The irregularity of the time interval between observations in and across the stream is a key factor that leads to a drop in performance when classical machine learning or deep learning models are used for a downstream task requiring multivariate time series. Indeed, irregular multivariate time series not only increase the rate of missing values but also lead to data sparsity, which consequently makes the data almost unleverageable and/or ineffective for models. To tackle this scorching challenge, most of the pioneering approaches apply imputation or interpolation in their core, which might lead to embedding data with noise. To especially address this irregular multivariate time series issue, we introduce, in this paper, a new deep neural network model called ALignment-driven Neural Network. The innovative idea of our model is to transform the irregular multivariate time series into pseudo-aligned (or pseudo-regular) latent values. The latter are shown as a matrix, where the coefficients are the latent values of each feature at user-defined reference time points that are evenly spaced. They are obtained through a duplication process driven by an exponential decay mechanism. The obtained output is then passed to a Recurrent Neural Network model, which is undoubtedly the must-use model for regular time series data. To show that our model added value, we looked at the Intensive Care Unit mortality prediction task. In this unit, the physiological measurements used to make decisions have a problem with time irregularity. Leveraging the publicly available MIMIC-III, we compare the performance of our model to that of flagship models. In addition, we also performed extensive ablation studies to highlight the importance of specific components in our model. Interestingly enough, whenever data is collected 24 and 48 h after a patient's admission, we outperform our pioneering competitors, i.e., +1.1% and +1.5% for the AUC score, +2.3% and for the AUPRC score and +0.6% and +1.7%

 for the F1-score.},

abstract = {A time fractional-step method is presented for numerical solutions of the incompressible non-Newtonian fluids for which the viscosity is non-linear depending on the shear-rate magnitude according to a generic model. The method belongs to a class of viscosity-splitting procedures and it consists of separating the convection term and incompressibility constraint into two time steps. Unlike the conventional projection methods, the viscosity is not dropped in the last step allowing to enforce the full original boundary conditions on the end-of-step velocity which eliminates any concerns about the numerical boundary layers. We carry out a rigorous error analysis and provide a full first-order error estimate for both the velocity and pressure solutions in the relevant norms. Numerical results are presented for two test examples of non-

Newtonian fluid flows to demonstrate the theoretical analysis and confirm the reliability of this viscosity-splitting scheme.},

The moving liquid-solid interface is explicitly fulfilled as the energy and momentum equations are solved over the full physical domain.

Study 1 tests how BMI similarity relates to a traditional measure of appearance homophily and perceived reliability of a female advertising model. Study 2 shows that BMI similarity influences perceived product quality and purchase intention. Website vividness negatively moderates the relationship between BMI similarity and product quality. Study 3 tests for alternative explanations and provides support for the mediating effect of appearance homophily for the relationship between BMI similarity and perceived product quality. The findings provide marketing managers with important insights on how to increase their marketing effectiveness by integrating BMI similarity into their marketing communications.

Our model exhibits a smile that can fit the implied volatility of swaptions for a given key rate (tenor). We harness on the log-normality of the model, conditionally with respect to jumps, and derive formulae to evaluate both caplets/floorlets and swaptions. Our model exhibits negative jumps on the zero-coupon (hence positive on the rates). Therefore, its behaviour is compatible with the situation where globally low interest rates can suddenly show cluster of positive jumps in case of tensions on the market. One of the main difficulties when dealing with the HJM model is to keep a framework that is Markovian. In particular, it is important to preserve the important features of the Hull and White version, especially the reconstruction formula that provides the zero-coupon bonds in terms of the underlying model factors. In our case, this formula is based on two factors: a classical Gaussian part and a pure jump martingale part based on a Hawkes process.},

These requirements are both the uniformity and the independence of the so-called probability integral transforms, which are the forecast time-varying cumulated distributions applied to the observations. We thus build a new numerical criterion incorporating both the uniformity and independence properties by the mean of an adapted Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic. We apply this method to financial markets during the onset of the COVID-19 crisis. We determine the time-varying density of daily price returns of several stock indices and, using various divergence statistics, we are able to describe the chronology of the crisis as well as regional disparities. For instance, we observe a more limited impact of COVID-19 on financial markets in China, a strong impact in the US, and a slow recovery in Europe.},

In the second model, M and H satisfy the Langevin magnetization law M=MsL(b1|H|)|H|1?fH, where L is the Langevin function given by L(x)=1tanh?x?1x, Ms is the saturation magnetization and b1 is a positive physical constant. The velocity and the pressure satisfy the Stokes equation with a Kelvin magnetic force. We perform the homogenization of the equations of each of the two models. Using the two-scale convergence method, we rigorously derive the homogenized equation for the magnetic potential and determine the asymptotic limit of the magnetization.

Further, imagery vividness impacts purchase intention positively in the social commerce context through social presence. Specifically, the effect of imagery vividness on purchase intention is likely to be serially mediated by cognitive social presence and affective social presence.

This method splits the nonlinearity (convection term) and the incompressibility into two different steps. As a result, every subproblem is easier to solve than the Navier-Stokes system. The semi-implicit approach is mostly used in the first step for the nonlinearity term and the intermediate velocity is calculated by dropping the pressure gradient. We then resolve a linear Stokes problem in the next step.

We present a modified viscosity-splitting scheme (Incremental viscosity-splitting) (IVS) to improve this method. This scheme adds the gradient of the pressure (calculated at the previous time step) in the first step and modifies the Stokes equations in the second step to

predict a better value of the intermediate velocity. A manufactured solution and two well-known benchmarks will be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested strategy.},

abstract = {Inverse kinematics is the basis for controlling the motion of robotic manipulators. It defines the required joint variables for the robotic end-effector accurately reach the desired location. Due to the derivation difficulty, computation complexity, singularity problem, and redundancy, analytical Inverse kinematics solutions pose numerous challenges to the operation of many robotic arms, especially for a manipulator with a high degree of freedom. This paper develops different Deep Learning networks for solving the Inverse kinematics problem of six- Degrees of Freedom robotic manipulators. The implemented neural architectures are Artificial Neural Network, Convolutional Neural Network, Long-Short Term Memory, Gated Recurrent Unit, and Bidirectional Long-Short Term Memory. In this context, we associate the proposed results with a specific tuning of Deep Learning network hyper-parameters (number of hidden layers, learning rate, Loss function, optimization algorithm, number of epochs, etc.). The Bidirectional Long-Short Term Memory network outperformed all proposed architectures. To be close as possible to the experimental results, we have included two types of noise in the training data set to validate which of the five proposed neural networks is more efficient. Furthermore, in this study, we compare the performance of analytical and soft computing solutions in generating robots' trajectories. We include this scenario, focusing on the advantage of implementing neural networks in avoiding the singularity problem that can occur using the analytical approach. In addition, we used the RoboDK simulator to show simulation results with real-world meaning. The performance of Deep Learning models depends on the complexity of the posed problem. Moreover, the complexity of the Inverse Kinematics problem is related to the number of Degrees of Freedom. At the end of this work, we evaluate the influence of the complexity of robotic manipulators on the proposed Deep Learning networks' performance. The results show that the implemented Deep Learning mechanisms performed well in reaching the desired pose of the end-effector. The proposed inverse kinematics strategies apply to other manipulators with different numbers of Degrees of Freedom.},

Many machine learning- and deep learning-based models have been proposed for drought forecasting, however, they cannot handle the temporal and/or spatial dependencies in the input data, causing unexpected forecasting results. In order to solve the challenging issue, in this paper we proposed the Heterogeneous Spatio-Temporal Graph (HetSPGraph), for drought forecasting. It includes three major layers: spatial aggregations including inter and intra aggregations, temporal aggregation, and a forecasting network. The main function of HetSPGraph is to learn the dynamic spatiotemporal correlations between the regions and to further predict the drought in different regions, based on which accurate drought forecasting can be achieved. Experimental forecasting results of the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) in China indicated that the HetSPGraph model outperformed the traditional baseline methods including the Long Short-Term Memory model (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Network-LSTM (CNN-LSTM), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Networks (STGCN) and Geographic-Semantic-Temporal Hypergraph Convolutional Network (GST-HCN). Even for long-term forecasting (12 months), more accurate forecasting results, with the coefficient of determination 

 higher than 0.89, can also be obtained by HetSPGraph compared to the other three models. The proposed HetSPGraph model has the potential for wider use in forecasting drought and other natural disasters.},

for a more detailed analysis of the properties of cardiac conduction than the classical bidomain

and monodomain models. In [5], we detail this model in which gap junctions are considered

as the connections between adjacent cells in cardiac muscle and could serve as alternative

or supporting pathways for cell-to-cell electrical signal propagation. Departing from this mi-

croscopic cellular model, we apply the periodic unfolding method to derive the macroscopic

tridomain model. Several diculties prevent the application of unfolding homogenization

results, including the degenerate temporal structure of the tridomain equations and a nonlin-

ear dynamic boundary condition on the cellular membrane. To prove the convergence of the

nonlinear terms, especially those dened on the microscopic interface, we use the boundary

unfolding operator and a Kolmogorov-Riesz compactness's result.},

abstract = {The objective of this paper is to investigate a new numerical method for the approximation of the self-diffusion matrix of a tagged particle process defined on a grid. While standard numerical methods make use of long-time averages of empirical means of deviations of some stochastic processes, and are thus subject to statistical noise, we propose here a tensor method in order to compute an approximation of the solution of a high-dimensional quadratic optimization problem, which enables to obtain a numerical approximation of the self-diffusion matrix. The tensor method we use here relies on an iterative scheme which builds low-rank approximations of the quantity of interest and on a carefully tuned variance reduction method so as to evaluate the various terms arising in the functional to minimize. In particular, we numerically observe here that it is much less subject to statistical noise than classical approaches.},

abstract = {Several blogs and websites with a focus on social media marketing suggest that brands can benefit from fostering their Instagram account followers' fear of missing out (FoMO) by posting ephemeral content. Relying on an online survey with 550 followers of Instagram brand accounts and a scenario-based experiment with 535 participants, this article shows that content ephemerality triggers followers' FoMO, which increases brand account engagement and brand account fatigue. Brand account engagement (fatigue), in turn, positively (negatively) relates to brand attitude and brand attachment. Further analyses reveal that the total effect of followers' FoMO on brand attachment is positive and significant, while the total effect of FoMO on brand attitude is not significant. Moreover, content ephemerality has a negative and significant total effect on brand attitude. A key implication of these findings is that it is not beneficial for brands to foster their Instagram account followers' FoMO by posting ephemeral content.},

The method is based on Legendre orthogonal polynomials of high degree k (typically k=10) in each subinterval and is a generalisation to DDEs of a similar method which proved to be very efficient for ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We show how the error can be estimated allowing to control the size of the time step. We also propose a particularly efficient quasi Newton method for the solution of the resulting non linear systems based on a very accurate approximation of the Jacobian matrix that is very easy to implement and with excellent convergence properties. The method is then applied to very stiff systems of DDEs.},

This is a continued effort within the EUROfusion inheriting from the earlier European coordination projects as well as research projects based at various European laboratories. The ongoing work of the TSVV Tasks is supported by the Advanced Computing Hubs. Major projects requiring the high performance computing (HPC) resources are global gyrokinetic codes and global hybrid particle-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) codes. Also applications using the integrated modelling tools, such as the Energetic-Particle Workflow, based on the ITER Integrated Modelling & Analysis Suite (IMAS), or the code package for modelling radio-frequency heating and fast-ion generation may require intensive computation and a substantial memory footprint. The continual development of these codes both on the physics side and on the HPC side allows us to tackle frontier problems, such as the interaction of turbulence with MHD-type modes in the presence of fast particles. One of the important mandated outcomes of the E-TASC project is the IMAS-enabling of EUROfusion codes and release of the software stack to the EUROfusion community.},

based on a very cheap deterministic Galerkin scheme and a ??fine'' solver based on a

high-fidelity Monte Carlo resolution.

In a set of benchmark numerical experiments based on a toy model concerning

the time-dependent diffusion equation, we compare our hybrid parareal strategy with

a standard full Monte Carlo solution. In particular, we show that for a large number

of processors, our hybrid strategy significantly reduces the computational time of the

simulation while preserving its accuracy. The convergence properties of the proposed

Monte Carlo/deterministic parareal strategy are also discussed.},

abstract = {Purpose



This article draws on a reasoned action perspective and the two fundamental dimensions (i.e. warmth and competence) of the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) to analyze customers' chatbot-related attitudes and usage intentions in service retailing. The authors investigate how chatbot, customer, and contextual characteristics, along with perceptions of chatbot warmth and competence, shape customers' chatbot-related attitudes. Furthermore, the authors analyze whether the customer generation or the service context moderates the relationship between chatbot-related attitudes and usage intentions.

Design/methodology/approach



The results are based on two studies (N = 807). Study 1 relies on a 2 (chatbot communication style: high vs low social orientation) × 2 (customer generation: generation X [GenX] vs generation Z [GenZ]) × 2 (service context: restaurant vs medical) between-subjects design. Study 2 relies on a similar number of respondents from GenX and GenZ who answered questions on scheduling a service with either the dentist or the favorite restaurant of the respondents.

Findings



GenZ shows more positive attitudes toward chatbots than GenX, due to higher perceptions of warmth and competence. While GenZ has similar attitudes toward chatbots with a communication style that is high or low in social orientation, GenX perceives chatbots with a high social orientation as warmer and has more favorable attitudes toward chatbots. Furthermore, the positive effect of chatbot-related attitudes on usage intentions is stronger for GenX than GenZ. These effects do not significantly differ between the considered contexts.

Originality/value



This research formulates future directions to stimulate debate on factors that service retailers should consider when employing chatbots.},

abstract = {Artificial intelligence (AI) has increased the ability of organizations to accumulate tacit and explicit knowledge to inform management decision-making. Despite the hype and popularity of AI, there is a noticeable scarcity of research focusing on AI's potential role in enriching and augmenting organizational knowledge. This paper develops a recursive theory of knowledge augmentation in organizations (the KAM model) based on a synthesis of extant literature and a four-year revised canonical action research project. The project aimed to design and implement a human-centric AI (called Project) to solve the lack of integration of tacit and explicit knowledge in a scientific research center (SRC). To explore the patterns of knowledge augmentation in organizations, this study extends Nonaka's SECI (socialization, externalization, combination, and internali- zation) model by incorporating the human-in-the-loop Informed Artificial Intelligence (IAI) approach. The proposed design offers the possibility to integrate experts' intuition and domain knowledge in AI in an explainable way. The findings show that organizational knowledge can be augmented through a recursive process enabled by the design and implementation of human-in-the-loop IAI. The study has important implications for research and practice.},
