Combining Deep Learning with Knowledge Graph for Design Knowledge Acquisition in Conceptual Product Design

The acquisition of valuable design knowledge from massive fragmentary data is challenging for designers in conceptual product design.This study proposes a novel method for acquiring design knowledge by combining deep learning with knowledge graph.Specifically,the design knowledge acquisition method utilises the knowledge extraction model to extract design-related entities and relations from fragmentary data,and further constructs the knowledge graph to support design knowledge acquisition for conceptual product design.Moreover,the knowledge extraction model introduces ALBERT to solve memory limitation and communication overhead in the entity extraction module,and uses multi-granularity information to overcome segmentation errors and polysemy ambiguity in the relation extraction module.Experimental comparison verified the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed knowledge extraction model.The case study demonstrated the feasibility of the knowledge graph construction with real fragmentary porcelain data and showed the capability to provide designers with interconnected and visualised design knowledge.

Psychiatrists’occupational stigma conceptualization,measurement,and intervention:A literature review

Psychiatrists require frequent contact with and treatment of patients with mental illnesses.Due to the influence of associative stigma,psychiatrists may also be targets of stigma.Occupational stigma warrants special consideration because it significantly affects psychiatrists'career advancement,well-being,and their patients’health.Given that there is no complete summary of this issue,this study reviewed the existing literature on psychiatrists'occupational stigma to clearly synthesize its concepts,measurement tools,and intervention strategies.Herein,we emphasize that psychiatrists’occupational stigma is a multifaceted concept that simultaneously encompasses physically,socially,and morally tainted aspects.Currently,standardized methods to specifically measure psychiatrists’occupational stigma are lacking.Interventions for psychiatrists’occupational stigma may consider the use of protest,contact,education,comprehensive and systematic methods,as well as the use of psychotherapeutic approaches.This review provides a theoretical basis for the development of relevant measurement tools and intervention practices.Overall,this review seeks to raise public awareness of psychiatrists'occupational stigma,thereby promoting psychiatric professionalism and reducing its stigma.

A Conceptual Model of Our Universe Derived from the Fine Structure Constant (α)

The Fine Structure Constant (α) is a dimensionless value that guides much of quantum physics but with no scientific insight into why this specific number. The number defines the coupling constant for the strength of the electromagnetic force and is precisely tuned to make our universe functional. This study introduces a novel approach to understanding a conceptual model for how this critical number is part of a larger design rather than a random accident of nature. The Fine Structure Constant (FSC) model employs a Python program to calculate n-dimensional property sets for prime number universes where α equals the whole number values 137 and 139, representing twin prime universes without a fractional constant. Each property is defined by theoretical prime number sets that represent focal points of matter and wave energy in their respective universes. This work aims to determine if these prime number sets can reproduce the observed α value, giving it a definable structure. The result of the FSC model produces a α value equal to 137.036, an almost exact match. Furthermore, the model indicates that other twin prime pairs also have a role in our functional universe, providing a hierarchy for atomic orbital energy levels and alignment with the principal and azimuthal quantum numbers. In addition, it construes stable matter as property sets with the highest ratio of twin prime elements. These results provide a new perspective on a mathematical structure that shapes our universe and, if valid, has the structural complexity to guide future research.

Conceptual Blending and Meme Humor on the Internet:The Example of COVID-19 Publicity Posters in Chinese Microblogging

Internet memes,as multimodal cultural products disseminated through the Internet,usually take the form of short videos or images that express humor or satire.The creation and dissemination of humor in memes are both creative and complex,and the successful perception of meme humor reflects humans’universal thinking capacity.Based on the theoretical framework of conceptual blending,this paper selects a set of COVID-19 publicity posters from the official Weibo account of China Guangzhou Fabu(Guangzhou Internet Information Office),analyses the multi-level structure of Internet memes,and explores the dynamic cognitive process in the interpretation of humorous memes to reveal people’s ability to make simultaneous analogies and integration between elements in different mental spaces.

A Conceptualist Survey of Physical Theories

The main thesis intended in this paper consists in that scientific knowledge of the physical world entails a conceptualization of it in a certain mode which is relative to,and dependent on,the theory assumed or constructed.Physical theories embody conceptual systems that at once make possible and limit our conceptualization of how the world is and our cognitive access to what happens in it.From a conceptual holism(Brown,2007),we try to maintain that since we think of the world and understand what occurs in it by systems of concepts,they acquire major relevance to a philosophical stance about scientific knowledge.In a holistic sense,delimited,at least,by the system of concepts of a given theory,concepts have both a theoretical laden to scientific experience,according to the thesis of Hanson(1958),and an ontological laden to the world,which consists in that the statements that one can assert about the physical world,the entities,and systems that one can describe as well as the claims that one holds about the processes undergone by the physical systems are dependent on and relative to such conceptual system of such theory.Thus,the framework displayed here contrasts with the epistemological realist thesis in the sense that we cannot claim how the world is really but rather how we conceptualize it relative to our theory.In addition,we expose an epistemic concept of valid statement,relative to a theory,which becomes consistent and even complementary to the framework provided.

Corpus-Driven Analysis of Conceptual Metaphor in Artificial Intelligence Language:A Sample of ChatGPT-Written Speeches

Based on Conceptual Metaphor Theory(CMT),this paper creates a tiny corpus of ChatGPT-written speeches.Through employing a corpus-driven approach,this study analyzes the identification and utilization of conceptual metaphors in artificial intelligence(AI)languages.The AI demonstrated its capacity to utilize metaphors in the metaphoric corpora through the display of diversity,non-arbitrariness,repetition,and intersectionality in the selection of source domains.It often uses vocabulary combinations with clear similarities to establish metaphorical meaning.In the literal sense,the outcomes of metaphor identification by artificial intelligence differ significantly from those of humans.Therefore,there is a need to develop advanced automatic models for identifying metaphors in order to enhance the precision of metaphor identification consistently.

A Study of the English Translation of Positive Emotions from the Perspective of Conceptual Metaphor

experience shared by human beings,but it is often expressed in the form of conceptual metaphor which is pervasive in the concrete language.Drawing upon the theory of conceptual metaphor and emotion metaphors,this paper aims to study the translation of positive emotions in David Hawkes’version of The Story of the Stone and the related daily expressions as the corpus.According to the theories,this paper categorizes the positive emotions metaphors into body metaphors,sensory metaphors,entity metaphors,and orientational metaphors to discuss the process of English translation and the metaphorical mechanism,analyzes the similarities and differences between Chinese and English expressions of positive emotions and their cultural,physiological,and psychological motives,and lastly attempts to summarize the translation strategies of emotional expressions.The analysis of metaphorical mechanisms reveals that the common physiological and psychological experiences of human beings and cultural exchanges give rise to similarities,while the unique cultural environments,antecedents,and historical development of each nation give rise to their distinctiveness.This paper concludes that translators need to make full use of their subjectivity,understand the surface and underlying meaning of the text,and establish a high level of mental compatibility between themselves,the readers,and the author.

By means of the detailed discussion towards types of idioms and comparison of English idioms and Chinese idioms, the thesis analyses how to put conceptual metaphor theory into the practice of teaching Idioms.

The Coherent Function of Conceptual Metaphor in Political Address

Adopting Lakoff & Johnson's conceptual metaphor theory as theoretical framework and president Obama's State of the Union Address in 2011 as research corpus,the analysis is carried out from two perspectives to probe into the coherent function of metaphor:one is coherence constructed by a single conceptual metaphor,the other is coherence constructed by more than one conceptual metaphor.

Application of Conceptual Metaphor in English Teaching

Metaphor is a figure of speech in tradition view. In modern linguistics, conceptual metaphor can be seen as a way of thinking. Thus, conceptual metaphor is common used in English from accent time until today. It is the basis of human being's cognition, thinking ways, language application and behavior. It is such an important part of English that the application of conceptual metaphor is quite essential in English teaching in China. This thesis mainly focuses on the application of conceptual metaphor in English teaching on the basis of detailed introduction of conceptual metaphor theories and people's way of sentence comprehension.

Cognitive Study of English Death Euphemism Based on the Conceptual Integration Theory

This artical attempts to adopt Fauconnier and Turner's conceptual blending theory to illustrate the meaning construction and the cognitive interpretation of English death euphemism,and tries to explore its cognitive mechanism in order to provide a new theoretical perspective for its development.

Conceptual Metaphor and English Vocabulary Teaching

We can see how metaphors exist in everyday language, even if we may not always notice. Metaphor plays an important role in vocabulary teaching. In accordance with the analysis of the fundamental theories proposed by Lakoff & Johnson (1980), this thesis provides some suggestions which help English teachers improve vocabulary teaching strategies.

Study of Idioms Based on the Conceptual Metaphor Theory

On the production and understanding of the idioms, cognitive linguists put forward totally different opinions from the traditional linguistic theory. One enduring belief about the arbitrariness of English idioms is that they are non-componential, because their idiomatic meanings are not deducible from the meaning of their individual parts. According to"conceptual metaphor"theory, which are proposed by cognitive linguists Lakoff and Johnson: Metaphor is a mapping that from one more familiar, more easily understanding source domain to a less familiar, more difficult target domain. The paper studies on the idiomaticity and the motivation of the idioms based on the"conceptual metaphor"theory from the perspective of cognitive linguistics.

Extractive distillation: Advances in conceptual design, solvent selection,and separation strategies

Extractive distillation(ED) is one of the most promising approaches for the separation of the azeotropic or closeboiling mixtures in the chemical industry. The purpose of this paper is to provide a broad overview of the recent development of key aspects in the ED process involving conceptual design, solvent selection, and separation strategies. To obtain the minimum entrainer feed flow rate and reflux ratio for the ED process, the conceptual design of azeotropic mixture separation based on a topological analysis via thermodynamic feasibility insights involving residue curve maps, univolatility lines, and unidistribution curves is presented. The method is applicable to arbitrary multicomponent mixtures and allows direct screening of design alternatives. The determination of a suitable solvent is one of the key steps to ensure an effective and economical ED process. Candidate entrainers can be obtained from heuristics or literature studies while computer aided molecular design(CAMD) has superiority in efficiency and reliability. To achieve optimized extractive distillation systems, a brief review of evaluation method for both entrainer design and selection through CAMD is presented. Extractive distillation can be operated either in continuous extractive distillation(CED) or batch extractive distillation(BED), and both modes have been well-studied depending on the advantages in flexibility and low capital costs. To improve the energy efficiency, several configurations and technological alternatives can be used for both CED and BED depending on strategies and main azeotropic feeds. The challenge and chance of the further ED development involving screening the best potential solvents and exploring the energy-intensive separation strategies are discussed aiming at promoting the industrial application of this environmentally friendly separation technique.

Lessons learned from the “5.12” Wenchuan Earthquake:evaluation of earthquake performance objectives and the importance of seismic conceptual design principles

Many different types of buildings were severely damaged or collapsed during the May 12, 2008 Great Wenchuan Earthquake. Based on survey data collected in regions that were subjected to moderate to severe earthquake intensities, a comparison between the observed building damage, and the three earthquake performance objectives and seismic conceptual design principles specified by the national ＂Code for Seismic Design of Buildings GB50011-2001,＂ was carried out. Actual damage and predicted damage for a given earthquake level for different types of structures is compared. Discussions on seismic conceptual design principles, with respect to multiple defense lines, strong column-weak beam, link beam of shear walls, ductility detailing of masonry structures, exits and staircases, and nonstructural elements, etc. are carried out. Suggestions for improving the seismic design of structures are also proposed. It is concluded that the seismic performance objectives for three earthquake levels, i.e., ＂no failure under minor earthquake level, ＂＂repairable damage under moderate earthquake level＂ and ＂no collapse under major earthquake level＂ can be achieved if seismic design principles are carried out by strictly following the code requirements and ensuring construction quality.
