The analytic result indicates that: so long as the country established the corresponding rewards and punishments incentive mechanism to the local authority departments responsible for the work, it reports the safety accident in the coal mine on time. The conclusion that the local government displays right and wrong cooperation behavior will be changed with the introduction of the Incomplete Information. Only has the local authority fulfill their responsibility, can the unsafe accident be controlled effectively. Once this kind of cooperation of local government appears, the costs of the country on the safe supervise and the difficulty will be able to decrease greatly.展开更多

For both conditions, SCM implementation options’ decision optimizing models have been developed. In these models, both clients and vendors try to pursue their own benefits. Based upon the principal-agent theory, the models show to what extent a principal (a client) needs to pay more to an agent (a vendor) in a context of asymmetric information. For the client, it is important to understand the extra costs to be able to adopt effective strategies to stimulate a vendor to perform an optimal implementation of a SCM system. The results of a simulation experiment regarding SCM implementation options illustrate and verify the theoretical findings and confirm the general notion that the less informed party is obliged to pay information rent to the better-informed party.展开更多

In this paper, the results of regulations of the infringements by means of the game theory and our findings suggest that we should witness less cases of violations when we intensify own efforts to check up and punish those violations, and lower the return of the infringement. At the same time, we would increase the effect of supervising violated behavior when we strengthen the deterrence.展开更多

Criminal conviction and sentencing execution is guaranteed to achieve, but also fairness and justice contained in the Criminal Code. In criminal law enforcement issues related to research more deeply refined today, supervision of Criminal changes have also been made to perform individually and have a very important significance. A direct result of the implementation of the activities of Criminal debtor prison of term prison sentences and the way to change the location, and the status of implementation as well as criminal penalties for the personal interests are closely related, and therefore it is a very, important enforcement regime. Under our current legal environment, the high amount of crime, large numbers of people in custody are restdting in criminal arduous tasks. It is coupled with the existing legal provisions for change-flawed execution of supervision that is extremely prone to change in the course of execution carried favoritism, money corruption. Meanwhile, the new introduction of the "Criminal Law Amendment eight," is for which the commutation, parole perform content changes made adjustments and changes.But for the first time, it provides for community corrections system officially to be incorporated into China' s Criminal Law among but the corresponding lack of prosecutorial oversight and other content specific legal provisions, changes are related to the implementation of community Corrections supervision given probation, parole, probation and other penalties to bring the practical operation of the nroblerns.展开更多

Kenya lacks contractual guidelines on implementation of BIM;this makes the adoption of BIM slow and difficult. Previous research has identified a gap in contractual relationships, roles and resulting risks. The objectives of this study were to investigate BIM adoption in Nairobi and to investigate the influence of BIM on Engineering Contract Management (ECM)</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> in Nairobi Kenya</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">. The survey research was a descriptive study with 175 responsive questionnaires. Respondents comprised of Civil Engineers, Construction Project Managers, Architects, Quantity Surveyors, Contractors and Facility Managers. Data was collected through self-administered questionnaire and in-depth interview. Descriptive analytics, correlation and Exploratory factor analysis methods were used to analyse quantitative data. Qualitative data was analysed thematically. It emerged that adoption level was at 56.6% and shallow understanding of BIM capabilities remains to be a barrier to its adoption and implementation. It also emerged that BIM improves ECM;when time, cost, quality, collaboration and return on investment improve, ECM becomes easier. Latent factors found in BIM and ECM relationship were Legal Implications, awareness and knowledge, efficiency, versatility, mandate and leadership, and competitiveness. Further, the study found out that BIM influence on ECM demands for establishment of standards, guidelines, policy, legal framework, and regulations, which can be achieved by amending the public procurement act which dictates the operation of all the other standard forms of contract. Further research should be conducted to measure whether the understanding of BIM had positively improved.展开更多

Intelligence refers to learning, adap- tation, and functionality, and robustness refers to the ability to handle incomplete and/or corrupt adversarial information, on one side, and image and or device variability, on the other side. The proposed methodology is model-free and non-parametric. It draws support from discriminative methods using likelihood ratios to link at the conceptual level biometrics and forensics. It further links, at the modeling and implementation level, the Bayesian framework, statistical learning theory (SLT) using transduction and semi-supervised lea- rning, and Information Theory (IY) using mutual information. The key concepts supporting the proposed methodology are a) local estimation to facilitate learning and prediction using both labeled and unlabeled data;b) similarity metrics using regularity of patterns, randomness deficiency, and Kolmogorov complexity (similar to MDL) using strangeness/typicality and ranking p-values;and c) the Cover – Hart theorem on the asymptotical performance of k-nearest neighbors approaching the optimal Bayes error. Several topics on biometric inference and prediction related to 1) multi-level and multi-layer data fusion including quality and multi-modal biometrics;2) score normalization and revision theory;3) face selection and tracking;and 4) identity management, are described here using an integrated approach that includes transduction and boosting for ranking and sequential fusion/aggregation, respectively, on one side, and active learning and change/ outlier/intrusion detection realized using information gain and martingale, respectively, on the other side. The methodology proposed can be mapped to additional types of information beyond biometrics.展开更多

Reflection shows that the fundamental causes of the subprime crisis are largely attributable to financial corruption arising from grave violations of financial information disclosure. Information supervision is an important check on financial corruption in that it serves as a means of regulating financial information disclosure and through transparency, reducing the demand for and supply of corruption. Drawing upon the recent reform of the US financial regulatory system and grounding ourselves on Chinese practice, we believe the reconstruction of the financial regulatory system should center on information supervision, with a focus on improving the system of information disclosure for financial bodies, building a unified financial information platform and an effective information-sharing mechanism, and integrating all supervisory resources into a unified and powerful force against financial corruption.展开更多

BRL uses a Bayesian score to evaluate the quality of BNs. In this paper, we extended the Bayesian score to include informative structure priors, which encodes our prior domain knowledge about the dataset. We call this extension of BRL as BRL_p. The structure prior has a λ hyperparameter that allows the user to tune the degree of incorporation of the prior knowledge in the model learning process. We studied the effect of λ on model learning using a simulated dataset and a real-world lung cancer prognostic biomarker dataset, by measuring the degree of incorporation of our specified prior knowledge. We also monitored its effect on the model predictive performance. Finally, we compared BRL_p to other stateof-the-art classifiers commonly used in biomedicine.RESULTS We evaluated the degree of incorporation of prior knowledge into BRL_p, with simulated data by measuring the Graph Edit Distance between the true datagenerating model and the model learned by BRL_p. We specified the true model using informative structurepriors. We observed that by increasing the value of λ we were able to increase the influence of the specified structure priors on model learning. A large value of λ of BRL_p caused it to return the true model. This also led to a gain in predictive performance measured by area under the receiver operator characteristic curve(AUC). We then obtained a publicly available real-world lung cancer prognostic biomarker dataset and specified a known biomarker from literature [the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) gene]. We again observed that larger values of λ led to an increased incorporation of EGFR into the final BRL_p model. This relevant background knowledge also led to a gain in AUC.CONCLUSION BRL_p enables tunable structure priors to be incorporated during Bayesian classification rule learning that integrates data and knowledge as demonstrated using lung cancer biomarker data.展开更多

For both conditions, SCM implementation options’ decision optimizing models have been developed. In these models, both clients and vendors try to pursue their own benefits. Based upon the principal-agent theory, the models show to what extent a principal (a client) needs to pay more to an agent (a vendor) in a context of asymmetric information.

文摘AIM To develop a framework to incorporate background domain knowledge into classification rule learning for knowledge discovery in biomedicine.METHODS Bayesian rule learning(BRL) is a rule-based classifier that uses a greedy best-first search over a space of Bayesian belief-networks(BN) to find the optimal BN to explain the input dataset, and then infers classification rules from this BN. BRL uses a Bayesian score to evaluate the quality of BNs. In this paper, we extended the Bayesian score to include informative structure priors, which encodes our prior domain knowledge about the dataset. We call this extension of BRL as BRL_p. The structure prior has a λ hyperparameter that allows the user to tune the degree of incorporation of the prior knowledge in the model learning process. We studied the effect of λ on model learning using a simulated dataset and a real-world lung cancer prognostic biomarker dataset, by measuring the degree of incorporation of our specified prior knowledge. We also monitored its effect on the model predictive performance. Finally, we compared BRL_p to other stateof-the-art classifiers commonly used in biomedicine.RESULTS We evaluated the degree of incorporation of prior knowledge into BRL_p, with simulated data by measuring the Graph Edit Distance between the true datagenerating model and the model learned by BRL_p. We specified the true model using informative structurepriors. We observed that by increasing the value of λ we were able to increase the influence of the specified structure priors on model learning. A large value of λ of BRL_p caused it to return the true model. This also led to a gain in predictive performance measured by area under the receiver operator characteristic curve(AUC). We then obtained a publicly available real-world lung cancer prognostic biomarker dataset and specified a known biomarker from literature [the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) gene]. We again observed that larger values of λ led to an increased incorporation of EGFR into the final BRL_p model. This relevant background knowledge also led to a gain in AUC.CONCLUSION BRL_p enables tunable structure priors to be incorporated during Bayesian classification rule learning that integrates data and knowledge as demonstrated using lung cancer biomarker data.
