It offers a recommendation for the top 1000 Authors of computer science in different fields of study. The technique used in this paper is handling the inadequate Information for citation;it removes the problem of cold start, which is encountered by very many other recommender systems. In this paper, abstracts, the titles, and the Microsoft academic graphs have been used in coming up with the recommendation list for every document, which is used to combine the content-based approaches and the co-citations. Prioritization and the blending of every technique have been allowed by the tuning system parameters, allowing for the authority in results of recommendation versus the paper novelty. In the end, we do observe that there is a direct correlation between the similarity rankings that have been produced by the system and the scores of the participant. The results coming from the associated scrips of analysis and the user survey have been made available through the recommendation system. Managers must gain the required expertise to fully utilize the benefits that come with business intelligence systems [1]. Data mining has become an important tool for managers that provides insights about their daily operations and leverage the information provided by decision support systems to improve customer relationships [2]. Additionally, managers require business intelligence systems that can rank the output in the order of priority. Ranking algorithm can replace the traditional data mining algorithms that will be discussed in-depth in the literature review [3].展开更多

NRR publishes a diverse array of topics in neural regeneration, including brain, spi- nal cord, peripheral nerve injuries; neurodegenera- tive diseases; and neuroimaging. NRR focuses on the latest research advances in axon regeneration, neural plasticity, neural repair/substitution, neural circuit or network construction, neural regulation or signal repair, nerve grafting, and synaptogenesis during the process of nerve injury and regeneration. Papers regarding the treatment of central and peripheral nervous system diseases using cell therapy, gene ther- apy, neural regulation technique, tissue engineering, bioengineering, medication, and biomaterial/neuro- prosthesis applications are of great interest to NRR. The following papers have a higher acceptance rate after submission： those that clearly describe neuronal changes after injury; state how to alleviate neuronal injury and evaluate the injury; explain the proce- dures and methods of protecting injured neurons; and investigate the mechanisms underlying neuronal injury, prognosis and neural regeneration at the cel- lular and molecular level.展开更多
