Hybrid machine learning applications in pavement engineering: predicting spalling with PSO-GBM by Ali Alnaqbi, Ghazi G. Al-Khateeb, Waleed Zeiada

“…Existing predictive models frequently fail to effectively estimate spalling despite a wealth of data on pavement performance because of the complexity of contributing elements, including as traffic, climate, and structural conditions. The predictive accuracy of traditional statistical and machine learning models is unsatisfactory due to their limitations in capturing nonlinear interactions and optimizing hyperparameters. …”

Effect of Sucrose on the Rheology and 3D Printability of Pregelatinized Rice Flour Paste by Dongju Lee, Mohammed I. Saleh, Youngseung Lee

“…These results indicate that a decrease in α-rice flour concentration combined with sucrose addition weakens viscoelastic properties, resulting in lower structural stability and greater deformation. This study confirms the role of α-rice flour in enhancing starch’s physical and functional properties and provides fundamental data for optimizing 3D printing with α-rice flour–sucrose paste.…”

From information exposure to legal consciousness: The chain mediating role of political trust and social equality in Chinese college students by Liu Peng, Min Tian, Wan Li

“…To address these gaps, we propose a chain mediation model examining relationships between information exposure, legal consciousness, political trust, and social equality, and their mediating mechanisms. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), with 213 Chinese college students, we find that information exposure does not enhance legal consciousness and exerts a direct negative effect on it. …”
