User image construction framework based on big data fusion background for power grid business travel by Changhao ZHANG, Zhiyong YU, Zhen ZHOU, Ruijie SHI, Xinyong WANG

“…Business travel planning decisions based on big data analysis are an important part of controlling travel dynamics and developing travel specifications.Based on the information of the national network business travel information,aiming at the optimization of the travel mode during the travel process and the personal preference of hotel accommodation,a user portrait framework technology was constructed to realize the rapid and accurate identification of sensitive customer groups.Firstly,the user's sensitivity was predicted by two-channel modeling for different characteristics of users.Secondly,users were characterized by business approval,travel control,hotel evaluation,time characteristics,numerical characteristics,etc.…”

Algorithm design on energy efficiency maximization for UAV-assisted edge computing by Qihui WU, Wei WU

“…For the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted edge computing system,a two-stage alternative algorithm was proposed to solve the formulated complex non-convex problem.Firstly,the formulated non-linear fractional programming problem was reformulated to the equivalent parametric problem by using Dinkelbach method.Secondly,two sub-problems were further considered based on it.By employing the Lagrange duality method,the closed-form solutions for the central processing unit frequencies and the number of data bits were derived.Finally,based on the solutions obtained,the conditions that the source node prefers to offload/share its data and the relay chooses to forward the computation results,as well as the approaches to achieve high energy efficiency were revealed.Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed design can achieve a performance improvement of up to 20 times over the conventional schemes.…”
