I-AIR: intention-aware travel itinerary recommendation via multi-signal fusion and spatiotemporal constraints by Xiao Cui, Zhihua Wang, Ping Li, Qiang Xu

“…Additionally, many approaches decouple POI selection from itinerary construction and depend heavily on limited behavioral signals, failing to capture richer feedback such as ratings, dwell times, or click histories. To address these limitations, we propose an intention-aware deep learning framework that integrates diverse user signals into a unified itinerary planning model. …”

Attention-based multi-scale convolution and conformer for EEG-based depression detection by Ze Yan, Ze Yan, Ze Yan, Yumei Wan, Xin Pu, Xiaolin Han, Mingming Zhao, Haiyan Wu, Wentao Li, Xueying He, Yunshao Zheng

“…This study proposes an end-to-end EEG-based depression recognition model, AMCCBDep, which combines Attention-based Multi-scale Parallel Convolution (AMPC), Conformer, and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU). The AMPC module captures temporal features through multiscale convolutions and extracts spatial features using depthwise separable convolutions, while applying the ECA attention mechanism to weigh key channels, enhancing the model’s focus on crucial electrode channels. …”

Comparative analysis of soil thermal conductivity in the permafrost regions of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau and the Arctic by Wenhao Liu, Ren Li, Tonghua Wu, Guojie Hu, Xiaodong Wu, Shenning Wang, Junjie Ma, Jianzong Shi, Shengfeng Tang, Xiaofan Zhu, Yongping Qiao

“…The mean STC values in the QTP permafrost region during the thawing period are significantly higher than those during the freezing period. (2) STC of the QTP exhibits a fluctuating pattern at different depths, in contrast, the average STC value in the Arctic increases steadily with depth, with an increase rate of approximately 0.005 Wm−1 K−1/cm. (3) The analysis of influencing factors revealed that although moisture content, bulk density, and porosity are the primary drivers of regional variations in STC between the QTP and the Arctic permafrost, moisture elements in the QTP region have a greater influence on STC and the effect is stronger with increasing depth and during the freeze–thaw cycles. …”
