Conventional federated learning (FL) coordinated by a central server focuses on training global model and protecting the privacy of clients' data storing it locally. However, statistical heterogeneity hinders from adapting to non-IID distributions among clients. Moreover, untrusted unreliable servers malicious clients may compromise integrity availability, thus degrading robustness FL. To address these challenges, we present RobustPFL, decentralized personalized (PFL) approach that combines...

Based on panel data from 30 provinces in China 2000 to 2023, this study examines the relationship between knowledge complexity and carbon lock-in. The results indicate that an increase alleviates Heterogeneity show mitigating effect of lock-in is more pronounced eastern China, areas south Qinling–Huaihe River, regions with higher levels infrastructure construction, lower proportion state-owned enterprises, government financial science technology expenditures. In terms mechanisms, primarily...

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems play a crucial role in production environments. Optimising the control strategy of an HVAC system is effective approach to achieving energy savings reducing emissions environment. In existing optimal models for systems, occupant behaviour has been incorporated as key influencing factor. However, model predictive algorithms have not introduced examine its performance optimising operation. An optimisation considering (leaders users...

Residential and commercial buildings consume 66% of the electricity 33% all energy in United States are therefore considered as a key sector to review for savings. Early studies have reported great potential achieving cost-effective efficiency through influencing behavioral change. However, it still remains serious challenge avoid negative boomerang effects consumer Likewise, is unclear how lacking factor personality trait, which vital success normative feedback approach, shapes...

Developing a green, low-carbon, and circular economic system is the key to achieving carbon neutrality. This study investigated organics removal efficiency in three-dimensional electrode reactor (3DER) constructed from repurposed industrial solid waste, i.e., Mn-loaded steel slag, as catalytic particle electrodes (CPE). The CPE, micron-grade material consisting primarily of transition metals, including Fe Mn, exhibited excellent electric conductivity, ability, recyclability. High rhodamine B...

This article introduces a multifunctional wireless power transfer (WPT) system, uniquely capable of self-sustaining generation and automatic directional charging. system integrates retrodirective array (RDA), loaded with active radio frequency (RF) circuits, solar cells (SCs), thus enabling the RDA to function as transmitter in WPT independently, without reliance on external sources. integration facilitates direct solar-to-RF energy conversion while simultaneously achieving self-tracking...

BACKGROUND Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a new type of extracorporeal respiratory and circulatory assistance device. It can drain venous blood out the body inject it into veins or arteries after being oxygenated by an oxygenator (membrane lung) to replace lung heart functions in short time. ECMO provide tissue perfusion gas exchange almost equivalent cardiac output extend effective treatment time window for patients with acute failure restore cardiopulmonary function. CASE...

Takayasu arteritis (TA), a rare systemic macrovasculitis in children, affects multiple arteries, causing necrosis, remodeling, stenosis, or dilatation. Due to nonspecific symptoms, early diagnosis is challenging, and it often missed until organ dysfunction occurs. TA poses significant health threat, with few reports on acute cerebral infarction pediatric cases.

ECMO is an advanced technology for extracorporeal respiratory and circulatory support. It involves the extraction of venous blood from patient's body, which subsequently oxygenated within oxygenator (or membrane lung). This oxygen-rich reinfused either into veins or arteries, rapidly compensating impaired lung heart functionalities. mirrors essential processes cardiac output in facilitating tissue perfusion gas exchange, thereby expanding therapeutic window critically ill patients with acute...

Introduction Previous research suggests a potential association between physical activity (PA) and breast cancer (BC), but the causal relationship remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to explore PA BC through Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Material methods Genome-wide studies utilizing data from UK Biobank baseline were employed analyze phenotypes, encompassing 460,376 participants. Summary for BC, comprising 122,977 cases 105,974 controls, obtained Association Consortium....

Goal commitment is a critical construct in understanding the relationship between goals and behavioral performance field of energy conservation.However, little has been done to investigate goal relation electricitysaving performances household goal-setting treatment.This paper seeks re-contextualize associations with electricity saving households provide meaningful discussion explanation findings observed.A experiment was conducted effect setting strategy on consumption Singapore.In...

Social Networking (Services) pushes the tools of enterprise human resources management to new levels.Social may produce both positive and negative effects on implementation management, including staff recruitment, cross-cultural communication, performance evaluation team construction.

The relationship between cooperative enterprises with global supply chain management mode has changed profoundly. Thereby bringing correlative legal issues and raising risk. paper constructed the model of it by theory jurisprudence histology, then, relational behaviors contract parties application provision were analyzed in depth as well game analysis risk analysis. Also developing process network implemental structure second frame described. Further more, way steps to control was given. In...
