This study makes two important contributions to the existing literature. On one hand, it investigated tourism impacts as perceived by residents in historic cities India (Puri and Varanasi). other analysed residents’ relation their evaluation of stage destination development. A survey collected valid responses from 570 local residents, who display a high level agreement concerning positive economic sociocultural tourism. Despite environmental concerns, respondents wish attract more tourists...

Data-driven intelligent transportation systems (D2ITSs) have drawn significant attention lately. This work investigates a novel multi-agent-based data-driven distributed adaptive cooperative control (MA-DD-DACC) method for multi-direction queuing strength balance with changeable cycle in urban traffic signal timing. Compared the conventional strategies, proposed MA-DD-DACC combined an online parameter learning law can be applied manner by merely utilizing collected I/O queueing length data...

AbstractAnnuity-contingent derivatives involve both mortality and interest risks, which could have a correlation. In this article, we propose generalized pricing framework in the dependence between two risks can be explicitly modelled. We also utilize change of measure technique to simplify valuation expressions. illustrate our methodology guaranteed annuity option (GAO). Using forward associated with bond price as numéraire newly introduced concept endowment-risk-adjusted measure, derive...

Macau, the world’s largest casino hub with gambling revenues, has received increasing attention as a research focus. Macau attracts more and Chinese outbound tourists each year due to its industry monopoly in Greater China. is positioning itself ‘world center of tourism leisure’ set out plans become broader-based tourist destination economic diversification. Thus, an understanding people’s varied motivations plays important role current status environment moderate diversification...

Hospitals play a crucial role in promoting public health and well-being, but their distribution accessibility can significantly affect healthcare outcomes. The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) boasts an abundance of resources; however, access to these facilities be challenging due population clustering inadequate resource allocation. Unfortunately, quantifying residents' is complicated by the lack centralized database complex transportation systems. To address limitations, we...

Risk analysis in actuarial science has shifted its focus from diversifiable risk to systematic the last 20 years or so. This article contributes further this direction by proposing concept of annuity rate take account inherent products. The is conditional expectation annuity's future payments, given paths mortality and interest rates. We provide an empirical study investigate impact two factors on distribution rate. In particular, we adopt Lee-Carter Cairns-Blake-Dowd models for risk,...

Urban rail transit has become an indispensable option for Beijing residents. Subway inelastic users (SIUs) are the main component among all users. Understanding proportion of SIUs and their characteristics is important in developing service promotions helpful subway agencies making marketing policies. This paper proposes a novel simple identification process identifying regular trips (SITs) order to distinguish SITs non-SITs extract characteristics. Weekly station sequence (WSS) selected as...

Public transportation is a crucial component of urban systems, and improving passenger sharing rates can help alleviate traffic congestion. To enhance the punctuality supply-demand balance dedicated buses, we propose hierarchical multi-objective optimization model to optimize bus guidance speeds operation schedules. Firstly, present an intelligent decision-making method for driving speed based on mathematical description states application Lagrange multiplier method, which improves overall...

Upon summarization and analysis of the structural features automobile large plastic parts selection corresponding shaping modes, this paper analyzes elaborates product design, raw material selection, forming method, design mode, debugging process, etc. on account manufacturing defects such as weld line sink mark, easily occurring to large-scale decorating subject injection molding, offers operable solutions measures available for practical production sake maximum improvement apparent quality.

Advanced urban traffic signal control systems such as SCOOT and SCATS normally coordinate network using multilevel hierarchical mechanism. In this mechanism, several key intersections will be selected from the divided into different subareas. Traditionally, intersection selection subareas division are executed according to dynamic counts link length between intersections, which largely rely on engineers’ experience. However, it omits important inherent characteristics of topology. paper, we...

Tourism flow is an important monitoring indicator for the industrial operation of ecotourism destinations, crucial in its planning, development, and marketing. Based on travel journal data popular tourism websites, this paper analyzed spatial temporal distribution, network structure, coupling characteristics between traffic accessibility Zhangjiajie using standard deviation ellipse, social analysis, kernel density estimation, a model. The main results are as follows: (1) In terms time mainly...

The growing number of vehicles on roads has re-sulted in longer travel times, decreased mobility, and heightened environmental impact. In this paper, we present a framework for traffic signal control system that utilizes vehicle emission measurements. primary objective is to effectively balance emissions across different approaches ensure fairness entering intersections. Initially, determined the measurements each approach subsequently selected top priority approach. To further promote...

In order to investigate the issues in measurement of value travel time savings (VTTS), willingness-to-accept (WTA) for private car owner is studied by using surveyed data. It convincing that trip purpose, length, savings, cost income, and allowance from employee have effects on WTA. Moreover, influences these variables are not same different purposes. For commuting trips, income significant while dominated leisure shopping trips. also found WTA much higher than expected which implies there a...
