Can power be made an empirically viable concept in policy process theory? Exploring the power potential of the Narrative Policy Framework by Tjorven Sievers, Michael D. Jones

“…Despite the range of analytical foci in current policy process theory, the idea of an empirically sound power concept has not received much attention.

SP-GEM: Spatial Pattern-Aware Graph Embedding for Matching Multisource Road Networks by Chenghao Zheng, Yunfei Qiu, Jian Yang, Bianying Zhang, Zeyuan Li, Zhangxiang Lin, Xianglin Zhang, Yang Hou, Li Fang

“…However, weighting spatial information on the node feature alone fails to give full play to the expressive power of GNNs. To this end, this paper proposes a Spatial Pattern-aware Graph EMbedding learning method for road-network matching, named SP-GEM, which explores the idea of spatially-explicit modeling by identifying spatial patterns in neighbor aggregation. …”
