Governance and Dynamic Efficiency with Network Structure in the Brazilian Natural Gas Utilities by Francisco Roldineli Varela Marques, Alexandro Barbosa, Pedro Simões, Kelly Cristina de Oliveira

“…The second stage (explanatory) was estimated through the panel with random effects to identify the relationship between governance and efficiency, considering certain context factors. The results show that the average general efficiency was 74.96%, resulting from the interactions between the average efficiency rates of 72.21% of the technical–operational division and 82.03% of the economic–financial division, and suggest that the corporate governance index and ownership (public or private) are not relevant factors for the efficiency results studied.…”

Evaluation of the efficiency of Russian universities: Do we need to change the paradigm? by E. V. Romanov

“…The research work was carried out based on a systematic approach. General scientific methods were used: an analytical review of scientific literature and the content of regulatory documents, comparison and generalisation (results of the evaluation of the efficiency of 215 universities under the Ministry of Education and Science according to the monitoring of universities in 2019, indicators of 34 federal and national research universities (monitoring 2016-2018)), induction (based on the analysis of the dynamics of the measurement of the average Unified State Exam (USE) score of applicants for technical universities, there is no correlation between this indicator and the employment of graduates), synthesis (formulation of the proposals for an approach to evaluate the activities of universities).Results and scientific novelty. …”

ESYN:efficient synchronization clustering algorithm based on dynamic synchronization model by Xue-wen DONG, Chao YANG, Li-jie SHENG, Jian-feng MA

“…Clustering is an important research field in data mining.Based on dynamical synchronization model,an efficient synchronization clustering algorithm ESYN is proposed.Firstly,based on local structure information of a non-vector network,a new concept vertex similarity is brought up to describe the link density between vertices.Secondly,the network is vectoried by OPTICS algorithm and turned into one-dimensional coordination sequence.Finally,global coupling analysis is applied to generalized Kuramoto synchronization model,synchronization radius is increased and the optimal clustering result is automatically selected.The experimental results on a large number of synthetic and real-world networks show that proposed algorithm achieves high accuracy.…”

Dynamic FastMap: An Efficient Algorithm for Spatiotemporal Embedding of Dynamic Graphs by Omkar Thakoor, T. K. Satish Kumar

“…FastMap is a near-linear-time graph embedding algorithm that has already found many real-world applications. In this paper, we generalize FastMap to Dynamic FastMap, which efficiently embeds dynamic graphs, i.e., graphs with time-dependent edge-weights, in a spatiotemporal space with a user-specified number of dimensions, while reserving one dimension for representing time. …”
