Fractional-Order SEIQRDP Model for Simulating the Dynamics of COVID-19 Epidemic by Mohamed A. Bahloul, Abderrazak Chahid, Taous-Meriem Laleg-Kirati

“…In fact, due to its non-locality properties, a fractional-order operator takes into consideration the variables&#x2019; memory effect, and hence, it takes into account the sub-diffusion process of confirmed and recovered cases. <italic>Results&#x2013;</italic>The validation of the studied fractional-order model using real COVID-19 data for different regions in China, Italy, and France show the potential of the proposed paradigm in predicting and understanding the pandemic dynamic. …”

Three-dimensional creep constitutive model of sandstone based on damage statistics by Wang Liukai, Cai Guojun, Zhao Weiping, Hu Xing

“…Compared with the fitting results of the other two models, the fitting accuracy of the model is better than that of the other two, and the variable t that is easy to cause errors does not participate in the process of calculating the parameters of the model, and the damage parameters are directly related to stress and strain, which improves the accuracy to a certain extent.ConclusionsThe results show that the damage statistical creep constitutive model fits the creep deformation characteristics of rocks under three-dimensional conditions, enriches the influencing factors of constitutive parameters, and has a certain guiding role.…”

Influencing factors of cross screening rate and its intelligent prediction model by Lala ZHAO, Feng XU, Chenlong DUAN, Chenhao GUO, Wei WANG, Haishen JIANG, Jinpeng QIAO

“…Cross-type fine-grained roller screen (cross screen) is a new type of dry deep screening equipment, which effectively solves the problems of screen surface plugging and other problems that are easy to occur in traditional dry screening equipment. The mathematical model of the screening process and the DEM (Discrete Element Method) model are difficult to accurately predict the actual screening performance. …”

Weed detection in cornfields based on improved lightweight neural network model by Haicheng Wan, Shanping Wang

“…Based on the original YOLOv4, an improved lightweight weed detection model, YOLOv4-weeds, is proposed. By changing the main YOLOv4 feature extraction network into MobileNetV3-Small, combined with the depthwise separable convolution and inverse residual structure, and introducing a lightweight attention mechanism, this model reduces the image processing memory size and improves detection efficiency. …”

Computational modelling reveals the influence of object similarity and proximity on visually guided movements by Mandar Manjunath Patil, Dietmar Heinke, Fan Zhang

“…The results from the experiment confirmed the commonly made assumption that proximity and similarity between objects (also termed perceptual grouping) affect the quality of the reaches. However, what was novel here was that modelling the reaches also allowed to temporally separate these factors, as the start of the movement was affected by both factors while the reach trajectory was affected only by proximity between target and distractor objects indicating that human information processing of visual stimuli applies these factors in a serial fashion. …”
