Hyperspectral target detection based on graph sampling and aggregation network. by Tie Li, Hongfeng Jin, Zhiqiu Li

“…This proposed model is capable of autonomously learning the effective feature representations of nodes within the graph, thereby facilitating the extraction and processing of graph data. It achieves this by extracting feature vectors through principal component analysis to construct adjacency matrices and performing convolution operations on hyperspectral images via sparse matrix multiplication, which enables the propagation and aggregation of node features within the graph structure. …”

An Embedding-Based Semantic Analysis Approach: A Preliminary Study on Redundancy Detection in Psychological Concepts Operationalized by Scales by Zhen Huang, Yitian Long, Kaiping Peng, Song Tong

“…This study introduces an Embedding-based Semantic Analysis Approach (ESAA) for detecting redundancy in psychological concepts, which are operationalized through their respective scales, using natural language processing techniques. The ESAA utilizes OpenAI’s text-embedding-3-large model to generate high-dimensional semantic vectors (i.e., embeddings) of scale items and applies hierarchical clustering to group semantically similar items, revealing potential redundancy. …”
