Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9082: When Implicit Offence Is Not Necessarily Negative: Pragmatic Strategies and Sentiment Polarity in Chinese Online Attacks

1+ day, 1+ hour ago   (538+ words) This study investigates how sentiment polarity relates to offensive function in Chinese online attacks, focusing on cases where offence is expressed implicitly rather than through explicit negative wording. Using a 1400-item Chinese online-text corpus derived from TOXICN and its pragmatics-oriented…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9006: An Exact Continuous-Time Markov Chain Framework for Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Multi-Product Push–Pull Production Systems

3+ day, 19+ hour ago   (415+ words) Multi-product production systems require effective coordination among production, intermediate storage, downstream processing, and customer demand, particularly under stochastic operating conditions and finite capacity. Unlike existing analytical studies that mainly examine either single-product push–pull systems or multi-product manufacturing systems separately,…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8894: A Data-Driven Framework for Scenario-Based Safety Service Patrol Route Prioritization Using Historical Crash Data

6+ day, 19+ hour ago   (505+ words) Safety Service Patrols (SSPs) are highway assistance programs that provide rapid response to crashes, disabled vehicles, and other incidents, helping to reduce congestion and improve roadway safety. Effective SSP coverage planning is important because timely deployment can facilitate quicker incident…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8863: Distributed Mixed-Power Fixed-Time Cooperative Guidance for Multiple Aircraft with Terminal Line-of-Sight Angle Constraints

1+ week, 22+ hour ago   (429+ words) Cooperative interception by multiple aircraft requires coordination of physical event times and terminal line-of-sight (LOS) directions under strongly coupled three-dimensional motion. A limitation of predictor-based designs is that agreement of estimated terminal times is often interpreted as simultaneous interception without…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8495: Short-Term Electricity Consumption Forecasting for a University Campus: A Hybrid SWT–Frequency Attention–TCN Approach

2+ week, 4+ day ago   (552+ words) This study proposes a hybrid deep learning model based on the Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT), a Frequency Attention mechanism, and a Temporal Convolutional Network architecture (TCN) for short-term electricity consumption forecasting at the university campus scale. The study utilizes a…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8454: Data Access and Quality Barriers in Large-Scale Administrative Health Data: A Reproducible, Information-Loss-Aware Harmonization Framework

2+ week, 5+ day ago   (407+ words) Large-scale administrative hospital discharge data is a key resource for secondary health systems research, yet reuse is constrained by barriers of access, quality, interoperability, and semantic comparability. This paper presents and validates a reproducible, declarative, loss-aware harmonization framework for public…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8442: A Dual-Track Feature Fusion and Interpretable Prediction Framework for Transportation Accident Severity Under Small-Sample and Class-Skew Constraints

2+ week, 6+ day ago   (356+ words) Accurately predicting transportation accident severity is critical for targeted risk governance, yet research based on accident investigation reports is often hampered by small sample sizes and skewed class distributions. This study develops a dual-track feature fusion and interpretable prediction framework…...
