Comments on the Quality of English Language

Ensure consistent use of technical terms throughout the document. For instance, switch between "non-linear" and "nonlinear" or variations in hyphenation in terms like "right-coprime factorization" should be standardized to one form.

Review and correct the use of articles, particularly when referring to general concepts or specific instances (e.g., "the hysteresis" vs. "hysteresis").

Maintain a consistent verb tense throughout the sections. For example, if describing methodology or ongoing effects, stick to present tense; use past tense when discussing completed actions or results.

Ensure subject-verb agreement, especially in complex sentences or where the subject is modified by additional phrases (e.g., "The results of simulation and practical experiments are exhibited").

Check for correct comma usage to avoid run-on sentences or comma splices, and ensure appropriate use of semicolons and colons for list or extended explanations.

Simplify sentences where possible to improve clarity. Break down complex ideas into shorter sentences or bullet points, especially in the methodology and results sections.

Reduce the overuse of prepositional phrases to make sentences more direct and easier to read.

Ensure that descriptions of processes or models are clear and precise. Avoid ambiguous terms that could confuse readers unfamiliar with the specific field.

Check for consistent capitalization of defined terms, acronyms, and initialisms throughout the text.

Ensure that all mathematical expressions are clearly described and consistent with the text descriptions. Check for any misalignment between equations and their textual explanations.
