The principal economic sector devoted to the breeding, raising, and production of farm animals is known as the livestock industry. There are precise standards for making high-quality feed in animal husbandry. Precision livestock feeding is a crucial...

In real-world scenarios, obtaining the relationships between nodes is often challenging, resulting in incomplete network topology. This limitation significantly reduces the applicability of community detection methods, particularly neighborhood aggre...

This paper aims to establish the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions to abstract sequential fractional differential equations. The approach employed involves the utilization of resolvent operators and the fixed-point theorem. Additionally, we...

This study proposes a novel integration of the Extreme Gradient Boosting Machine (XGBoost) and Differential Flower Pollination (DFP) for constructing an intelligent method to predict the compressive strength (CS) of high-performance concrete (HPC) mi...

Extensive uncertainty can affect the efficiency and fairness of consensus in the consensus reaching process (CRP), but few scholars have studied consensus modeling that focuses on fairness and efficiency in uncertain environments. Additionally, the w...

The focus of this research was on building a decision support system for a model that characterizes the conflict interaction of n-dimensional complex systems with non-trivial internal structures. The interpretation of the new model was focused on inf...

For the generalized Sturm–Liouville problem (GSLP), a new formulation is undertaken to reduce the number of unknowns from two to one in the target equation for the determination of eigenvalue. The eigenparameter-dependent shape functions are de...

With the rapid development of the information age, smart meters play an important role in the smart grid. However, there are more and more attacks on smart meters, which mainly focus on the identity authentication of smart meters and the security pro...

A succinct and systematic form of multiplication for any arbitrary pairs of octonions is devised. A typical expression of multiplication for any pair of octonions involves 64 terms, which, from the computational and theoretical aspect, is too cumbers...

In this study, we introduce two novel discrete counterparts for the Rayleigh–Lindley mixture, constructed through the application of survival and hazard rate preservation techniques. These two-parameter discrete models demonstrate exceptional a...
