This research dynamically evaluates the innovation efficiency of China’s high-tech industry and explores the efficiency differences in basic innovation, application innovation, and income innovation of this industry for different regions. Based...
Existing efficiency assessments differ in scope and do not consistently distinguish local from complete-chain performance. This review combines bibliometric mapping with conceptual and methodological synthesis to clarify chain-wide efficiency in indu...
This study explores the intellectual landscape and methodological evolution of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in the context of renewable energy and carbon emission efficiency. Using bibliometric techniques and data extracted from the Web of Science...
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the fastest growing approaches to solving management problems for the multi-criteria evaluation of the efficiency of homogeneous production systems. The general trend in recent years has been the development...
Modern fire alarm systems are essential for public safety, yet they often fail to exploit the wealth of historical alarm data and the complex spatiotemporal dependencies inherent in urban environments. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are currently among...
The concept of merging pre-processed textile materials with tailored mechanical properties into soft matrices is so far rarely used in the field of soft robotics. The herein presented work takes the advantages of textile materials in elastomer matric...
This study conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of research applying data envelopment analysis (DEA) to the evaluation of sustainability and performance in complex socioeconomic systems between 2010 and mid-2025. DEA has become an increasin...
Network models provide a general representation of inter-connected system dynamics. This ability to connect systems has led to a proliferation of network models for economic productivity analysis, primarily estimated non-parametrically using Data Env...
An important research direction in the field of traffic light recognition of autonomous systems is to accurately obtain the region of interest (ROI) of the image through the multi-sensor assisted method. Dynamic evaluation of the performance of the m...
Early prediction of epileptic seizures remains an active research area in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) analysis. Current methods focused on this topic often rely on handcrafted features that insufficiently capture the multiscale nonlinear dynam...
Reliability allocation can reasonably determine the reliability index of each unit in the system to ensure product quality in design, manufacturing, testing and acceptance. In the design process of the smart meter, the preliminary reliability allocat...
Low-Power Wide-Area Networks based on LoRa are widely deployed in smart city, agricultural, and environmental monitoring, where their constrained energy budget makes them vulnerable to radio-frequency jamming. (1) Background: a node that keeps transm...
This paper develops a new network data envelopment analysis (DEA) model that simultaneously integrates the non-convex metafrontier and undesirable outputs and which is super efficient at performing dynamic network slacks-based measures. The model is...
The objective of this work is to analyze the relevance of governance (corporate and ownership concentration) for the divisional inter-temporal dynamic efficiency in piped natural gas utilities in Brazil. The main innovative contribution of this work...
Financial distress is a research topic in finance that has attracted attention from academia following past financial crises. Although previous studies associate financial distress with several elements, the relationship between distress and ESG has...
Shared resources are common among supply chain partners and also occur in multiple linked stages of an internal network. The sharing of these resources impacts the organization’s profits. This study is focused on the potential benefits of resou...
The need for integrated methodological framework for sustainability assessment has been widely discussed and is urgent due to increasingly complex environmental system problems. These problems have impacts on ecosystems and human well-being which rep...
Under the background of global green sustainable development and the urgent need to understand complex regional innovation systems, it is crucial to scientifically assess China’s Tourism Green Innovation Efficiency (TGIE) as a dynamic networked...
As a major energy producer and consumer, China has witnessed rapid growth in carbon emissions, which are closely linked to changes in regional climate and the environment. Water, energy, and food (W-E-F) are the three most critical components of huma...
The Paris Agreement marks global response to climate change after 2020 and China has proposed the dual carbon goals, carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, in response. This paper analyses the contribution to dual carbon goals by analyzing the impact...
Water shortage has become a serious problem in the world, and low water efficiency is the key to industrial and agricultural production and sustainable economic development. Based on the data of 30 provinces (municipalities) in China from 2010 to 201...
