After integrating relevant algorithms and technologies in artificial intelligence and machine learning, learning analysis has achieved higher analysis accuracy. In order to realize the recognition of students' classroom behaviors such as standing up, sitting up, and raising hands and improve the recognition accuracy and recall rate, multi-modal data such as human key point information and RGB images are used for experiments. To further improve the feature extraction capability of the model, features are extracted from the improved ResNet-50 and EfficientNet-B0 models, and bilinear fusion is performed to further improve the recognition accuracy of the models.","PeriodicalId":43384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cases on Information Technology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46479638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, the authors conducted a case study of a prominent real estate SOE in China to examine how SOEs can alter their project management practices and achieve a more sustainable business model. The findings reveal that adopting a whole life-cycle management system can promote value refinement, optimization, and co-creation, enabling SOEs to achieve value creation through sustainable management. This study offers useful insights for policymakers and business executives in China and contributes to the literature on sustainable project management and value creation.","PeriodicalId":43384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cases on Information Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42691722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, multi-scale convolution is used to capture local correlation of different granularity, so as to obtain more semantic information of different levels and form richer text representation. Then, a gating mechanism is introduced to control the path of sentiment information flowing to the aggregation layer. An improved krill swarm algorithm based on cosine control factor and Cauchy factor is proposed to solve the model. Finally, the full connection layer and argmax function are used to achieve sentiment classification. The experimental results show that compared with other advanced models, the proposed model can improve the accuracy of emotion classification by 2.3% and 0.8% respectively on two public data sets of IMDB and Yelp2014, and obtain the minimum root mean square error (RMSE).","PeriodicalId":43384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cases on Information Technology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47268168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The knowledge base of the system is structured using the knowledge model combining an ontology and the two-layer knowledge graph, called Rela-KG model. The searching problems for knowledge content are studied and solved. The technique is applied to create an intelligent querying system on the course of Database Foundation in Information Technology (IT) at the university.

Although some works have been proposed to address the dynamic change of recommendation, there are two issues with these methods. First, it only considers whether students have read the recommended articles. Second, these methods often fail to capture the real-time changing interests of users. To address the above challenges, a deep Q-network based recommendation framework was proposed. The authors further use the user's behavior and scores as reward information to get more user's feedback. In addition, a personalized adaptive module was introduced to capture the short-term interests on the fly and utilized the consistent loss of KL divergence to distill the knowledge from the online model. Extensive experiments on the offline and online dataset in the IWiLL website demonstrate the superior performance of the method.","PeriodicalId":43384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cases on Information Technology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44609704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The financial distress exposure for airport operations in Malaysia between 1991 and 2021 is given by Altman Z”-score and modelled by the multivariate generalized linear model (MGLM). Seven determinants contributing to the financial distress from literature are examined. The determinant series are fitted individually by using linear model with time series components and autoregressive integrated moving average models to forecast values for the next 10 financial years. Future short- to long-term memory effects following COVID-19 are apparent in time series plots. In the simulations, the MGLM procedure utilised Gaussian, gamma, and Cauchy probability distributions associated with expectations and challenges of doing business as well as uncertainties in the economy. The underlying trends of realistic, optimistic, and pessimistic financial distress outlooks insinuate that the increasing risk of financial distress of airport operations in Malaysia is expected to continue for the next decade.","PeriodicalId":43384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cases on Information Technology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43639113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
