A combination of software, including Revit, Navisworks, and Practical Structural Design and Construction (PKPM) software, is used to reduce costs by refining the specifications and dimensions of components, streamlining the variety of molds, enhancing design performance through rigorous component collision inspections and structural optimization, and ensuring cost-effectiveness. The integration of building integration modeling (BIM) visualization significantly diminishes errors attributable to information asymmetry and minimized material wastage stemming from production inaccuracies. The implementation of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) information exchange platform enables real-time component tracking, provides insights into the transportation dynamics of these components, and facilitates cost optimization during the transportation phase. Moreover, simulations conducted using Fuzor software preemptively identify potential construction site issues. There is a substantial cost savings of 710,000 yuan.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141826405","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}

A Cross-Domain Recommender (CDR) model that integrates comment knowledge enhancement and aspect-level user preference transfer (C-KE-AUT) was proposed to address the above issues. Firstly, an aspect-level user preference extraction model was constructed by combining the RoBERTa word embedding model, high-level feature representation based on Transformer, and aspect-level attention-learning methods. Then, a user aspect-level preference cross-domain transfer model was constructed based on a two-stage generative adversarial network that can transfer the aspect-level interest preferences of users in the source domain to the target domain with sparse data. The experimental results on the Amazon 2018 comment dataset indicated that the recommendation performance of the proposed C-KE-AUT model was significantly superior to other advanced comparative models.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141655797","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 findings revealed that, as the project advanced, the planned cost exceeded the actual cost by nearly 100,000 yuan in the final stage.

Existing literature has explored the reasons for continuance and discontinuance by taking into account both rational and emotional factors. However, one question remains unanswered: Why do some users depend more on rational factors for decision-making, while others rely more on emotional factors? This study addresses this question by integrating cognitive decision-making styles and the fear of making incorrect decisions into traditional continued usage models. Data were gathered from 285 TV users and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results demonstrate that the introduced constructs moderated the direct effects of rational and emotional factors. The contribution of the study lies in incorporating the underlying cognitive processes of decision-making. It presents two actionable variables that managers can utilize to categorize their customers and enhance the effectiveness of their use continuance strategies.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43540190","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}

However, the current credit system in China requires further refinement. Thus, the credit loan business is associated with certain risks, and company profits are often negatively impacted by clients who default on loans. Based on the data, this article leverages the economic and financial theories of consumer credit risk control to construct a logistic model to predict customers' default probability. Then, a quadratic regression model is established to determine the optimal commission structure to balance profitability with incentives from retail stores. Results show that the macro-level variables are negatively associated with the probability of good behavior. The personal level variables exhibit a positive association. In addition, a negative coefficient in the quadratic profit equation indicates the presence of an inverted “U” relationship between profit and commission.
