This article investigates deterministic chaos in the simplified Selkov model in the absence of external excitation. Specifically, this work studies the nonlinear dynamics, the transition to chaos, and the coexistence of attractors in a new jerk-modified Rayleigh oscillator derived from a Rayleigh oscillator originating from the Selkov system. By applying Tikhonov’s theorem to the Selkov model, the equation of the modified autonomous Rayleigh oscillator is determined. Through conversion, the equation of a new jerk-modified Rayleigh oscillator is obtained, and the fixed points of this new system are determined and then analyzed. The emergence of complex phenomena is studied through numerical simulations based on the direct integration of the system via the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method. The influence of system parameters on the transition to chaos and the coexistence of attractors is studied using parametric diagrams, attraction basins, bifurcation diagrams, the Lyapunov exponent, time series, and phase portraits. Thus, the parameters that promote and those that prevent the appearance of chaotic dynamics and the coexistence of attractors are identified. The autonomous-modified jerk-Rayleigh oscillator is implemented in OrCAD PSpice software to confirm the numerical simulation results. Finally, a linear controller is proposed to eliminate chaotic dynamics and the coexistence of attractors from this new jerk-modified Rayleigh oscillator.</p>","PeriodicalId":50653,"journal":{"name":"Complexity","volume":"2026 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/cplx/2733615","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149146961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing deep learning approaches suffer from heavy reliance on manual annotation and limited adaptability to annotation-scarce settings, resulting in suboptimal segmentation performance and poor generalization across diverse clinical environments.

In this approach, the coarse segmentation stage employs lightweight supervised training with limited annotations, while the fine segmentation stage achieves superior accuracy through fully unsupervised, zero-shot inference leveraging SAM2.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Methods&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;We developed the Centroid-SAM2 model, a minimally supervised tongue image segmentation framework. The first stage employs a coarse segmentation model fine-tuned on 120 annotated images from an independent public dataset, while the second stage leverages the zero-shot capabilities of SAM2 with no labeled data for training or inference; annotations on the target datasets are used solely for evaluation. The approach integrates DeepLabV3_ResNet50 for initial coarse segmentation, followed by a novel centroid coordinate algorithm based on image moments to automatically extract precise guidance points.

This study develops a scenario-based multiperiod multiobjective mixed-integer linear programming framework for strategic airport capacity planning under alternative policy-driven demand conditions. The model jointly determines continuous component-level expansion and discrete infrastructure projects while explicitly representing terminal, runway, and gate capacities. Investment strategies are evaluated in terms of present-value cost, unmet passenger demand, component-level congestion pressure, and reserve-capacity shortfall. The framework was implemented in YALMIP under MATLAB R2026a and applied to four major Saudi airports over the 2026–2034 planning horizon. Six scenarios represent moderate and high demand growth, constrained funding, reserve-oriented planning, pilgrimage demand pressure, and FIFA World Cup 2034 readiness. The scenarios are deterministic, independent, and nonprobabilistic. Lexicographic objective normalization, systematic weight analysis, and parameter-sensitivity experiments are used to evaluate the stability of the resulting plans. Under moderate growth, forecast demand can be accommodated with a present-value investment of 24.900 billion SAR and no unmet demand. Under sustained high growth, however, conventional project options and constrained budgets lead to substantial congestion and capacity shortfalls. Under the assumed World Cup demand multipliers, project catalogue, budget conditions, and 10% reserve requirement, the model identifies a feasible 2034 capacity plan requiring a present-value investment of 102.373 billion SAR. This value should be interpreted as a model-based planning estimate under the specified assumptions rather than as a forecast of actual national event-readiness expenditure. The framework provides a structured basis for comparing phased airport-capacity expansion strategies under alternative demand and policy conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":50653,"journal":{"name":"Complexity","volume":"2026 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/cplx/6737547","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149048303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, the WASPAS technique has been used for obtaining the hybrid multicriteria ranking, which will be used for comparing purposes, whereas the linear regression technique has been applied as a basic predictive model.

Due to the rapid growing of development in machine learning and artificial intelligence, data-driven methods have been widely used for predicting and analysing nonlinear dynamical systems. Neural network-based architectures have demonstrated strong potential in learning hidden dynamics directly from time-series data. In this study, a data-driven framework is proposed for modeling and analysis of fuzzy-fractional chaotic systems with special focus on Lorenz, Chen, and Burke–Shaw type models. Uncertainty and imprecision in system parameters are incorporated through triangular fuzzy numbers, leading to fuzzy-fractional formulations capable of capturing richer dynamical behaviours. Time-series trajectories are initially generated using an explicit fractional-order Runge–Kutta scheme and subsequently employed to train an autoregressive residual multilayer perceptron to learn the underlying system evolution directly from data. The proposed learning architecture effectively produces long-term dynamics of considered systems. To quantify the performance of the proposed residual multilayer perceptron, a comprehensive dynamical analysis is conducted through computation of the full Lyapunov spectrum and Kaplan–Yorke dimension, providing insights into sensitivity to initial conditions, attractor dimensionality, and emergent chaotic behaviour. The results demonstrate that proposed framework offers a robust and scalable approach for capturing, analyzing, and quantifying complexity in fuzzy-fractional chaotic systems, thereby contributing to the understanding of uncertainty-driven dynamics in nonlinear complex systems. Notably, hyperchaotic behaviour characterised by two positive Lyapunov exponents is detected in the fuzzy-fractional Chen system under six out of nine parameter configurations. In fuzzy-fractional Burke–Shaw system, hyperchaos is also observed for some combinations of fractional-order and fuzzy cut level.</p>","PeriodicalId":50653,"journal":{"name":"Complexity","volume":"2026 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/cplx/5409055","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148942362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing combination rules set this balance using purely statistical criteria or a linear projection on macroeconomic uncertainty, implicitly assuming that uncertainty shifts the optimal balance by the same amount in all market states. This study examines whether uncertainty instead carries nonlinear and state-dependent information about the optimal balance, and whether exploiting that information improves out-of-sample prediction. Using monthly returns and 94 firm characteristics for U.S. common stocks from January 1990 to December 2025, together with five uncertainty indices covering policy, financial, real, macroeconomic, and market-implied uncertainty, we measure nonlinear and directional dependence with mutual information and transfer entropy and develop a nearest-neighbor forecasting rule, MI–kNN–LASSO, which sets the balance by comparing the current uncertainty environment with historically similar states. All five indices relate to the optimal balance more strongly than linear correlations suggest, with macroeconomic uncertainty providing the most reliable predictive signal. The proposed rule forecasts the combination state far more accurately than the linear benchmark and earns a long–short return of 63 basis points per month with a smaller maximum drawdown.

The paper first introduces the shared dynamic structure underlying MARL and economic decision problems, including Markov decision processes and Bellman equations, and clarifies the distinction between adaptive agents and rule-based agents. It then organizes existing applications of MARL in four domains: macroeconomics, finance, market design, and behavioral economics. Across these domains, the review identifies the main research themes, common modeling choices, and current limitations. A central argument of the paper is that progress in this field depends not only on stronger algorithms but also on clearer standards for economic interpretation, model design, and empirical credibility. To address this issue, the paper develops a trustworthiness-centered evaluation perspective and outlines an operational architecture for applying MARL in economic research.
