摘要：In this study, a novel hybrid intelligent mining system integrating rough sets theory and support vector machines is developed to extract efficiently association rules from original information table for credit risk evaluation and analysis. In the proposed hybrid intelligent system, support vector machines are used as a tool to extract typical features and filter its noise, which are different from the previous studies where rough sets were only used as a preprocessor for support vector machines. Such an approach could reduce the information table and generate the final knowledge from the reduced information table by rough sets. Therefore, the proposed hybrid intelligent system overcomes the difficulty of extracting rules from a trained support vector machine classifier and possesses the robustness which is lacking for rough-set-based approaches. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid intelligent system is illustrated with two real-world credit datasets.

摘要：谐音早已成为一种广泛使用的重要广告语言工具,但尚未有研究考察谐音对广告效果的影响。基于失谐理论,本文通过7个实验(N=2456),考察了谐音对广告评价的影响,以及其作用机制和边界条件。结果发现,谐音能够促使消费者产生更为积极的广告评价,且这一影响藉由新颖性、有趣性的链式中介而实现。然而,谐音对广告评价的这一积极效应会受到消费者新颖性寻求水平、产品消费风险、广告诉求的调节。具体而言,当消费者的新颖性寻求水平较低,或者产品消费风险很高、广告突出权威性时,谐音对广告评价的这一影响会受到削弱。本文结论不仅丰富了谐音启动和失谐理论方面的研究,也为企业广告实践和营销沟通提供了行之有效的管理洞察。

摘要：We report the design and fabrication of a novel and fully integrated polymer-based centrifugal microfluidic disc for rapid automatic allergens detection. All essential steps for a single test including flow valving, sequencing, mixing, separation, extraction, and sedimentation for final detection are automatically conducted within 30 min on a centrifugal microfluidic disc. Our design features a siphon-based valving and analyte extraction structure where the released analyte is separated and subsequently extracted by a siphon valve into the detection chamber. Incorporating the siphon valve and a series of capillary valves, we realize automated detection of allergic reaction on a centrifugal microfluidic disc.
