The entropy weight method [47,48] is an objective valuation method that uses the disorder degree of information to measure the utility value of information. According to the difference of each index, the entropy weight of each index is determined by information entropy and its weight is modified...
Review Reports Versions Notes Abstract The estimation of ecosystem service value of water resources in the Tarim River Basin is of great significance for resource allocation management and ecological protection. However, there is still no unified and complete evaluation method for the ecosystem service...
Versions Notes Abstract Private vehicle travel is the most basic mode of transportation, so that an effective way to control the real-world fuel consumption rate of light-duty vehicles plays a vital role in promoting sustainable economic growth as well as achieving a green low-carbon society. The...
Versions Notes Abstract The scientific estimation of carbon budgets induced by land use and land cover change (LUCC) can improve the accuracy of carbon budget estimates for terrestrial ecosystems and deepen our understanding of the future carbon sink potential of these ecosystems. Previous studies have...
One of the widely used methods in real estate valuation is hedonic pricing modeling [14,15,16]. Hedonic pricing modeling is based on the assumption that the price of a good is determined by both the internal characteristics of the item being sold and the environmental factors surrounding the ...
Given these challenges, the concepts of data importance and data valuation are particularly pertinent to machine learning and explainability in the lithium–ion industry. Essentially, the goal is to determine which data are most valuable and crucial to the modelling activities and to prioritise the co...
Quantification of water losses (WL) in water distribution networks (WDNs) is a crucial task towards the development of proper strategies to reduce them. Currently, WL estimation methods rely on semi-empirical assumptions and different implementation stra
