Education through Novel - A Study on Revenge Stories in Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes
No full textThe Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes written by Ji Yun in his old age is as well-known as “Strange Tales of Liaozhai
.” It is a novel for “admonishing people, increasing knowledge, and conducting textual research.” Lu Xun praised
it as “The book used supernatural beings to imply all the social phenomena and the author used the perspectives of ghost spirit to express his own opinion.” In addition to the disclosure of many local customs and practices, scenery
, historic monuments, and the description of textual criticism on historical events, which could help increase knowledge, the meanings of the stories about supernatural beings could further educate and admonish people. Revenge is a natural instinct of people and owing to the influence of historical cause, the Confucian revenge concept “repaying injustice with justice” strongly influenced people since ancient times. However, during the reign of Emperors Qianlong and Jiaqing, the heyday started to decline. The corruption of officials and extreme disparity between the rich and the poor led to a lot of wrongful imprisonment and the oppression of people. Under the long-term imbalanced circumstance, the vengeance of people in pursuit of fairness and justice rose. Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes included 1196 articles and approximately 10% of them were revenge stories. The reason for writing such a large number of revenge stories deserved investigation.
Based on past studies, the study uses text analysis to investigate Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes from the perspective of revenge. An in-depth investigation i performed to understand the reason why Ji Yun wrote revenge stories. The investigation is divided into seven chapters for analysis: Chapter 1 introduces the research motives and purposes, and summarizes past studies. Chapter 2 traces the motives of vengeance, describes the social and literature background when Ji Yun wrote the Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes, and investigates the internal and external factors which aroused vengeance. Chapters 3 and 4 analyze the revenge motives from the revenge consciousness of different subjects and the implied meanings of the author. Chapter 5 presents the methods of revenge, and analyzes and investigates them according to their regularity. Chapter 6 investigates the meaning of Ji Yun's promotion of revenge concept and literary value of the book. The educational implied meanings in the text are summarized to present the ideal of the subjects who took revenges. Chapter 7 analyzes the contribution of Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes to the succession and development of mythical stories in the Six Dynasties, and sums up the educational function of different
schools of thought.
The study investigates the social and cultural background during the reign of Emperors Qianlong and Jiaqing based on the investigation on the revenge stories of Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes. It also discusses how Ji Yuan used the writing of revenge stories to express his expectation of social justice, fairness, and ethical rectification. Moreover, it probes into how he used different revenge methods to rectify social norm and promoted the idea that the meaning of revenge concept was relied on four aspects, the concern over the equality of people, the attention to the real accomplishment of noblemen, the pursuit of officials of just, and the promotion of rational revenge. It could be inferred that Jin Yun wrote revenge stories in order to promote the educational meaning of eliminating the evil and promoting the good in the hope that the social orders could be restored, and people's mind could be opened to care for those in need. To sum up, the study enriches the research on the book Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes from the perspective of the revenge of the subjects.紀昀晚年所作的《閱微草堂筆記》與《聊齋誌異》齊名，是一部「寓勸懲、廣見聞、資考證」的小說，魯迅稱其：「凡測鬼神之情狀，發人間之幽微，托狐鬼以抒己見者」，揭示書中除有許多風土人物、山川古蹟、史蹟考證可長見聞的描寫之外，更有談狐說鬼、寄寓勸懲之教化意義存乎其中。復仇是人自有的本能反應，在歷史因緣下，儒家「以直報怨」的復仇觀自古根植人心，而乾嘉時期是清朝由盛轉衰的時期，吏治腐敗、貧富懸殊甚大，產生許多冤獄與備受壓迫的人民，長期處在失衡的情況，人民追求公平的復仇之心自然而起。《閱微草堂筆記》凡一千一百九十六則，復仇故事約占十分之一，可謂存量豐富，其大量書寫復仇故事的意圖何在？頗值得探勘。

A HIERATICAL CONTROL FRAMEWORK FOR ASSESSING EV’S IMPACT ON RESIDENTIAL ENERGY FLEXIBILITY
No full textWith the development of the power grid, the world\u27s industries and economies have experienced a significant boost over the past centuries. However, as the demand for electricity from the grid continues to grow, utility markets face increasingly challenging tasks in balancing supply and demand. Additionally, integrating renewable energy sources such as solar, hydroelectric, and wind power into the grid adds further complexities to maintaining grid stability. In the United States, buildings account for about 76% of electricity consumption and 40% of greenhouse gas emissions, making them a major contributor to peak demand, which is nearly 80%. Therefore, buildings play a key role in enabling energy flexibility within the grid. Today, with the adoption of distributed energy resources (DERs) like photovoltaic (PV) systems, combined heat and power (CHP) units, and electric vehicles (EVs), buildings have become even better equipped to enhance energy flexibility. Notably, EVs have gained recognition for their ability to provide benefits to grid flexibility as their market share increases. However, due to a lack of data, there is a shortage of empirical evidence characterizing how EVs will impact energy flexibility. Also, there is no effective solution to better control the EV operations to fully unlock the potential of EVs to achieve energy flexibility. To fill in these gaps, this study examines the effects of EV charging and discharging behaviors by conducting a comprehensive analysis and optimization on a smart meter dataset, then expanding to an urban-scale simulation study through a data-driven approach for load data generation. It hypothesizes that an advanced hieratical control framework designs a personalized pricing structure, taking into account of diverse occupancy behaviors, can optimally regulate EV charging and discharging behaviors, while simultaneously providing grid services as peak load reduction, increasing grid profitability, reducing overall CO_2 emission, and lowering utility costs for users. Through data processing to understand diverse EV charging behaviors and occupancy schedules, this study developed a hierarchical control framework incorporating mutual optimization of EV charging/discharging scheduling and dynamic pricing. This empirical approach quantifies EV potential for enhancing residential grid flexibility while considering economic, environmental, and grid stability impacts. The study analyzed a smart meter dataset of 225 residential EV customers from Salt River Project (SRP) in Phoenix, Arizona. This community-scale analysis provided proof-of-concept validation before scaling up using a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (cGAN) to generate realistic building load profiles replicating measured data distributions for urban-scale simulation. The same control framework and data processing procedure follows the same as community-scale study. Community-scale results demonstrated the framework\u27s effectiveness across various control objectives, achieving daily averages of: 22.3% peak load reduction, 2.1% decrease in user electricity bills, 21.3% reduction in utility generation costs, 2.0% grid profitability increase, and 1.7 metric tons CO2 emission reductions. Urban-scale simulation revealed enhanced performance with 28.1% peak load reduction, 0.7% user bill reduction, 6.3% utility generation cost reduction, 1.3% grid profitability increase, and 1.3 metric tons CO2 reduction. This research contributes to understanding: 1) empirical evidence of EV flexibility potential from comprehensive smart meter data; 2) smart charging/discharging strategies incorporating user behavior insights; 3) innovative pricing schemas enabling energy flexibility while accounting for EVs\u27 unique grid role; and 4) scaling findings from measured data to urban-scale simulations exploring EV impact on grid stress relief
A278: The Effects of MTM-Based Stepped Behavior Change Intervention on Sedentary Lifestyle Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
No full textSedentary lifestyles are prevalent in the life patterns of community-dwelling older adults, who have been shown to be the most sedentary and physically inactive subgroup. Prolonged low energy expenditure during waking hours leads to an increased risk of non-communicable diseases and impairs physical functioning in older adults, negatively impacting their health outcomes. Therefore, interventions targeting changes in sedentary lifestyles are necessary to improve health behaviors in older adults. An experimental study was conducted to verify whether a sedentary lifestyle modification intervention based on the Multi-Theory Mode（MTM）and the staircase approach is more effective than conventional education in reducing sedentary time and improving physical activity levels, physical function, and quality of life among community-dwelling older people. Method: This trial was a multicenter, assessor-blinded, 18-week, two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. Study participants were recruited from May to August 2024 at two community health centers in Changchun, China. A total of 60 community-dwelling older adults with sedentary lifestyles (sedentary and physically inactive) were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. Participants in the intervention group received an MTM-based stepped sedentary lifestyle change intervention involving three thematic sessions (biweekly) and two telephone follow-up visits. The session topics were organized in a stepped manner with a rhythm of “Sedentary behavior↓→LPA↑→MVPA↑”. Participants in the control group received the usual care. Endpoints were collected at baseline, week 6, week 12, and week 18. The primary endpoint is the change in self-reported sedentary time. Secondary endpoints include the changes in screen-based sedentary time, sedentary behavior characteristics, step count (pedometer-measured), time spent in LPA and MVPA, SPPB score, anthropometric parameters, blood pressure, and SF-12 score. Of the 60 randomized participants (70.2 ±4.3 years; 46 men [76.66%]), 51 completed outcome measurements at the four time points. Compared with the control group, participants in the intervention group showed a significant reduction(difference [95% CI]) in sedentary time (-81.8min [-130.570 to -33.135]), screen-based sedentary time (-48.4min [-88.6 to -8.1]), and longest continuous sedentary time (-40.6min [-64.3 to -16.8]) were significantly reduced; Weekly MVPA time ( 93.0min [59.0 to 126.9]), step count (2427.8step [23.0 to 4832.4]), SPPB score (0.9 [ 0.1 to 1.8])were significantly improved. Compared with conventional nursing, the MTM-based staircase approach behavior change intervention can significantly reduce sedentary behavior, increase physical activity level, promote physical function, and maintain the health-related quality of life of older adults
Physical activity can improve cognition in patients with Alzheimer’s disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
No full textZhen Du,1 Yuewei Li,1 Jinwei Li,1 Changli Zhou,1 Feng Li,1,* Xige Yang2,* 1Department of Internal Nursing, School of Nursing, Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, 130020, People’s Republic of China; 2Department of Anesthesiology, The First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, 130021, People’s Republic of China *These authors contributed equally to this work Background/objective: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is mainly characterized by decline of cognitive functions such as memory and learning, which has a high prevalence and poor drug efficacy in treatment regimes. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of exercise on cognitive function in patients diagnosed with AD.Methods: The bibliographic databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase, and Web of Science) and four Chinese databases (Wanfang data, CBM, CNKI, and VIP) were searched to identify RCTs published in any language between January 1, 1960, and January 1, 2018. Only peer-reviewed articles and RCTs were included. The collected data were analyzed by Review Manager (5.3).Results: Overall, 869 patients diagnosed with AD were included from 13 RCTs. Patients in the intervention group received pure exercise interventions and a cognitive test. Although there was heterogeneity in intervention methods and cognitive measures among studies, meta-analysis (seven studies) supports positive effects of physical activity on cognitive function of patients with AD (mean difference [MD] =2.53, the 95% CI=0.84 to 4.22, test for overall effect: Z=2.93 [P=0.003]). Eight studies demonstrated that exercise improves cognitive function for individuals with AD. However, the remaining five studies did not display a beneficial effect of exercise on cognitive function in patients with AD.Conclusion: This meta-analysis and systematic review indicated that exercise intervention might improve the cognitive function of AD or slow down the decline of cognition; however, this relationship was not always true across studies. RCTs with clear intervention criteria, large samples, and long-term follow-up are needed in the future to demonstrate the benefits of exercise for cognitive function in AD patients. Keywords: Alzheimer’s disease, exercise, cognitive function, randomized controlled tria

A review on all-perovskite multiferroic tunnel junctions
No full textAlthough the basic concept was proposed only about 10 years ago, multiferroic tunnel junctions (MFTJs) with a ferroelectric barrier sandwiched between two ferromagnetic electrodes have already drawn considerable interests, driven mainly by its potential applications in multi-level memories and electric field controlled spintronics. The purpose of this article is to review the recent progress of all-perovskite MFTJs. Starting from the key functional properties of the tunneling magnetoresistance, tunneling electroresistance, and tunneling electromagnetoresistance effects, we discuss the main origins of the tunneling electroresistance effect, recent progress in achieving multilevel resistance states in a single device, and the electrical control of spin polarization and transport through the ferroelectric polarization reversal of the tunneling barrier
论新加坡地铁站名称翻译中的意识形态取向 = A study on the ideological orientation of Singapore's translated MRT station names
No full text一个国家的统治者能够以非强制手段在潜移默化中对人民进行意识形态的灌输。在新加坡的社会情景下，地铁站名称便是一种能反映意识形态与文化及追溯历史的媒介，而翻译在其中繁衍着重要的角色。新加坡地铁做为1965年独立以来，在经济发展和城市规划方面做出的重要突破，已经成为新加坡人民日常生活中尤为重要的一部分。其他地铁站名称不但能反映出新加坡的多元文化与历史，也是统治者能借以传达意识形态的有力工具。新加坡有相当一部分地铁站名称都源自街道名称，有许多学者都对街道和地方名称的由来进行了研究与分析。本文则从“目的论” （Skopus Theory）的角度着重探究新加坡地铁站译名与其意识形态的关联，并且尝试分析地铁站译名中的意义，看译者在受到新加坡政府这一“赞助人”（patronage)的影响下，采取何种不同的方法对地铁名称进行翻译，以达到其目的性。本文也将结合三个主要层面：（一）新加坡的语言和种族和谐政策；（二）新加坡政府所要建构的国家认同：以及（三）新加坡历史背景下的后殖民主义，进行讨论，以此探究新加坡独立以来的意识形态取向。A ruler of a country is able to subliminally implant in its people an ideology by non-mandatory means. In the social context of Singapore, name of MRT stations is a type of medium that can reflect its ideology, culture as well as history, and translation plays an important role in it. Since the independence of Singapore in 1965, the Singapore Mass Rapid Transit (SMRT) became a huge breakthrough in the area of economic development as well as urban planning, and it became a particularly important part of the local people. The name of the MRT stations not only can reflect the multiculturalism and history of Singapore but also became a powerful tool that the ruler can utilize to convey its ideology. There are a considerable number of MRT station names that are originated from streets names. Numerous academics have conducted research and analysis on the origins of streets, roads and places names. This thesis focuses on analyzing the relationship between the translated names of MRT stations and the ideology of the Singapore government from the perspective of Skopos Theory. It will also attempt to analyze the meaning of the translated MRT stations, looking into how translators under the influence of “patronage”, the Singapore government, use different translation methods in the translation of MRT station names to achieve its purpose. This thesis will also incorporate the following three perspectives: (1) Singapore’s policy of language and racial harmony; (2) the national identity to be forged by the Singapore government; and (3) post-colonialism under the context of Singapore history, to discuss and explore Singapore’s ideological orientation since its independence.Bachelor of Art
Joint Data and Feature Augmentation for Self-Supervised Representation Learning on Point Clouds
No full textTo deal with the exhausting annotations, self-supervised representation
learning from unlabeled point clouds has drawn much attention, especially
centered on augmentation-based contrastive methods. However, specific
augmentations hardly produce sufficient transferability to high-level tasks on
different datasets. Besides, augmentations on point clouds may also change
underlying semantics. To address the issues, we propose a simple but efficient
augmentation fusion contrastive learning framework to combine data
augmentations in Euclidean space and feature augmentations in feature space. In
particular, we propose a data augmentation method based on sampling and graph
generation. Meanwhile, we design a data augmentation network to enable a
correspondence of representations by maximizing consistency between augmented
graph pairs. We further design a feature augmentation network that encourages
the model to learn representations invariant to the perturbations using an
encoder perturbation. We comprehensively conduct extensive object
classification experiments and object part segmentation experiments to validate
the transferability of the proposed framework. Experimental results demonstrate
that the proposed framework is effective to learn the point cloud
representation in a self-supervised manner, and yields state-of-the-art results
in the community. The source code is publicly available at:
