Link prediction in directed network is attracting growing interest among many network scientists. Compared with predicting the existence of a link, determining its direction is more complicated. In this paper, we propose an efficient solution named Local Directed Path to predict link direction....

Plenty of algorithms for link prediction have been proposed to extract missing information, identify spurious interactions, reconstruct networks, and so on. Stochastic block models are one of the most accurate methods among all of them. However, this algorithm is designed only for simple graphs...

The combination of microalga-based biodiesel production and wastewater treatment is a promising approach to solve problems related to the energy crisis as well as eutrophication in bodies of water. A freshwater microalga, Chlorella ellipsoidea YJ1, with a high capacity for biomass production and...

The body of research on CALL tasks and topics grows daily; however, there are still a number of areas that are underrepresented in the literature. While there are many gaps in the CALL research to address, this article specifically focuses on eight gaps, chosen because of their perceived...

The Engle-Granger two-step method is used to test the determinants of the long-run decline of China's monetary velocity based on two stages (1978-1992 and 1993-2008). High growth of household savings and economic monetization have significant effects on monetary velocity, but interest rates and...
