    Integrated Node Encoder for Labelled Textual Networks

    Full text link
    Voluminous works have been implemented to exploit content-enhanced network embedding models, with little focus on the labelled information of nodes. Although TriDNR leverages node labels by treating them as node attributes, it fails to enrich unlabelled node vectors with the labelled information, which leads to the weaker classification result on the test set in comparison to existing unsupervised textual network embedding models. In this study, we design an integrated node encoder (INE) for textual networks which is jointly trained on the structure-based and label-based objectives. As a result, the node encoder preserves the integrated knowledge of not only the network text and structure, but also the labelled information. Furthermore, INE allows the creation of label-enhanced vectors for unlabelled nodes by entering their node contents. Our node embedding achieves state-of-the-art performances in the classification task on two public citation networks, namely Cora and DBLP, pushing benchmarks up by 10.0\% and 12.1\%, respectively, with the 70\% training ratio. Additionally, a feasible solution that generalizes our model from textual networks to a broader range of networks is proposed.Comment: 7 page

    A Novel Distributed Representation of News (DRNews) for Stock Market Predictions

    Full text link
    In this study, a novel Distributed Representation of News (DRNews) model is developed and applied in deep learning-based stock market predictions. With the merit of integrating contextual information and cross-documental knowledge, the DRNews model creates news vectors that describe both the semantic information and potential linkages among news events through an attributed news network. Two stock market prediction tasks, namely the short-term stock movement prediction and stock crises early warning, are implemented in the framework of the attention-based Long Short Term-Memory (LSTM) network. It is suggested that DRNews substantially enhances the results of both tasks comparing with five baselines of news embedding models. Further, the attention mechanism suggests that short-term stock trend and stock market crises both receive influences from daily news with the former demonstrates more critical responses on the information related to the stock market {\em per se}, whilst the latter draws more concerns on the banking sector and economic policies.Comment: 25 page

    Critical behaviors near the (tri-)critical end point of QCD within the NJL model

    Full text link
    We investigate the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and its restoration at finite density and temperature within the two-flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, and mainly focus on the critical behaviors near the critical end point (CEP) and tricritical point (TCP) of quantum chromodynamics. The multi-solution region of the Nambu and Wigner ones is determined in the phase diagram for the massive and massless current quark, respectively. We use the various susceptibilities to locate the CEP/TCP and then extract the critical exponents near them. Our calculations reveal that the various susceptibilities share the same critical behaviors for the physical current quark mass, while they show different features in the chiral limit

    Swift Monitoring Observations of Mrk 231: Detection of Ultraviolet Variability

    Full text link
    We analyze 168 Swift monitoring observations of the nearest broad absorption line quasar Mrk 231 in the UV and X-ray bands, where we detect significant variability in the UV (∼\sim2246\AA) light curve with a null probability of 4.3×10−104.3\times10^{-10} for a constant model. Separately, from an archival sample of Swift observed active galactic nuclei (AGN), we measure the relation between UV excess variance and luminosity, finding that the normalized UV excess variance decreases with luminosity. Comparing to this mean relation, the normalized UV excess variance of Mrk 231 is smaller, however within the scatter characterising the full population. The upper limit of the X-ray excess variance is consistent with other AGN. The power spectrum density of the UV light curve can be well fit by a power law model with a slope of 1.82±0.141.82\pm0.14 between 10−7.510^{-7.5} and 10−610^{-6} Hz, consistent with those for typical AGN, with no obvious quasi-periodical oscillation peaks. The UV variability and its power spectrum suggest that a significant amount of the UV emission of Mrk 231 is from the accretion disk. The consistencies in the normalized UV variability and the shape of the power spectrum density between Mrk 231 and other normal AGN suggest that the origin of UV variability of broad absorption line quasars is similar to other AGN, and dust scattering at large scales such as the torus is not a dominating process for the UV emission of Mrk 231. Significant scattering, if present, is constrained to smaller than ∼\sim10 light days. We perform lagged correlation analysis between the UV and X-ray light curves and find the correlation insignificant within the present data.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted by MNRA
