Enhancing Empirical Asset Pricing Models: A Computational Approach to Cleaning High-Frequency Trading Data Using Outlier Detection Algorithms
Article thumbnail
This article discusses the problems and possible solutions for HFT data in empirical asset price models. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and Fama-French three-factor model are validated with high-frequency data before and after cleaning the data using advanced outlier detection methods. It use the compute tools like Isolation Forest, DBSCAN, and RPCA to spot and correct the inaccurate data points that often distort financial models. Models accuracy and robustness were improved dramatically following the data cleaning, with CAPM and Fama-French models receiving an accuracy enhancement of 0.75 to 0.89 and 0.78 to 0.85, respectively. The paper also examines classical data cleaning processes versus computational methods and the efficiency of the latter. The impact for financial modeling and asset management is far-reaching, with a message that better data means better choices and more predictable models. These results provide evidence of the importance of advanced data cleaning in high frequency trading and their ability to enhance decision making in financial markets.

Deformation and Maximum Quadrupole Moment for a Single Neutron Star
The emergence of gravitational-wave astronomy has enabled us to unveil events that were previously concealed: compact binary coalescences. Neutron stars have been recognized as significant sources of gravitational radiation, thus triggering a timely exploration of their deformations. Through gravitational waves, scientists are presented with a unique opportunity to study the interiors of neutron stars and deepen the understanding of the equation of state of ultra-dense nuclear matter. In this article, reflects the necessary condition for the generation of gravitational radiation, namely the time-varying quadrupole moment, and calculate the ellipticity resulting from a neutron star’s simplistic model. Subsequently, this article examine Ushomirsky’s research on the maximum quadrupole moment, in which this term does not show any explicit dependence on mass. Finally, the author makes a comparison between simplistic model and Ushomirsky, Haskell, gives a estimation on ellipticity and maximum quadrupole moment, expecting a potential improvement on the model would be incoporating dynamic terms.,such as accretion and star quakes.

Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning in Cross-Cultural Language Acquisition: From Machine Translation to Cultural Context Understanding
Article thumbnail
Our research examines how Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning methods help learners better understand foreign languages and cultures. Our research showed that advanced language technology tools including machine translation speech recognition and sentiment analysis help students learn both language skills and cultural understanding better. Our research team tested 100 participants across English, Chinese, and Spanish with 50 participants in each group. The experimental group studied with NLP and DL platform-based language learning platforms but the control group used traditional education methods. Researchers tested cultural knowledge and language skills for 12 weeks by giving tests before and after the experiment. The experimental group made better progress in speaking English (35%) and understanding Chinese culture (45%) compared to the control group. The learning system used NLP and DL tools to provide real-time feedback and context analysis which improved both the personalization and depth of the educational experience. These technologies show how they can enhance language and cultural learning in modern education so students benefit from them.

Designing Wind-dispersed Microfliers for Early Wildfire Warning: Aerodynamic Insights Inspired by the Glider-shaped Alsomitra Macrocarpa Seeds
Article thumbnail
Wildfires not only pose a danger to humans and animals, they are also harmful to the climate and air quality by producing vast quantities of CO2. Early wildfire warning systems are crucial for minimizing environmental damage, economic losses, and threats to human life. Current unmanned aerial system for wildfire detection is limited by its low-capacity power source, which significantly reduce its flight stability and travel distance. This work designs wind-dispersed microflyer system for early wildfire warning, inspired by the glider-shaped Alsomitra Macrocarpa seeds. Famous for remarkable aerodynamic stability and exceptionally low terminal velocity, the seeds of this plant have large and papery wings and can glide long distances without reliance on gusts or updrafts. The aerodynamic analysis and wind tunnel experiment were conducted utilizing the shapes of these seeds. The analysis revealed that the Alsomitra Macrocarpa seed has an excellent aerodynamic shape with weak flow separation, which is a key reason for its superior lift-to-drag ratio. The designed microflyer with a sensor will be deployed from the air and monitor wildfire-related parameters like temperature effectively and reliably, demonstrating its potential for long-distance wind-assisted fire warning system.

Article thumbnail
This paper delves into the evolution of airfoils and the various design methods that have been utilized over time. The application of airfoils, which is crucial to aircraft design, pertains to the shaping of wings, compressors, and turbine blades, significantly impacting lift and drag forces. Historical developments in airfoil design have seen transitions from basic shapes to refined, mathematically defined profiles. This study particularly emphasizes the CST (Class function/Shape function Thickness distribution) Method as an advanced and efficient approach for airfoil generation and optimization. Using Python3 and the application Profili, different airfoil shapes are computed and evaluated through numerical simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics. The simulations aimed to optimize several performance characteristics such as the lift coefficient, pressure distribution, and maximum angle of attack. The results highlight the enhanced performance of the newly generated airfoil compared to traditional designs, with a noticeable increase in maximum lift coefficient and a smoother pressure profile. This research illustrates the potential of the CST method coupled with computational tools to innovate airfoil designs, offering significant improvements for future applications. Future work will focus on optimizing CST parameters for specific performance criteria, extending the versatility and efficiency of the airfoil design process.
