• Abstract: This study preprocessed 2000-2019 energy consumption data for 46 key Sichuan industries using matrix normalization. DBSCAN clustering identified 16 feature classes to objectively group industries. Penalized regression models were then applied for their advantages in overfitting control, high-dimensional data processing, and feature selection - well-suited for the complex energy data. Results showed the second cluster around coal had highest emissions due to production needs. Emissions from gasoline-focused and coke-focused clusters were also significant. Based on this, emission reduction suggestions included clean coal technologies, transportation management, coal-electricity replacement in steel, and industry standardization. The research introduced unsupervised learning to objectively select factors and aimed to explore new emission reduction avenues. In summary, the study identified industry groupings, assessed emissions drivers, and proposed scientific reduction strategies to better inform decision-making using algorithms like DBSCAN and penalized regression models.

  The paper studies a Markov network model for unbalanced data, aiming to solve the problems of classification bias and insufficient minority class recognition ability. The experimental results show that the Markov network performs well in indicators such as weighted accuracy, F1 score, and AUC-ROC. Future research can focus on efficient model training, structural optimization, and deep learning integration in large-scale unbalanced data environments.

  We focus on how likely it is that a RAG model's prediction is incorrect, resulting in uncontrollable risks in real-world applications. Our research identifies two critical latent factors affecting RAG's confidence in its predictions. We develop a counterfactual prompting framework that induces the models to alter these factors and analyzes the effect on their answers.

  We study sample efficient reinforcement learning (RL) under the general framework of interactive decision making. We propose a novel complexity measure, generalized eluder coefficient (GEC), which characterizes the fundamental tradeoff between exploration and exploitation. We show that RL problems with low GEC form a remarkably rich class, which subsumes low Bellman eluder dimension problems, bilinear class, low witness rank problems, PO-bilinear class, and generalized regular PSR.
