Foresight of CO$_2$ emissions from fuel combustion is essential for policy-makers to identify ready targets for effective reduction plans and further to improve energy policies and plans. For the purpose of accurately forecasting the future development of Chinas CO$_2$ emissions from fuel combustion, a novel continuous fractional nonlinear grey Bernoulli model is developed in this paper. The fractional nonlinear grey Bernoulli model already in place is known that has a fixed first-order derivative that impairs the predictive performance to some extent. To address this problem, in the newly proposed model, a flexible variable is introduced into the order of derivative, freeing it from integer-order accumulation. In order to further improve the performance of the newly proposed model, a meta-heuristic algorithm, namely Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), is determined to the emerging coefficients. To demonstrate the effectiveness, two real examples and Chinas fuel combustion-related CO$_2$ emissions are used for model validation by comparing with other benchmark models, the results show the proposed model outperforms competitors. Thus, the future development trend of fuel combustion-related CO$_2$ emissions by 2023 are predicted, accounting for 10039.80 Million tons (Mt). In accordance with the forecasts, several suggestions are provided to curb carbon dioxide emissions.
Identifying university students weaknesses results in better learning and can function as an early warning system to enable students to improve. However, the satisfaction level of existing systems is not promising. New and dynamic hybrid systems are
Grey system theory is an important mathematical tool for describing uncertain information in the real world. It has been used to solve the uncertainty problems specially caused by lack of information. As a novel theory, the theory can deal with vario
As an essential characteristics of fractional calculus, the memory effect is served as one of key factors to deal with diverse practical issues, thus has been received extensive attention since it was born. By combining the fractional derivative with
We design and implement from scratch a new fuzzer called SIVO that refines multiple stages of grey-box fuzzing. First, SIVO refines data-flow fuzzing in two ways: (a) it provides a new taint inference engine that requires only logarithmic in the inpu
We report on observations of a gamma-ray burst (GRB 061126) with an extremely bright (R ~ 12 mag at peak) early-time optical afterglow. The optical afterglow is already fading as a power law 22 seconds after the trigger, with no detectable prompt con
