Acquiring reviewers for academic submissions is a challenging recommendation scenario. Recent graph learning-driven models have made remarkable progress in the field of recommendation, but their performance in the academic reviewer recommendation task may suffer from a significant false negative issue. This arises from the assumption that unobserved edges represent negative samples. In fact, the mechanism of anonymous review results in inadequate exposure of interactions between reviewers and submissions, leading to a higher number of unobserved interactions compared to those caused by reviewers declining to participate. Therefore, investigating how to better comprehend the negative labeling of unobserved interactions in academic reviewer recommendations is a significant challenge. This study aims to tackle the ambiguous nature of unobserved interactions in academic reviewer recommendations. Specifically, we propose an unsupervised Pseudo Neg-Label strategy to enhance graph contrastive learning (GCL) for recommending reviewers for academic submissions, which we call RevGNN. RevGNN utilizes a two-stage encoder structure that encodes both scientific knowledge and behavior using Pseudo Neg-Label to approximate review preference. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets demonstrate that RevGNN outperforms all baselines across four metrics. Additionally, detailed further analyses confirm the effectiveness of each component in RevGNN.

To address the time-consuming and computationally intensive issues of traditional ART algorithms for flame combustion diagnosis, inspired by flame simulation technology, we propose a novel representation method for flames. By modeling the luminous process of flames and utilizing 2D projection images for supervision, our experimental validation shows that this model achieves an average structural similarity index of 0.96 between actual images and predicted 2D projections, along with a Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio of 39.05. Additionally, it saves approximately 34 times the computation time and about 10 times the memory compared to traditional algorithms.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) provide powerful insights for brain neuroimaging technology from the view of graphical networks. However, most existing GNN-based models assume that the neuroimaging-produced brain connectome network is a homogeneous graph with single types of nodes and edges. In fact, emerging studies have reported and emphasized the significance of heterogeneity among human brain activities, especially between the two cerebral hemispheres. Thus, homogeneous-structured brain network-based graph methods are insufficient for modelling complicated cerebral activity states. To overcome this problem, in this paper, we present a heterogeneous graph neural network (HebrainGNN) for multimodal brain neuroimaging fusion learning. We first model the brain network as a heterogeneous graph with multitype nodes (i.e., left and right hemispheric nodes) and multitype edges (i.e., intra- and interhemispheric edges). Then, we propose a self-supervised pretraining strategy based on a heterogeneous brain network to address the potential overfitting problem caused by the conflict between a large parameter size and a small medical data sample size. Our results show the superiority of the proposed model over other existing methods in brain-related disease prediction tasks. Ablation experiments show that our heterogeneous graph-based model attaches more importance to hemispheric connections that may be neglected due to their low strength by previous homogeneous graph models. Other experiments also indicate that our proposed model with a pretraining strategy alleviates the problem of limited labelled data and yields a significant improvement in accuracy.
