Abstract: An improved genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize the deep neural network algorithm for visual style conversion in visual media. It consists of two parts: optimizing the deep neural network algorithm design and designing a video style conversion model. The genetic algorithm selection strategy is enhanced to optimize the neural network structure. A non-recursive neural network is used to handle temporal inconsistency in a single frame. Experimental results on the Heart dataset show that the accuracy of the optimized deep neural network algorithm is 0.8913, outperforming other algorithms like the generative adversarial dual neural network (0.8696), ant colony optimization (0.8651), …active network (0.8536), genetic algorithm (0.8566), and particle swarm algorithm (0.8558). Moreover, the optimized algorithm achieves high temporal stability and running speed in single and multi-style conversion networks. In conclusion, the proposed strategy using improved genetic algorithms to optimize deep neural network algorithms for visual style conversion offers effective solutions with high application value in terms of accuracy, temporal stability, and running speed.

Abstract: Word2vec is often used in text sentiment analysis to generate word vector, which maps the same word into the same vector. Although Word2vec plays a very good effect in the initial model training task, it still cannot solve the problems of polysemy and new use of old words, which leads to inaccurate extracted features and affects the final classification results. In this paper, BERT model was used to vectorize the review text of tourist attractions, and fusion attention mechanism and long and short-term memory model were used to extract the emotional features of the text for classification at the feature …extraction layer. The emotional accuracy of the model proposed in this paper reached 95.79% in the review text of tourist attractions. Show more

Abstract: College students are learning a foreign language must know how to translate the spoken or written content from the respective language into English. These approaches do not help the college students to develop the capacity for rational thinking and adequate the motivation for the English translation. The educational principles are not in line with the qualities of the students in the typical English translation classroom teaching, and the teaching methods are out-dated. In the older process of the teaching English translation, many unreliable, vague aspects need to be considered, such as recognizing students’ fundamental English knowledge, unique circumstances, language proficiency, …cultural differences, and the ambiguity of the source language. The main issue with the current English translation evaluation methodology is that it cannot be easily to deal with thecomplex fuzzy indices when judging the accuracy of the student translations. An algorithm named FCAM-AHP-ANFIS is proposed to provide an effective and accurate method for evaluating and predicting students’ English translation outcomes to overcome the traditional shortcomings. According to the proposed approach, students can learn about passive translation, but they may struggle to actively improve their translation skills. College students can benefit from the decision-making aid provided by the extensive evaluation technique due to its high availability and precision. The fundamental benefit of the fuzzy technique over more traditional forms of the assessment is that it accounts for the ambiguity and uncertainty of the making judgments at the human level and provides a coherent framework that includes the indistinct findings of the several steps in evaluating an English translation. The Fuzzy Comprehensive Assessment Model (FCAM) is a decision-making method that uses the fuzzy logic to assess the quality of English translations among the college students. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is employed to calculate each criterion’s relative importance and determine the optimal weighting for each criterion utilized in the assessment model. The Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is used to analyze the translated data and generate predictions for the students’ translation outcomes. The experimental outcomes show the accuracy of the English translation assessment scores are 95.6% with 97% precision, 96% recall, and 96.5% of f1-score metric in addition to Root Mean Square (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE).

Abstract: The ultimate bearing capacity test effect directly influences the safety performance of the design of building structures. To enhance the safety of building structures, applying the BP neural network algorithm to their ultimate bearing capacity test is studied to improve the test effect. The shear wave velocity of the building structure during stress is collected using the static probing technique. The input samples of the BP neural network are the building structure’s shear wave velocity and construction parameters. They are processed by dimensionality reduction through principal component analysis. The firework algorithm is used to optimize the weight of the BP …neural network. An early termination training method is designed, and the optimal weight is combined to train the BP neural network. After training, the samples are input after dimensionality reduction, and the building structure’s ultimate bearing capacity test results are output. Experimental results show that this method can effectively collect the shear wave velocity of building structures and complete the dimensionality reduction of samples. Under different coaxial stresses, this method can effectively measure the ultimate bearing capacity, about 3800 kN. After parameter optimization, the test value of this method is very close to the target value; that is, the ultimate bearing capacity test precision is high. Show more

Abstract: A prevention and control tracking system based on three-dimensional (3D) face recognition was designed to improve the target tracking accuracy of the prevention and control tracking system. The ARM control chip of TMS320DM6446 was selected as the control chip of the ARM control module. The CMOS image acquisition sensor of the image acquisition module collected face images. The collected images were transmitted to the 3D face recognition module. The 3D face recognition module used the Gabor wavelet algorithm to extract the 3D face contour features of the face image. Moreover, the LDA algorithm was used to recognize faces based on …3D face contour features. The 3D face recognition results were compared with the faces in the face library to determine whether prevention and control tracking were necessary. When prevention and control tracking was needed, the GPS tracking and positioning module embedded in the mobile device terminal of the target object was started. The GPS tracking and positioning module was used to prevent and control the tracking of the target. The results of prevention and control tracking were displayed to the system users using a VGA display. The experimental results indicated that the designed system could accurately recognize faces and achieve prevention and control tracking of the target based on the face recognition results.

Abstract: The 10,000-hour rate of civil aviation incidents is an important index parameter to measure flight safety. Predicting the development trend of the 10,000-hour rate of civil aviation incidents plays an important role in aviation accident prevention and safety decision-making. Many complex factors influence the occurrence of civil aviation incidents, so the 10,000-hour rate of civil aviation incidents changes randomly and volatilely. This study proposed the idea of prediction by combining the grey GM (1, 1) model and the Markov model. Specifically, the grey GM (1, 1) prediction model was constructed using the statistical data on the 10,000-hour rate of civil …aviation incidents in China during 2005–2020. On this basis, a grey Markov prediction model was established. The prediction of the 10,000-hour rate of incidents in 2021 based on the two models showed that the grey Markov model displayed higher prediction accuracy than the grey GM (1, 1) model and conformed to the change laws of the 10,000-hour rate data of civil aviation incidents better. Moreover, the grey Markov model could effectively improve the accuracy of the grey prediction model, compensate for its deficiencies, and facilitate the mastery of the change laws of civil aviation incidents, providing a reliable basis for aviation safety management and incident prevention.

Abstract: Tourism has had some negative effects while generating positive results. The carbon emissions produced by tourism, which is not a “smokeless industry” in traditional cognition, account for a certain proportion of the global greenhouse gas emissions. Tourism transportation, tourist accommodation, and other tourism activities all contribute to the carbon emission of tourism, and various tourism activities not only stimulate the economy but also increase air pollution. As a big industry, tourism’s growth and development have continuously increased energy consumption, and the pressure on energy conservation and emission reduction has also been greatly aggravated. In this study, the tourism carbon emissions …in each province of China were estimated using a “top-down” calculation model, the tourism energy consumption factors were decomposed using a logarithmic mean Divisia index model, and the driving factors of tourism carbon emissions were analyzed through a panel data model. Results show that the tourism carbon emissions in China rapidly increased from 360.74 million tons in 2006 to 853.28 million tons in 2021. The driving factors of tourism energy consumption in China are economic development, energy efficiency, and population, while the inhibiting factors are tourism intensity and energy structure. The per capita GDP, the proportion of the tertiary industry, the turnover of tourists, and the level of urbanization all significantly promote the growth of tourism carbon emissions in China at 1%. The research results are of great significance to the proposal of measures for tourism carbon emission reduction in combination with the situation of various provinces and cities, promoting regional economic development and boosting the development of tourism in China under the background of a low-carbon economy.

Abstract: The difficulty of scheduling jobs or workloads increases due to the stochastic and transient characteristics of the cloud network. As a key prerequisite for establishing QoS, it asserts that effective work scheduling must be developed and executed. Maximum profit is made possible for cloud service providers by proper resource management. The most effective scheduling algorithm considers resources given by providers rather than the task set that users have accumulated. This paper developed a model that works in a two-level hierarchical model comprising global scheduling and local schedules to handle the heterogeneous type of request in real-time. These two levels of …scheduling communicate with each other to produce an optimal scheduling scheme. Initially, all the requests are passed to the global scheduler, whose task is to categorize the type of request and pass it to the corresponding queue for assigning it to the related local scheduler using a parabolic intuitionistic fuzzy scheduler. In this work, the heterogeneous types of files are handled by maintaining different queues, in which each queue handles only a specific type of file like text doc, audio, image and video. Once the type of req is initiated by the clients, the global scheduler identifies the type of request and passes it to their relevant queue. In the next level, the local scheduler is assigned to each type of web server cluster. Once the work request is dispatched from the global workload scheduler, it is allocated to the local queue of the local scheduler, which allocates the resources of web servers by adapting the Quantum Honey Badger Algorithm, which searches the best-suited server for completing the assigned work based on the available resource parameters.

Then, the core of each subsystem and the comprehensive score were calculated based on the TOPSIS method, the high-quality development level of urban innovation and entrepreneurship in 19 vice-ministerial cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Chengdu in China was measured, and the innovation and entrepreneurship development …level and structural characteristics were analyzed from five aspects. The results show that Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing, Nanjing, and Guangzhou take the lead in the high-quality development of innovation and entrepreneurship, while Xi’an, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Wuhan, Qingdao, Jinan, and Ningbo are in the medium level. Chongqing, Shenyang, Dalian, Harbin, Xiamen, and Changchun perform poorly in the development of innovation and entrepreneurship with problems of interregional large gradient difference in capacity and unbalanced development, which provides an important reference for understanding the current situation, advantages, and disadvantages of innovation and entrepreneurship education development in various economic zones.

Abstract: Global warming is one of the key issues attracting international concern. The carbon dioxide emission produced by energy combustion is the main cause of the greenhouse effect, and reducing carbon emissions is considered the most effective way to deal with the greenhouse effect. The extensive production mode characterized by high energy consumption, high emission, and low efficiency in China’s construction industry intensifies the contradiction between economic development and resources and the environment, and the growth under this mode is at the expense of consuming a lot of resources and energy. The improvement of carbon emission efficiency is an effective means …of achieving the goal of economic growth and carbon emission reduction simultaneously, making it necessary to accurately measure the carbon emission efficiency of the construction industry in each province, determine the influencing factors, and formulate reasonable emission reduction policies for this industry. In this study, an input-output index system of carbon emission efficiency of China’s construction industry was constructed, the carbon emission efficiency of the construction industry in each province was evaluated using the super-efficiency SBM model, and the factors affecting the carbon emission efficiency of this industry were analyzed via the Tobit model. The results showed that the average value of carbon emission efficiency of the construction industry generally showed a rising trend in a fluctuating way during the study period. From 2014 to 2022, the average carbon emission efficiency of the national construction industry presented an upward trend, from 1.122 in 2014 to 1.148 in 2022; the regional economic level (p = 0.020 < 0.05) and human capital level (p = 0.000 < 0.01) exerted obvious promoting effects on the carbon emission efficiency of China’s construction industry, while the urbanization development (p = 0.049 < 0.05) generated evident negative effects on carbon emission efficiency of this industry. The research results have important reference values for making cross-provincial emission reduction plans for the construction industry, promoting its carbon emission efficiency, and driving the research and development of green building materials and clean energy.

Abstract: Nowadays, the demand for risk response is increasing in countries worldwide, leading to the development of emergency-related industries as strategic emerging sectors. However, the emergency logistics industry is facing increasingly critical distribution issues. This study applies K-means clustering analysis to convert multiple distribution centers into multiple single distribution center problems. It then compares and analyzes the vehicle routing model with time windows for emergency logistics delivery in multiple distribution centers using guided local search (GLS), taboo search (TS), and simulated annealing (SA) algorithm. The results demonstrate that the GLS algorithm outperformed both the SA and TS algorithm in optimizing emergency …logistics delivery paths for multiple distribution centers. The GLS algorithm proved to be more effective in solving this problem.

Abstract: This study aimed to apply a microprocessor on a wireless automated vehicle to achieve real-time tracking of moving objects. The targets captured by the camera on the vehicle were first separated from their background through background subtraction. Next, morphological processing was performed to remove unnecessary information. An enhanced seeded region growing method was used to achieve image segmentation by labeling and segmenting the targets effectively, thus enhancing the accuracy and resolving the problem of object concealment. The corresponding red, green, and blue colors of each target were calculated through a color space, which was then converted into an enhanced luminance/chroma …blue/chroma red (YUV) color space for color histogram modeling and storage, so as to increase the system’s tracking speed. The enhanced YUV colors also achieved accurate tracking in dark places. After inputting the next image, an enhanced agglomerative hierarchical clustering method was used to agglomerate and connect pixels with the same YUV for tracking. A proportional-integral-derivative controller controlled the motors on the camera lens and the vehicle so that the target could be tracked properly in real-time. The experimental results revealed that our proposed tracking method performed better than conventional tracking methods. Show more

Abstract: The high-quality development of the logistics industry, which is an essential and strategic industry supporting the national economic operation and a fundamental component of modern industrial system construction, is not only a key component of the high-quality development of the national economy but also the main driving force for the high-quality growth of the national economy. As the supporting industry of the national economy, the logistics industry will also face spatial disequilibrium during development. Therefore, to achieve the coordinated development of the logistics industry, the high-quality development and the spatial-temporal unbalanced development status of the logistics industry in each province …must be figured out first. This research established a comprehensive evaluation system for the logistics industry development, which included 14 basic indexes based on the provincial-level panel data of 30 provinces in China during 2009–2020. Then, the regional logistics development level score in China was measured using the entropy weight TOPSIS method, and the differences in the regional logistics development level in China and the dynamic evolution law of their distribution were deeply explored through the Dagum Gini coefficient model. The research results revealed that the evaluation index system (14 basic indexes) for the regional logistics industry development level in China was relatively scientific and reasonable; the regional logistics industry development level in China was increasing year by year, showing a steady upward trend, and the imbalance in the eastern, central, and western regions regarding the regional logistics development was shrinking year by year; the average intergroup contribution rate was 36.33%, the intragroup contribution rate was 31.49%, and the contribution rate of intensity of trans variation was 32.19%, proving that the regional differences exerted a most extraordinary influence on the spatial differences in the regional logistics industry development level in China. The research results have important reference value for summarizing the meaning of high-quality logistics industry development, constructing the evaluation index system for logistics industry development, and exploring the reasons for the temporal and spatial differences in logistics industry development in China.

Abstract: Excessive emission of greenhouse gases leads to the increasing greenhouse effect, adversely affecting the global climate. Carbon dioxide is the dominant part of greenhouse gases; reducing its emission is the most important way to solve the climate problem. Aiming at the characteristics of the dangerous goods transportation market and the development of the carbon tax policy, the carbon tax cost and the cost of dangerous goods transportation are introduced, and the characteristics of the dangerous goods transportation and the road traffic network and the road traffic in each period are fully analyzed. The optimization model of the path of the …hazardous goods vehicles is established with the optimization objective of the lowest total cost. Then, by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of bacterial foraging algorithm (BFA) and ant colony algorithm (ACO), the hybrid BFA-ACO algorithm is established by combining the two, and the replication and convergence operations of bacterial foraging algorithm are introduced into the ACO algorithm to improve the convergence speed and global convergence ability of the algorithm. The hybrid algorithm is then used to optimize and solve the path optimization model of hazardous materials vehicles and compared with the classical algorithms Genetic Algorithm (GA) and ACO for solving the path of dangerous materials vehicles. A comparison of the optimization results reveals that optimizing the model by bacterial foraging-ACO algorithm is better than optimizing the model by a single algorithm. Show more

Abstract: Data collection using local differential privacy (LDP) has mainly been studied for homogeneous data. Several data categories, including key-value pairs, must be estimated simultaneously in real-world applications, including the frequency of keys and the mean values within each key. It is challenging to achieve an acceptable utility-privacy tradeoff using LDP for key-value data collection since the data has two aspects, and a client could have multiple key-value pairs. Current LDP approaches are not scalable enough to handle large and small datasets. When the dataset is small, there is insufficient data to calculate statistical parameters; when the dataset is enormous, such …as in streaming data, there is a risk of data leakage due to the high availability of too much information. The result is unsuitable for examination due to the substantial amount of randomization used in some methods. Existing LDP approaches are mostly restricted to basic data categories like category and numerical values. To address these difficulties, this research developed the DKVALP (Differentially private key-value pairs) algorithm, which ensures differential privacy in key-value pair data. This DKVALP is a lightweight, differentially private data algorithm that generates random noise using an updated Laplace algorithm to ensure differential privacy for the data. According to execution outputs on synthetic and real-world datasets, the proposed DKVALP framework offers improved usefulness for both frequency and mean predictions over the similar LDP security as conventional approaches.

Abstract: As a booster of the national economy and a catalyst of industrial development, the logistics industry uniquely maintains stable economic operations and promotes industrial structural adjustment. The development of China’s logistics industry has broadened the international market and accelerated the exchange and cooperation of logistics industries between different countries. The “Belt & Road Initiative” will continue to provide impetus for the development of China’s logistics industry, which can guarantee the infrastructure interconnection of the logistics industry and ensure the fundamental implementation of the initiative. Based on theoretical analysis and the panel data of 30 provinces in China during 2005–2020, whether …the “Belt & Road Initiative” had obvious policy effects on regional logistics development in China was analyzed. The empirical research results showed that the “Belt & Road Initiative” could accelerate the high-quality development of the logistics industry in the provinces along the route during the research period. Industrial proportion, per capita GDP, import and export amount of goods, investment in fixed assets of the whole society, and science and technology input positively affected the development of regional logistics industries. The regression coefficient of the energy structure in the logistics industry was negative but not significant. The research results have important decision-making reference values in promoting the regional advantages of modern logistics industries, promoting the convenience of logistics trade, improving the scientific and technological level of the logistics industry, and using other exogenous policy variables to boost the high-quality development of modern logistics industries under the background of the “Belt & Road Initiative”.

Abstract: Water resources carrying capacity refers to the ability of the water resources ecosystem to continuously carry the coordination relationship between human society and economy in the normal development process of a country or a region. Its self-sustaining ability, self-regulation and self-development potential often hinder sustainable development in water shortage areas. Research on water resources’ carrying capacity is a meaningful way to support regional water resources security and realize harmonious development of society, economy, and ecological environment. Correct assessment of water carrying capacity and response to government policies will contribute to improved water use and sustainable economic and social development. This …study first sorts out the relevant questionnaires of water resources carrying capacity level evaluation, proposes the evaluation indicators of water resources carrying capacity level, collects and standardizes the required data, and calculates the weight of each evaluation index by entropy weight method. Then, it calculates the comprehensive evaluation value of China’s water resources carrying capacity from 2012 to 2022 in the TOPSIS model. The results show that the total afforestation area, total investment in environmental pollution control, and total industrial wastewater discharge are the third most important factors in improving the carrying capacity of water resources. From 2003 to 2010, China’s water resources carrying capacity improved year by year. From 2011 to 2021, China’s water resources carrying capacity remained stable year by year. The continuous adjustment of China’s industrial structure and strengthening environmental pollution control are inevitable measures to improve the carrying capacity of China’s water resources. This study provides a scientific basis for exploring the changing trend of China’s water resources carrying capacity and formulating reasonable optimal allocation of water resources. It also has great significance for promoting China’s water resources’ carrying capacity and sustainable development of the social economy and ecological environment. Show more

Abstract: Emergency material security is the key to post-disaster emergency relief in complex environment engineering construction projects. Aiming at the emergency logistics center site path planning problem, the uncertain parameters of congestion time and maximum rescue time are described using trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, and the emergency logistics site path model of the two-phase engineering construction project is established. A quantum particle swarm optimization model is designed to avoid premature population convergence and maintain population diversity. The particle swarm algorithm uses the quantum spin gate’s rotation angle update to represent the particle velocity update. Taking the engineering construction project in the western …mountainous area as an example, the validity and applicability of the model are verified through model comparison and sensitivity analysis. The results of the example show that in the complex environment, the quantum particle swarm algorithm takes 29.35 s in convergence time, and the particle swarm algorithm takes 40.12 s, which is 36.69% higher than the efficiency of PSO. In total cost, the quantum particle swarm algorithm has a total cost of 46,632.40 RMB, and the particle swarm algorithm has a total cost of 48,319.51 RMB, which is 3.62% lower than the cost of PSO. The quantum particle swarm algorithm’s total distance is 550.57 km, and the particle swarm algorithm’s total distance is 579.35 km, 5.23% lower than the total distance of PSO. The model established in this study can scientifically select the location of emergency facilities and formulate the emergency rescue path, reduce the response time of emergency rescue and storage costs, and provide decision support for the scheduling of emergency supplies for engineering construction projects in complex and dangerous areas.

Abstract: This paper proposes a detection method for countering strategic attacks in zero-boundary trusted networks. In a normal network, malicious nodes are only a minority; therefore, this paper employs a simple game-theoretic approach to suppress the occurrence of malicious events. Firstly, the paper introduces a behavior-based event inference method to detect malicious events, wherein nodes reference the inference results of other nodes to form composite reports. Subsequently, the paper introduces a simple game, allowing malicious nodes to choose not to falsify reports under disadvantaged scenarios, reaching a Bayesian equilibrium with normal nodes, thereby reducing the incidence of malicious events. This method …demonstrates significant effectiveness in conventional networks where malicious nodes constitute a minority. Show more

Abstract: Since its inception, the stock market has been a topic of considerable interest. Its variation and the complexity of integrating technology into the stock market have made it difficult for stock market trends to be fully understood. Various metrics and analytical approaches have been proposed in response to such changes, ranging from purely technical metrics to hardware upgrades. The widespread application of deep learning in the stock market, from basic metrics (opening price, closing price, highest price, lowest price, trading volume) to machine learning in sentiment analysis, further increases the possibility of increasing profits. Some front-end techniques, such as noise …reduction through mathematical models, enhance the accuracy of deep learning models. However, few studies have centered on predicting long-term stock price changes. The traditional moving average (MA) cannot rapidly reflect drastic changes on its curve even though it can display trends; therefore, this study proposes an MA-based approach that improves the 200-day MA such that its delayed response to actual prices in real-time can be overcome. This deep learning model training was performed by combining 200-day MA data with two other types of MA data, thereby creating a new approach to metric analysis. The sample consisted of stocks of 13 Taiwanese companies with a high market cap: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., MediaTek Inc., Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd., Fubon Financial Holding Co., Ltd., Cathay Financial Holding Co., Ltd., Nan Ya Plastics Corp., United Microelectronics Corp., Delta Electronics, Inc., CTBC Financial Holding Co., Ltd., Mega Financial Holding Co., Ltd., Formosa Chemicals & Fibre Corp., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd., and Formosa Plastics Corp. Through multiple evaluation metrics, the experimental results revealed that the proposed model performed better in general than the traditional MA model for all stocks. Show more

Abstract: Marked by artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, revolutionary biotechnology, etc., the fourth scientific and technological revolution and industrial revolution are accelerated. In this new situation, China’s higher engineering education is increasingly closely related to the Industrial Revolution, and it is urgent to train new engineering talents with innovation and entrepreneurship abilities, cross-border integration abilities and comprehensive quality to meet the needs of economic and social development. Entrepreneurial engineering talents have become an important force in promoting industrial progress and social development. Training entrepreneurial engineering talents takes engineering practice training as the driving force of teaching reform. To conduct more …scientific and effective evaluation research on college students’ engineering entrepreneurship ability, this study proposes the TOPSIS method based on combining CRITIC and entropy weight methods. It constructs a comprehensive evaluation index system of college students’ engineering entrepreneurship ability composed of 21 indexes from four dimensions, including self-motivation ability, team management ability, technical management ability and market management ability. A questionnaire based survey was conducted among 360 college students in 6 Zhejiang Province, China universities. The results show that the improved TOPSIS model proposed in this study can make weight determination more scientific and reasonable. The improved TOPSIS model can effectively distinguish the level of engineering entrepreneurship ability of different college students. The engineering entrepreneurship ability of the students in the six universities is generally at the middle level. The years of engineering education significantly affect technical management ability (F = 4.455, p = 0.004) and market management ability (F = 19.174, p = 0.000) at a 1% level. The research conclusion has important reference value for developing engineering entrepreneurship’s curriculum and practical activity systems based on the ability structure, constructing the entrepreneurship teacher system, and strengthening the cross-departmental cooperation, coordination and integration of engineering entrepreneurship education in schools.

Carbon emissions and inhalable pollutant concentrations are included in the evaluation scope, and an evaluation index system for the logistics competitiveness of 17 coastal port cities is constructed. The results show that: (1) the competitiveness of the logistics industry in 17 coastal port cities in China has been continuously improved, and the catch-up effect of logistics industry development in coastal port cities such as Shenzhen, Ningbo and Qingdao is obvious. The competitiveness level of the …logistics industry shows an obvious spatial imbalance. (2) The competitiveness of the logistics industry in Yingkou, Beibu Gulf and other coastal port cities is low, and the difference in competitiveness of the logistics industry in coastal port cities is the main reason for the overall imbalance. (3) The technological innovation, openness and economic development level of the city and the hinterland have a positive impact on the competitiveness of the logistics industry, and the level of economic development has the greatest contribution to the variance of the competitiveness of the logistics industry. The logistics competitiveness of 17 cities is ranked and classified. The leading cities have core diffusion effects and promote the development of the competitiveness of each city. Suggestions on improving the competitiveness of cities are conducive to the high-quality development of China’s logistics industry. Show more
