Linear codes with few weights are widely used in strongly regular graphs, secret sharing schemes, association schemes and authentication codes. In this paper, we construct several two-weight and three-weight linear codes over finite fields by choosing suitable different defining sets. We also give some examples and some of the codes are optimal or almost optimal. Their applications to secret sharing schemes are also investigated.

This research provides a design for a complaint constant-force mechanism employing a leaf-spring-like beam with variable stiffness to address the negative stiffness stroke underutilization issue of the bistable beam. By designing the compression of the leaf-spring-like beam at each given displacement and the compression ramp slope, this technique allows the constant force mechanism to potentially take full utilization of the bistable beam's negative stiffness component. Innovative design of a complaint constant force mechanism based on positive and negative stiffness is shown in this study. In addition, we conduct simulation analysis and experimental verification. The experimental results illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

The paper deals with the approximation of first order derivative of a function by the first order derivative of Szász-type operators based on Charlier polynomials introduced by Varma and Taşdelen [20]. The uniform convergence theorem, Voronovskaja type asymptotic theorem and an estimate of error in terms of the second order modulus of continuity of the derivative of the function are investigated. Further, it is shown that linear combinations of the derivative of the above operators converge to the derivative of function at a faster rate. Finally, an estimate of error in the approximation is obtained in terms of the begin{document}$ (2k+2)th $end{document} order modulus of continuity using Steklov mean.

Readability of Chinese texts considered in this paper is a multi-class classification problem with begin{document}$ 12 $end{document} grade classes corresponding to begin{document}$ 6 $end{document} grades in primary schools, begin{document}$ 3 $end{document} grades in middle schools, and begin{document}$ 3 $end{document} grades in high schools. A special property of this problem is the strong ambiguity in determining the grades. To overcome the difficulty, a measurement of readability assessment methods used empirically in practice is adjacent accuracy in addition to exact accuracy. In this paper we give mathematical definitions of these concepts in a learning theory framework and compare these two quantities in terms of the ambiguity level of texts. A deep learning algorithm is proposed for readability of Chinese texts, based on convolutional neural networks and a pre-trained BERT model for vector representations of Chinese characters. The proposed CNN model can extract sentence and text features by convolutions of sentence representations with filters and is efficient for readability assessment, which is demonstrated with some numerical experiments.

The 30-day hospital readmission rate is the percentage of patients who are readmitted within 30 days after the last hospital discharge. Hospitals with high readmission rates would have to pay penalties to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Predicting the readmissions can help the hospital better allocate its resources to reduce the readmission rate. In this research, we use a data set from a hospital in North Carolina during the years from 2011 to 2016, including 71724 hospital admissions. We aim to provide a predictive model that can be helpful for related entities including hospitals, health insurance actuaries, and Medicare to reduce the cost and improve the clinical outcome of the healthcare system. We used R to process data and applied clustering, generalized linear model (GLM) and LASSO regressions to predict the 30-day readmissions. It turns out that the patient's age is the most important factor impacting hospital readmission. This research can help hospitals and CMS reduce costly readmissions.

The motivation behind the current paper is to elucidate the approximation properties of a Kantorovich variant of Lupaş-Stancu operators based on Pólya distribution. We construct quantitative-Voronovskaya and Grüss-Voronovskaya type theorems and determine the convergence estimates of the above operators. We also contrive the statistical convergence and talk about the approximation degree of a bivariate extension of these operators by exhibiting the convergence rate in terms of the complete and partial moduli of continuity. We build GBS (Generalized Boolean Sum) operators allied with the bivariate operators and estimate their convergence rate using mixed modulus of smoothness and Lipschitz class of Bbegin{document}$ ddot{o} $end{document}gel continuous functions. We also evaluate the order of approximation of the GBS operators in the spaces of B-continuous (Bögel continuous) and B-differentiable (Bögel differentiable) functions. In addition, we depict the comparison between the rate of convergence of the proposed bivariate operators and the corresponding GBS operators for some functions by graphical illustrations using MATLAB software.
