The proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a critical metric for assessing a country's technological advancement, but also for regional economic coordination and high-quality development in China. Based on panel data collected from 31 provinces between 2006 and 2021, this study employs the DEA-Malmquist index model and panel Tobit model to examine the scale, distributional attributes, and influencing factors of AI resource allocation. Results indicate that China's AI resource allocation efficiency has generally increased, with technical efficiency generating a “pull effect” that propels total factor productivity growth rates higher than those attributable to technological progress. Furthermore, AI efficiency in non-coastal regions outstrips that in coastal areas, with total factor productivity growth arising from a substantial increase in technological progress rates. Regional economic development, labor demand, openness to foreign participation, and human capital level exert pivotal roles in enhancing AI resource allocation efficiency. Based on these findings, we suggest a set of strategies aimed at enhancing China's AI resource allocation efficiency, including amplifying government guidance, increasing R&D investments, upgrading economic development levels, fostering the development and strengthening of tangible economy, and attracting and nurturing high-quality scientific research talent.

The present study evaluates the photochemical behavior of a nitroimidazole derivative drug metronidazole in presence of N,N dimethylaniline and ZnO nanoparticles. The photochemical behavior was examined in a photochemical reactor by irradiating with a light of 254 and 310 nm. After completion of reaction one photoproduct was obtained. The photoproduct was isolated by using column chromatography and the structure of the isolated photoproduct was established by different spectroscopic techniques. This study provides the probable mechanism of the photochemical transformation of metronidazole in presence of an electron donor and in presence of ZnO NPs. During the photochemical transformation the nitro group of metronidazole was reduced in the amine group by a series of electron transfer processes. The ZnO nanoparticles are very efficient catalysts, and they degrade almost 90% metronidazole in the 60 min of UV irradiation. The photocatalytic mechanism of the ZnO nanoparticles is also discussed.

Most of the d-metals are familiar with their distinctive properties and their applications have been extended in vast industry fields. Though they are doing outstanding work in industries and help to boost the economy of dependence. The excess uptake of d-metals explores significant health issues, and detrimental effects on the environment, and corrodes the biological species. Fluorescent probes based on Schiff base chemical compounds give more accuracy, and low-level detection for metal ions in water, chemicals, and in biological cells through commendable and quick fluorescence signals. So, it empowers the successful detection of d-metals in terms of dissimilar fluorescence responses by probes in light of metals. Based on the recent research in the field of Schiff base-based fluorescent probes and interpretation on effects for binding like ON-OFF PET, ICT, CHEF, and CHEQ this imperative review is framed.

As a capital market investment, stocks have risks that must be managed. Therefore, investors should consider the returns and risks of investment products. This study aims to estimate the risk of insurance companies' loss when investing. The method used to estimate the level of risk is Value at Risk (VaR) based on Extreme Value Theory (EVT). The data used is secondary data in the form of daily stock closing prices from two insurance companies, AXA General Insurance and BRI Insurance, from January 2016 to January 2022. The data were used to estimate the risk value according to the EVT principle. As a result, Insurance AXA General Insurance, with 5.91% liquidity, has the lowest VaR value with a 99% confidence level, while BRI Insurance has 5.04%. We concluded from these results that AXA General Insurance has a lower investment risk. It means that each company has a different risk value. Therefore, investors should know these risk factors when choosing a company.

Emerging maritime cyber threats put Indonesia's marine technology-based systems at risk This study aims to determine the dimensions and analysis of risk assessment in maritime cyber security based on 3D models in the Indonesian sea area. A statistical descriptive qualitative method approach supported by the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods were used in this study. Risk analysis in maritime cybersecurity has 3 (three) main criteria: Threat, Vulnerability, and consequence. Based on the results of 3D risk analysis, the six dimensions of MCS are identified as having a level of risk at Very Low and Low Risk. The highest risk value is obtained by the dimension of Cyber security-related company procedures (D2) (0.368) and the lowest risk value is Ship's systems readiness (D3) (0.048).

Condensed bicyclic systems with thiadiazole core being annelated to other five-membered heterocycles such as 1,3-thiazole, imidazole or 1,2,4-triazole occupy prominent place in medicinal chemistry because of their broad spectrum of pharmacological activities. The combination of several heterocycles into a bicyclic system commonly provides much more interest in the enhanced activity profile of its analogs than their parent separate constituents. In this review, we summarized the literature data about the main approaches for obtaining and possible directions of structural modification of the most common 1,3,4-thiadiazole containing [5+5] annelated heterosystems as promising objects for modern medicinal chemistry.

The adsorption properties of hydroxyapatite of low crystallinity towards methionine have been examined. The chemical composition of hydroxyapatite was taken as an experimental variable in order to have a point of view on the parameters of the adsorption process and the mechanisms established between adsorbent-adsorbate. The adsorption kinetics are relatively fast, and the high amounts adsorbed at saturation are obtained for non-stoichiometric hydroxyapatite, containing more HPO4^2- ions and having a high specific surface area. The good agreement of the experimental data with kinetic models confirms that the mechanism can be perfectly described by pseudo-second-order kinetics. Adsorption isotherm models show that Langmuir's model gives a better fit of experimental data compared to that of Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Kaganer-Radushkevich. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the interaction between the -COO^- ions of methionine and the Ca²⁺ ions of hydroxyapatite. The thermodynamic parameters, the isoelectric point of methionine and the point of zero charge of hydroxyapatite with different Ca/P ratios show that the adsorption process is considered spontaneous, exothermic and often controlled by physisorption with interactions electrostatic.
