Critical technologies including artificial intelligence, semiconductors and quantum computing are attracting attention because of their indispensable nature and their role in national security strategies. We compare China, the United States and the European Union in these technologies and their...

The rise of Industrial IoT (IIoT) alongside cloud, edge, and fog computing is transforming industrial operations and enabling new Demand Response (DR) opportunities in the Smart Grid. DR allows end-users to adjust energy consumption in response to external signals. Still, its adoption in...

The rapid development of multimedia technology has brought great changes to people's lives and production. Computer viruses also spread widely through the network. In order to solve the above problems, this article intends to use multimedia technology to control computer viruses, and proposes a...

The field of Computer Vision, a pivotal subdomain of Artificial Intelligence (AI), has seen extraordinary advancements since its emergence in the 1960s. This paper examines the historical development of Computer Vision technologies, tracing the journey from early foundational models, such as...

This chapter discusses methods and approaches for pursuing computational anthropology. We discuss how computational methods can be used in anthropological research to provide new approaches to data collection, such as from social media, as well as for new methods of analysis. Using two examples...

With rising wages and increasing maturity of computer technology, computer use in the workplace is becoming increasingly common. Based on data from an urban labor survey, 58 percent of urban workers used computers at work in 2016. Using computer price and density as instrumental variables, we...

The recent arrival of an innovation supercluster of digital business technologies (web3/ industry 4.0, etc) is driving a deep, global institutional transformation from industrial to digital economies. A digital economy is a new type of economy that is qualitatively different because it is far...

Real-world applications of quantum computers and machine intelligence explores practical examples in quantum computing and machine learning for various industry revolutions. By contrasting quantum computing with conventional data mining systems, this book offers insights into the transformative...

The emergence of different computing methods such as cloud-, fog-, and edge-based Internet of Things (IoT) systems has provided the opportunity to develop intelligent systems for disease detection. Compared to other machine learning models, deep learning models have gained more attention from...

Steve Jobs described computers as "bicycles for the mind," a tool that allowed people to dramatically leverage their capabilities. This paper presents a formal model of cognitive tools and technologies that enhance mental capabilities. We consider agents engaged in iterative task improvement,...

Computer vision and edge computing technologies for the drone industry explores the enhancement of the autonomous capability of drones for operations in dense forests, mountainous regions, or urban settings. It highlights the abilities of computer vision algorithms to enable drones to navigate...

A quantum computer exhibits a quantum advantage when it can perform a calculation that a classical computer is unable to complete. It follows that a company with a quantum computer would be a monopolist in the market for solving such a calculation if its only competitor was a company with a...

The Nd doped LaB6 and La doped NdB6 was successfully synthesized from La2O3–B2O3–Mg blends by mechanochemical method. The Nd doped affects on crystal structure and electronic features were studied employing DFT. The high-energy ball milling carried out the synthesis reaction. The process...

This paper develops and estimates cost-of-living indexes (e.g., Fisher and Griliches [1995]) for measuring buyer benefits from technical change in the commercial mainframe computer industry in the 1980s. For this purpose we use a micro-econometric model of demand for product characteristics...

At present, many video editing software have been created, but what they all have in common is that they require manual work to edit. And it takes a lot of time and the user needs to watch each frame before editing. In this paper, we have developed a program about AI intelligence. The most...

We run experiments of first-price auctions with two groups, by which we directly detect the presence of bidders' loss aversion. Each human bidder bids against three pre-programmed computer bidders -- computers independently draw their values from the uniform distribution and bid their values in...

Newspapers and websites are reporting with strong emphasys the successes of quantum computing, obtained by the new quantum machines. It is therefore natural to ask ourselves some questions about these machines, in particular how do they operate, where are they physically and what is needed for...

In today's world where all tasks can be done with the speed of a single click, autonomous vehicles have come into picture which not only ensures safe self- driving but also an effortless driving experience. The demand of such vehicle tends to grow much more in the near future due to which...

We propose a text-based method for measuring and analyzing the international propagation of uncertainty shocks at the firm level. We apply this method to estimate the impact of Brexit-related uncertainty and find widespread reverberations on listed firms in 81 countries. International firms most...

The rising capital income share and declining productivity growth have been welldocumented facts of recent years. This paper argues that one of the forces behind these trends is the evidence-based high obsolescence rates of computer technologies, namely hardware and software, widely used in many...
