Graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained increasing popularity, while usually suffering from unaffordable computations for real-world large-scale applications. Hence, pruning GNNs is of great need but largely unexplored. The recent work Unified GNN Sparsification (UGS) studies lottery ticket learning for GNNs, aiming to find a subset of model parameters and graph structures that can best maintain the GNN performance. However, it is tailed for the transductive setting, failing to generalize to unseen graphs, which are common in inductive tasks like graph classification. In this work, we propose a simple and effective learning paradigm, Inductive Co-Pruning of GNNs (ICPG), to endow graph lottery tickets with inductive pruning capacity. To prune the input graphs, we design a predictive model to generate importance scores for each edge based on the input. To prune the model parameters, it views the weight’s magnitude as their importance scores. Then we design an iterative co-pruning strategy to trim the graph edges and GNN weights based on their importance scores. Although it might be strikingly simple, ICPG surpasses the existing pruning method and can be universally applicable in both inductive and transductive learning settings. On 10 graph-classification and two node-classification benchmarks, ICPG achieves the same performance level with 14.26%–43.12% sparsity for graphs and 48.80%–91.41% sparsity for the GNN model.

Background: Virtualization adequately maintains increasing requirements for storage, networking, servers, and computing in exhaustive cloud data centers (CDC)s. Virtualization assists in gaining different objectives like dedicated server sustenance, fault tolerance, comprehensive service availability, and load balancing, by virtual machine (VM) migration. The VM migration process continuously requires CPU cycles, communication bandwidth, memory, and processing power. Therefore, it detrimentally prevails over the performance of dynamic applications and cannot be completely neglected in the synchronous large-scale CDC, explicitly when service level agreement (SLA) and analytical trade goals are to be defined. Introduction: Live VM migration is intermittently adopted as it grants the operational service even when the migration is executed. Currently, power competence has been identified as the primary design requirement for the current CDC model. It grows from a single server to numerous data centres and clouds, which consume an extensive amount of electricity. Consequently, appropriate energy management techniques are especially important for CDCs. Methods: This review paper delineates the need for energy efficiency in the CDC, the systematic mapping of VM migration methods, and research pertinent to it. After that, an analysis of VM migration techniques, the category of VM migration, duplication, and context-based VM migration is presented along with its relative analysis. Results: The various VM migration techniques were compared on the basis of various performance measures. The techniques based on duplication and context-based VM migration methods provide an average reduction in migration time of up to 38.47%, data transfer rate of up to 51.4%, migration downtime of up to 36.33%, network traffic rate of up to 44% and reduced application efficiency overhead up to 14.27%. Conclusion: The study aids in analyzing threats and research challenges related to VM migration

Identification of ocean eddies from a large amount of ocean data provided by satellite measurements and numerical simulations is crucial,while the academia has invented many traditional physical methods with accurate detection capability,but their detection computational efficiency is *** recent years,with the increasing application of deep learning in ocean feature detection,many deep learning-based eddy detection models have been developed for more effective eddy detection from ocean *** it is difficult for them to precisely fit some physical features implicit in traditional methods,leading to inaccurate identification of ocean *** this study,to address the low efficiency of traditional physical methods and the low detection accuracy of deep learning models,we propose a solution that combines the target detection model Faster Region with CNN feature(Faster R-CNN)with the traditional dynamic algorithm Angular Momentum Eddy Detection and Tracking Algorithm(AMEDA).We use Faster R-CNN to detect and generate bounding boxes for eddies,allowing AMEDA to detect the eddy center within these bounding boxes,thus reducing the complexity of center *** demonstrate the detection efficiency and accuracy of this model,this paper compares the experimental results with AMEDA and the deep learning-based eddy detection method *** results show that the eddy detection results of this paper are more accurate than eddyNet and have higher execution efficiency than AMEDA.

Isothiourea is an important class of sulfur-containing molecules showing unique catalytic and biological activities. As such,polyisothiourea is envisioned to be an interesting type of polymer that potentially exhibits a number of interesting properties. However, there is no access to synthesizing well-defined polyisothiourea, and currently isothiourea-containing polymers are mainly prepared by immobilizing onto other polymer's side chain. Herein, we report the first facile synthesis of polyisothioureas via alternating copolymerization of aziridines and isothiocayanates. Mediated by the catalytic system of phosphazene superbases/alcohol, a broad scope of aziridines and isothiocayanates could be transformed into polyisothioureas with adjustable substitutions(11 examples). The structures of obtained polyisothioureas were fully characterized with ^(1)H-NMR, ^(13)C-NMR, and ^(1)H-^(13)C HMBC NMR. Moreover, the polyisothioureas show tunable thermal properties depending on substitutions on the isothiourea linkages. The novel structure of these polyisothioureas will enable a powerful platform for the discovery of nextgeneration functional plastics.
