Developers write logging statements to generate logs that provide valuable runtime information for debugging and maintenance of software systems. Log level is an important component of a logging statement, which enables developers to control the information to be generated at system runtime. However, due to the complexity of software systems and their runtime behaviors, deciding a proper log level for a logging statement is a challenging task. For example, choosing a higher level (e.g., error) for a trivial event may confuse end users and increase system maintenance overhead, while choosing a lower level (e.g., trace) for a critical event may prevent the important execution information to be conveyed opportunely. In this paper, we tackle the challenge by first conducting a preliminary manual study on the characteristics of log levels. We find that the syntactic context of the logging statement and the message to be logged might be related to the decision of log levels, and log levels that are further apart in order (e.g., trace and error) tend to have more differences in their characteristics. Based on this, we then propose a deep-learning based approach that can leverage the ordinal nature of log levels to make suggestions on choosing log levels, by using the syntactic context and message features of the logging statements extracted from the source code. Through an evaluation on nine large-scale open source projects, we find that: 1) our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art baseline approaches; 2) we can further improve the performance of our approach by enlarging the training data obtained from other systems; 3) our approach also achieves promising results on cross-system suggestions that are even better than the baseline approaches on within-system suggestions. Our study highlights the potentials in suggesting log levels to help developers make informed logging decisions.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common reason of dementia that causes serious problems in patients' congnitive functions. Multi-task learning (MTL) has performed well in studies of longitudinal processes in Alzheimer's disease for revealing the progression of AD. Combined with prior knowl-edges in disease progression or medical science, regularization MTL framework could introduce empirical constraints more flexibly. Meanwhile, it brings higher cost during optimization. While it shown that most of formulations could not define the disease progression precisely. Existing regression methods with temporal smoothness method eliminated abnormal fluctuation of cognitive scores, and neglected the sophisticated progression in disease. In this article, we proposed an analytic method to define the progression of AD, and a flexible bandwidth method to encourage the points of disease time sequence temporal smoothness in an appropriate way. To solve three non-smooth penalties in our method, we proposed an optimization method combined accelerated gradient descent (AGD) and alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM).

It is frequently hypothesized that cortical networks operate close to a critical point. Advantages of criticality include rich dynamics well suited for computation and critical slowing down, which may offer a mechanism for dynamic memory. However, mean-field approximations, while versatile and popular, inherently neglect the fluctuations responsible for such critical dynamics. Thus, a renormalized theory is necessary. We consider the Sompolinsky-Crisanti-Sommers model which displays a well studied chaotic as well as a magnetic transition. Based on the analog of a quantum effective action, we derive self-consistency equations for the first two renormalized Greens functions. Their self-consistent solution reveals a coupling between the population level activity and single neuron heterogeneity. The quantitative theory explains the population autocorrelation function, the single-unit autocorrelation function with its multiple temporal scales, and cross correlations.
Microservice system solutions are now mainstream. The older microservices-based systems are not more than 15 years old, and their architecture is by far different than the one originally designed because of several ch...
