隐喻话语的认知解读

隐喻不仅是一种修辞现象,而且是人类对客观世界的一种认知方式,存在于人类思维中。人类的话语中充满了隐喻。从认知角度对隐喻话语进行解读,隐喻话语建构的特点体现为：主体认知性、修辞性和社会性。隐喻话语解读的特点体现为：动态开放性、审美互动性和意象塑造性。     

清代甘肃进士人数考

对进士籍贯进行分省、分地区统计,借以考察传统社会中人才的地理分布,从而引入进士群体的社会史研究,是近年来学界的一大热点。确定清代甘肃进士人数是研究清代甘肃进士群体的基础,然目前对清代甘肃进士人数的统计数据并不一致。经考证后,该文认为清代甘肃进士为343人。     

The relative performance of ensemble methods with deep convolutional neural networks for image classification

Artificial neural networks have been successfully applied to a variety of machine learning tasks, including image recognition, semantic segmentation, and machine translation. However, few studies fully investigated ensembles of artificial neural networks. In this work, we investigated multiple widely used ensemble methods, including unweighted averaging, majority voting, the Bayes Optimal Classifier, and the (discrete) Super Learner, for image recognition tasks, with deep neural networks as candidate algorithms. We designed several experiments, with the candidate algorithms being the same network structure with different model checkpoints within a single training process, networks with same structure but trained multiple times stochastically, and networks with different structure. In addition, we further studied the overconfidence phenomenon of the neural networks, as well as its impact on the ensemble methods. Across all of our experiments, the Super Learner achieved best performance among all the ensemble methods in this study.     

未成年人刑事案件附条件不起诉制度的理论和实践

附条件不起诉作为我国近年来积极推行的司法改革制度,体现了宽严相济刑事政策、起诉便宜主义、和谐社会理念,具有良好的法律效果和社会效果。修订后的刑事诉讼法对该制度进行明文规定,完善了我国的不起诉制度体系,也必将导致附条件不起诉的全面实施。     

“日常生活批判”及其“再批判”

20世纪90年代兴起的“日常生活批判理论”有助于清除现代化的文化阻滞力并推动人的现代化进程。然而,其“日常生活批判理论”却是以现代化合理性和合法性为前提依据的。现代主义并没有实现对传统文化的积极扬弃,以至于产生了“现代性焦虑”和意义生活的丧失。现代日常生活世界的生存论转向有利于从微观领域颠覆现代主义的文化霸权。因此,应在现代日常生活世界中对“日常性”和“非日常性”进行双重批判,以建构一种能够不断自反的现代性。     

能力建设视角下社会工作专业培养方案的探索性实践——以集美大学社工专业为例

加强社工学生专业能力培养的教学探索与方案设计成为高校社会工作教育普遍关注的焦点。在能力建设的视角下,社会工作专业不仅要培养学生基础性的社会工作实务能力,更要以专业化的"核心能力"为中心,培养学生的差异竞争力。必须坚持高校社工专业能力建设的"差异化"原则,努力建构"本地化"的社工专业能力培养模式。     

On the characterization of liberalism by Samet and Schmeidler

In the model of group identification, Samet and Schmeidler (J Econ Theory 110:213–233, 2003) provide two axiomatic characterizations of the“liberal” decision rule (a person is socially qualified as a member of a collective if and only if he qualifies himself). They impose standard monotonicity, non-degeneracy, and independence axioms, together with either exclusive self-determination (opinions by disqualified persons about qualified persons should not matter) or affirmative self-determination (social decision on who are qualified should coincide with social decision on who should be the qualifiers). Dropping monotonicity (and also non-degeneracy in a result) and considering a more general domain to allow neutral opinions, we characterize a larger family of “self-dependent” rules that share the important feature of liberalism that qualification of i depends only on i’s own opinion about himself or herself. Samet and Schmeidler’s results can be obtained with a weaker set of axioms and with a more general domain condition.     

Is Cooperation with Competitors a Good Idea? An Example in Practice

Coopetition has become a heated issue in the last decade. In this study, a scrutinized review of previous research on coopetition is presented to clarify the research stream on coopetition, from which the implications are derived and a framework to analyse the phenomenon is proposed. Given the complex nature of coopetition, an in‐depth case study was undertaken to investigate the competition–cooperation relationship and coopetition performance over a 15‐year period in a Taiwanese supermarket network, which was formed by a focal company and its competitors. Performance was analysed before and after launching the coopetition strategy, in which 31 indicators were examined. The findings imply that competition (Yang) and cooperation (Yin) are reciprocally rooted in and mutually promoted by each other. The findings also confirmed that cooperation with competitors did lead to better performance, at least over a period, in two ways. The first was that the adoption of coopetition permitted the attainment of performance levels beyond what would otherwise have been possible; the second was that the adoption of coopetition changed the timeframe, permitting earlier achievement of higher performance levels. This study contributes to and extends knowledge of the dynamics and consequences of cooperation with competitors and demonstrates that coopetition has a significant temporary advantage.     

Should an OEM Retain Component Procurement when the CM Produces Competing Products?

We consider a large original equipment manufacturer (OEM) who relies on a contract manufacturer (CM) to produce her product. In addition to the OEM's product, the CM also produces for a smaller OEM. Both the larger OEM and the CM can purchase the component from the supplier, but their purchase prices may differ and remain unknown to each other. The main question we address is whether the larger OEM should retain component procurement by purchasing components from the supplier and reselling to the CM (buy–sell), or outsource component procurement by letting the CM purchase directly from the supplier (turnkey). We show that, under buy–sell, the larger OEM's optimal strategy is to resell components at the highest possible component purchase price of the CM (i.e., the street price). By comparing buy–sell and turnkey, we find that a CM with low component price is better off under turnkey, even though under buy–sell he receives more profits through the products sold to the smaller OEM. Furthermore, the larger OEM's preference between buy–sell and turnkey depends on her component price, the volatility of the CM's component price and substitutability between the two products.     

Impact of Reseller's Forecasting Accuracy on Channel Member Performance

This article studies a three‐layer supply chain where a manufacturer sells a product through a reseller who then relies on its own salesperson to sell to the end market. The reseller has superior capability in demand forecasting relative to the manufacturer. We explore the main trade‐offs between the risk‐reduction effect and the information–asymmetry–aggravation effect of the improved forecasting accuracy. We show that under the optimal wholesale price contract, both the manufacturer and the reseller are always better off as the reseller's forecasting accuracy improves. Nevertheless, under the menu of two‐part tariffs, the manufacturer prefers the reseller to be either uninformed or perfectly informed about the market condition. We further find that the improved forecasting accuracy is beneficial for the reseller if its current forecasting system is either very poor or very good.
