TL;DR: This paper identifies four different types of users involved in data mining applications, namely, data provider, data collector, data miner, and decision maker, and examines various approaches that can help to protect sensitive information.

TL;DR: This paper proposes a model permissioned blockchain edge model for smart grid network (PBEM-SGN) to address the two significant issues in smart grid, privacy protections, and energy security, by means of combining blockchain and edge computing techniques.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that climate conditions, through the effects of rainfall and temperature on mosquito abundance and dengue transmission rate, play key roles in explaining the temporal dynamics of d Dengue incidence in the human population.

TL;DR: Interactions between high temperature and PM10 and O3 in the effects on non-accidental and cardiovascular mortality were observed: low temperature modified the effects of air pollutants but not in a consistent fashion: the effect of PM10 oncardiovascular mortality was diminished but the association between O3 and non- Accidental mortality was strengthened.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that local weather conditions, through their impact on the variation of mosquito abundance, are a driver of dengue dynamics in China and illustrate that spatiotemporal dynamics of d Dengue are predictable from the local vector dynamics, which in turn can be predicted by climate conditions.
