Traditional forecasting models often focus on minimizing prediction error but fail to consider risk-adjusted returns, making them suboptimal for real-world investment applications. Recent advances in deep learning have significantly improved financial time series forecasting, yet existing models primarily optimize for accuracy rather than maximizing risk-adjusted performance metrics such as the Sharpe ratio.</p> <p>This study proposes a Sharpe ratio-optimized deep learning framework for stock performance prediction, integrating risk-sensitive forecasting mechanisms directly into model training. By embedding Sharpe ratio-based loss functions, the model prioritizes investment strategies that yield higher returns per unit of risk. The framework utilizes temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) and attention-based transformers, allowing for both short-term price trend detection and long-range dependency modeling. Additionally, reinforcement learning is employed to dynamically adjust portfolio allocation strategies based on evolving market conditions, ensuring adaptability across different asset classes.</p> <p>Empirical results on real-world stock market datasets demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms traditional forecasting approaches in both predictive accuracy and financial performance. The study highlights the importance of integrating risk-sensitive optimization techniques within deep learning-based stock prediction frameworks, offering a more practical and scalable solution for quantitative investment strategies.</p>2025-03-24T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Markus Schäfer, Thomas Müller, Hugo Fernandezhttps://ojs.apspublisher.com/index.php/apemr/article/view/185The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Sustainable Development and Industrial Transformation2025-03-21T03:29:55+00:00Ziying LiuZiying@apspublisher.comCantao WuCantao@apspublisher.comXing Xuxing.xu@sit.edu.cn<p>Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming global industries, offering unprecedented opportunities for sustainable development and economic growth. This paper examines AI's dual role as a driver of productivity and innovation, as well as its potential to address environmental challenges and reshape global trade. By analyzing AI's applications in agriculture, energy, manufacturing, and transportation, we highlight its ability to optimize resource use, reduce carbon emissions, and promote circular economies. Additionally, we explore AI's impact on global trade, from supply chain optimization to cross-border service innovation. However, the rapid adoption of AI raises challenges, including labor market disruptions, ethical dilemmas, and regulatory gaps. This paper concludes with policy recommendations to ensure AI's benefits are equitably distributed and aligned with global sustainability goals.</p>2025-03-19T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Ziying Liu, Cantao Wu, Xing Xuhttps://ojs.apspublisher.com/index.php/apemr/article/view/208Anomaly Detection in E-Commerce Platforms via Graph Neural Networks2025-03-24T02:58:52+00:00Lucas BeckerBecker@apspublisher.com<p>The rapid expansion of e-commerce platforms has introduced significant challenges in fraud detection, including fake reviews, payment fraud, account takeovers, and product listing scams. Traditional fraud detection methods, such as rule-based systems and supervised learning classifiers, struggle to detect sophisticated fraudulent activities that evolve over time. This study proposes a graph neural network (GNN)-based anomaly detection framework to enhance fraud detection in e-commerce platforms by leveraging the graph-structured nature of user interactions, transactions, and review networks.</p> <p>The proposed model constructs an e-commerce interaction graph, where nodes represent users, products, and transactions, while edges capture relationships such as purchases, reviews, and payment flows. The framework utilizes graph convolutional networks (GCN) and graph attention networks (GAT) to learn spatial dependencies within the transaction network, combined with gated recurrent units (GRU) to model temporal fraud patterns. By integrating spatial and temporal learning, the model can identify suspicious user behaviors, fraudulent transactions, and fake product listings with high accuracy.</p> <p>Experiments conducted on real-world e-commerce datasets demonstrate that the GNN-based model outperforms traditional fraud detection approaches in terms of F1-score, precision, recall, and false positive rate reduction. The framework successfully detects anomalous activities with an F1-score of 0.91, significantly improving fraud detection in large-scale e-commerce environments. These results highlight the potential of graph-based deep learning in securing online marketplaces against fraudulent activities.</p>2025-03-24T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Lucas Beckerhttps://ojs.apspublisher.com/index.php/apemr/article/view/206Competitive Analysis of The Logistics Industry in The Context of Cross-Border E-Commerce2025-03-24T02:44:02+00:00Ziying Liuliuziying2024@163.com<p>This paper describes the current situation of China's cross-border e-commerce logistics industry, mainly using the literature research method, SWOT analysis found that the problems of China's cross-border logistics industry are: the lack of professional cross-border e-commerce logistics personnel, cross-border e-commerce logistics information technology level is not high, the logistics infrastructure is not perfect, the lack of third-party logistics to provide specialized services, and the high cost of logistics.

Traditional cost management methods often rely on experience-based judgment and manual operations, making it difficult to cope with massive and complex data environments, which in turn limits the accuracy and efficiency of cost control. Therefore, how to fully leverage big data technology to achieve refined and intelligent cost management has become a key objective for modern enterprises. This paper focuses on the refined cost management practices driven by big data, analyzing the application scenarios and implementation paths of big data technology in cost management. The goal is to promote the digital transformation of enterprises in cost management, thereby enhancing management efficiency and competitiveness.</p>2025-03-24T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Chao Mahttps://ojs.apspublisher.com/index.php/apemr/article/view/178Building HVAC Electric Load Demand Prediction: Balancing Learning Rate and Hidden Layers for Improved Model Performance 2025-03-21T03:29:58+00:00Meng Gao24117054g@connect.polyu.hkYamei Wang24123093g@connect.polyu.hkYufei Qin24114627g@connect.polyu.hkJiahui Fu24122554g@connect.polyu.hkGuangkai Zhangguangkai.zhang@polyu.edu.hk<p>This study examines the performance of a predictive model for building HVAC electric load demand under three distinct conditions. The analysis focuses on two key metrics: the coefficient of variation of the root mean square error (CVRMSE) and the coefficient of determination (R²). Results indicate a notable disparity in model fitting across the conditions. For conditions 1 (learning rate =0.0001, hidden layer =7) and 3 (learning rate =0.0001, hidden layer =5), an increase in iteration rounds leads to a decrease in CVRMSE, signifying enhanced prediction accuracy. Conversely, condition 2 (learning rate =0.01, hidden layer =7) exhibits an increase in CVRMSE with more iterations, suggesting reduced accuracy. The R² values consistently rise with additional iterations across all conditions, indicating improved model fit. However, condition 2 presents a slightly larger discrepancy between the training and test sets compared to conditions 1 and 3. These findings highlight the varying impacts of iteration on model performance across different scenarios. The study underscores the importance of tailoring model parameters, such as learning rate and hidden layers, to specific conditions to optimize predictive accuracy. This research contributes to the understanding of how iterative processes and model configurations affect the accuracy and reliability of HVAC load predictions, offering insights for future model development and application in energy management systems.</p>2025-03-19T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Meng Gao, Yamei Wang, Yufei Qin, Jiahui Fu, Guangkai ZHANGhttps://ojs.apspublisher.com/index.php/apemr/article/view/207Supplier Quality Management and Green Technology Innovation2025-03-24T02:49:33+00:00Sishuo Liu572430493@qq.com<p>Supplier quality management is an effective way to promote the green transformation of enterprises, which is limited by the degree of supplier quality improvement, and there are big obstacles for traditional manufacturing enterprises to improve production efficiency.
