Modeling Viewing Engagement in Long-Form Video Through the Lens of Expectation-Confirmation Theory
Published on 2025-10-21 by Yingjie Chen, Jin Zhang @MDPI
Abstract: Existing long-form video recommendation systems primarily rely on rating prediction or click-through rate estimation. However, the former is constrained by data sparsity, while the latter fails to capture actual viewing experiences. The accumulation of mid-playback abandonment behaviors undermines platform stickiness and commercial value. To address this issue, this paper seeks to improve viewing engagement. Grounded in Expectation-Confirmation Theory, this paper proposes the Long-Form Video Vie[...]
Our summary: This paper proposes the Long-Form Video Viewing Engagement Prediction (LVVEP) method to enhance viewing engagement. It utilizes Expectation-Confirmation Theory to estimate user expectations and dynamically constructs perceived experience using a GRU-based encoder. Experiments show that LVVEP outperforms existing models, offering insights for optimizing long-form video platforms.

Study on the Thermal and Rheological Properties of Nano-TiO2-Modified Double Phase Change Asphalt
Published on 2025-10-21 by Xingming Liu, Xiaojun Cheng, Shanshan Wang, Sishuang Wei, Meng Guo, Shanglin Song, Fukui Zhang @MDPI
Abstract: In this paper, paraffin-44H (PW-44H) and paraffin-5 (PW-5) were respectively selected as the high/low-temperature phase change core material, and expanded vermiculite (EVM) was selected as the phase change carrier matrix. A high-temperature composite phase change material (CPCM), 44H/EVM, and a low-temperature CPCM, 5/EVM, were prepared by combining melt blending with vacuum adsorption. Nano-TiO2 was incorporated as a thermal conductor into the CPCMs to enhance the heat transfer efficiency betwe[...]
Our summary: This study investigates the thermal and rheological properties of nano-TiO2-modified double phase change asphalt. It demonstrates that incorporating 2% nano-TiO2 optimizes the heat storage performance and thermal conductivity of the composite phase change materials. The findings indicate that double phase change materials effectively reduce the heating and cooling rates of asphalt, enhancing its temperature sensitivity.
