CrimeGNN: Harnessing the Power of Graph Neural Networks for Community Detection in Criminal Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In this paper, we introduce CrimeGNN, a novel application of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) specifically designed to uncover hidden communities within criminal networks. As criminal activities increasingly rely on complex network structures, traditional methods of network analysis often fall short in detecting the intricate and dynamic communities within

Dual‐Atom Catalyst Au@S‐rGO for Rapid and Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Detection of Fentanyl in Serum

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an Au/S‐doped reduced graphene oxide (Au@S‐rGO) sensor for rapid fentanyl detection. DFT simulations and structural analysis confirm atomically dispersed Au/S configurations, enhancing catalytic activity. The sensor achieves a 9.7 nmol L−1 detection limit, 98–104% recovery in human serum, and 85.7–93.6% consistency with mass ...
