As the driving force for the upgrading of the global industrial structure, digital technology has been at the helm of transforming the current economic and technological paradigm. This study empirically analyzes the role of the digital economy in the upgrading industrial structure using panel data from 237 prefecture-level cities in China from 2011–2019. Empirical results show that the development of the digital economy has a significant positive and direct effect on the upgrading of industrial structure, as measured by the two indicators of advancement and servitization. In addition, the digital economy significantly promotes upgrading of the technological progress and human capital of Chinese cities, thus promoting upgrading of the industrial structure. Moreover, the spatial autoregressive model (SAR) and the Spatial Durbin model (SDM) both show that the digital economy has a positive spatial spillover effect on upgrading of the industrial structure.

Financial data as a kind of multimedia data contains rich information, which has been widely used for data analysis task. However, how to predict the stock price is still a hot research problem for investors and researchers in financial field. Forecasting stock prices becomes an extremely challenging task due to high noise, nonlinearity, and volatility of the stock price time series data. In order to provide better prediction results of stock price, a new stock price prediction model named as CNN-BiLSTM-ECA is proposed, which combines Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Bidirectional Long Short-term Memory (BiLSTM) network, and Attention Mechanism (AM). More specifically, CNN is utilized to extract the deep features of stock data for reducing the influence of high noise and nonlinearity. Then, BiLSTM network is employed to predict the stock price based on the extracted deep features. Meanwhile, a novel Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) module is introduced into the network model to further improve the sensitivity of the network to the important features and key information. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted on the three stock datasets such as Shanghai Composite Index, China Unicom, and CSI 300. Compared with the existing methods, the experimental results verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed CNN-BILSTM-ECA network model, which can provide an important reference for investors to make decisions.

The prediction of stock excess returns is an important research topic for quantitative trading, and stock price prediction based on machine learning is receiving more and more attention. This article takes the data of Chinese A-shares from July 2014 to September 2017 as the research object, and proposes a method of stock excess return forecasting that combines research reports and investor sentiment. The proposed method measures individual stocks released by analysts, separates the two indicators of research report attention and rating sentiment, calculates investor sentiment based on external market factors, and uses the LSTM model to represent the time series characteristics of stocks. The results show that (1) the accuracy and F1 evaluation indicators are used, and the proposed algorithm is better than the benchmark algorithm. (2) The performance of deep learning LSTM algorithm is better than traditional machine learning algorithm SVM. (3) Investor sentiment as the initial hidden state of the model can improve the accuracy of the algorithm. (4) The attention of the split research report takes the two indicators of investor sentiment and price as the input of the model, which can effectively improve the performance of the model.
