How Do Data Collection Strategy and Data Quality Influence the Outcomes of Digital Technology Adoption?

In the era of Industry 4.0 (I4.0), data has become the essential foundation for digital transformation, yet many organizations still struggle to link data practices with digital performance outcomes. This study investigates how data collection strategy and data quality jointly influence the success of digital technology adoption (DTA) in manufacturing firms. Drawing on survey data from 86 firms, the research employs Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to examine the relationships among data collection strategy, data quality, implementation performance, and operational performance. The results show that both data collection strategy and data quality significantly influence implementation and operational performance. However, the effect of data collection strategy on implementation performance is indirect, fully mediated by data quality. The study also finds that data collection strategy influences data quality. These findings demonstrate that data quality acts as a critical bridge between upstream data practices and downstream digital outcomes. The study contributes to the digital transformation and data management literature by empirically validating the central role of data quality and offering practical insights for managers to design and govern data processes strategically. It also sets a foundation for future research on data governance frameworks that integrate data quality assurance, standardization, and lifecycle management to sustain data-driven and digital transformation.

Data governance: A Critical Foundation for Data Driven Decision-Making in Operations and Supply Chains

In the context of Industry 4.0, the manufacturing sector is increasingly facing the challenge of data usability, which is becoming a widespread phenomenon and a new contemporary concern. In response, Data Governance (DG) emerges as a viable avenue to address data challenges. This study aims to call attention on DG research in the field of operations and supply chain management (OSCM). Based on literature research, we investigate research gaps in academia. Built upon three case studies, we exanimated and analyzed real life data issues in the industry. Four types of cause related to data issues were found: 1) human factors, 2) lack of written rules and regulations, 3) ineffective technological hardware and software, and 4) lack of resources. Subsequently, a three-pronged research framework was suggested. This paper highlights the urgency for research on DG in OSCM, outlines a research pathway for fellow scholars, and offers guidance to industry in the design and implementation of DG strategies.

Data Issues in Industrial AI System: A Meta-Review and Research Strategy

In the era of Industry 4.0, artificial intelligence (AI) is assuming an increasingly pivotal role within industrial systems. Despite the recent trend within various industries to adopt AI, the actual adoption of AI is not as developed as perceived. A significant factor contributing to this lag is the data issues in AI implementation. How to address these data issues stands as a significant concern confronting both industry and academia. To address data issues, the first step involves mapping out these issues. Therefore, this study conducts a meta-review to explore data issues and methods within the implementation of industrial AI. Seventy-two data issues are identified and categorized into various stages of the data lifecycle, including data source and collection, data access and storage, data integration and interoperation, data pre-processing, data processing, data security and privacy, and AI technology adoption. Subsequently, the study analyzes the data requirements of various AI algorithms. Building on the aforementioned analyses, it proposes a data management framework, addressing how data issues can be systematically resolved at every stage of the data lifecycle. Finally, the study highlights future research directions. In doing so, this study enriches the existing body of knowledge and provides guidelines for professionals navigating the complex landscape of achieving data usability and usefulness in industrial AI.

Data Governance and Data Management in Operations and Supply Chain: A Literature Review

In the dynamic landscape of contemporary business, the wave in data and technological advancements has directed companies toward embracing data-driven decision-making processes. Despite the vast potential that data holds for strategic insights and operational efficiencies, substantial challenges arise in the form of data issues. Recognizing these obstacles, the imperative for effective data governance (DG) becomes increasingly apparent. This research endeavors to bridge the gap in DG research within the Operations and Supply Chain Management (OSCM) domain through a comprehensive literature review. Initially, we redefine DG through a synthesis of existing definitions, complemented by insights gained from DG practices. Subsequently, we delineate the constituent elements of DG. Building upon this foundation, we develop an analytical framework to scrutinize the collected literature from the perspectives of both OSCM and DG. Beyond a retrospective analysis, this study provides insights for future research directions. Moreover, this study also makes a valuable contribution to the industry, as the insights gained from the literature are directly applicable to real-world scenarios.

Toward Robust Multimodal Learning using Multimodal Foundational Models

Existing multimodal sentiment analysis tasks are highly rely on the assumption that the training and test sets are complete multimodal data, while this assumption can be difficult to hold: the multimodal data are often incomplete in real-world scenarios. Therefore, a robust multimodal model in scenarios with randomly missing modalities is highly preferred. Recently, CLIP-based multimodal foundational models have demonstrated impressive performance on numerous multimodal tasks by learning the aligned cross-modal semantics of image and text pairs, but the multimodal foundational models are also unable to directly address scenarios involving modality absence. To alleviate this issue, we propose a simple and effective framework, namely TRML, Toward Robust Multimodal Learning using Multimodal Foundational Models. TRML employs generated virtual modalities to replace missing modalities, and aligns the semantic spaces between the generated and missing modalities. Concretely, we design a missing modality inference module to generate virtual modaliites and replace missing modalities. We also design a semantic matching learning module to align semantic spaces generated and missing modalities. Under the prompt of complete modality, our model captures the semantics of missing modalities by leveraging the aligned cross-modal semantic space. Experiments demonstrate the superiority of our approach on three multimodal sentiment analysis benchmark datasets, CMU-MOSI, CMU-MOSEI, and MELD.

DetectorNet: Transformer-enhanced Spatial Temporal Graph Neural Network for Traffic Prediction

Detectors with high coverage have direct and far-reaching benefits for road users in route planning and avoiding traffic congestion, but utilizing these data presents unique challenges including: the dynamic temporal correlation, and the dynamic spatial correlation caused by changes in road conditions. Although the existing work considers the significance of modeling with spatial-temporal correlation, what it has learned is still a static road network structure, which cannot reflect the dynamic changes of roads, and eventually loses much valuable potential information. To address these challenges, we propose DetectorNet enhanced by Transformer. Differs from previous studies, our model contains a Multi-view Temporal Attention module and a Dynamic Attention module, which focus on the long-distance and short-distance temporal correlation, and dynamic spatial correlation by dynamically updating the learned knowledge respectively, so as to make accurate prediction. In addition, the experimental results on two public datasets and the comparison results of four ablation experiments proves that the performance of DetectorNet is better than the eleven advanced baselines.
