Double Kropki Sudoku Puzzle (Daily Sudoku League #217)

Double Kropki Sudoku puzzle is a new Sudoku Variation that is going to be part of the 4th round of the World Puzzle Federation's Sudoku Grand Prix (GP) 2018. Double Kropki Sudoku is a very interesting Sudoku variation of Kropki Sudoku. The rules of Kropki Sudoku puzzles are slightly changed to make it Double Kropki Sudoku. However, solving the path for Double Kropki Sudoku is very much different from Kropki Sudoku. In Double Kropki Sudoku, we need to mark which cells will contain Even digits and which cells will contain Odd digits. Anyway, this Double Kropki Sudoku, I post for the practice of Sudoku GP. This is the second Double Kropki Sudoku. Earlier Sudoku is published with the title "Double Kropki Sudoku (Fun With Sudoku #309)" recently which also can be used for Sudoku GP practice. This Double Kropki Sudoku puzzle, I am publishing as part of Daily Sudoku League as the 217th Sudoku Puzzle in this Series.

Rules of Double Kropki Sudoku Puzzle

Standard Sudoku Rules apply. Additionally, Adjacent cells containing numbers whose difference is 2 are marked with a white symbol. Adjacent cells containing numbers whose ratio is 4 are marked with a black symbol. Adjacent cells with no marking must not contain numbers either whose difference is 2 or whose ratio is 4.
