Effects of data smoothing and recurrent neural network(RNN)algorithms for real-time forecasting of tunnel boring machine(TBM)performance

Tunnel boring machines(TBMs)have been widely utilised in tunnel construction due to their high efficiency and reliability.Accurately predicting TBM performance can improve project time management,cost control,and risk management.This study aims to use deep learning to develop real-time models for predicting the penetration rate(PR).The models are built using data from the Changsha metro project,and their performances are evaluated using unseen data from the Zhengzhou Metro project.In one-step forecast,the predicted penetration rate follows the trend of the measured penetration rate in both training and testing.The autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model is compared with the recurrent neural network(RNN)model.The results show that univariate models,which only consider historical penetration rate itself,perform better than multivariate models that take into account multiple geological and operational parameters(GEO and OP).Next,an RNN variant combining time series of penetration rate with the last-step geological and operational parameters is developed,and it performs better than other models.A sensitivity analysis shows that the penetration rate is the most important parameter,while other parameters have a smaller impact on time series forecasting.It is also found that smoothed data are easier to predict with high accuracy.Nevertheless,over-simplified data can lose real characteristics in time series.In conclusion,the RNN variant can accurately predict the next-step penetration rate,and data smoothing is crucial in time series forecasting.This study provides practical guidance for TBM performance forecasting in practical engineering.

Study on Ecological Change Remote Sensing Monitoring Method Based on Elman Dynamic Recurrent Neural Network

In this paper, Hailin City of Heilongjiang Province, China is taken as the research area. As an important city in Heilongjiang Province, China, the sustainable development of its ecological environment is related to the opening up, economic prosperity and social stability of Northeast China. In this paper, the remote sensing ecological index (RSEI) of Hailin City in recent 20 years was calculated by using Landsat 5/8/9 series satellite images, and the temporal and spatial changes of the ecological environment in Hailin City were further analyzed and the influencing factors were discussed. From 2003 to 2023, the mean value of RSEI in Hailin City decreased and increased, and the ecological environment decreased slightly as a whole. RSEI declined most significantly from 2003 to 2008, and it increased from 2008 to 2013, decreased from 2013 to 2018, and increased from 2018 to 2023 again, with higher RSEI value in the south and lower RSEI value in the northwest. It is suggested to appropriately increase vegetation coverage in the northwest to improve ecological quality. As a result, the predicted value of Elman dynamic recurrent neural network model is consistent with the change trend of the mean value, and the prediction error converges quickly, which can accurately predict the ecological environment quality in the future study area.

New Stability Criteria for Recurrent Neural Networks with a Time-varying Delay

This paper deals with the stability of static recurrent neural networks （RNNs） with a time-varying delay. An augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is employed, in which some useful terms are included. Furthermore, the relationship among the timevarying delay, its upper bound and their difierence, is taken into account, and novel bounding techniques for 1- τ（t） are employed. As a result, without ignoring any useful term in the derivative of the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, the resulting delay-dependent criteria show less conservative than the existing ones. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Robust stability analysis of Takagi-Sugeno uncertain stochastic fuzzy recurrent neural networks with mixed time-varying delays

In this paper, the global stability of Takagi-Sugeno （TS） uncertain stochastic fuzzy recurrent neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays （TSUSFRNNs） is considered. A novel LMI-based stability criterion is obtained by using Lyapunov functional theory to guarantee the asymptotic stability of TSUSFRNNs. The proposed stability conditions are demonstrated through numerical examples. Furthermore, the supplementary requirement that the time derivative of time-varying delays must be smaller than one is removed. Comparison results are demonstrated to show that the proposed method is more able to guarantee the widest stability region than the other methods available in the existing literature.

Novel delay-distribution-dependent stability analysis for continuous-time recurrent neural networks with stochastic delay

In this paper, the problem of delay-distribution-dependent stability is investigated for continuous-time recurrent neural networks （CRNNs） with stochastic delay. Different from the common assumptions on time delays, it is assumed that the probability distribution of the delay taking values in some intervals is known a priori. By making full use of the information concerning the probability distribution of the delay and by using a tighter bounding technique （the reciprocally convex combination method）, less conservative asymptotic mean-square stable sufficient conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. Two numerical examples show that our results are better than the existing ones.

S tability propriety is guaranteed based on the Lyapunov method. A simulation of a two-link robotic manipulator is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of th e proposed control strategy.

Prescribed finite-time stabilization of fuzzy neural networks with time-varying controller

This paper investigates the exponential and prescribed finite-time stabilization with time-varying controller.First,the constraints of boundedness and differentiability on time delays are simultaneously relaxed,the Lipschitz condition for activation function is also relaxed.Second,different from the traditional Lyapunov function,two different time-varying Lyapunov functions are respectively constructed to achieve the exponential and prescribed finite-time stabilization.Significantly,the exponential convergence rate and the settling time are constants that can be given in advance and are not affected by system parameters and initial states.In addition,the time-varying controllers have good tolerance for disturbance caused by discontinuous functions and the disturbance is perfectly resolved and does not affect the control performance.Especially,the form of controllers is relatively simple and there is not necessary to design the fractional-order controllers for prescribed finite-time stabilization.Furthermore,the exponential and prescribed finite-time stabilization for FNNs without delay are respectively established via continuous time-varying state feedback control.Finally,examples show the effectiveness of the proposed control methods.

The simulation results show that CERNN improves the performances of multi-step-prediction of chaotic time series.

A main advantage of the proposed controller is that both problems of ＂curse of dimensionality＂ and ＂explosion of complexity＂ are avoided simultaneously. Finally, simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

This paper covers a novel method named wavelet packet transform based Elman recurrent neural network(WPTERNN) for the simultaneous kinetic determination of periodate and iodate. The wavelet packet representations of signals provide a local time-frequency description, thus in the wavelet packet domain, the quality of the noise removal can be improved.

The relative standard error of prediction(RSEP) for all the components with WPTERNN, Elman RNN and PLS were 3.23%, 11.8% and 10.9% respectively. The experimental results show that the method is better than the others.
