Estimation of unloading relaxation depth of Baihetan Arch Dam foundation using long-short term memory network

The unloading relaxation caused by excavation for construction of high arch dams is an important factor influencing the foundation’s integrity and strength.To evaluate the degree of unloading relaxation,the long-short term memory(LSTM)network was used to estimate the depth of unloading relaxation zones on the left bank foundation of the Baihetan Arch Dam.Principal component analysis indicates that rock charac-teristics,the structural plane,the protection layer,lithology,and time are the main factors.The LSTM network results demonstrate the unloading relaxation characteristics of the left bank,and the relationships with the factors were also analyzed.The structural plane has the most significant influence on the distribution of unloading relaxation zones.Compared with massive basalt,the columnar jointed basalt experiences a more significant unloading relaxation phenomenon with a clear time effect,with the average unloading relaxation period being 50 d.The protection layer can effectively reduce the unloading relaxation depth by approximately 20%.

Online multi-target intelligent tracking using a deep long-short term memory network

Multi-target tracking is facing the difficulties of modeling uncertain motion and observation noise.Traditional tracking algorithms are limited by specific models and priors that may mismatch a real-world scenario.In this paper,considering the model-free purpose,we present an online Multi-Target Intelligent Tracking(MTIT)algorithm based on a Deep Long-Short Term Memory(DLSTM)network for complex tracking requirements,named the MTIT-DLSTM algorithm.Firstly,to distinguish trajectories and concatenate the tracking task in a time sequence,we define a target tuple set that is the labeled Random Finite Set(RFS).Then,prediction and update blocks based on the DLSTM network are constructed to predict and estimate the state of targets,respectively.Further,the prediction block can learn the movement trend from the historical state sequence,while the update block can capture the noise characteristic from the historical measurement sequence.Finally,a data association scheme based on Hungarian algorithm and the heuristic track management strategy are employed to assign measurements to targets and adapt births and deaths.Experimental results manifest that,compared with the existing tracking algorithms,our proposed MTIT-DLSTM algorithm can improve effectively the accuracy and robustness in estimating the state of targets appearing at random positions,and be applied to linear and nonlinear multi-target tracking scenarios.

Short-TermWind Power Prediction Based on Combinatorial Neural Networks

Wind power volatility not only limits the large-scale grid connection but also poses many challenges to safe grid operation.Accurate wind power prediction can mitigate the adverse effects of wind power volatility on wind power grid connections.For the characteristics of wind power antecedent data and precedent data jointly to determine the prediction accuracy of the prediction model,the short-term prediction of wind power based on a combined neural network is proposed.First,the Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory(BiLSTM)network prediction model is constructed,and the bi-directional nature of the BiLSTM network is used to deeply mine the wind power data information and find the correlation information within the data.Secondly,to avoid the limitation of a single prediction model when the wind power changes abruptly,the Wavelet Transform-Improved Adaptive Genetic Algorithm-Back Propagation(WT-IAGA-BP)neural network based on the combination of the WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network is constructed for the short-term prediction of wind power.Finally,comparing with LSTM,BiLSTM,WT-LSTM,WT-BiLSTM,WT-IAGA-BP,and WT-IAGA-BP&LSTM prediction models,it is verified that the wind power short-term prediction model based on the combination of WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network has higher prediction accuracy.

Conditional Random Field Tracking Model Based on a Visual Long Short Term Memory Network

In dense pedestrian tracking,frequent object occlusions and close distances between objects cause difficulty when accurately estimating object trajectories.In this study,a conditional random field tracking model is established by using a visual long short term memory network in the three-dimensional(3D)space and the motion estimations jointly performed on object trajectory segments.Object visual field information is added to the long short term memory network to improve the accuracy of the motion related object pair selection and motion estimation.To address the uncertainty of the length and interval of trajectory segments,a multimode long short term memory network is proposed for the object motion estimation.The tracking performance is evaluated using the PETS2009 dataset.The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better performance than the tracking methods based on the independent motion estimation.

Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network-Based Acoustic Model Using Connectionist Temporal Classification on a Large-Scale Training Corpus

A Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) Recurrent Neural Network(RNN) has driven tremendous improvements on an acoustic model based on Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM). However, these models based on a hybrid method require a forced aligned Hidden Markov Model(HMM) state sequence obtained from the GMM-based acoustic model. Therefore, it requires a long computation time for training both the GMM-based acoustic model and a deep learning-based acoustic model. In order to solve this problem, an acoustic model using CTC algorithm is proposed. CTC algorithm does not require the GMM-based acoustic model because it does not use the forced aligned HMM state sequence. However, previous works on a LSTM RNN-based acoustic model using CTC used a small-scale training corpus. In this paper, the LSTM RNN-based acoustic model using CTC is trained on a large-scale training corpus and its performance is evaluated. The implemented acoustic model has a performance of 6.18% and 15.01% in terms of Word Error Rate(WER) for clean speech and noisy speech, respectively. This is similar to a performance of the acoustic model based on the hybrid method.

ART-2 neural network based on eternal term memory vector:Architecture and algorithm

Aimed at the problem that the traditional ART-2 neural network can not recognize a gradually changing course, an eternal term memory (ETM) vector is introduced into ART-2 to simulate the function of human brain, i.e. the deep remembrance for the initial impression.. The eternal term memory vector is determined only by the initial vector that establishes category neuron node and is used to keep the remembrance for this vector for ever. Two times of vigilance algorithm are put forward, and the posterior input vector must first pass the first vigilance of this eternal term memory vector, only succeeded has it the qualification to begin the second vigilance of long term memory vector. The long term memory vector can be revised only when both of the vigilances are passed. Results of recognition examples show that the improved ART-2 overcomes the defect of traditional ART-2 and can recognize a gradually changing course effectively.

In the electricity market,fluctuations in real-time prices are unstable,and changes in short-term load are determined by many factors.By studying the timing of charging and discharging,as well as the economic benefits of energy storage in the process of participating in the power market,this paper takes energy storage scheduling as merely one factor affecting short-term power load,which affects short-term load time series along with time-of-use price,holidays,and temperature.A deep learning network is used to predict the short-term load,a convolutional neural network(CNN)is used to extract the features,and a long short-term memory(LSTM)network is used to learn the temporal characteristics of the load value,which can effectively improve prediction accuracy.Taking the load data of a certain region as an example,the CNN-LSTM prediction model is compared with the single LSTM prediction model.The experimental results show that the CNN-LSTM deep learning network with the participation of energy storage in dispatching can have high prediction accuracy for short-term power load forecasting.

Recent advancements have established machine learning's utility in predicting nonlinear fluid dynamics,with predictive accuracy being a central motivation for employing neural networks.However,the pattern recognition central to the networks function is equally valuable for enhancing our dynamical insight into the complex fluid dynamics.In this paper,a single-layer convolutional neural network(CNN)was trained to recognize three qualitatively different subsonic buffet flows(periodic,quasi-periodic and chaotic)over a high-incidence airfoil,and a near-perfect accuracy was obtained with only a small training dataset.The convolutional kernels and corresponding feature maps,developed by the model with no temporal information provided,identified large-scale coherent structures in agreement with those known to be associated with buffet flows.Sensitivity to hyperparameters including network architecture and convolutional kernel size was also explored.The coherent structures identified by these models enhance our dynamical understanding of subsonic buffet over high-incidence airfoils over a wide range of Reynolds numbers.

Soil NOx Emission Prediction via Recurrent Neural Networks

This paper presents designing sequence-to-sequence recurrent neural network(RNN)architectures for a novel study to predict soil NOx emissions,driven by the imperative of understanding and mitigating environmental impact.The study utilizes data collected by the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)to develop two distinct RNN predictive models:one built upon the long-short term memory(LSTM)and the other utilizing the gated recurrent unit(GRU).These models are fed with a combination of historical and anticipated air temperature,air moisture,and NOx emissions as inputs to forecast future NOx emissions.Both LSTM and GRU models can capture the intricate pulse patterns inherent in soil NOx emissions.Notably,the GRU model emerges as the superior performer,surpassing the LSTM model in predictive accuracy while demonstrating efficiency by necessitating less training time.Intriguingly,the investigation into varying input features reveals that relying solely on past NOx emissions as input yields satisfactory performance,highlighting the dominant influence of this factor.The study also delves into the impact of altering input series lengths and training data sizes,yielding insights into optimal configurations for enhanced model performance.Importantly,the findings promise to advance our grasp of soil NOx emission dynamics,with implications for environmental management strategies.Looking ahead,the anticipated availability of additional measurements is poised to bolster machine-learning model efficacy.Furthermore,the future study will explore physical-based RNNs,a promising avenue for deeper insights into soil NOx emission prediction.

An Improved Time Feedforward Connections Recurrent Neural Networks

Recurrent Neural Networks(RNNs)have been widely applied to deal with temporal problems,such as flood forecasting and financial data processing.On the one hand,traditional RNNs models amplify the gradient issue due to the strict time serial dependency,making it difficult to realize a long-term memory function.On the other hand,RNNs cells are highly complex,which will signifi-cantly increase computational complexity and cause waste of computational resources during model training.In this paper,an improved Time Feedforward Connections Recurrent Neural Networks(TFC-RNNs)model was first proposed to address the gradient issue.A parallel branch was introduced for the hidden state at time t−2 to be directly transferred to time t without the nonlinear transforma-tion at time t−1.This is effective in improving the long-term dependence of RNNs.Then,a novel cell structure named Single Gate Recurrent Unit(SGRU)was presented.This cell structure can reduce the number of parameters for RNNs cell,consequently reducing the computational complexity.Next,applying SGRU to TFC-RNNs as a new TFC-SGRU model solves the above two difficulties.Finally,the performance of our proposed TFC-SGRU was verified through sev-eral experiments in terms of long-term memory and anti-interference capabilities.Experimental results demonstrated that our proposed TFC-SGRU model can cap-ture helpful information with time step 1500 and effectively filter out the noise.The TFC-SGRU model accuracy is better than the LSTM and GRU models regarding language processing ability.

Lithium-ion batteries are the most widely accepted type of battery in the electric vehicle industry because of some of their positive inherent characteristics. However, the safety problems associated with inaccurate estimation and prediction of the state of health of these batteries have attracted wide attention due to the adverse negative effect on vehicle safety. In this paper, both machine and deep learning models were used to estimate the state of health of lithium-ion batteries.

Dynamic Resource Allocation in LTE Radio Access Network Using Machine Learning Techniques

Current LTE networks are experiencing significant growth in the number of users worldwide. The use of data services for online browsing, e-learning, online meetings and initiatives such as smart cities means that subscribers stay connected for long periods, thereby saturating a number of signalling resources. One of such resources is the Radio Resource Connected (RRC) parameter, which is allocated to eNodeBs with the aim of limiting the number of connected simultaneously in the network. The fixed allocation of this parameter means that, depending on the traffic at different times of the day and the geographical position, some eNodeBs are saturated with RRC resources (overused) while others have unused RRC resources. However, as these resources are limited, there is the problem of their underutilization (non-optimal utilization of resources at the eNodeB level) due to static allocation (manual configuration of resources). The objective of this paper is to design an efficient machine learning model that will take as input some key performance indices (KPIs) like traffic data, RRC, simultaneous users, etc., for each eNodeB per hour and per day and accurately predict the number of needed RRC resources that will be dynamically allocated to them in order to avoid traffic and financial losses to the mobile network operator. To reach this target, three machine learning algorithms have been studied namely: linear regression, convolutional neural networks and long short-term memory (LSTM) to train three models and evaluate them. The model trained with the LSTM algorithm gave the best performance with 97% accuracy and was therefore implemented in the proposed solution for RRC resource allocation. An interconnection architecture is also proposed to embed the proposed solution into the Operation and maintenance network of a mobile network operator. In this way, the proposed solution can contribute to developing and expanding the concept of Self Organizing Network (SON) used in 4G and 5G networks.
