Abstract Accurate load forecasting forms a crucial foundation for implementing household demand response plans and optimizing load scheduling. When dealing with short-term load data characterized by substantial fluctuations, a single prediction model is hard to capture temporal features effectively, resulting in diminished prediction accuracy. In this study, a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates attention mechanism, convolution neural network (CNN), improved chaotic particle swarm optimization (ICPSO), and long short-term memory (LSTM), is proposed for short-term household load forecasting. Firstly, the CNN model is employed to extract features from the original data, enhancing the quality of data… More >

Abstract A significant obstacle in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is the capacity to predict traffic flow. Recent advancements in deep neural networks have enabled the development of models to represent traffic flow accurately. However, accurately predicting traffic flow at the individual road level is extremely difficult due to the complex interplay of spatial and temporal factors. This paper proposes a technique for predicting short-term traffic flow data using an architecture that utilizes convolutional bidirectional long short-term memory (Conv-BiLSTM) with attention mechanisms. Prior studies neglected to include data pertaining to factors such as holidays, weather conditions, and More >

Abstract Electricity theft is a widespread non-technical issue that has a negative impact on both power grids and electricity users. It hinders the economic growth of utility companies, poses electrical risks, and impacts the high energy costs borne by consumers. The development of smart grids is crucial for the identification of power theft since these systems create enormous amounts of data, including information on client consumption, which may be used to identify electricity theft using machine learning and deep learning techniques. Moreover, there also exist different solutions such as hardware-based solutions to detect electricity theft that… More >

Abstract Background: Sepsis, a potentially fatal inflammatory disease triggered by infection, carries significant health implications worldwide. Timely detection is crucial as sepsis can rapidly escalate if left undetected. Recent advancements in deep learning (DL) offer powerful tools to address this challenge. Aim: Thus, this study proposed a hybrid CNNBDLSTM, a combination of a convolutional neural network (CNN) with a bi-directional long short-term memory (BDLSTM) model to predict sepsis onset. Implementing the proposed model provides a robust framework that capitalizes on the complementary strengths of both architectures, resulting in more accurate and timelier predictions. Method: The sepsis prediction… More >

Abstract Automatic detection of student engagement levels from videos, which is a spatio-temporal classification problem is crucial for enhancing the quality of online education. This paper addresses this challenge by proposing four novel hybrid end-to-end deep learning models designed for the automatic detection of student engagement levels in e-learning videos. The evaluation of these models utilizes the DAiSEE dataset, a public repository capturing student affective states in e-learning scenarios. The initial model integrates EfficientNetV2-L with Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) and attains an accuracy of 61.45%. Subsequently, the second model combines EfficientNetV2-L with bidirectional GRU (Bi-GRU), yielding More >

Abstract Failure detection is an essential task in industrial systems for preventing costly downtime and ensuring the seamless operation of the system. Current industrial processes are getting smarter with the emergence of Industry 4.0. Specifically, various modernized industrial processes have been equipped with quite a few sensors to collect process-based data to find faults arising or prevailing in processes along with monitoring the status of processes. Fault diagnosis of rotating machines serves a main role in the engineering field and industrial production. Due to the disadvantages of existing fault, diagnosis approaches, which greatly depend on professional… More >

Abstract Many plant species have a startling degree of morphological similarity, making it difficult to split and categorize them reliably. Unknown plant species can be challenging to classify and segment using deep learning. While using deep learning architectures has helped improve classification accuracy, the resulting models often need to be more flexible and require a large dataset to train. For the sake of taxonomy, this research proposes a hybrid method for categorizing guava, potato, and java plum leaves. Two new approaches are used to form the hybrid model suggested here. The guava, potato, and java plum More >

Abstract Optical image-based ship detection can ensure the safety of ships and promote the orderly management of ships in offshore waters. Current deep learning researches on optical image-based ship detection mainly focus on improving one-stage detectors for real-time ship detection but sacrifices the accuracy of detection. To solve this problem, we present a hybrid ship detection framework which is named EfficientShip in this paper. The core parts of the EfficientShip are DLA-backboned object location (DBOL) and CascadeRCNN-guided object classification (CROC). The DBOL is responsible for finding potential ship objects, and the CROC is used to categorize More >

Abstract Spondylolisthesis is a chronic disease, and a timely diagnosis of it may help in avoiding surgery. Disease identification in x-ray radiographs is very challenging. Strengthening the feature extraction tool in VGG16 has improved the classification rate. But the fully connected layers of VGG16 are not efficient at capturing the positional structure of an object in images. Capsule network (CapsNet) works with capsules (neuron clusters) rather than a single neuron to grasp the properties of the provided image to match the pattern. In this study, an integrated model that is a combination of VGG16 and CapsNet… More >

Abstract Considerable resources, technology, and efforts are being utilized worldwide to eradicate the coronavirus. Although certain measures taken to prevent the further spread of the disease have been successful, efforts to completely wipe out the coronavirus have been insufficient. Coronavirus patients have symptoms similar to those of chest Tuberculosis (TB) or pneumonia patients. Chest tuberculosis and coronavirus are similar because both diseases affect the lungs, cause coughing and produce an irregular respiratory system. Both diseases can be confirmed through X-ray imaging. It is a difficult task to diagnose COVID-19, as coronavirus testing kits are neither excessively… More >
