Abstract Customer churn is the rate at which customers discontinue doing business with a company over a given time period. It is an essential measure for businesses to monitor high churn rates, as they often indicate underlying issues with services, products, or customer experience, resulting in considerable income loss. Prediction of customer churn is a crucial task aimed at retaining customers and maintaining revenue growth. Traditional machine learning (ML) models often struggle to capture complex temporal dependencies in client behavior data. To address this, an optimized deep learning (DL) approach using a Regularized Bidirectional Long Short-Term… More >

Abstract With the increasing growth of online news, fake electronic news detection has become one of the most important paradigms of modern research. Traditional electronic news detection techniques are generally based on contextual understanding, sequential dependencies, and/or data imbalance. This makes distinction between genuine and fabricated news a challenging task. To address this problem, we propose a novel hybrid architecture, T5-SA-LSTM, which synergistically integrates the T5 Transformer for semantically rich contextual embedding with the Self-Attention-enhanced (SA) Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). The LSTM is trained using the Adam optimizer, which provides faster and more stable convergence compared… More >

Abstract The rapid digitalization of urban infrastructure has made smart cities increasingly vulnerable to sophisticated cyber threats. In the evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the efficacy of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) is increasingly measured by technical performance, operational usability, and adaptability. This study introduces and rigorously evaluates a Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)-Integrated IDS with the utilization of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), CNN-Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), and Random Forest (RF) against both a Baseline Machine Learning (ML) and a Traditional IDS model, through an extensive experimental framework encompassing many performance metrics, including detection latency, accuracy, alert prioritization, classification… More >

Abstract With the increasing severity of network security threats, Network Intrusion Detection (NID) has become a key technology to ensure network security. To address the problem of low detection rate of traditional intrusion detection models, this paper proposes a Dual-Attention model for NID, which combines Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) to design two modules: the FocusConV and the TempoNet module. The FocusConV module, which automatically adjusts and weights CNN extracted local features, focuses on local features that are more important for intrusion detection. The TempoNet module focuses on global information, identifies… More >

Abstract Coordinated control of structural accuracy and mechanical properties is the key to composites manufacturing and the prerequisite for aerospace applications. In particular, accurate and efficient prediction of curing-induced deformation (CID) is of vital importance for fiber reinforced polymer composites quality control. In this study, we explored a novel spatio-temporal prediction model, which incorporates the finite element method with a deep learning framework to efficiently forecast the curing-induced deformation evolution of composite structures. Herein, we developed an integrated convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) network approach to capture both the space-distributed and time-resolved… More >

Abstract Single-signal detection in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems presents a challenge due to the time-varying nature of wireless channels. Although conventional methods have limitations, particularly in multi-input multioutput orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems, this paper addresses this problem by exploring advanced deep learning approaches for combined channel estimation and signal detection. Specifically, we propose two hybrid architectures that integrate a convolutional neural network (CNN) with a recurrent neural network (RNN), namely, CNN-long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM) and CNN-bidirectional-LSTM (CNN-Bi-LSTM), designed to enhance signal detection performance in MIMO-OFDM systems. The proposed CNN-LSTM and CNN-Bi-LSTM architectures are… More >

Abstract The growing integration of nondispatchable renewable energy sources (PV, wind) and the need to cut CO2 emissions make energy management crucial. Microgrids provide a framework for RES integration but face challenges from intermittency, fluctuating loads, cost optimization, and uncertainty in real-time balancing. Accurate short-term forecasting of solar generation and demand is vital for reliable and sustainable operation. While stochastic and machine learning methods are used, they struggle with limited data, complex temporal patterns, and scalability. Key challenges include capturing seasonal to weekly variations and modeling sudden fluctuations in generation and consumption. To address… More >

Abstract The rapid development of technology has led to an ever-increasing demand for electrical energy. In the context of Timor-Leste, which still relies on fossil energy sources with high operational costs and significant environmental impacts, electricity load forecasting is a strategic measure to support the energy transition towards the Net Zero Emission (NZE) target by 2050. This study aims to utilize historical electricity load data for the period 2013–2024, as well as data on external factors affecting electricity consumption, to forecast electricity load in Timor-Leste in the next 10 years (2025–2035). The forecasting results are expected… More >

Abstract Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac disorder characterized by irregular heart rhythms, typically diagnosed using Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. In remote regions with limited healthcare personnel, automated AF detection is extremely important. Although recent studies have explored various machine learning and deep learning approaches, challenges such as signal noise and subtle variations between AF and other cardiac rhythms continue to hinder accurate classification. In this study, we propose a novel framework that integrates robust preprocessing, comprehensive feature extraction, and an ensemble classification strategy. In the first step, ECG signals are divided into equal-sized segments using a… More >

Abstract This study investigates sarcasm detection in text using a dataset of 8095 sentences compiled from MUStARD and HuggingFace repositories, balanced across sarcastic and non-sarcastic classes. A sequential baseline model (LSTM) is compared with transformer-based models (RoBERTa and XLNet), integrated with attention mechanisms. Transformers were chosen for their proven ability to capture long-range contextual dependencies, whereas LSTM serves as a traditional benchmark for sequential modeling. Experimental results show that RoBERTa achieves 0.87 accuracy, XLNet 0.83, and LSTM 0.52. These findings confirm that transformer architectures significantly outperform recurrent models in sarcasm detection. Future work will incorporate multimodal More >
