文摘Quantitative phase microscopy(QPM)enables label-free imaging and precise characterization of transparent specimens by measuring phase delay.However,optical aberrations induce wavefront distortions that degrade phase reconstruction accuracy,resolution,and contrast.Existing strategies require diverse measurements or iterative optimization,limiting flexibility for real-time applications.We propose an adaptive aberration-corrected QPM system enabled by a physics-informed cycle-consistent network(PICNet)without prior calibration.By incorporating a learnable physical forward model to approximate the practical image formation and enforcing cycle consistency between object and measurement domains,PICNet can reconstruct the object phase from a single-shot measurement while simultaneously inferring complex aberrations that are difficult to characterize explicitly.Our approach achieves a 60%improvement in structural similarity compared with uncorrected results.Experiments demonstrate that PICNet enables rapid and highfidelity phase retrieval across diverse biological samples with enhanced robustness to aberrations.This physically reliable and self-calibrating framework establishes a general paradigm for solving inverse problems across various computational imaging modalities.

文摘Accurate traffic forecasting is crucial for understanding and managing congestion for effi-cient transportation planning.However,conventional approaches often neglect epistemic uncertainty,which arises from incomplete knowledge across different spatiotemporal scales.This study addresses this challenge by introducing a novel methodology to establish dynamic spatiotemporal correlations that captures the unobserved heterogeneity in travel time through distinct peaks in probability density functions,guided by physics-based prin-ciples.We propose an innovative approach to modifying both prediction and correction steps of the Kalman filter(KF)algorithm by leveraging established spatiotemporal correla-tions.Central to our approach is the development of a novel deep learning(DL)model called the physics informed-graph convolutional gated recurrent neural network(PI-GRNN).Functioning as the state-space model within the KF,the PI-GRNN exploits estab-lished correlations to construct dynamic adjacency matrices that utilize the inherent struc-ture and relationships within the transportation network to capture sequential patterns and dependencies over time.Furthermore,our methodology integrates insights gained from correlations into the correction step of the KF algorithm that helps in enhancing its correctional capabilities.This integrated approach proves instrumental in alleviating the inherent model drift associated with data-driven methods,as periodic corrections through update step of KF refine the predictions generated by the PI-GRNN.To the best of our knowledge,this study represents a pioneering effort in integrating DL and KF algorithms in this unique symbiotic manner.Through extensive experimentation with real-world traf-fic data,we demonstrate the superior performance of our model compared to the bench-mark approaches.
文摘Underwater pipeline inspection plays a vital role in the proactive maintenance and management of critical marine infrastructure and subaquatic systems.However,the inspection of underwater pipelines presents a challenge due to factors such as light scattering,absorption,restricted visibility,and ambient noise.The advancement of deep learning has introduced powerful techniques for processing large amounts of unstructured and imperfect data collected from underwater environments.This study evaluated the efficacy of the You Only Look Once(YOLO)algorithm,a real-time object detection and localization model based on convolutional neural networks,in identifying and classifying various types of pipeline defects in underwater settings.YOLOv8,the latest evolution in the YOLO family,integrates advanced capabilities,such as anchor-free detection,a cross-stage partial network backbone for efficient feature extraction,and a feature pyramid network+path aggregation network neck for robust multi-scale object detection,which make it particularly well-suited for complex underwater environments.Due to the lack of suitable open-access datasets for underwater pipeline defects,a custom dataset was captured using a remotely operated vehicle in a controlled environment.This application has the following assets available for use.Extensive experimentation demonstrated that YOLOv8 X-Large consistently outperformed other models in terms of pipe defect detection and classification and achieved a strong balance between precision and recall in identifying pipeline cracks,rust,corners,defective welds,flanges,tapes,and holes.This research establishes the baseline performance of YOLOv8 for underwater defect detection and showcases its potential to enhance the reliability and efficiency of pipeline inspection tasks in challenging underwater environments.

文摘As deep learning(DL)models are increasingly deployed in sensitive domains(e.g.,healthcare),concerns over privacy and security have intensified.Conventional penetration testing frameworks,such asOWASP and NIST,are effective for traditional networks and applications but lack the capabilities to address DL-specific threats,such asmodel inversion,membership inference,and adversarial attacks.This review provides a comprehensive analysis of penetration testing for the privacy of DL models,examining the shortfalls of existing frameworks,tools,and testing methodologies.Through systematic evaluation of existing literature and empirical analysis,we identify three major contributions:(i)a critical assessment of traditional penetration testing frameworks’inadequacies when applied to DL-specific privacy vulnerabilities,(ii)a comprehensive evaluation of state-of-the-art privacy-preserving methods and their integration with penetration testing workflows,and(iii)the development of a structured framework that combines reconnaissance,threat modeling,exploitation,and post-exploitation phases specifically tailored for DL privacy assessment.Moreover,this review evaluates popular solutions such as IBMAdversarial Robustness Toolbox and TensorFlowPrivacy,alongside privacy-preserving techniques(e.g.,Differential Privacy,Homomorphic Encryption,and Federated Learning),which we systematically analyze through comparative studies of their effectiveness,computational overhead,and practical deployment constraints.While these techniques offer promising safeguards,their adoption is hindered by accuracy loss,performance overheads,and the rapid evolution of attack strategies.Our findings reveal that no single existing solution provides comprehensive protection,which leads us to propose a hybrid approach that strategically combines multiple privacy-preserving mechanisms.The findings of this survey underscore an urgent need for automated,regulationcompliant penetration testing frameworks specifically tailored to DL systems.We argue for hybrid privacy solutions that combinemultiple protectivemechanisms to ensure bothmodel accuracy and privacy.Building on our analysis,we present actionable recommendations for developing adaptive penetration testing strategies that incorporate automated vulnerability assessment,continuous monitoring,and regulatory compliance verification.
文摘As urbanization continues to accelerate,the challenges associated with managing transportation in metropolitan areas become increasingly complex.The surge in population density contributes to traffic congestion,impacting travel experiences and posing safety risks.Smart urban transportation management emerges as a strategic solution,conceptualized here as a multidimensional big data problem.The success of this strategy hinges on the effective collection of information from diverse,extensive,and heterogeneous data sources,necessitating the implementation of full⁃stack Information and Communication Technology(ICT)solutions.The main idea of the work is to investigate the current technologies of Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS)and enhance the safety of urban transportation systems.Machine learning models,trained on historical data,can predict traffic congestion,allowing for the implementation of preventive measures.Deep learning architectures,with their ability to handle complex data representations,further refine traffic predictions,contributing to more accurate and dynamic transportation management.The background of this research underscores the challenges posed by traffic congestion in metropolitan areas and emphasizes the need for advanced technological solutions.By integrating GPS and GIS technologies with machine learning algorithms,this work aims to pay attention to the development of intelligent transportation systems that not only address current challenges but also pave the way for future advancements in urban transportation management.
文摘With the proliferation of Internet of Things(IoT)devices,securing these interconnected systems against cyberattacks has become a critical challenge.Traditional security paradigms often fail to cope with the scale and diversity of IoT network traffic.This paper presents a comparative benchmark of classic machine learning(ML)and state-of-the-art deep learning(DL)algorithms for IoT intrusion detection.Our methodology employs a twophased approach:a preliminary pilot study using a custom-generated dataset to establish baselines,followed by a comprehensive evaluation on the large-scale CICIoTDataset2023.We benchmarked algorithms including Random Forest,XGBoost,CNN,and StackedLSTM.The results indicate that while top-performingmodels frombothcategories achieve over 99%classification accuracy,this metric masks a crucial performance trade-off.We demonstrate that treebased ML ensembles exhibit superior precision(91%)in identifying benign traffic,making them effective at reducing false positives.Conversely,DL models demonstrate superior recall(96%),making them better suited for minimizing the interruption of legitimate traffic.We conclude that the selection of an optimal model is not merely a matter of maximizing accuracy but is a strategic choice dependent on the specific security priority either minimizing false alarms or ensuring service availability.Thiswork provides a practical framework for deploying context-aware security solutions in diverse IoT environments.

文摘Image registration within a solar photosphere sequence is crucial for observational solar physics studies requiring high spatial and temporal resolutions.Previously,we identified residual large-scale nonrigid distortions in high-resolution solar photosphere images from ground-based telescopes after high-resolution reconstruction.Because these distortions are not eliminated by conventional sequence correlation alignment,they can affect the analysis of small-scale activity in the solar photosphere.Here,we implemented an image registration model using deep learning(HCAM-Net)to solve the problem.Within an encoder-decoder framework,we introduced a hybrid attention mechanism to improve context information capture and extract accurate deformation fields.Analyzing solar photosphere images acquired by the New Vacuum Solar Telescope,we demonstrated that the proposed model effectively achieved highly accurate nonrigid image registration.Evaluation metrics and visualization results indicated that our model outperformed current state-of-the-art models,such as VoxelMorph and TransMorph,for nonrigid registration of solar photosphere images,with a structural similarity index measure of 0.965 and a coefficient of determination of 0.976.

文摘This study aimed to integrate Monte Carlo(MC)simulation with deep learning(DL)-based denoising techniques to achieve fast and accurate prediction of high-quality electronic portal imaging device(EPID)transmission dose(TD)for patientspecific quality assurance(PSQA).A total of 100 lung cases were used to obtain the noisy EPID TD by the ARCHER MC code under four kinds of particle numbers(1×10^(6),1×10^(7),1×10^(8)and 1×10^(9)),and the original EPID TD was denoised by the SUNet neural network.The denoised EPID TD was assessed both qualitatively and quantitatively using the structural similarity(SSIM),peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR),and gamma passing rate(GPR)with respect to 1×10^(9)as a reference.The computation times for both the MC simulation and DL-based denoising were recorded.As the number of particles increased,both the quality of the noisy EPID TD and computation time increased significantly(1×10^(6):1.12 s,1×10^(7):1.72 s,1×10^(8):8.62 s,and 1×10^(9):73.89 s).In contrast,the DL-based denoising time remained at 0.13-0.16 s.The denoised EPID TD shows a smoother visual appearance and profile curves,but differences between 1×10^(6)and 1×10^(9)still remain.SSIM improves from 0.61 to 0.95 for 1×10^(6),0.70 to 0.96 for 1×10^(7),and 0.90 to 0.97 for 1×10^(8).PSNR increases by>20%for 1×10^(6)and 1×10^(7),and>10%for 1×10^(8).GPR improves from 48.47%to 89.10%for 1×10^(6),61.04%to 94.35%for 1×10^(7),and 91.88%to 99.55%for 1×10^(8).The method that combines MC simulation with DL-based denoising for EPID TD generation can accelerate TD prediction and maintain high accuracy,offering a promising solution for efficient PSQA.

文摘The solar cycle(SC),a phenomenon caused by the quasi-periodic regular activities in the Sun,occurs approximately every 11 years.Intense solar activity can disrupt the Earth’s ionosphere,affecting communication and navigation systems.Consequently,accurately predicting the intensity of the SC holds great significance,but predicting the SC involves a long-term time series,and many existing time series forecasting methods have fallen short in terms of accuracy and efficiency.The Time-series Dense Encoder model is a deep learning solution tailored for long time series prediction.Based on a multi-layer perceptron structure,it outperforms the best previously existing models in accuracy,while being efficiently trainable on general datasets.We propose a method based on this model for SC forecasting.Using a trained model,we predict the test set from SC 19 to SC 25 with an average mean absolute percentage error of 32.02,root mean square error of 30.3,mean absolute error of 23.32,and R^(2)(coefficient of determination)of 0.76,outperforming other deep learning models in terms of accuracy and training efficiency on sunspot number datasets.Subsequently,we use it to predict the peaks of SC 25 and SC 26.For SC 25,the peak time has ended,but a stronger peak is predicted for SC 26,of 199.3,within a range of 170.8-221.9,projected to occur during April 2034.

文摘Wearable sensors integrated with deep learning techniques have the potential to revolutionize seamless human-machine interfaces for real-time health monitoring,clinical diagnosis,and robotic applications.Nevertheless,it remains a critical challenge to simultaneously achieve desirable mechanical and electrical performance along with biocompatibility,adhesion,self-healing,and environmental robustness with excellent sensing metrics.Herein,we report a multifunctional,anti-freezing,selfadhesive,and self-healable organogel pressure sensor composed of cobalt nanoparticle encapsulated nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes(CoN CNT)embedded in a polyvinyl alcohol-gelatin(PVA/GLE)matrix.Fabricated using a binary solvent system of water and ethylene glycol(EG),the CoN CNT/PVA/GLE organogel exhibits excellent flexibility,biocompatibility,and temperature tolerance with remarkable environmental stability.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy confirms near-stable performance across a broad humidity range(40%-95%RH).Freeze-tolerant conductivity under sub-zero conditions(-20℃)is attributed to the synergistic role of CoN CNT and EG,preserving mobility and network integrity.The Co N CNT/PVA/GLE organogel sensor exhibits high sensitivity of 5.75 k Pa^(-1)in the detection range from 0 to 20 k Pa,ideal for subtle biomechanical motion detection.A smart human-machine interface for English letter recognition using deep learning achieved 98%accuracy.The organogel sensor utility was extended to detect human gestures like finger bending,wrist motion,and throat vibration during speech.
文摘Test case prioritization and ranking play a crucial role in software testing by improving fault detection efficiency and ensuring software reliability.While prioritization selects the most relevant test cases for optimal coverage,ranking further refines their execution order to detect critical faults earlier.This study investigates machine learning techniques to enhance both prioritization and ranking,contributing to more effective and efficient testing processes.We first employ advanced feature engineering alongside ensemble models,including Gradient Boosted,Support Vector Machines,Random Forests,and Naive Bayes classifiers to optimize test case prioritization,achieving an accuracy score of 0.98847 and significantly improving the Average Percentage of Fault Detection(APFD).Subsequently,we introduce a deep Q-learning framework combined with a Genetic Algorithm(GA)to refine test case ranking within priority levels.This approach achieves a rank accuracy of 0.9172,demonstrating robust performance despite the increasing computational demands of specialized variation operators.Our findings highlight the effectiveness of stacked ensemble learning and reinforcement learning in optimizing test case prioritization and ranking.This integrated approach improves testing efficiency,reduces late-stage defects,and improves overall software stability.The study provides valuable information for AI-driven testing frameworks,paving the way for more intelligent and adaptive software quality assurance methodologies.
文摘Accurate streamflow prediction is essential for flood warning,reservoir operation,irrigation scheduling,hydropower planning,and sustainable water management,yet remains challenging due to the complexity of hydrological processes.Although data-driven models often outperform conventional physics-based hydrological modelling approaches,their real-world deployment is limited by cost,infrastructure demands,and the interdisciplinary expertise required.To bridge this gap,this study developed QPred,a regional,lightweight,cost-effective,web-delivered application for daily streamflow forecasting.The study executed an end-to-end workflow,from field data acquisition to accessible web-based deployment for on-demand forecasting.High-resolution rainfall data were recorded with tippingbucket gauges and loggers,while river water depth in the Aglar and Paligaad watersheds was converted to discharge using site-specific rating curves,resulting in a daily dataset of precipitation,river water level and discharge.Four DL architectures were trained,including vanilla Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM),stacked LSTM,bidirectional LSTM,and Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU),and evaluated using Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency(NSE),Coefficient of Determination(R2),Root-Mean-Square-Error-Standard-Deviation Ratio(RSR),and Percentage Bias(PBIAS)metrics.Performance was watershed-specific,as the vanilla LSTM demonstrated the best generalisation for the Aglar watershed(R2=0.88,NSE=0.82,RMSE=0.12 during validation),while the GRU achieved the highest validation accuracy in Paligaad(R2=0.88,NSE=0.88,RMSE=0.49).All models achieved satisfactory to excellent performance during calibration(R2>0.91,NSE>0.91 for both watersheds),demonstrating strong capability to capture streamflow dynamics.The highest performing models were selected and embedded into the QPred application.QPred was developed as a lightweight web pipeline,utilising Google Colab as the primary execution environment,Flask as the backend inference framework,Google Drive for artefact storage,andNgrok for secureHTTPS tunnelling.Auser-friendly front end utilises range sliders(bounded by observed minima and maxima)to gather inputs and provides discharge data along with metadata,thereby enhancing transparency.This work demonstrates that accurate,context-aware deep learningmodels can be delivered through low-cost,web-based platforms,providing a reproducible and scalable pipeline for hydrological applications in other watersheds and for practitioners.

文摘Accurate detection of driver fatigue is essential for improving road safety.This study investigates the effectiveness of using multimodal physiological signals for fatigue detection while incorporating uncertainty quantification to enhance the reliability of predictions.Physiological signals,including Electrocardiogram(ECG),Galvanic Skin Response(GSR),and Electroencephalogram(EEG),were transformed into image representations and analyzed using pretrained deep neu-ral networks.The extracted features were classified through a feedforward neural network,and prediction reliability was assessed using uncertainty quantification techniques such as Monte Carlo Dropout(MCD),model ensembles,and combined approaches.Evaluation metrics included standard measures(sensitivity,specificity,precision,and accuracy)along with uncertainty-aware metrics such as uncertainty sensitivity and uncertainty precision.Across all evaluations,ECG-based models consistently demonstrated strong performance.The findings indicate that combining multimodal physi-ological signals,Transfer Learning(TL),and uncertainty quantification can significantly improve both the accuracy and trustworthiness of fatigue detection systems.This approach supports the development of more reliable driver assistance technologies aimed at preventing fatigue-related accidents.

文摘Although machine learning models have achieved high enough accuracy in predicting shield position deviations,their“black box”nature makes the prediction mechanisms and decision-making processes opaque,leading to weaker explanations and practicability.This study introduces a novel explainable deep learning framework comprising the Informer model with enhanced attention mechanisms(EAMInfor)and deep learning important features(DeepLIFT),aimed at improving the prediction accuracy of shield position deviations and providing interpretability for predictive results.The EAMInfor model attempts to integrate channel attention,spatial attention,and simple attention modules to improve the Informer model's performance.The framework is tested with the four different geological conditions datasets generated from the Xiamen metro line 3,China.Results show that the EAMInfor model outperforms the traditional Informer and comparison models.The analysis with the DeepLIFT method indicates that the push thrust of push cylinder and the earth chamber pressure are the most significant features,while the stroke length of the push cylinder demonstrated lower importance.Furthermore,the variation trends in the significance of data points within input sequences exhibit substantial differences between single and composite strata.This framework not only improves predictive accuracy but also strengthens the credibility and reliability of the results.
文摘At present,energy consumption is one of the main bottlenecks in autonomous mobile robot development.To address the challenge of high energy consumption in path planning for autonomous mobile robots navigating unknown and complex environments,this paper proposes an Attention-Enhanced Dueling Deep Q-Network(ADDueling DQN),which integrates a multi-head attention mechanism and a prioritized experience replay strategy into a Dueling-DQN reinforcement learning framework.A multi-objective reward function,centered on energy efficiency,is designed to comprehensively consider path length,terrain slope,motion smoothness,and obstacle avoidance,enabling optimal low-energy trajectory generation in 3D space from the source.The incorporation of a multihead attention mechanism allows the model to dynamically focus on energy-critical state features—such as slope gradients and obstacle density—thereby significantly improving its ability to recognize and avoid energy-intensive paths.Additionally,the prioritized experience replay mechanism accelerates learning from key decision-making experiences,suppressing inefficient exploration and guiding the policy toward low-energy solutions more rapidly.The effectiveness of the proposed path planning algorithm is validated through simulation experiments conducted in multiple off-road scenarios.Results demonstrate that AD-Dueling DQN consistently achieves the lowest average energy consumption across all tested environments.Moreover,the proposed method exhibits faster convergence and greater training stability compared to baseline algorithms,highlighting its global optimization capability under energy-aware objectives in complex terrains.This study offers an efficient and scalable intelligent control strategy for the development of energy-conscious autonomous navigation systems.
