文摘Photoacoustic-computed tomography is a novel imaging technique that combines high absorption contrast and deep tissue penetration capability,enabling comprehensive three-dimensional imaging of biological targets.However,the increasing demand for higher resolution and real-time imaging results in significant data volume,limiting data storage,transmission and processing efficiency of system.Therefore,there is an urgent need for an effective method to compress the raw data without compromising image quality.This paper presents a photoacoustic-computed tomography 3D data compression method and system based on Wavelet-Transformer.This method is based on the cooperative compression framework that integrates wavelet hard coding with deep learning-based soft decoding.It combines the multiscale analysis capability of wavelet transforms with the global feature modeling advantage of Transformers,achieving high-quality data compression and reconstruction.Experimental results using k-wave simulation suggest that the proposed compression system has advantages under extreme compression conditions,achieving a raw data compression ratio of up to 1:40.Furthermore,three-dimensional data compression experiment using in vivo mouse demonstrated that the maximum peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and structural similarity index(SSIM)values of reconstructed images reached 38.60 and 0.9583,effectively overcoming detail loss and artifacts introduced by raw data compression.All the results suggest that the proposed system can significantly reduce storage requirements and hardware cost,enhancing computational efficiency and image quality.These advantages support the development of photoacoustic-computed tomography toward higher efficiency,real-time performance and intelligent functionality.

文摘Urban traffic generates massive and diverse data,yet most systems remain fragmented.Current approaches to congestion management suffer from weak data consistency and poor scalability.This study addresses this gap by proposing the Urban Traffic Congestion Unified Metadata Model(UTC-UMM).The goal is to provide a standardized and extensible framework for describing,extracting,and storing multisource traffic data in smart cities.The model defines a two-tier specification that organizes nine core traffic resource classes.It employs an eXtensible Markup Language(XML)Schema that connects general elements with resource-specific elements.This design ensures both syntactic and semantic interoperability across siloed datasets.Extension principles allow new elements or constraints to be introducedwithout breaking backward compatibility.Adistributed pipeline is implemented usingHadoop Distributed File System(HDFS)and HBase.It integrates computer vision for video and natural language processing for text to automate metadata extraction.Optimized row-key designs enable low-latency queries.Performance is tested with the Yahoo!Cloud Serving Benchmark(YCSB),which shows linear scalability and high throughput.The results demonstrate that UTC-UMM can unify heterogeneous traffic data while supporting real-time analytics.The discussion highlights its potential to improve data reuse,portability,and scalability in urban congestion studies.Future research will explore integration with association rulemining and advanced knowledge representation to capture richer spatiotemporal traffic patterns.

文摘With the evolution of next-generation network technologies,the complexity of network management has significantly increased,and the means of network attacks are diversified,bringing new challenges to network traffic classification.This paper presents a general AIdriven network traffic classification workflow and elaborates on a traffic data and feature engineering framework.Most importantly,it analyzes the concept and causes of data distribution shifts in ne twork traffic,proposing detection methods and countermeasures.Experimental results on real traffic collected at different time intervals show that application evolution can induce data distribution shifts,which in turn lead to a noticeable degradation in traffic classification performance.Comparative drift detection experiments further confirm that such shifts are more evident over long-term intervals,while short-term traffic remains relatively stable.These findings demonstrate the necessity of incorporating drift-aware mechanisms into AI-driven network traffic classification systems.

文摘In today's connected world,the generation of massive streaming data across diverse domains has become commonplace.In the presence of concept drift,class imbalance,label scarcity,and new class emergence,these challenges jointly degrade representation stability,bias learning toward outdated distributions,and reduce the resilience and reliability of detection in dynamic environments.This paper proposes a streaming classincremental learning(SCIL)framework to address these issues.The SCIL framework integrates an autoencoder(AE)with a multi-layer perceptron for multi-class prediction,employs a dual-loss strategy(classification and reconstruction)for prediction and new class detection,uses corrected pseudo-labels for online training,manages classes with queues,and applies oversampling to handle imbalance.The rationale behind the method's structure is elucidated through ablation studies,and a comprehensive experimental evaluation is performed using both real-world and synthetic datasets that feature class imbalance,incremental classes,and concept drifts.Our results demonstrate that SCIL outperforms strong baselines and state-of-the-art methods.In line with our commitment to Open Science,we make our code and datasets available to the community.

文摘The increasing complexity of China’s electricity market creates substantial challenges for settlement automation,data consistency,and operational scalability.Existing provincial settlement systems are fragmented,lack a unified data structure,and depend heavily on manual intervention to process high-frequency and retroactive transactions.To address these limitations,a graph-based unified settlement framework is proposed to enhance automation,flexibility,and adaptability in electricity market settlements.A flexible attribute-graph model is employed to represent heterogeneousmulti-market data,enabling standardized integration,rapid querying,and seamless adaptation to evolving business requirements.An extensible operator library is designed to support configurable settlement rules,and a suite of modular tools—including dataset generation,formula configuration,billing templates,and task scheduling—facilitates end-to-end automated settlement processing.A robust refund-clearing mechanism is further incorporated,utilizing sandbox execution,data-version snapshots,dynamic lineage tracing,and real-time changecapture technologies to enable rapid and accurate recalculations under dynamic policy and data revisions.Case studies based on real-world data from regional Chinese markets validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach,demonstrating marked improvements in computational efficiency,system robustness,and automation.Moreover,enhanced settlement accuracy and high temporal granularity improve price-signal fidelity,promote cost-reflective tariffs,and incentivize energy-efficient and demand-responsive behavior among market participants.The method not only supports equitable and transparent market operations but also provides a generalizable,scalable foundation for modern electricity settlement platforms in increasingly complex and dynamic market environments.

文摘Autism spectrum disorder(AsD)is a highly heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder.Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving outcomes.Traditional single-modality diagnostic methods are subjective,limited,and struggle to reveal the underlying pathological mechanisms.In contrast,multimodal data analysis integrates behavioral,physiological,and neuroimaging information with advanced machine-learning and deeplearning algorithms to overcome these limitations.In this review,we surveyed the recent pediatric AsD literature,highlighting artificial intelligence-driven diagnostic techniques,multimodal data fusion strategies,and emerging trends in ASD assessment.We surveyed studies that integrated two or more modalities and summarized the fusion levels,learning paradigms,tasks,datasets,and metrics.Multimodal approaches outperform singlemodality baselines in classification,severity estimation,and subtyping by leveraging complementary information and reducing modality-specific biases.Multimodal approaches significantly enhance diagnostic accuracy and comprehensiveness,enabling early screening of AsD,symptom subtyping,severity assessment,and personalized interventions.Advances in multimodal fusion techniques have promoted progress in precision medicine for the treatment of ASD.

文摘With the increasing emphasis on personal information protection,encryption through security protocols has emerged as a critical requirement in data transmission and reception processes.Nevertheless,IoT ecosystems comprise heterogeneous networks where outdated systems coexist with the latest devices,spanning a range of devices from non-encrypted ones to fully encrypted ones.Given the limited visibility into payloads in this context,this study investigates AI-based attack detection methods that leverage encrypted traffic metadata,eliminating the need for decryption and minimizing system performance degradation—especially in light of these heterogeneous devices.Using the UNSW-NB15 and CICIoT-2023 dataset,encrypted and unencrypted traffic were categorized according to security protocol,and AI-based intrusion detection experiments were conducted for each traffic type based on metadata.To mitigate the problem of class imbalance,eight different data sampling techniques were applied.The effectiveness of these sampling techniques was then comparatively analyzed using two ensemble models and three Deep Learning(DL)models from various perspectives.The experimental results confirmed that metadata-based attack detection is feasible using only encrypted traffic.In the UNSW-NB15 dataset,the f1-score of encrypted traffic was approximately 0.98,which is 4.3%higher than that of unencrypted traffic(approximately 0.94).In addition,analysis of the encrypted traffic in the CICIoT-2023 dataset using the same method showed a significantly lower f1-score of roughly 0.43,indicating that the quality of the dataset and the preprocessing approach have a substantial impact on detection performance.Furthermore,when data sampling techniques were applied to encrypted traffic,the recall in the UNSWNB15(Encrypted)dataset improved by up to 23.0%,and in the CICIoT-2023(Encrypted)dataset by 20.26%,showing a similar level of improvement.Notably,in CICIoT-2023,f1-score and Receiver Operation Characteristic-Area Under the Curve(ROC-AUC)increased by 59.0%and 55.94%,respectively.These results suggest that data sampling can have a positive effect even in encrypted environments.However,the extent of the improvement may vary depending on data quality,model architecture,and sampling strategy.

文摘Sign language is a primary mode of communication for individuals with hearing impairments,conveying meaning through hand shapes and hand movements.Contrary to spoken or written languages,sign language relies on the recognition and interpretation of hand gestures captured in video data.However,sign language datasets remain relatively limited compared to those of other languages,which hinders the training and performance of deep learning models.Additionally,the distinct word order of sign language,unlike that of spoken language,requires context-aware and natural sentence generation.To address these challenges,this study applies data augmentation techniques to build a Korean Sign Language dataset and train recognition models.Recognized words are then reconstructed into complete sentences.The sign recognition process uses OpenCV and MediaPipe to extract hand landmarks from sign language videos and analyzes hand position,orientation,and motion.The extracted features are converted into time-series data and fed into a Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)model.The proposed recognition framework achieved an accuracy of up to 81.25%,while the sentence generation achieved an accuracy of up to 95%.The proposed approach is expected to be applicable not only to Korean Sign Language but also to other low-resource sign languages for recognition and translation tasks.
文摘Indeed,a range of systems in the environment requires timely,spatially explicit,and credible information to support its environmental decision-making,but no one observing system can give the complete and reliable measures of the Earth system across scales.This review summarizes how the realization of the Compute the Planet is underway in the form of machine learning,remote sensing,and sensor data fusion to generate decision-ready environmental insights.We use the application-first approach,which considers remote sensing,in situ and Internet of Things(IoT)sensing,and physics-based models as complementary streams of evidence with similar strengths and failures.We look critically at how an integrated system can convert heterogeneous observations to action products across three high impact application areas:atmosphere and air quality,water–land–ecosystem dynamics,and hazards.Rapid-response situational awareness,ecosystem condition metrics,drought and flood indicators,exposure maps,and hazard/extreme indicators are key products.The integrated systems to environment interface in three high impact application areas:atmosphere and air quality,water-land-ecosystem dynamics,and hazard Examine Our operational requirements can often determine real-life value such as latency,time stability,smooth degradation in the presence of missing or degraded inputs,and calibrated uncertainty usable in thresholdbased decisions.These pitfalls are common across fields:mismatch in the scale between a point sensor and a gridded product,objectives on proxies in remotely sensed measurements,domain shift in the extremes and changing baselines,and evaluation aspects,which overestimate generalization because of spatiotemporal autocorrelation.Based on these lessons,we present cross-domain proposals for strong validation,uncertainty quantification,provenance,and versioning,as well as fair performance evaluation.We conclude that the next era of environmental intelligence will see a reduction in average accuracy improvement and an increase in terms of robustness,transparency,and operational responsibility,thus allowing the integrated environmental intelligence system to be deployed,which may be relied on to monitor human health,resource allocation,and survival in a more climate-adapted world.

文摘To ensure the safe and stable operation of rotating machinery,intelligent fault diagnosis methods hold significant research value.However,existing diagnostic approaches largely rely on manual feature extraction and expert experience,which limits their adaptability under variable operating conditions and strong noise environments,severely affecting the generalization capability of diagnostic models.To address this issue,this study proposes a multimodal fusion fault diagnosis framework based on Mel-spectrograms and automated machine learning(AutoML).The framework first extracts fault-sensitive Mel time–frequency features from acoustic signals and fuses them with statistical features of vibration signals to construct complementary fault representations.On this basis,automated machine learning techniques are introduced to enable end-to-end diagnostic workflow construction and optimal model configuration acquisition.Finally,diagnostic decisions are achieved by automatically integrating the predictions of multiple high-performance base models.Experimental results on a centrifugal pump vibration and acoustic dataset demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves high diagnostic accuracy under noise-free conditions and maintains strong robustness under noisy interference,validating its efficiency,scalability,and practical value for rotating machinery fault diagnosis.

文摘Automated essay scoring(AES)systems have gained significant importance in educational settings,offering a scalable,efficient,and objective method for evaluating student essays.However,developing AES systems for Arabic poses distinct challenges due to the language’s complex morphology,diglossia,and the scarcity of annotated datasets.This paper presents a hybrid approach to Arabic AES by combining text-based,vector-based,and embeddingbased similarity measures to improve essay scoring accuracy while minimizing the training data required.Using a large Arabic essay dataset categorized into thematic groups,the study conducted four experiments to evaluate the impact of feature selection,data size,and model performance.Experiment 1 established a baseline using a non-machine learning approach,selecting top-N correlated features to predict essay scores.The subsequent experiments employed 5-fold cross-validation.Experiment 2 showed that combining embedding-based,text-based,and vector-based features in a Random Forest(RF)model achieved an R2 of 88.92%and an accuracy of 83.3%within a 0.5-point tolerance.Experiment 3 further refined the feature selection process,demonstrating that 19 correlated features yielded optimal results,improving R2 to 88.95%.In Experiment 4,an optimal data efficiency training approach was introduced,where training data portions increased from 5%to 50%.The study found that using just 10%of the data achieved near-peak performance,with an R2 of 85.49%,emphasizing an effective trade-off between performance and computational costs.These findings highlight the potential of the hybrid approach for developing scalable Arabic AES systems,especially in low-resource environments,addressing linguistic challenges while ensuring efficient data usage.

文摘Objective expertise evaluation of individuals,as a prerequisite stage for team formation,has been a long-term desideratum in large software development companies.With the rapid advancements in machine learning methods,based on reliable existing data stored in project management tools’datasets,automating this evaluation process becomes a natural step forward.In this context,our approach focuses on quantifying software developer expertise by using metadata from the task-tracking systems.For this,we mathematically formalize two categories of expertise:technology-specific expertise,which denotes the skills required for a particular technology,and general expertise,which encapsulates overall knowledge in the software industry.Afterward,we automatically classify the zones of expertise associated with each task a developer has worked on using Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers(BERT)-like transformers to handle the unique characteristics of project tool datasets effectively.Finally,our method evaluates the proficiency of each software specialist across already completed projects from both technology-specific and general perspectives.The method was experimentally validated,yielding promising results.
