Accurate state-of-health(SOH) estimation is critical for ensuring battery operational performance. Despite numerous data-driven methods reported in existing research for battery SOH estimation, these methods often exhibit inconsistent performance across different application scenarios. To address this issue and overcome the performance limitations of individual data-driven models,integrating multiple models for SOH estimation has received considerable attention. Ensemble learning(EL) typically leverages the strengths of multiple base models to achieve more robust and accurate outputs. However, the lack of a clear review of current research hinders the further development of ensemble methods in SOH estimation. Therefore, this paper comprehensively reviews multi-model ensemble learning methods for battery SOH estimation. First, existing ensemble methods are systematically categorized into 6 classes based on their combination strategies. Different realizations and underlying connections are meticulously analyzed for each category of EL methods, highlighting distinctions, innovations, and typical applications. Subsequently, these ensemble methods are comprehensively compared in terms of base models, combination strategies, and publication trends. Evaluations across 6 dimensions underscore the outstanding performance of stacking-based ensemble methods. Following this, these ensemble methods are further inspected from the perspectives of weighted ensemble and diversity, aiming to inspire potential approaches for enhancing ensemble performance. Moreover, addressing challenges such as base model selection, measuring model robustness and uncertainty, and interpretability of ensemble models in practical applications is emphasized. Finally, future research prospects are outlined, specifically noting that deep learning ensemble is poised to advance ensemble methods for battery SOH estimation. The convergence of advanced machine learning with ensemble learning is anticipated to yield valuable avenues for research. Accelerated research in ensemble learning holds promising prospects for achieving more accurate and reliable battery SOH estimation under real-world conditions.展开更多

However, this ...The biomass and coal co-pyrolysis (BCP) technology combines the advantages of both resources, achieving efficient resource complementarity, reducing reliance on coal, and minimizing pollutant emissions. However, this process still encounters numerous challenges in attaining optimal economic and environmental performance. Therefore, an ensemble learning (EL) framework is proposed for the BCP process in this study to optimize the synergistic benefits while minimizing negative environmental impacts. Six different ensemble learning models are developed to investigate the impact of input features, such as biomass characteristics, coal characteristics, and pyrolysis conditions on the product profit and CO_(2) emissions of the BCP processes. The Optuna method is further employed to automatically optimize the hyperparameters of BCP process models for enhancing their predictive accuracy and robustness. The results indicate that the categorical boosting (CAB) model of the BCP process has demonstrated exceptional performance in accurately predicting its product profit and CO_(2) emission (R2>0.92) after undergoing five-fold cross-validation. To enhance the interpretability of this preferred model, the Shapley additive explanations and partial dependence plot analyses are conducted to evaluate the impact and importance of biomass characteristics, coal characteristics, and pyrolysis conditions on the product profitability and CO_(2) emissions of the BCP processes. Finally, the preferred model coupled with a reference vector guided evolutionary algorithm is carried to identify the optimal conditions for maximizing the product profit of BCP process products while minimizing CO_(2) emissions. It indicates the optimal BCP process can achieve high product profits (5290.85 CNY·t−1) and low CO_(2) emissions (7.45 kg·t^(−1)).展开更多

These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.展开更多

文摘Non-technical losses(NTL)of electric power are a serious problem for electric distribution companies.The solution determines the cost,stability,reliability,and quality of the supplied electricity.The widespread use of advanced metering infrastructure(AMI)and Smart Grid allows all participants in the distribution grid to store and track electricity consumption.During the research,a machine learning model is developed that allows analyzing and predicting the probability of NTL for each consumer of the distribution grid based on daily electricity consumption readings.This model is an ensemble meta-algorithm(stacking)that generalizes the algorithms of random forest,LightGBM,and a homogeneous ensemble of artificial neural networks.The best accuracy of the proposed meta-algorithm in comparison to basic classifiers is experimentally confirmed on the test sample.Such a model,due to good accuracy indicators(ROC-AUC-0.88),can be used as a methodological basis for a decision support system,the purpose of which is to form a sample of suspected NTL sources.The use of such a sample will allow the top management of electric distribution companies to increase the efficiency of raids by performers,making them targeted and accurate,which should contribute to the fight against NTL and the sustainable development of the electric power industry.

文摘Heart disease prediction is a critical issue in healthcare,where accurate early diagnosis can save lives and reduce healthcare costs.The problem is inherently complex due to the high dimensionality of medical data,irrelevant or redundant features,and the variability in risk factors such as age,lifestyle,andmedical history.These challenges often lead to inefficient and less accuratemodels.Traditional predictionmethodologies face limitations in effectively handling large feature sets and optimizing classification performance,which can result in overfitting poor generalization,and high computational cost.This work proposes a novel classification model for heart disease prediction that addresses these challenges by integrating feature selection through a Genetic Algorithm(GA)with an ensemble deep learning approach optimized using the Tunicate Swarm Algorithm(TSA).GA selects the most relevant features,reducing dimensionality and improvingmodel efficiency.Theselected features are then used to train an ensemble of deep learning models,where the TSA optimizes the weight of each model in the ensemble to enhance prediction accuracy.This hybrid approach addresses key challenges in the field,such as high dimensionality,redundant features,and classification performance,by introducing an efficient feature selection mechanism and optimizing the weighting of deep learning models in the ensemble.These enhancements result in a model that achieves superior accuracy,generalization,and efficiency compared to traditional methods.The proposed model demonstrated notable advancements in both prediction accuracy and computational efficiency over traditionalmodels.Specifically,it achieved an accuracy of 97.5%,a sensitivity of 97.2%,and a specificity of 97.8%.Additionally,with a 60-40 data split and 5-fold cross-validation,the model showed a significant reduction in training time(90 s),memory consumption(950 MB),and CPU usage(80%),highlighting its effectiveness in processing large,complex medical datasets for heart disease prediction.

文摘Deep learning algorithms have been rapidly incorporated into many different applications due to the increase in computational power and the availability of massive amounts of data.Recently,both deep learning and ensemble learning have been used to recognize underlying structures and patterns from high-level features to make predictions/decisions.With the growth in popularity of deep learning and ensemble learning algorithms,they have received significant attention from both scientists and the industrial community due to their superior ability to learn features from big data.Ensemble deep learning has exhibited significant performance in enhancing learning generalization through the use of multiple deep learning algorithms.Although ensemble deep learning has large quantities of training parameters,which results in time and space overheads,it performs much better than traditional ensemble learning.Ensemble deep learning has been successfully used in several areas,such as bioinformatics,finance,and health care.In this paper,we review and investigate recent ensemble deep learning algorithms and techniques in health care domains,medical imaging,health care data analytics,genomics,diagnosis,disease prevention,and drug discovery.We cover several widely used deep learning algorithms along with their architectures,including deep neural networks(DNNs),convolutional neural networks(CNNs),recurrent neural networks(RNNs),and generative adversarial networks(GANs).Common healthcare tasks,such as medical imaging,electronic health records,and genomics,are also demonstrated.Furthermore,in this review,the challenges inherent in reducing the burden on the healthcare system are discussed and explored.Finally,future directions and opportunities for enhancing healthcare model performance are discussed.

文摘Pangu-Weather(PGW),trained with deep learning–based methods(DL-based model),shows significant potential for global medium-range weather forecasting.However,the interpretability and trustworthiness of global medium-range DLbased models raise many concerns.This study uses the singular vector(SV)initial condition(IC)perturbations of the China Meteorological Administration's Global Ensemble Prediction System(CMA-GEPS)as inputs of PGW for global ensemble prediction(PGW-GEPS)to investigate the ensemble forecast sensitivity of DL-based models to the IC errors.Meanwhile,the CMA-GEPS forecasts serve as benchmarks for comparison and verification.The spatial structures and prediction performance of PGW-GEPS are discussed and compared to CMA-GEPS based on seasonal ensemble experiments.The results show that the ensemble mean and dispersion of PGW-GEPS are similar to those of CMA-GEPS in the medium range but with smoother forecasts.Meanwhile,PGW-GEPS is sensitive to the SV IC perturbations.Specifically,PGWGEPS can generate realistic ensemble spread beyond the sub-synoptic scale(wavenumbers≤64)with SV IC perturbations.However,PGW's kinetic energy is significantly reduced at the sub-synoptic scale,leading to error growth behavior inconsistent with CMA-GEPS at that scale.Thus,this behavior indicates that the effective resolution of PGW-GEPS is beyond the sub-synoptic scale and is limited to predicting mesoscale atmospheric motions.In terms of the global mediumrange ensemble prediction performance,the probability prediction skill of PGW-GEPS is comparable to CMA-GEPS in the extratropic when they use the same IC perturbations.That means that PGW has a general ability to provide skillful global medium-range forecasts with different ICs from numerical weather prediction.

文摘The biomass and coal co-pyrolysis (BCP) technology combines the advantages of both resources, achieving efficient resource complementarity, reducing reliance on coal, and minimizing pollutant emissions. However, this process still encounters numerous challenges in attaining optimal economic and environmental performance. Therefore, an ensemble learning (EL) framework is proposed for the BCP process in this study to optimize the synergistic benefits while minimizing negative environmental impacts. Six different ensemble learning models are developed to investigate the impact of input features, such as biomass characteristics, coal characteristics, and pyrolysis conditions on the product profit and CO_(2) emissions of the BCP processes. The Optuna method is further employed to automatically optimize the hyperparameters of BCP process models for enhancing their predictive accuracy and robustness. The results indicate that the categorical boosting (CAB) model of the BCP process has demonstrated exceptional performance in accurately predicting its product profit and CO_(2) emission (R2>0.92) after undergoing five-fold cross-validation. To enhance the interpretability of this preferred model, the Shapley additive explanations and partial dependence plot analyses are conducted to evaluate the impact and importance of biomass characteristics, coal characteristics, and pyrolysis conditions on the product profitability and CO_(2) emissions of the BCP processes. Finally, the preferred model coupled with a reference vector guided evolutionary algorithm is carried to identify the optimal conditions for maximizing the product profit of BCP process products while minimizing CO_(2) emissions. It indicates the optimal BCP process can achieve high product profits (5290.85 CNY·t−1) and low CO_(2) emissions (7.45 kg·t^(−1)).

文摘Glaucoma,a chronic eye disease affecting millions worldwide,poses a substantial threat to eyesight and can result in permanent vision loss if left untreated.Manual identification of glaucoma is a complicated and time-consuming practice requiring specialized expertise and results may be subjective.To address these challenges,this research proposes a computer-aided diagnosis(CAD)approach using Artificial Intelligence(AI)techniques for binary and multiclass classification of glaucoma stages.An ensemble fusion mechanism that combines the outputs of three pre-trained convolutional neural network(ConvNet)models–ResNet-50,VGG-16,and InceptionV3 is utilized in this paper.This fusion technique enhances diagnostic accuracy and robustness by ensemble-averaging the predictions from individual models,leveraging their complementary strengths.The objective of this work is to assess the model’s capability for early-stage glaucoma diagnosis.Classification is performed on a dataset collected from the Harvard Dataverse repository.With the proposed technique,for Normal vs.Advanced glaucoma classification,a validation accuracy of 98.04%and testing accuracy of 98.03%is achieved,with a specificity of 100%which outperforms stateof-the-art methods.For multiclass classification,the suggested ensemble approach achieved a precision and sensitivity of 97%,specificity,and testing accuracy of 98.57%and 96.82%,respectively.The proposed E-GlauNet model has significant potential in assisting ophthalmologists in the screening and fast diagnosis of glaucoma,leading to more reliable,efficient,and timely diagnosis,particularly for early-stage detection and staging of the disease.While the proposed method demonstrates high accuracy and robustness,the study is limited by the evaluation of a single dataset.Future work will focus on external validation across diverse datasets and enhancing interpretability using explainable AI techniques.

文摘Healthcare networks prove to be an urgent issue in terms of intrusion detection due to the critical consequences of cyber threats and the extreme sensitivity of medical information.The proposed Auto-Stack ID in the study is a stacked ensemble of encoder-enhanced auctions that can be used to improve intrusion detection in healthcare networks.TheWUSTL-EHMS 2020 dataset trains and evaluates themodel,constituting an imbalanced class distribution(87.46% normal traffic and 12.53% intrusion attacks).To address this imbalance,the study balances the effect of training Bias through Stratified K-fold cross-validation(K=5),so that each class is represented similarly on training and validation splits.Second,the Auto-Stack ID method combines many base classifiers such as TabNet,LightGBM,Gaussian Naive Bayes,Histogram-Based Gradient Boosting(HGB),and Logistic Regression.We apply a two-stage training process based on the first stage,where we have base classifiers that predict out-of-fold(OOF)predictions,which we use as inputs for the second-stage meta-learner XGBoost.The meta-learner learns to refine predictions to capture complicated interactions between base models,thus improving detection accuracy without introducing bias,overfitting,or requiring domain knowledge of the meta-data.In addition,the auto-stack ID model got 98.41% accuracy and 93.45%F1 score,better than individual classifiers.It can identify intrusions due to its 90.55% recall and 96.53% precision with minimal false positives.These findings identify its suitability in ensuring healthcare networks’security through ensemble learning.Ongoing efforts will be deployed in real time to improve response to evolving threats.
文摘Breast cancer is among the leading causes of cancer mortality globally,and its diagnosis through histopathological image analysis is often prone to inter-observer variability and misclassification.Existing machine learning(ML)methods struggle with intra-class heterogeneity and inter-class similarity,necessitating more robust classification models.This study presents an ML classifier ensemble hybrid model for deep feature extraction with deep learning(DL)and Bat Swarm Optimization(BSO)hyperparameter optimization to improve breast cancer histopathology(BCH)image classification.A dataset of 804 Hematoxylin and Eosin(H&E)stained images classified as Benign,in situ,Invasive,and Normal categories(ICIAR2018_BACH_Challenge)has been utilized.ResNet50 was utilized for feature extraction,while Support Vector Machines(SVM),Random Forests(RF),XGBoosts(XGB),Decision Trees(DT),and AdaBoosts(ADB)were utilized for classification.BSO was utilized for hyperparameter optimization in a soft voting ensemble approach.Accuracy,precision,recall,specificity,F1-score,Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC),and Precision-Recall(PR)were utilized for model performance metrics.The model using an ensemble outperformed individual classifiers in terms of having greater accuracy(~90.0%),precision(~86.4%),recall(~86.3%),and specificity(~96.6%).The robustness of the model was verified by both ROC and PR curves,which showed AUC values of 1.00,0.99,and 0.98 for Benign,Invasive,and in situ instances,respectively.This ensemble model delivers a strong and clinically valid methodology for breast cancer classification that enhances precision and minimizes diagnostic errors.Future work should focus on explainable AI,multi-modal fusion,few-shot learning,and edge computing for real-world deployment.

文摘The potential applications of multimodal physiological signals in healthcare,pain monitoring,and clinical decision support systems have garnered significant attention in biomedical research.Subjective self-reporting is the foundation of conventional pain assessment methods,which may be unreliable.Deep learning is a promising alternative to resolve this limitation through automated pain classification.This paper proposes an ensemble deep-learning framework for pain assessment.The framework makes use of features collected from electromyography(EMG),skin conductance level(SCL),and electrocardiography(ECG)signals.We integrate Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN),Long Short-Term Memory Networks(LSTM),Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Units(BiGRU),and Deep Neural Networks(DNN)models.We then aggregate their predictions using a weighted averaging ensemble technique to increase the classification’s robustness.To improve computing efficiency and remove redundant features,we use Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)for feature selection.This enables us to reduce the features’dimensionality without sacrificing the classification’s accuracy.With improved accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score across all pain levels,the experimental results show that the suggested ensemble model performs better than individual deep learning classifiers.In our experiments,the suggested model achieved over 98%accuracy,suggesting promising automated pain assessment performance.However,due to differences in validation protocols,comparisons with previous studies are still limited.Combining deep learning and feature selection techniques significantly improves model generalization,reducing overfitting and enhancing classification performance.The evaluation was conducted using the BioVid Heat Pain Dataset,confirming the model’s effectiveness in distinguishing between different pain intensity levels.

文摘Accurately evaluating the safety status of lithium-ion battery systems in electric vehicles is imperative due to the challenges in effectively predicting potential battery failure risks under stochastic profiles.Complex battery fault mechanisms and limited poor-quality data collection impede fault detection for battery systems under real-world conditions.This paper proposes a novel graph-guided fault detection method designed to recognize concealed anomalies in realistic data.Graphs guided by physical relationships are constructed for learning the dynamic evolution of physical quantities under normal conditions and their potential change characteristics in fault scenarios.An ensemble Graph Sample and Aggregate Network model are developed to tackle sample distribution imbalances and non-uniformity battery system specifications across vehicles.Failure risk probabilities for diverse battery charging and discharging segments are derived.An ablation study verifies the necessity of ensemble learning in addressing imbalanced datasets.Analysis of 102,095 segments across 86 vehicles with different battery material systems,battery capacities,and numbers of cells and temperature sensors confirms the robustness and generalization of the proposed method,yielding a recall of 98.37%.By introducing the graph,spatio-temporal global fault characteristics of battery systems are automatically extracted.The coupling relationship and evolution of physical quantities under both normal and faulty states are established,effectively uncovering fault information hidden in collected battery data without observable anomalies.The safety state of battery systems is reflected in terms of failure risk probability,providing reliable data support for battery system maintenance.
文摘Cloud computing(CC) provides infrastructure,storage services,and applications to the users that should be secured by some procedures or policies.Security in the cloud environment becomes essential to safeguard infrastructure and user information from unauthorized access by implementing timely intrusion detection systems(IDS).Ensemble learning harnesses the collective power of multiple machine learning(ML) methods with feature selection(FS)process aids to progress the sturdiness and overall precision of intrusion detection.Therefore,this article presents a meta-heuristic feature selection by ensemble learning-based anomaly detection(MFS-ELAD)algorithm for the CC platforms.To realize this objective,the proposed approach utilizes a min-max standardization technique.Then,higher dimensionality features are decreased by Prairie Dogs Optimizer(PDO) algorithm.For the recognition procedure,the MFS-ELAD method emulates a group of 3 DL techniques such as sparse auto-encoder(SAE),stacked long short-term memory(SLSTM),and Elman neural network(ENN) algorithms.Eventually,the parameter fine-tuning of the DL algorithms occurs utilizing the sand cat swarm optimizer(SCSO) approach that helps in improving the recognition outcomes.The simulation examination of MFS-ELAD system on the CSE-CIC-IDS2018 dataset exhibits its promising performance across another method using a maximal precision of 99.71%.
文摘Small-drone technology has opened a range of new applications for aerial transportation. These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.
