文摘Aircraft assembly is characterized by stringent precedence constraints,limited resource availability,spatial restrictions,and a high degree of manual intervention.These factors lead to considerable variability in operator workloads and significantly increase the complexity of scheduling.To address this challenge,this study investigates the Aircraft Pulsating Assembly Line Scheduling Problem(APALSP)under skilled operator allocation,with the objective of minimizing assembly completion time.A mathematical model considering skilled operator allocation is developed,and a Q-Learning improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm(QLPSO)is proposed.In the algorithm design,a reverse scheduling strategy is adopted to effectively manage large-scale precedence constraints.Moreover,a reverse sequence encoding method is introduced to generate operation sequences,while a time decoding mechanism is employed to determine completion times.The problem is further reformulated as a Markov Decision Process(MDP)with explicitly defined state and action spaces.Within QLPSO,the Q-learning mechanism adaptively adjusts inertia weights and learning factors,thereby achieving a balance between exploration capability and convergence performance.To validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach,extensive computational experiments are conducted on benchmark instances of different scales,including small,medium,large,and ultra-large cases.The results demonstrate that QLPSO consistently delivers stable and high-quality solutions across all scenarios.In ultra-large-scale instances,it improves the best solution by 25.2%compared with the Genetic Algorithm(GA)and enhances the average solution by 16.9%over the Q-learning algorithm,showing clear advantages over the comparative methods.These findings not only confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm but also provide valuable theoretical references and practical guidance for the intelligent scheduling optimization of aircraft pulsating assembly lines.

文摘Artificial Intelligence(AI)is changing healthcare by helping with diagnosis.However,for doctors to trust AI tools,they need to be both accurate and easy to understand.In this study,we created a new machine learning system for the early detection of Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD)in children.Our main goal was to build a model that is not only good at predicting ASD but also clear in its reasoning.For this,we combined several different models,including Random Forest,XGBoost,and Neural Networks,into a single,more powerful framework.We used two different types of datasets:(i)a standard behavioral dataset and(ii)a more complex multimodal dataset with images,audio,and physiological information.The datasets were carefully preprocessed for missing values,redundant features,and dataset imbalance to ensure fair learning.The results outperformed the state-of-the-art with a Regularized Neural Network,achieving 97.6%accuracy on behavioral data.Whereas,on the multimodal data,the accuracy is 98.2%.Other models also did well with accuracies consistently above 96%.We also used SHAP and LIME on a behavioral dataset for models’explainability.

文摘This study examines how foreign language education in the artificial intelligence(AI)era could assist the cultivation of national consciousness through a technology-enhanced pedagogy of film appreciation.Using The Wild Robot as a case study,we argue that cinematic narratives serve as cultural mirrors,offering immersive,reflective,and affective sites for intercultural learning.We propose a three-layered pedagogical framework-progressing from semiotic decoding,through narrative and value comparison,to creative identity construction-that integrates intelligent tools to develop both communicative competence and an agentive sense of belonging.The approach exemplifies a humanistic turn in language teaching,aiming to form“rooted global communicators”who can engage in cross-civilization dialogue with cultural confidence and critical awareness.

文摘Lithology identificationwhile drilling technology can obtain rock information in real-time.However,traditional lithology identificationmodels often face limitations in feature extraction and adaptability to complex geological conditions,limiting their accuracy in challenging environments.To address these challenges,a deep learning model for lithology identificationwhile drilling is proposed.The proposed model introduces a dual attention mechanism in the long short-term memory(LSTM)network,effectively enhancing the ability to capture spatial and channel dimension information.Subsequently,the crayfishoptimization algorithm(COA)is applied to optimize the model network structure,thereby enhancing its lithology identificationcapability.Laboratory test results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves 97.15%accuracy on the testing set,significantlyoutperforming the traditional support vector machine(SVM)method(81.77%).Field tests under actual drilling conditions demonstrate an average accuracy of 91.96%for the proposed model,representing a 14.31%improvement over the LSTM model alone.The proposed model demonstrates robust adaptability and generalization ability across diverse operational scenarios.This research offers reliable technical support for lithology identification while drilling.
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.

文摘With an increase in internet-connected devices and a dependency on online services,the threat of Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks has become a significant concern in cybersecurity.The proposed system follows a multi-step process,beginning with the collection of datasets from different edge devices and network nodes.To verify its effectiveness,experiments were conducted using the CICDoS2017,NSL-KDD,and CICIDS benchmark datasets alongside other existing models.Recursive feature elimination(RFE)with random forest is used to select features from the CICDDoS2019 dataset,on which a BiLSTM model is trained on local nodes.Local models are trained until convergence or stability criteria are met while simultaneously sharing the updates globally for collaborative learning.A centralised server evaluates real-time traffic using the global BiLSTM model,which triggers alerts for potential DDoS attacks.Furthermore,blockchain technology is employed to secure model updates and to provide an immutable audit trail,thereby ensuring trust and accountability among network nodes.This research introduces a novel decentralized method called Federated Random Forest Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(FRF-BiLSTM)for detecting DDoS attacks,utilizing the advanced Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Networks(BiLSTMs)to analyze sequences in both forward and backward directions.The outcome shows the proposed model achieves a mean accuracy of 97.1%with an average training delay of 88.7 s and testing delay of 21.4 s.The model demonstrates scalability and the best detection performance in large-scale attack scenarios.

文摘Landslide susceptibility mapping(LSM)is an essential tool for mitigating the escalating global risk of landslides.However,challenges such as the heterogeneity of different landslide triggers,extensive engineering activities exacerbated reactivation,and the interpretability of data-driven models have hindered the practical application of LSM.This work proposes a novel framework for enhancing LSM considering different triggers for accumulation and rock landslides,leveraging interpretable machine learning and Multi-temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar(MT-InSAR)technology.Initially,a refined fieldinvestigation was conducted to delineate the accumulation and rock area according to landslide types,leading to the identificationof relevant contributing factors.Deformation along the slope was then combined with time-series analysis to derive a landslide activity level(AL)index to recognize the likelihood of reactivation or dormancy.The SHapley Additive exPlanation(SHAP)technique facilitated the interpretation of factors and the identificationof determinants in high susceptibility areas.The results indicate that random forest(RF)outperformed other models in both accumulation and rock areas.Key factors including thickness and weak intercalation were identifiedfor accumulation and rock landslides.The introduction of AL substantially enhanced the predictive capability of the LSM and outperformed models that neglect movement trends or deformation rates with an average ratio of 81.23%in high susceptibility zones.Besides,the fieldvalidation confirmedthat 83.8%of newly identifiedlandslides were correctly upgraded.Given its efficiencyand operational simplicity,the proposed hybrid model opens new avenues for the feasibility of enhancement in LSM at urban settlements worldwide.

文摘This study developed a modeling methodology for statistical optimization-based geologic hazard susceptibility assessment,aiming to enhance the comprehensive performance and classification accuracy of the assessment models.First,the cumulative probability method revealed that a low probability(15%)of geologic hazards between any two geologic hazard points occurred outside a buffer zone with a radius of 2297 m(i.e.,the distance threshold).The training dataset was established,consisting of negative samples(non-hazard points)randomly generated based on the distance threshold,positive samples(i.e.,historical hazards),and 13 conditioning factors.Then,models were built using five machine learning algorithms,namely random forest(RF),gradient boosting decision tree(GBDT),naive Bayes(NB),logistic regression(LR),and support vector machine(SVM).The comprehensive performance of the models was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)and overall accuracy(OA)as indicators,revealing that RF exhibited the best performance,with OA and AUC values of 2.7127 and 0.981,respectively.Furthermore,the machine learning models constructed by considering the distance threshold outperformed those built using the unoptimized dataset.The characteristic factors were ranked using the mutual information method,with their scores decreasing in the order of rainfall(0.1616),altitude(0.06),normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI;0.04),and distance from roads(0.03).Finally,the geologic hazard susceptibility classification was assessed using the natural breaks method combined with a clustering algorithm.The results indicate that the clustering algorithm exhibited higher classification accuracy than the natural breaks method.The findings of this study demonstrate that the proposed model optimization scheme can provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of geologic hazards.

文摘With the efficient and intelligent development of computer-based big data processing,applying machine learning methods to the processing and interpretation of logging data in the field of geophysical well logging has broad potential for improving production efficiency.Currently,the Jiyuan Oilfield in the Ordos Basin relies mainly on manual reprocessing and interpretation of old well logging data to identify different fluid types in low-contrast reservoirs,guiding subsequent production work.This study uses well logging data from the Chang 1 reservoir,partitioning the dataset based on individual wells for model training and testing.A deep learning model for intelligent reservoir fluid identification was constructed by incorporating the focal loss function.Comparative validations with five other models,including logistic regression(LR),naive Bayes(NB),gradient boosting decision trees(GBDT),random forest(RF),and support vector machine(SVM),show that this model demonstrates superior identification performance and significantly improves the accuracy of identifying oil-bearing fluids.Mutual information analysis reveals the model's differential dependency on various logging parameters for reservoir fluid identification.This model provides important references and a basis for conducting regional studies and revisiting old wells,demonstrating practical value that can be widely applied.
