This recognition involves understanding short-...Accurate recognition of flight deck operations for carrier-based aircraft, based on operation trajectories, is critical for optimizing carrier-based aircraft performance. This recognition involves understanding short-term and long-term spatial collaborative relationships among support agents and positions from long spatial–temporal trajectories. While the existing methods excel at recognizing collaborative behaviors from short trajectories, they often struggle with long spatial–temporal trajectories. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a dynamic graph method to enhance flight deck operation recognition. First, spatial–temporal collaborative relationships are modeled as a dynamic graph. Second, a discretized and compressed method is proposed to assign values to the states of this dynamic graph. To extract features that represent diverse collaborative relationships among agents and account for the duration of these relationships, a biased random walk is then conducted. Subsequently, the Swin Transformer is employed to comprehend spatial–temporal collaborative relationships, and a fully connected layer is applied to deck operation recognition. Finally, to address the scarcity of real datasets, a simulation pipeline is introduced to generate deck operations in virtual flight deck scenarios. Experimental results on the simulation dataset demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.展开更多

文摘To address the challenge of missing modal information in entity alignment and to mitigate information loss or bias arising frommodal heterogeneity during fusion,while also capturing shared information acrossmodalities,this paper proposes a Multi-modal Pre-synergistic Entity Alignmentmodel based on Cross-modalMutual Information Strategy Optimization(MPSEA).The model first employs independent encoders to process multi-modal features,including text,images,and numerical values.Next,a multi-modal pre-synergistic fusion mechanism integrates graph structural and visual modal features into the textual modality as preparatory information.This pre-fusion strategy enables unified perception of heterogeneous modalities at the model’s initial stage,reducing discrepancies during the fusion process.Finally,using cross-modal deep perception reinforcement learning,the model achieves adaptive multilevel feature fusion between modalities,supporting learningmore effective alignment strategies.Extensive experiments on multiple public datasets show that the MPSEA method achieves gains of up to 7% in Hits@1 and 8.2% in MRR on the FBDB15K dataset,and up to 9.1% in Hits@1 and 7.7% in MRR on the FBYG15K dataset,compared to existing state-of-the-art methods.These results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed model.

文摘With the advent of the next-generation Air Traffic Control(ATC)system,there is growing interest in using Artificial Intelligence(AI)techniques to enhance Situation Awareness(SA)for ATC Controllers(ATCOs),i.e.,Intelligent SA(ISA).However,the existing AI-based SA approaches often rely on unimodal data and lack a comprehensive description and benchmark of the ISA tasks utilizing multi-modal data for real-time ATC environments.To address this gap,by analyzing the situation awareness procedure of the ATCOs,the ISA task is refined to the processing of the two primary elements,i.e.,spoken instructions and flight trajectories.Subsequently,the ISA is further formulated into Controlling Intent Understanding(CIU)and Flight Trajectory Prediction(FTP)tasks.For the CIU task,an innovative automatic speech recognition and understanding framework is designed to extract the controlling intent from unstructured and continuous ATC communications.For the FTP task,the single-and multi-horizon FTP approaches are investigated to support the high-precision prediction of the situation evolution.A total of 32 unimodal/multi-modal advanced methods with extensive evaluation metrics are introduced to conduct the benchmarks on the real-world multi-modal ATC situation dataset.Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of AI-based techniques in enhancing ISA for the ATC environment.

文摘The multi-modal characteristics of mineral particles play a pivotal role in enhancing the classification accuracy,which is critical for obtaining a profound understanding of the Earth's composition and ensuring effective exploitation utilization of its resources.However,the existing methods for classifying mineral particles do not fully utilize these multi-modal features,thereby limiting the classification accuracy.Furthermore,when conventional multi-modal image classification methods are applied to planepolarized and cross-polarized sequence images of mineral particles,they encounter issues such as information loss,misaligned features,and challenges in spatiotemporal feature extraction.To address these challenges,we propose a multi-modal mineral particle polarization image classification network(MMGC-Net)for precise mineral particle classification.Initially,MMGC-Net employs a two-dimensional(2D)backbone network with shared parameters to extract features from two types of polarized images to ensure feature alignment.Subsequently,a cross-polarized intra-modal feature fusion module is designed to refine the spatiotemporal features from the extracted features of the cross-polarized sequence images.Ultimately,the inter-modal feature fusion module integrates the two types of modal features to enhance the classification precision.Quantitative and qualitative experimental results indicate that when compared with the current state-of-the-art multi-modal image classification methods,MMGC-Net demonstrates marked superiority in terms of mineral particle multi-modal feature learning and four classification evaluation metrics.It also demonstrates better stability than the existing models.
文摘Acute Bilirubin Encephalopathy(ABE)is a significant threat to neonates and it leads to disability and high mortality rates.Detecting and treating ABE promptly is important to prevent further complications and long-term issues.Recent studies have explored ABE diagnosis.However,they often face limitations in classification due to reliance on a single modality of Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI).To tackle this problem,the authors propose a Tri-M2MT model for precise ABE detection by using tri-modality MRI scans.The scans include T1-weighted imaging(T1WI),T2-weighted imaging(T2WI),and apparent diffusion coefficient maps to get indepth information.Initially,the tri-modality MRI scans are collected and preprocessesed by using an Advanced Gaussian Filter for noise reduction and Z-score normalisation for data standardisation.An Advanced Capsule Network was utilised to extract relevant features by using Snake Optimization Algorithm to select optimal features based on feature correlation with the aim of minimising complexity and enhancing detection accuracy.Furthermore,a multi-transformer approach was used for feature fusion and identify feature correlations effectively.Finally,accurate ABE diagnosis is achieved through the utilisation of a SoftMax layer.The performance of the proposed Tri-M2MT model is evaluated across various metrics,including accuracy,specificity,sensitivity,F1-score,and ROC curve analysis,and the proposed methodology provides better performance compared to existing methodologies.

文摘Accurate recognition of flight deck operations for carrier-based aircraft, based on operation trajectories, is critical for optimizing carrier-based aircraft performance. This recognition involves understanding short-term and long-term spatial collaborative relationships among support agents and positions from long spatial–temporal trajectories. While the existing methods excel at recognizing collaborative behaviors from short trajectories, they often struggle with long spatial–temporal trajectories. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a dynamic graph method to enhance flight deck operation recognition. First, spatial–temporal collaborative relationships are modeled as a dynamic graph. Second, a discretized and compressed method is proposed to assign values to the states of this dynamic graph. To extract features that represent diverse collaborative relationships among agents and account for the duration of these relationships, a biased random walk is then conducted. Subsequently, the Swin Transformer is employed to comprehend spatial–temporal collaborative relationships, and a fully connected layer is applied to deck operation recognition. Finally, to address the scarcity of real datasets, a simulation pipeline is introduced to generate deck operations in virtual flight deck scenarios. Experimental results on the simulation dataset demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.

文摘Our concern is to investigate controlled remote implementation of partially unknown operations with multiple layers.We first propose a scheme to realize the remote implementation of singlequbit operations belonging to the restricted sets.Then,the proposed scheme is extended to the case of single-qudit operations.As long as the controller and the higher-layer senders consent,the receiver can restore the desired state remotely operated by the sender.It is worth mentioning that the recovery operation is deduced by general formulas which clearly reveal the relationship with the measurement outcomes.For the sake of clarity,two specific examples with two levels are given respectively.In addition,we discuss the influence of amplitude-damping noise and utilize weak measurement and measurement reversal to effectively resist noise.

文摘A personalized outfit recommendation has emerged as a hot research topic in the fashion domain.However,existing recommendations do not fully exploit user style preferences.Typically,users prefer particular styles such as casual and athletic styles,and consider attributes like color and texture when selecting outfits.To achieve personalized outfit recommendations in line with user style preferences,this paper proposes a personal style guided outfit recommendation with multi-modal fashion compatibility modeling,termed as PSGNet.Firstly,a style classifier is designed to categorize fashion images of various clothing types and attributes into distinct style categories.Secondly,a personal style prediction module extracts user style preferences by analyzing historical data.Then,to address the limitations of single-modal representations and enhance fashion compatibility,both fashion images and text data are leveraged to extract multi-modal features.Finally,PSGNet integrates these components through Bayesian personalized ranking(BPR)to unify the personal style and fashion compatibility,where the former is used as personal style features and guides the output of the personalized outfit recommendation tailored to the target user.Extensive experiments on large-scale datasets demonstrate that the proposed model is efficient on the personalized outfit recommendation.

文摘The global public HPC(high-power charging)network for EVs(electric vehicles)is rapidly expanding.This growth is crucial for supporting the increasing adoption of EVs but highlights the industry’s early stage.Regional maturity varies,with China leading due to strong government support,followed by Europe and the United States.A significant challenge is the lack of industry standards,causing inconsistencies in charger types and payment systems.Efforts are underway,to ensure interoperability and reliability.Interoperability is crucial for the success of EV HPC infrastructure,ensuring seamless integration among charge points,management systems,and service providers.Despite the use of protocols like the OCPP(Open Charge Point Protocol),variations in implementation create complexities.Ensuring uniform standards across the ecosystem is essential for reliability and efficiency.Vendor-specific error codes,which are more detailed than standardized codes,are vital for diagnosing issues but lack standardization,adding complexity.Addressing these challenges is key to supporting widespread EV adoption and enhancing user experience.To provide a compelling driver value proposition,EV charging services must be reliable and seamless.The operations and maintenance of the HPC network must be cost-effective and leverage the intelligence of the integrated ecosystem.The technical complexity of managing high-power DC charging,combined with diverse authentication and payment systems,results in numerous potential issues.Moving from reactive to predictive maintenance is essential for undisrupted operations and a smooth driver experience.Shell’s Intelligent Operations Technology Strategy incorporates GenAI elements in its advanced analytics and operational performance management tools.By ingesting big data from multiple sources across the EV ecosystem,Shell engineers can perform detailed pattern recognition and targeted troubleshooting.Monitoring,configurable alerting,and remote fixing based on auto-healing and targeted auto-allocation enhance charger availability and reduce downtime.This automation has evolved Shell’s maintenance and operations strategy from reactive to predictive,improving overall charger performance and user satisfaction.Key achievements include transitioning to prescriptive and preventive asset management approaches,significantly improving uptime and charging experience,and increasing commercial value through cost reduction and enhanced revenue.Future challenges include evolving OCPP,integrating data from non-OCPP systems,and ensuring interoperability across diverse systems.Standardization and cross-collaboration within the industry are essential for smooth interoperability,higher uptime,and increased CSR(charging success rate).Technological innovations will further shape the industry,promoting stabilization and efficiency as it matures.
文摘[Objective]Accurate prediction of tomato growth height is crucial for optimizing production environments in smart farming.However,current prediction methods predominantly rely on empirical,mechanistic,or learning-based models that utilize either images data or environmental data.These methods fail to fully leverage multi-modal data to capture the diverse aspects of plant growth comprehensively.[Methods]To address this limitation,a two-stage phenotypic feature extraction(PFE)model based on deep learning algorithm of recurrent neural network(RNN)and long short-term memory(LSTM)was developed.The model integrated environment and plant information to provide a holistic understanding of the growth process,emploied phenotypic and temporal feature extractors to comprehensively capture both types of features,enabled a deeper understanding of the interaction between tomato plants and their environment,ultimately leading to highly accurate predictions of growth height.[Results and Discussions]The experimental results showed the model's ef‐fectiveness:When predicting the next two days based on the past five days,the PFE-based RNN and LSTM models achieved mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of 0.81%and 0.40%,respectively,which were significantly lower than the 8.00%MAPE of the large language model(LLM)and 6.72%MAPE of the Transformer-based model.In longer-term predictions,the 10-day prediction for 4 days ahead and the 30-day prediction for 12 days ahead,the PFE-RNN model continued to outperform the other two baseline models,with MAPE of 2.66%and 14.05%,respectively.[Conclusions]The proposed method,which leverages phenotypic-temporal collaboration,shows great potential for intelligent,data-driven management of tomato cultivation,making it a promising approach for enhancing the efficiency and precision of smart tomato planting management.

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.
