文摘Accurate multi-energy load forecasting is a prerequisite for on-demand energy supply in integrated energy systems.However,due to differences in response characteristics and load patterns among electrical,heating,and cooling loads,multi-energy load forecasting faces the challenges of heterogeneous time scales and imbalanced forecasting accuracy across load types.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a multi-task learning model with stacked cross-attention.This model incorporates a time scale alignment module to align the time scales of different loads,and employs Informer encoders as experts to extract load-specific features.Stacked cross-attention as the soft sharing mechanism dynamically fuses expert features at the sequence level,enhancing inter-task collaboration and adaptability.This design improves the overall accuracy of multi-energy load fore-casting with mixed time scales while reducing forecasting imbalance across load types.Comparison results demonstrate that the model with the stacked cross-attention achieves the best forecasting performance and lowers the imbalance index by 79.17%.Furthermore,the experts based on Informer encoders yield over a 30.09%MAPE reduction compared to alternative expert architectures.Compared to the multi-gate mixture-of-experts based models,classical forecasting models,and recent advanced models,the proposed model achieves superior forecasting accuracy,validating its effectiveness and advancement.

文摘Satellite communication technology has emerged as a key solution to address the challenges of data transmission in remote areas.By overcoming the limitations of traditional terrestrial communication networks,it enables long-distance data transmission anytime and anywhere,ensuring the timely and accurate delivery of water level data,which is particularly crucial for fishway water level monitoring.To enhance the effectiveness of fishway water level monitoring,this study proposes a multi-task learning model,AS-SOMTF,designed for real-time and comprehensive prediction.The model integrates auxiliary sequences with primary input sequences to capture complex relationships and dependencies,thereby improving representational capacity.In addition,a novel timeseries embedding algorithm,AS-SOM,is introduced,which combines generative inference and pooling operations to optimize prediction efficiency for long sequences.This innovation not only ensures the timely transmission of water level data but also enhances the accuracy of real-time monitoring.Compared with traditional models such as Transformer and Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)networks,the proposed model achieves improvements of 3.8%and 1.4%in prediction accuracy,respectively.These advancements provide more precise technical support for water level forecasting and resource management in the Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of the Lancang River,contributing to ecosystem protection and improved operational safety.
文摘Deep neural networks(DNNs)are effective in solving both forward and inverse problems for nonlinear partial differential equations(PDEs).However,conventional DNNs are not effective in handling problems such as delay differential equations(DDEs)and delay integrodifferential equations(DIDEs)with constant delays,primarily due to their low regularity at delayinduced breaking points.In this paper,a DNN method that combines multi-task learning(MTL)which is proposed to solve both the forward and inverse problems of DIDEs.The core idea of this approach is to divide the original equation into multiple tasks based on the delay,using auxiliary outputs to represent the integral terms,followed by the use of MTL to seamlessly incorporate the properties at the breaking points into the loss function.Furthermore,given the increased training dificulty associated with multiple tasks and outputs,we employ a sequential training scheme to reduce training complexity and provide reference solutions for subsequent tasks.This approach significantly enhances the approximation accuracy of solving DIDEs with DNNs,as demonstrated by comparisons with traditional DNN methods.We validate the effectiveness of this method through several numerical experiments,test various parameter sharing structures in MTL and compare the testing results of these structures.Finally,this method is implemented to solve the inverse problem of nonlinear DIDE and the results show that the unknown parameters of DIDE can be discovered with sparse or noisy data.

文摘Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning(MARL)is a key technology for enabling cooperation in complex multi-agent systems.It has achieved remarkable progress in areas such as gaming,autonomous driving,and multi-robot control.Empowering cooperative MARL with multi-task decision-making capabilities is expected to further broaden its application scope.In multi-task scenarios,cooperative MARL algorithms need to address 3 types of multi-task problems:reward-related multi-task,arising from different reward functions;multi-domain multi-task,caused by differences in state and action spaces,state transition functions;and scalability-related multi-task,resulting from the dynamic variation in the number of agents.Most existing studies focus on scalability-related multitask problems.However,with the increasing integration between large language models(LLMs)and multi-agent systems,a growing number of LLM-based multi-agent systems have emerged,enabling more complex multi-task cooperation.This paper provides a comprehensive review of the latest advances in this field.By combining multi-task reinforcement learning with cooperative MARL,we categorize and analyze the 3 major types of multi-task problems under multi-agent settings,offering more fine-grained classifications and summarizing key insights for each.In addition,we summarize commonly used benchmarks and discuss future directions of research in this area,which hold promise for further enhancing the multi-task cooperation capabilities of multi-agent systems and expanding their practical applications in the real world.

文摘As batteries become increasingly essential for energy storage technologies,battery prognosis,and diagnosis remain central to ensure reliable operation and effective management,as well as to aid the in-depth investigation of degradation mechanisms.However,dynamic operating conditions,cell-to-cell inconsistencies,and limited availability of labeled data have posed significant challenges to accurate and robust prognosis and diagnosis.Herein,we introduce a time-series-decomposition-based ensembled lightweight learning model(TELL-Me),which employs a synergistic dual-module framework to facilitate accurate and reliable forecasting.The feature module formulates features with physical implications and sheds light on battery aging mechanisms,while the gradient module monitors capacity degradation rates and captures aging trend.TELL-Me achieves high accuracy in end-of-life prediction using minimal historical data from a single battery without requiring offline training dataset,and demonstrates impressive generality and robustness across various operating conditions and battery types.Additionally,by correlating feature contributions with degradation mechanisms across different datasets,TELL-Me is endowed with the diagnostic ability that not only enhances prediction reliability but also provides critical insights into the design and optimization of next-generation batteries.

文摘Sporadic E(Es)layers in the ionosphere are characterized by intense plasma irregularities in the E region at altitudes of 90-130 km.Because they can significantly influence radio communications and navigation systems,accurate forecasting of Es layers is crucial for ensuring the precision and dependability of navigation satellite systems.In this study,we present Es predictions made by an empirical model and by a deep learning model,and analyze their differences comprehensively by comparing the model predictions to satellite RO measurements and ground-based ionosonde observations.The deep learning model exhibited significantly better performance,as indicated by its high coefficient of correlation(r=0.87)with RO observations and predictions,than did the empirical model(r=0.53).This study highlights the importance of integrating artificial intelligence technology into ionosphere modelling generally,and into predicting Es layer occurrences and characteristics,in particular.

文摘BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease(IHD)impacts the quality of life and has the highest mortality rate of cardiovascular diseases globally.AIM To compare variations in the parameters of the single-lead electrocardiogram(ECG)during resting conditions and physical exertion in individuals diagnosed with IHD and those without the condition using vasodilator-induced stress computed tomography(CT)myocardial perfusion imaging as the diagnostic reference standard.METHODS This single center observational study included 80 participants.The participants were aged≥40 years and given an informed written consent to participate in the study.Both groups,G1(n=31)with and G2(n=49)without post stress induced myocardial perfusion defect,passed cardiologist consultation,anthropometric measurements,blood pressure and pulse rate measurement,echocardiography,cardio-ankle vascular index,bicycle ergometry,recording 3-min single-lead ECG(Cardio-Qvark)before and just after bicycle ergometry followed by performing CT myocardial perfusion.The LASSO regression with nested cross-validation was used to find the association between Cardio-Qvark parameters and the existence of the perfusion defect.Statistical processing was performed with the R programming language v4.2,Python v.3.10[^R],and Statistica 12 program.RESULTS Bicycle ergometry yielded an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 50.7%[95%confidence interval(CI):0.388-0.625],specificity of 53.1%(95%CI:0.392-0.673),and sensitivity of 48.4%(95%CI:0.306-0.657).In contrast,the Cardio-Qvark test performed notably better with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 67%(95%CI:0.530-0.801),specificity of 75.5%(95%CI:0.628-0.88),and sensitivity of 51.6%(95%CI:0.333-0.695).CONCLUSION The single-lead ECG has a relatively higher diagnostic accuracy compared with bicycle ergometry by using machine learning models,but the difference was not statistically significant.However,further investigations are required to uncover the hidden capabilities of single-lead ECG in IHD diagnosis.

文摘The high porosity and tunable chemical functionality of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)make it a promising catalyst design platform.High-throughput screening of catalytic performance is feasible since the large MOF structure database is available.In this study,we report a machine learning model for high-throughput screening of MOF catalysts for the CO_(2) cycloaddition reaction.The descriptors for model training were judiciously chosen according to the reaction mechanism,which leads to high accuracy up to 97%for the 75%quantile of the training set as the classification criterion.The feature contribution was further evaluated with SHAP and PDP analysis to provide a certain physical understanding.12,415 hypothetical MOF structures and 100 reported MOFs were evaluated under 100℃ and 1 bar within one day using the model,and 239 potentially efficient catalysts were discovered.Among them,MOF-76(Y)achieved the top performance experimentally among reported MOFs,in good agreement with the prediction.

文摘This work proposes the application of an iterative learning model predictive control(ILMPC)approach based on an adaptive fault observer(FOBILMPC)for fault-tolerant control and trajectory tracking in air-breathing hypersonic vehicles.In order to increase the control amount,this online control legislation makes use of model predictive control(MPC)that is based on the concept of iterative learning control(ILC).By using offline data to decrease the linearized model’s faults,the strategy may effectively increase the robustness of the control system and guarantee that disturbances can be suppressed.An adaptive fault observer is created based on the suggested ILMPC approach in order to enhance overall fault tolerance by estimating and compensating for actuator disturbance and fault degree.During the derivation process,a linearized model of longitudinal dynamics is established.The suggested ILMPC approach is likely to be used in the design of hypersonic vehicle control systems since numerical simulations have demonstrated that it can decrease tracking error and speed up convergence when compared to the offline controller.

文摘Predicting the health status of stroke patients at different stages of the disease is a critical clinical task.The onset and development of stroke are affected by an array of factors,encompassing genetic predisposition,environmental exposure,unhealthy lifestyle habits,and existing medical conditions.Although existing machine learning-based methods for predicting stroke patients’health status have made significant progress,limitations remain in terms of prediction accuracy,model explainability,and system optimization.This paper proposes a multi-task learning approach based on Explainable Artificial Intelligence(XAI)for predicting the health status of stroke patients.First,we design a comprehensive multi-task learning framework that utilizes the task correlation of predicting various health status indicators in patients,enabling the parallel prediction of multiple health indicators.Second,we develop a multi-task Area Under Curve(AUC)optimization algorithm based on adaptive low-rank representation,which removes irrelevant information from the model structure to enhance the performance of multi-task AUC optimization.Additionally,the model’s explainability is analyzed through the stability analysis of SHAP values.Experimental results demonstrate that our approach outperforms comparison algorithms in key prognostic metrics F1 score and Efficiency.

文摘Aerosol optical depth(AOD)and fine particulate matter with a diameter of less than or equal to 2.5μm(PM_(2.5))play crucial roles in air quality,human health,and climate change.However,the complex correlation of AOD–PM_(2.5)and the limitations of existing algorithms pose a significant challenge in realizing the accurate joint retrieval of these two parameters at the same location.On this point,a multi-task learning(MTL)model,which enables the joint retrieval of PM_(2.5)concentration and AOD,is proposed and applied on the top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance data gathered by the Fengyun-4A Advanced Geosynchronous Radiation Imager(FY-4A AGRI),and compared to that of two single-task learning models—namely,Random Forest(RF)and Deep Neural Network(DNN).Specifically,MTL achieves a coefficient of determination(R^(2))of 0.88 and a root-mean-square error(RMSE)of 0.10 in AOD retrieval.In comparison to RF,the R^(2)increases by 0.04,the RMSE decreases by 0.02,and the percentage of retrieval results falling within the expected error range(Within-EE)rises by 5.55%.The R^(2)and RMSE of PM_(2.5)retrieval by MTL are 0.84 and 13.76μg m~(-3)respectively.Compared with RF,the R^(2)increases by 0.06,the RMSE decreases by 4.55μg m~(-3),and the Within-EE increases by 7.28%.Additionally,compared to DNN,MTL shows an increase of 0.01 in R^(2)and a decrease of 0.02 in RMSE in AOD retrieval,with a corresponding increase of 2.89%in Within-EE.For PM_(2.5)retrieval,MTL exhibits an increase of 0.05 in R^(2),a decrease of 1.76μg m~(-3)in RMSE,and an increase of 6.83%in Within-EE.The evaluation suggests that MTL is able to provide simultaneously improved AOD and PM_(2.5)retrievals,demonstrating a significant advantage in efficiently capturing the spatial distribution of PM_(2.5)concentration and AOD.

文摘The accurate prediction of drug absorption,distribution,metabolism,excretion,and toxicity(ADMET)properties represents a crucial step in early drug development for reducing failure risk.Current deep learning approaches face challenges with data sparsity and information loss due to single-molecule representation limitations and isolated predictive tasks.This research proposes molecular properties prediction with parallel-view and collaborative learning(MolP-PC),a multi-view fusion and multi-task deep learning framework that integrates 1D molecular fingerprints(MFs),2D molecular graphs,and 3D geometric representations,incorporating an attention-gated fusion mechanism and multi-task adaptive learning strategy for precise ADMET property predictions.Experimental results demonstrate that MolP-PC achieves optimal performance in 27 of 54 tasks,with its multi-task learning(MTL)mechanism significantly enhancing predictive performance on small-scale datasets and surpassing single-task models in 41 of 54 tasks.Additional ablation studies and interpretability analyses confirm the significance of multi-view fusion in capturing multi-dimensional molecular information and enhancing model generalization.A case study examining the anticancer compound Oroxylin A demonstrates MolP-PC’s effective generalization in predicting key pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life(T0.5)and clearance(CL),indicating its practical utility in drug modeling.However,the model exhibits a tendency to underestimate volume of distribution(VD),indicating potential for improvement in analyzing compounds with high tissue distribution.This study presents an efficient and interpretable approach for ADMET property prediction,establishing a novel framework for molecular optimization and risk assessment in drug development.
文摘Edge Machine Learning(EdgeML)and Tiny Machine Learning(TinyML)are fast-growing fields that bring machine learning to resource-constrained devices,allowing real-time data processing and decision-making at the network’s edge.However,the complexity of model conversion techniques,diverse inference mechanisms,and varied learning strategies make designing and deploying these models challenging.Additionally,deploying TinyML models on resource-constrained hardware with specific software frameworks has broadened EdgeML’s applications across various sectors.These factors underscore the necessity for a comprehensive literature review,as current reviews do not systematically encompass the most recent findings on these topics.Consequently,it provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art techniques in model conversion,inference mechanisms,learning strategies within EdgeML,and deploying these models on resource-constrained edge devices using TinyML.It identifies 90 research articles published between 2018 and 2025,categorizing them into two main areas:(1)model conversion,inference,and learning strategies in EdgeML and(2)deploying TinyML models on resource-constrained hardware using specific software frameworks.In the first category,the synthesis of selected research articles compares and critically reviews various model conversion techniques,inference mechanisms,and learning strategies.In the second category,the synthesis identifies and elaborates on major development boards,software frameworks,sensors,and algorithms used in various applications across six major sectors.As a result,this article provides valuable insights for researchers,practitioners,and developers.It assists them in choosing suitable model conversion techniques,inference mechanisms,learning strategies,hardware development boards,software frameworks,sensors,and algorithms tailored to their specific needs and applications across various sectors.

文摘Heterogeneous federated learning(HtFL)has gained significant attention due to its ability to accommodate diverse models and data from distributed combat units.The prototype-based HtFL methods were proposed to reduce the high communication cost of transmitting model parameters.These methods allow for the sharing of only class representatives between heterogeneous clients while maintaining privacy.However,existing prototype learning approaches fail to take the data distribution of clients into consideration,which results in suboptimal global prototype learning and insufficient client model personalization capabilities.To address these issues,we propose a fair trainable prototype federated learning(FedFTP)algorithm,which employs a fair sampling training prototype(FSTP)mechanism and a hyperbolic space constraints(HSC)mechanism to enhance the fairness and effectiveness of prototype learning on the server in heterogeneous environments.Furthermore,a local prototype stable update(LPSU)mechanism is proposed as a means of maintaining personalization while promoting global consistency,based on contrastive learning.Comprehensive experimental results demonstrate that FedFTP achieves state-of-the-art performance in HtFL scenarios.
文摘Geared-rotor systems are critical components in mechanical applications,and their performance can be severely affected by faults,such as profile errors,wear,pitting,spalling,flaking,and cracks.Profile errors in gear teeth are inevitable in manufacturing and subsequently accumulate during operations.This work aims to predict the status of gear profile deviations based on gear dynamics response using the digital model of an experimental rig setup.The digital model comprises detailed CAD models and has been validated against the expected physical behavior using commercial finite element analysis software.The different profile deviations are then modeled using gear charts,and the dynamic response is captured through simulations.The various features are then obtained by signal processing,and various ML models are then evaluated to predict the fault/no-fault condition for the gear.The best performance is achieved by an artificial neural network with a prediction accuracy of 97.5%,which concludes a strong influence on the dynamics of the gear rotor system due to profile deviations.
