Continuous improvements in the accuracy of surface mass loading products, performance of Earth models, and precise data-processing technologies have significantly advanced research on the effects of environmental loading on nonlinear variations in GNSS coordinate time series. However, owing to theoretical limitations, the lack of high spatiotemporal resolution surface mass observations, and the coupling of GNSS technology-related systematic errors, environmental loading and nonlinear GNSS reference station displacements remain inconsistent. The applicability and capability of these loading products across different regions also require further evaluation. This paper outlines methods for modeling environmental loading, surface mass loading products, and service organizations. In addition, it summarizes recent advances in applying environmental loading to address nonlinear variations in global and regional GNSS coordinate time series. Moreover, the scientific questions of existing studies are summarized, and insights into future research directions are provided. The complex nonlinear motion of reference stations is a major factor limiting the accuracy of the current terrestrial reference frame. Further refining the environmental load modeling method, establishing a surface mass distribution model with high spatiotemporal resolution and reliability, exploring other environmental load factors such as ice sheet and artificial mass-change effects, and developing an optimal data-processing model and strategy for reprocessing global reference station data consistently could contribute to the development of a millimeter-level nonlinear motion model for GNSS reference stations with actual physical significance and provide theoretical support for establishing a terrestrial reference frame with 1 mm accuracy by 2050.展开更多

文摘Nonlinear variations in the coordinate time series of global navigation satellite system(GNSS) reference stations are strongly correlated with surface displacements caused by environmental loading effects,including atmospheric, hydrological, and nontidal ocean loading. Continuous improvements in the accuracy of surface mass loading products, performance of Earth models, and precise data-processing technologies have significantly advanced research on the effects of environmental loading on nonlinear variations in GNSS coordinate time series. However, owing to theoretical limitations, the lack of high spatiotemporal resolution surface mass observations, and the coupling of GNSS technology-related systematic errors, environmental loading and nonlinear GNSS reference station displacements remain inconsistent. The applicability and capability of these loading products across different regions also require further evaluation. This paper outlines methods for modeling environmental loading, surface mass loading products, and service organizations. In addition, it summarizes recent advances in applying environmental loading to address nonlinear variations in global and regional GNSS coordinate time series. Moreover, the scientific questions of existing studies are summarized, and insights into future research directions are provided. The complex nonlinear motion of reference stations is a major factor limiting the accuracy of the current terrestrial reference frame. Further refining the environmental load modeling method, establishing a surface mass distribution model with high spatiotemporal resolution and reliability, exploring other environmental load factors such as ice sheet and artificial mass-change effects, and developing an optimal data-processing model and strategy for reprocessing global reference station data consistently could contribute to the development of a millimeter-level nonlinear motion model for GNSS reference stations with actual physical significance and provide theoretical support for establishing a terrestrial reference frame with 1 mm accuracy by 2050.

文摘Active landslides pose a significant threat globally,endangering lives and property.Effective monitoring and forecasting of displacements are essential for the timely warnings and mitigation of these events.Interferometric synthetic aperture radar(InSAR)stands out as an efficient and prevalent tool for monitoring landslide deformation and offers new prospects for displacement prediction.However,challenges such as inherent limitation of satellite viewing geometry,long revisit cycles,and limited data volume hinder its application in displacement forecasting,notably for landslides with near-north-south deformation less detectable by InSAR.To address these issues,we propose a novel strategy for predicting three-dimensional(3D)landslide displacement,integrating InSAR and global navigation satellite system(GNSS)measurements with machine learning(ML).This framework first synergizes InSAR line-of-sight(LOS)results with GNSS horizontal data to reconstruct 3D displacement time series.It then employs ML models to capture complex nonlinear relationships between external triggers,landslide evolutionary states,and 3D displacements,thus enabling accurate future deformation predictions.Utilizing four advanced ML algorithms,i.e.random forest(RF),support vector machine(SVM),long short-term memory(LSTM),and gated recurrent unit(GRU),with Bayesian optimization(BO)for hyperparameter tuning,we applied this innovative approach to the north-facing,slow-moving Xinpu landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area(TGRA)of China.Leveraging over 6.5 years of Sentinel-1 satellite data and GNSS measurements,our framework demonstrates satisfactory and robust prediction performance,with an average root mean square deviation(RMSD)of 9.62 mm and a correlation coefficient(CC)of 0.996.This study presents a promising strategy for 3D displacement prediction,illustrating the efficacy of integrating InSAR monitoring with ML forecasting in enhancing landslide early warning capabilities.

文摘Time series anomaly detection is crucial in finance,healthcare,and industrial monitoring.However,traditional methods often face challenges when handling time series data,such as limited feature extraction capability,poor temporal dependency handling,and suboptimal real-time performance,sometimes even neglecting the temporal relationships between data.To address these issues and improve anomaly detection performance by better capturing temporal dependencies,we propose an unsupervised time series anomaly detection method,VLT-Anomaly.First,we enhance the Variational Autoencoder(VAE)module by redesigning its network structure to better suit anomaly detection through data reconstruction.We introduce hyperparameters to control the weight of the Kullback-Leibler(KL)divergence term in the Evidence Lower Bound(ELBO),thereby improving the encoder module’s decoupling and expressive power in the latent space,which yields more effective latent representations of the data.Next,we incorporate transformer and Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)modules to estimate the long-term dependencies of the latent representations,capturing both forward and backward temporal relationships and performing time series forecasting.Finally,we compute the reconstruction error by averaging the predicted results and decoder reconstruction and detect anomalies through grid search for optimal threshold values.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method performs superior anomaly detection on multiple public time series datasets,effectively extracting complex time-related features and enabling efficient computation and real-time anomaly detection.It improves detection accuracy and robustness while reducing false positives and false negatives.
文摘Time series forecasting is important in the fields of finance,energy,and meteorology,but traditional methods often fail to cope with the complex nonlinear and nonstationary processes of real data.In this paper,we propose the FractalNet-LSTM model,which combines fractal convolutional units with recurrent long short-term memory(LSTM)layers to model time series efficiently.To test the effectiveness of the model,data with complex structures and patterns,in particular,with seasonal and cyclical effects,were used.To better demonstrate the obtained results and the formed conclusions,the model performance was shown on the datasets of electricity consumption,sunspot activity,and Spotify stock price.The result showed that the proposed model outperforms traditional approaches at medium forecasting horizons and demonstrates high accuracy for data with long-term and cyclical dependencies.However,for financial data with high volatility,the model’s efficiency decreases at long forecasting horizons,indicating the need for further adaptation.The findings suggest further adaptation.The findings suggest that integrating fractal properties into neural network architecture improves the accuracy of time series forecasting and can be useful for developing more accurate and reliable forecasting systems in various industries.

文摘Deep learning(DL)has revolutionized time series forecasting(TSF),surpassing traditional statistical methods(e.g.,ARIMA)and machine learning techniques in modeling complex nonlinear dynamics and long-term dependencies prevalent in real-world temporal data.This comprehensive survey reviews state-of-the-art DL architectures forTSF,focusing on four core paradigms:(1)ConvolutionalNeuralNetworks(CNNs),adept at extracting localized temporal features;(2)Recurrent Neural Networks(RNNs)and their advanced variants(LSTM,GRU),designed for sequential dependency modeling;(3)Graph Neural Networks(GNNs),specialized for forecasting structured relational data with spatial-temporal dependencies;and(4)Transformer-based models,leveraging self-attention mechanisms to capture global temporal patterns efficiently.We provide a rigorous analysis of the theoretical underpinnings,recent algorithmic advancements(e.g.,TCNs,attention mechanisms,hybrid architectures),and practical applications of each framework,supported by extensive benchmark datasets(e.g.,ETT,traffic flow,financial indicators)and standardized evaluation metrics(MAE,MSE,RMSE).Critical challenges,including handling irregular sampling intervals,integrating domain knowledge for robustness,and managing computational complexity,are thoroughly discussed.Emerging research directions highlighted include diffusion models for uncertainty quantification,hybrid pipelines combining classical statistical and DL techniques for enhanced interpretability,quantile regression with Transformers for riskaware forecasting,and optimizations for real-time deployment.This work serves as an essential reference,consolidating methodological innovations,empirical resources,and future trends to bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical implementation needs for researchers and practitioners in the field.

文摘Timely identification and forecast of maize tasseling date(TD)are very important for agronomic management,yield prediction,and crop phenotype estimation.Remote sensing-based phenology monitoring has mostly relied on time series spectral index data of the complete growth season.A recent development in maize phenology detection research is to use canopy height(CH)data instead of spectral indices,but its robustness in multiple treatments and stages has not been confirmed.Meanwhile,because data of a complete growth season are needed,the need for timely in-season TD identification remains unmet.This study proposed an approach to timely identify and forecast the maize TD.We obtained RGB and light detection and ranging(Li DAR)data using the unmanned aerial vehicle platform over plots of different maize varieties under multiple treatments.After CH estimation,the feature points(inflection point)from the Logistic curve of the CH time series were extracted as TD.We examined the impact of various independent variables(day of year vs.accumulated growing degree days(AGDD)),sensors(RGB and Li DAR),time series denoise methods,different feature points,and temporal resolution on TD identification.Lastly,we used early CH time series data to predict height growth and further forecast TD.The results showed that using the 99th percentile of plot scale digital surface model and the minimum digital terrain model from Li DAR to estimate maize CH was the most stable across treatments and stages(R~2:0.928 to0.943).For TD identification,the best performance was achieved by using Li DAR data with AGDD as the independent variable,combined with the knee point method,resulting in RMSE of 2.95 d.The high accuracy was maintained at temporal resolutions as coarse as 14 d.TD forecast got more accurate as the CH time series extended.The optimal timing for forecasting TD was when the CH exceeded half of its maximum.Using only Li DAR CH data below 1.6 m and empirical growth rate estimates,the forecasted TD showed an RMSE of 3.90 d.In conclusion,this study exploited the growth characteristics of maize height to provide a practical approach for the timely identification and forecast of maize TD.

文摘Predictive maintenance often involves imbalanced multivariate time series datasets with scarce failure events,posing challenges for model training due to the high dimensionality of the data and the need for domain-specific preprocessing,which frequently leads to the development of large and complex models.Inspired by the success of Large Language Models(LLMs),transformer-based foundation models have been developed for time series(TSFM).These models have been proven to reconstruct time series in a zero-shot manner,being able to capture different patterns that effectively characterize time series.This paper proposes the use of TSFM to generate embeddings of the input data space,making them more interpretable for machine learning models.To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach,we trained three classical machine learning algorithms and one neural network using the embeddings generated by the TSFM called Moment for predicting the remaining useful life of aircraft engines.We test the models trained with both the full training dataset and only 10%of the training samples.Our results show that training simple models,such as support vector regressors or neural networks,with embeddings generated by Moment not only accelerates the training process but also enhances performance in few-shot learning scenarios,where data is scarce.This suggests a promising alternative to complex deep learning architectures,particularly in industrial contexts with limited labeled data.

文摘With the rapid development of the nuclear power industry on a global scale,the discharge of radioactive e uents from nuclear power plants and their impact on the environment have become important issues in radioactive waste management,radiation protection,and environmental impact assessments.-detection of nuclides requires tedious processes,such as waiting for the radioactive balance of the sample and pretreatment separation,and there is an urgent need for a method specifically designed for mixing rapid energy spectrum measurement method for nuclide samples.The analysis of hybrid-energy spectrum is proposed in this study as a new algorithm,which takes advantage of the spectral analysis of-logarithmic energy spectrum and fitting ability of Fourier series.The logarithmic energy spectrum is obtained by logarithmic conversion of the hybrid linear energy spectrum.The Fourier fitting interpolation method is used to fit the logarithmic energy spectrum numerically.Next,the interpolation points for the‘e ective high-energy window’and‘e ective low-energy window’corresponding to the highest E_(m)nuclide in the hybrid logarithmic fitted energy spectrum are set,and spline interpolation is performed three times to obtain the logarithmic fitted energy spectrum of the highest E_(m)nuclide.Finally,the logarithmic fitted spectrum of the highest E_(m)nuclide is subtracted from the hybrid logarithmic fitted spectrum to obtain a logarithmic fitted spectrum comprised of the remaining lower E_(m)nuclides.The aforementioned process is iterated in a loop to resolve the logarithmic spectra of each nuclide in the original hybrid logarithmic spectra.Then,the radioactivity of E_(m)nuclides to be measured is calculated.In the experimental tests,^(14)C,^(90)Sr,and ^(90)Y spectra,which are obtained using the Fourier fitting interpolation method are compared with the original simulated ^(14)C,^(90)Sr,and ^(90)Y spectra of GEANT4.The measured liquid scintillator data of ^(90)Sr∕^(90)Y sample source and simulated data from GEANT4 are then analyzed.Analysis of the experimental results indicates that the Fourier fitting interpolation method accurately solves ^(14)C,^(90)Sr,and ^(90)Y energy spectra,which is in good agreement with the original GEANT4 simulation.The error in ^(90)Y activity,calculated using the actual detection e ciency,is less than 10%and less than 5%when using the simulated full-spectrum detection e ciency,satisfying the experimental expectations.

文摘Objectives:This study aimed to explore the characteristics of outpatient blood collection center visit fluctuation and nursing workforce allocation based on a time series model,and the application effect was evaluated.Methods:To enhance the efficiency of phlebotomy at the hospital outpatient window and improve patient satisfaction,the First Affliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University implemented a time series analysis model in 2024 to optimize nursing staff allocation.The management team was led by a head nurse of the outpatient blood collection department with extensive experience.It included one director of the nursing department,six senior clinical nurses,one informatics expert,and one nursing master's degree holder.Retrospective time-series data from the hospital's smart blood collection system(including hourly blood collection volumes and waiting times)were extracted between January 2020 and December 2023.Time series analysis was used to identify annual,seasonal,monthly,and hourly variation patterns in blood collection volumes.Seasonal decomposition and the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model(ARIMA)were employed to forecast blood collection fluctuations for 2024 and facilitate dynamic scheduling.A comparison was conducted to evaluate differences in blood collection efficiency and patient satisfaction before(January-June 2023)and after(January-June 2024)implementing the dynamic scheduling model based on the time series analysis and forecasting.Results:Visit volumes showed periodicity and slow growth,peaking every second and third quarter of the year and daily at 8:00-9:00 a.m.and 2:00-3:00 p.m.The ARIMA model demonstrated a good fit(R2=0.692,mean absolute percentage error=8.28%).After adjusting the nursing staff allocation based on the fluctuation characteristics of the number of phlebotomy per hour in the time series analysis model,at the peak period of the blood collection window,at least three nurses,one mobile nurse and two volunteers were added.The number of phlebotomy per hour increased from 289.74±54.55 to 327.53±37.84 person-time(t=-10.041,P<0.01),waiting time decreased from 5.79±2.68 to 4.01±0.46 min(t=11.531,P<0.01),and satisfaction rose from 92.7%to 97.3%(χ^(2)=6.877,P<0.05).Conclusions:Based on the time series analysis method,it is helpful for nursing managers to accurately allocate human resources and optimize the efficiency of outpatient service resources by mining the special change rule of the outpatient blood collection window and predicting the future fluctuation trend.
文摘Recent advancements in smart-meter technology are transforming traditional power systems into intelligent smart grids.It offers substantial benefits across social,environmental,and economic dimensions.To effectively realize these advantages,a fine-grained collection and analysis of smart meter data is essential.However,the high dimensionality and volume of such time-series present significant challenges,including increased computational load,data transmission overhead,latency,and complexity in real-time analysis.This study proposes a novel,computationally efficient framework for feature extraction and selection tailored to smart meter time-series data.The approach begins with an extensive offline analysis,where features are derived from multiple domains—time,frequency,and statistical—to capture diverse signal characteristics.Various feature sets are fused and evaluated using robust machine learning classifiers to identify the most informative combinations for automated appliance categorization.The bestperforming fused features set undergoes further refinement using Analysis of Variance(ANOVA)to identify the most discriminative features.The mathematical models,used to compute the selected features,are optimized to extract them with computational efficiency during online processing.Moreover,a notable dimension reduction is secured which facilitates data storage,transmission,and post processing.Onward,a specifically designed LogitBoost(LB)based ensemble of Random Forest base learners is used for an automated classification.The proposed solution demonstrates a high classification accuracy(97.93%)for the case of nine-class problem and dimension reduction(17.33-fold)with minimal front-end computational requirements,making it well-suited for real-world applications in smart grid environments.

文摘As a category of recurrent neural networks,echo state networks(ESNs)have been the topic of in-depth investigations and extensive applications in a diverse array of fields,with spectacular triumphs achieved.Nevertheless,the traditional ESN and the majority of its variants are devised in the light of the second-order statistical information of data(e.g.,variance and covariance),while more information is neglected.In the context of information theoretic learning,correntropy demonstrates the capacity to grab more information from data.Therefore,under the guidelines of the maximum correntropy criterion,this paper proposes a correntropy-based echo state network(CESN)in which the first-order and higher-order information of data is captured,promoting robustness to noise.Furthermore,an incremental learning algorithm for the CESN is presented,which has the expertise to update the CESN when new data arrives,eliminating the need to retrain the network from scratch.Finally,experiments on benchmark problems and comparisons with existing works are provided to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed CESN.

文摘Site index(SI)is determined from the top height development and is a proxy for forest productivity,defined as the expected top height for a given species at a certain index age.In Norway,an index age of 40 years is used.By using bi-temporal airborne laser scanning(ALS)data,SI can be determined using models estimated from SI observed on field plots(the direct approach)or from predicted top heights at two points in time(the height differential approach).Time series of ALS data may enhance SI determination compared to conventional methods used in operational forest inventory by providing more detailed information about the top height development.We used longitudinal data comprising spatially consistent field and ALS data collected from training plots in 1999,2010,and 2022 to determine SI using the direct and height differential approaches using all combinations of years and performed an external validation.We also evaluated the use of data assimilation.Values of root mean square error obtained from external validation were in the ranges of 16.3%–21.4%and 12.8%–20.6%of the mean fieldregistered SI for the direct approach and the height differential approach,respectively.There were no statistically significant effects of time series length or the number of points in time on the obtained accuracies.Data assimilation did not result in any substantial improvement in the obtained accuracies.Although a time series of ALS data did not yield greater accuracies compared to using only two points in time,a larger proportion of the study area could be used in ALS-based determination of SI when a time series was available.This was because areas that were unsuitable for SI determination between two points in time could be subject to SI determination based on data from another part of the time series.
