The creation of such fuels depends on designing molecular structures and calculating their properties, which can be expedited with computer-aided techniques. In this study, a dataset containing 367 fuel molecules was constructed based on the analysis of direct coal liquefied oil. Three convolutional neural network property prediction models have been created based on molecular structure-physical and chemical property data from the library. All the models have good fitting ability with R2 values above 0.97. Then, a variational autoencoder generation model has been established using the molecular structures from the library, focusing on the structure of saturated cycloalkanes. The structure-property prediction model was then applied to the newly generated molecules, assessing their density, volumetric calorific value, and melting point. As a result, 70000 novel molecular structures were generated, and 25 molecular structures meeting the criteria for high energy density fuels were identified. The established variational autoencoder model in this study effectively assimilates the structural information from the sample set and autonomously generates novel high energy density fuels, which is difficult to achieve in traditional experimental methods.展开更多

文摘In the face of the unrelenting challenge posed by earthquakes-a natural hazard of unpredictable nature with a legacy of significant loss of life,destruction of infrastructure,and profound economic and social impacts-the scientific community has pursued advancements in earthquake early warning systems(EEWSs).These systems are vital for pre-emptive actions and decision-making that can save lives and safeguard critical infrastructure.This study proposes and validates a domain-informed deep learning-based EEWS called the hybrid earthquake early warning framework for estimating response spectra(HEWFERS),which represents a significant leap forward in the capabilities to predict ground shaking intensity in real-time,aligning with the United Nations’disaster risk reduction goals.HEWFERS ingeniously integrates a domain-informed variational autoencoder for physics-based latent variable(LV)extraction,a feed-forward neural network for on-site prediction,and Gaussian process regression for spatial prediction.Adopting explainable artificial intelligence-based Shapley explanations further elucidates the predictive mechanisms,ensuring stakeholder-informed decisions.By conducting an extensive analysis of the proposed framework under a large database of approximately 14000 recorded ground motions,this study offers insights into the potential of integrating machine learning with seismology to revolutionize earthquake preparedness and response,thus paving the way for a safer and more resilient future.

文摘To overcome the challenges of limited experimental data and improve the accuracy of empirical formulas,we propose a low-cycle fatigue(LCF)life prediction model for nickel-based superalloys using a data augmentation method.This method utilizes a variational autoencoder(VAE)to generate low-cycle fatigue data and form an augmented dataset.The Pearson correlation coefficient(PCC)is employed to verify the similarity of feature distributions between the original and augmented datasets.Six machine learning models,namely random forest(RF),artificial neural network(ANN),support vector machine(SVM),gradient-boosted decision tree(GBDT),eXtreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),and Categorical Boosting(CatBoost),are utilized to predict the LCF life of nickel-based superalloys.Results indicate that the proposed data augmentation method based on VAE can effectively expand the dataset,and the mean absolute error(MAE),root mean square error(RMSE),and R-squared(R^(2))values achieved using the CatBoost model,with respective values of 0.0242,0.0391,and 0.9538,are superior to those of the other models.The proposed method reduces the cost and time associated with LCF experiments and accurately establishes the relationship between fatigue characteristics and LCF life of nickel-based superalloys.

文摘An efficient,diversified,and low-dimensional airfoil parameterization method is critical to airfoil aerodynamic optimization design.This paper proposes a supersonic airfoil parameterization method based on a bijective cycle generative adversarial network(Bicycle-GAN),whose performance is compared with that of the conditional variational autoencoder(cVAE)based parameterization method in terms of parsimony,flawlessness,intuitiveness,and physicality.In all four aspects,the Bicycle-GAN-based parameterization method is superior to the cVAEbased parameterization method.Combined with multifidelity Gaussian process regression(MFGPR)surrogate model and a Bayesian optimization algorithm,a Bicycle-GAN-based optimization framework is established for the aerodynamic performance optimization of airfoils immersed in supersonic flow,which is compared with the cVAE-based optimization method in terms of optimized efficiency and effectiveness.The MFGPR surrogate model is established using low-fidelity aerodynamic data obtained from supersonic thin-airfoil theory and high-fidelity aerodynamic data obtained from steady CFD simulation.For both supersonic conditions,the CFD simulation costs are reduced by>20%compared with those of the cVAE-based optimization,and better optimization results are obtained through the Bicycle-GAN model.The optimization results for this supersonic flow point to a sharper leading edge,a smaller camber and thickness with a flatter lower surface,and a maximum thickness at 50%chord length.The advantages of the Bicycle-GAN and MFGPR models are comprehensively demonstrated in terms of airfoil generation characteristics,surrogate model prediction accuracy and optimization efficiency.

文摘Direct coal liquefaction products offer a considerable quantity of cycloalkanes, which are the valuable candidates for making the high energy density fuels. The creation of such fuels depends on designing molecular structures and calculating their properties, which can be expedited with computer-aided techniques. In this study, a dataset containing 367 fuel molecules was constructed based on the analysis of direct coal liquefied oil. Three convolutional neural network property prediction models have been created based on molecular structure-physical and chemical property data from the library. All the models have good fitting ability with R2 values above 0.97. Then, a variational autoencoder generation model has been established using the molecular structures from the library, focusing on the structure of saturated cycloalkanes. The structure-property prediction model was then applied to the newly generated molecules, assessing their density, volumetric calorific value, and melting point. As a result, 70000 novel molecular structures were generated, and 25 molecular structures meeting the criteria for high energy density fuels were identified. The established variational autoencoder model in this study effectively assimilates the structural information from the sample set and autonomously generates novel high energy density fuels, which is difficult to achieve in traditional experimental methods.

文摘Inverse design has long been an efficient and powerful design tool in the aircraft industry.In this paper,a novel inverse design method for supercritical airfoils is proposed based on generative models in deep learning.A Conditional Variational Auto Encoder(CVAE)and an integrated generative network CVAE-GAN that combines the CVAE with the Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks(WGAN),are conducted as generative models.They are used to generate target wall Mach distributions for the inverse design that matches specified features,such as locations of suction peak,shock and aft loading.Qualitative and quantitative results show that both adopted generative models can generate diverse and realistic wall Mach number distributions satisfying the given features.The CVAE-GAN model outperforms the CVAE model and achieves better reconstruction accuracies for all the samples in the dataset.Furthermore,a deep neural network for nonlinear mapping is adopted to obtain the airfoil shape corresponding to the target wall Mach number distribution.The performances of the designed deep neural network are fully demonstrated and a smoothness measurement is proposed to quantify small oscillations in the airfoil surface,proving the authenticity and accuracy of the generated airfoil shapes.
文摘Stocks that are fundamentally connected with each other tend to move together.Considering such common trends is believed to benefit stock movement forecasting tasks.However,such signals are not trivial to model because the connections among stocks are not physically presented and need to be estimated from volatile data.Motivated by this observation,we propose a framework that incorporates the inter-connection of firms to forecast stock prices.To effectively utilize a large set of fundamental features,we further design a novel pipeline.First,we use variational autoencoder(VAE)to reduce the dimension of stock fundamental information and then cluster stocks into a graph structure(fundamentally clustering).Second,a hybrid model of graph convolutional network and long-short term memory network(GCN-LSTM)with an adjacency graph matrix(learnt from VAE)is proposed for graph-structured stock market forecasting.Experiments on minute-level U.S.stock market data demonstrate that our model effectively captures both spatial and temporal signals and achieves superior improvement over baseline methods.The proposed model is promising for other applications in which there is a possible but hidden spatial dependency to improve time-series prediction.

文摘Weak feature extraction is of great importance for condition monitoring and intelligent diagnosis of aeroengine.Aimed at achieving intelligent diagnosis of aero-engine main shaft bearing,an enhanced sparsity-assisted intelligent condition monitoring method is proposed in this paper.Through analyzing the weakness of convex sparse model,i.e.the tradeoff between noise reduction and feature reconstruction,this paper proposes an enhanced-sparsity nonconvex regularized convex model based on Moreau envelope to achieve weak feature extraction.Accordingly,a sparsity-assisted deep convolutional variational autoencoders network is proposed,which achieves the intelligent identification of fault state through training denoised normal data.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through aero-engine bearing run-to-failure experiment.The comparison results show that the proposed method is good at abnormal pattern recognition,showing a good potential for weak fault intelligent diagnosis of aero-engine main shaft bearings.

文摘With the development of intelligent agents pursuing humanisation,artificial intelligence must consider emotion,the most basic spiritual need in human interaction.Traditional emotional dialogue systems usually use an external emotional dictionary to select appropriate emotional words to add to the response or concatenate emotional tags and semantic features in the decoding step to generate appropriate responses.However,selecting emotional words from a fixed emotional dictionary may result in loss of the diversity and consistency of the response.We propose a semantic and emotion-based dual latent variable generation model(Dual-LVG)for dialogue systems,which is able to generate appropriate emotional responses without an emotional dictionary.Different from previous work,the conditional variational autoencoder(CVAE)adopts the standard transformer structure.Then,Dual-LVG regularises the CVAE latent space by introducing a dual latent space of semantics and emotion.The content diversity and emotional accuracy of the generated responses are improved by learning emotion and semantic features respectively.Moreover,the average attention mechanism is adopted to better extract semantic features at the sequence level,and the semi-supervised attention mechanism is used in the decoding step to strengthen the fusion of emotional features of the model.Experimental results show that Dual-LVG can successfully achieve the effect of generating different content by controlling emotional factors.

文摘Ensuring the safe and efficient operation of self-driving vehicles relies heavily on accurately predicting their future trajectories.Existing approaches commonly employ an encoder-decoder neural network structure to enhance information extraction during the encoding phase.However,these methods often neglect the inclusion of road rule constraints during trajectory formulation in the decoding phase.This paper proposes a novel method that combines neural networks and rule-based constraints in the decoder stage to improve trajectory prediction accuracy while ensuring compliance with vehicle kinematics and road rules.The approach separates vehicle trajectories into lateral and longitudinal routes and utilizes conditional variational autoencoder(CVAE)to capture trajectory uncertainty.The evaluation results demonstrate a reduction of 32.4%and 27.6%in the average displacement error(ADE)for predicting the top five and top ten trajectories,respectively,compared to the baseline method.

文摘Contemporary attackers,mainly motivated by financial gain,consistently devise sophisticated penetration techniques to access important information or data.The growing use of Internet of Things(IoT)technology in the contemporary convergence environment to connect to corporate networks and cloud-based applications only worsens this situation,as it facilitates multiple new attack vectors to emerge effortlessly.As such,existing intrusion detection systems suffer from performance degradation mainly because of insufficient considerations and poorly modeled detection systems.To address this problem,we designed a blended threat detection approach,considering the possible impact and dimensionality of new attack surfaces due to the aforementioned convergence.We collectively refer to the convergence of different technology sectors as the internet of blended environment.The proposed approach encompasses an ensemble of heterogeneous probabilistic autoencoders that leverage the corresponding advantages of a convolutional variational autoencoder and long short-term memory variational autoencoder.An extensive experimental analysis conducted on the TON_IoT dataset demonstrated 96.02%detection accuracy.Furthermore,performance of the proposed approach was compared with various single model(autoencoder)-based network intrusion detection approaches:autoencoder,variational autoencoder,convolutional variational autoencoder,and long short-term memory variational autoencoder.The proposed model outperformed all compared models,demonstrating F1-score improvements of 4.99%,2.25%,1.92%,and 3.69%,respectively.
