Abstract Differentiating between regular and abnormal noises in machine-generated sounds is a crucial but difficult problem. For accurate audio signal classification, suitable and efficient techniques are needed, particularly machine learning approaches for automated classification. Due to the dynamic and diverse representative characteristics of audio data, the probability of achieving high classification accuracy is relatively low and requires further research efforts. This study proposes an ensemble model based on the LeNet and hierarchical attention mechanism (HAM) models with MFCC features to enhance the models’ capacity to handle bias. Additionally, CNNs, bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM), CRNN, LSTM, capsule network More >

Abstract The growing energy demand of buildings, driven by rapid urbanization, poses significant challenges for sustainable urban development. As buildings account for over 40% of global energy consumption, innovative solutions are needed to improve efficiency, resilience, and environmental performance. This paper reviews the integration of Digital Twin (DT) technologies and Machine Learning (ML) for optimizing energy management in smart buildings connected to smart grids. A key enabler of this integration is the Internet of Things (IoT), which provides the sensor networks and real-time data streams that fee/d DT–ML frameworks, enabling accurate monitoring, forecasting, and adaptive control.… More >

Abstract This research establishes a methodological framework for generating geometrically accurate 3D representations of human crystalline lenses through scanning technologies and digital reconstruction. Multiple scanning systems were evaluated to identify optimal approaches for point cloud processing and subsequent development of parameterized solid models, facilitating comprehensive morpho-geometric characterization. Experimental work was performed at the 3D Scanning Laboratory of SEDIC (Industrial Design and Scientific Calculation Service) at the Technical University of Cartagena, employing five distinct scanner types based on structured light, laser, and infrared technologies. Test specimens—including preliminary calibration using a lentil and biological analysis of a human… More >

Abstract Diagnosing gastrointestinal tract diseases is a critical task requiring accurate and efficient methodologies. While deep learning models have significantly advanced medical image analysis, challenges such as imbalanced datasets and redundant features persist. This study proposes a novel framework that customizes two deep learning models, NasNetMobile and ResNet50, by incorporating bottleneck architectures, named as NasNeck and ResNeck, to enhance feature extraction. The feature vectors are fused into a combined vector, which is further optimized using an improved Whale Optimization Algorithm to minimize redundancy and improve discriminative power. The optimized feature vector is then classified using artificial… More >

Abstract Advancements in radiation-based imaging and computational intelligence have significantly improved medical diagnostics, particularly in dermatology. This study presents an ensemble-based skin lesion classification framework that integrates deep neural networks (DNNs) with transfer learning, a customized DNN, and an optimized self-learning binary differential evolution (SLBDE) algorithm for feature selection and fusion. Leveraging computational techniques alongside medical imaging modalities, the proposed framework extracts and fuses discriminative features from multiple pre-trained models to improve classification robustness. The methodology is evaluated on benchmark datasets, including ISIC 2017 and the Argentina Skin Lesion dataset, demonstrating superior accuracy, precision, and F1-score… More >

Abstract Cyber-physical systems (CPS) represent a sophisticated integration of computational and physical components that power critical applications such as smart manufacturing, healthcare, and autonomous infrastructure. However, their extensive reliance on internet connectivity makes them increasingly susceptible to cyber threats, potentially leading to operational failures and data breaches. Furthermore, CPS faces significant threats related to unauthorized access, improper management, and tampering of the content it generates. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system (IDS) optimized for CPS environments using a hybrid approach by combining a nature-inspired feature selection scheme, such as Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO),… More >

Abstract Data-driven research on recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) has long faced the challenge of lacking a unified testing standard dataset, hindering accurate model evaluation and trust in predictive outcomes. This paper reviews critical parameters influencing mechanical properties in 35 RAC studies, compiles four datasets encompassing these parameters, and compiles the performance and key findings of 77 published data-driven models. Baseline capability tests are conducted on the nine most used models. The paper also outlines advanced methodological frameworks for future RAC research, examining the principles and challenges of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and generative adversarial networks (GANs), More >

Abstract QR codes are widely used in applications such as information sharing, advertising, and digital payments. However, their growing adoption has made them attractive targets for malicious activities, including malware distribution and phishing attacks. Traditional detection approaches rely on URL analysis or image-based feature extraction, which may introduce significant computational overhead and limit real-time applicability, and their performance often depends on the quality of extracted features. Previous studies in malicious detection do not fully focus on QR code security when combining convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with recurrent neural networks (RNNs). This research proposes a deep learning… More >

Abstract Viscoelastic solids, such as composite propellants, exhibit significant time and rate dependencies, and their fracture processes display high levels of nonlinearity. However, the correlation between crack propagation and viscoelastic energy dissipation in these materials remains unclear. Therefore, accurately modeling and understanding of their fracture behavior is crucial for relevant engineering applications. This study proposes a novel viscoelastic phase-field model. In the numerical implementation, the adopted adaptive time-stepping iterative strategy effectively accelerates the coupling iteration efficiency between the phase-field and the displacement field. Moreover, all unknown parameters in the model, including the form of the phase-field More >
