Abstract Field–road classification, a fine-grained form of agricultural machinery operation-mode identification, aims to use Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) trajectory data to assign each trajectory point a semantic label indicating whether the machine is performing field work or travelling on roads. Existing methods struggle with highly imbalanced class distributions, noisy measurements, and intricate spatiotemporal dependencies. This paper presents AgroGeoDB-Net, a unified framework that combines a residual BiLSTM backbone with two tightly coupled innovations: (i) a Density-Aware Local Interpolator (DALI), which balances the minority road class via density-aware interpolation while preserving road-segment structure; and (ii) a geometry-aware… More >

Abstract In recent years, increasing urban mobility and complex traffic dynamics have intensified the need for accurate traffic flow forecasting in intelligent transportation systems. However, existing models often struggle to jointly capture short-term fluctuations and long-term temporal dependencies under noisy and heterogeneous traffic conditions. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a hybrid traffic flow forecasting framework that integrates Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN), the Mamba state-space model, and the Transformer architecture. The framework first applies DBSCAN to multidimensional traffic features to enhance traffic state representation and reduce noise. The prediction module alternates… More >

Abstract With the popularization of smart devices, Location-Based Services (LBS) greatly facilitates users’ life, but at the same time brings the risk of users’ location privacy leakage. Existing location privacy protection methods are deficient, failing to reasonably allocate the privacy budget for non-outlier location points and ignoring the critical location information that may be contained in the outlier points, leading to decreased data availability and privacy exposure problems. To address these problems, this paper proposes a Mix Location Privacy Preservation Method Based on Differential Privacy with Clustering (MLDP). The method first utilizes the DBSCAN clustering algorithm… More >

Abstract Accurate short-term photovoltaic (PV) power prediction helps to improve the economic efficiency of power stations and is of great significance to the arrangement of grid scheduling plans. In order to improve the accuracy of PV power prediction further, this paper proposes a data cleaning method combining density clustering and support vector machine. It constructs a short-term PV power prediction model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) optimized Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network. Firstly, the input features are determined using Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The feature information is clustered using density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise More >

Abstract In this paper, considering the cost of base station, coverage, call quality, and other practical factors, a multi-objective optimal site planning scheme is proposed. Firstly, based on practical needs, mathematical modeling methods were used to establish mathematical expressions for the three sub-objectives of cost objectives, coverage objectives, and quality objectives. Then, a multi-objective optimization model was established by combining threshold and traffic volume constraints. In order to reduce the time complexity of optimization, a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) is used to solve the multi-objective optimization problem of site planning. Finally, a strategy for clustering… More >

Abstract Finding clusters based on density represents a significant class of clustering algorithms. These methods can discover clusters of various shapes and sizes. The most studied algorithm in this class is the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN). It identifies clusters by grouping the densely connected objects into one group and discarding the noise objects. It requires two input parameters: epsilon (fixed neighborhood radius) and MinPts (the lowest number of objects in epsilon). However, it can’t handle clusters of various densities since it uses a global value for epsilon. This article proposes an adaptation of the… More >

Abstract In Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), controlling the traffic flow of a region in a city is the major challenge. Particularly, allocation of the traffic-free route to the taxi drivers during peak hours is one of the challenges to control the traffic flow. So, in this paper, the route between the taxi driver and pickup location or hotspot with the spatial-temporal dependencies is optimized. Initially, the hotspots in a region are clustered using the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) algorithm to find the hot spots at the peak hours in an urban area.… More >
