Abstract Many existing immune detection algorithms rely on a large volume of labeled self-training samples, which are often difficult to obtain in practical scenarios, thus limiting the training of detection models. Furthermore, noise inherent in the samples can substantially degrade the detection accuracy of these algorithms. To overcome these challenges, we propose an immune generation algorithm that leverages clustering and a rebound mechanism for label propagation (LP-CRI). The dataset is randomly partitioned into multiple subsets, each of which undergoes clustering followed by label propagation and evaluation. The rebound mechanism assesses the model’s performance after propagation and More >

Abstract With the increasing integration of emerging source-load types such as distributed photovoltaics, electric vehicles, and energy storage into distribution networks, the operational characteristics of these networks have evolved from traditional single-load centers to complex multi-source, multi-load systems. This transition not only increases the difficulty of effectively classifying distribution networks due to their heightened complexity but also renders traditional energy management approaches—primarily focused on economic objectives—insufficient to meet the growing demands for flexible scheduling and dynamic response. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an adaptive multi-objective energy management strategy that accounts for the distinct operational… More >

Abstract The rapid development of electricity retail market has prompted an increasing number of electricity consumers to sign green electricity contracts with retail electricity companies, which poses greater challenges for the market service for green energy consumers. This study proposed a two-stage feature extraction approach for green energy consumers leveraging clustering and term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF–IDF) algorithms within a knowledge graph framework to provide an information basis that supports the green development of the retail electricity market. First, the multi-source heterogeneous data of green energy consumers under an actual market environment is systematically introduced and… More >

Abstract Music recommendation systems are essential due to the vast amount of music available on streaming platforms, which can overwhelm users trying to find new tracks that match their preferences. These systems analyze users’ emotional responses, listening habits, and personal preferences to provide personalized suggestions. A significant challenge they face is the “cold start” problem, where new users have no past interactions to guide recommendations. To improve user experience, these systems aim to effectively recommend music even to such users by considering their listening behavior and music popularity. This paper introduces a novel music recommendation system… More >

Abstract Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) rely on data aggregation to streamline routing operations by merging information at intermediate nodes before transmitting it to the sink. However, many existing data aggregation techniques are designed exclusively for static networks and fail to reflect the dynamic nature of underwater environments. Additionally, conventional multi-hop data gathering techniques often lead to energy depletion problems near the sink, commonly known as the energy hole issue. Moreover, cluster-based aggregation methods face significant challenges such as cluster head (CH) failures and collisions within clusters that degrade overall network performance. To address these limitations,… More >

Abstract Federated learning is a machine learning framework designed to protect privacy by keeping training data on clients’ devices without sharing private data. It trains a global model through collaboration between clients and the server. However, the presence of data heterogeneity can lead to inefficient model training and even reduce the final model’s accuracy and generalization capability. Meanwhile, data scarcity can result in suboptimal cluster distributions for few-shot clients in centralized clustering tasks, and standalone personalization tasks may cause severe overfitting issues. To address these limitations, we introduce a federated learning dual optimization model based on… More >

Abstract Data clustering is an essential technique for analyzing complex datasets and continues to be a central research topic in data analysis. Traditional clustering algorithms, such as K-means, are widely used due to their simplicity and efficiency. This paper proposes a novel Spiral Mechanism-Optimized Phasmatodea Population Evolution Algorithm (SPPE) to improve clustering performance. The SPPE algorithm introduces several enhancements to the standard Phasmatodea Population Evolution (PPE) algorithm. Firstly, a Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) factor is incorporated to strengthen the local search capability and foster population diversity. Secondly, a position update model, incorporating a spiral mechanism, is… More >

Abstract Existing multi-view deep subspace clustering methods aim to learn a unified representation from multi-view data, while the learned representation is difficult to maintain the underlying structure hidden in the origin samples, especially the high-order neighbor relationship between samples. To overcome the above challenges, this paper proposes a novel multi-order neighborhood fusion based multi-view deep subspace clustering model. We creatively integrate the multi-order proximity graph structures of different views into the self-expressive layer by a multi-order neighborhood fusion module. By this design, the multi-order Laplacian matrix supervises the learning of the view-consistent self-representation affinity matrix; then, More >

Abstract Towards optimal k-prototype discovery, k-means-like algorithms give us inspirations of central samples collection, yet the unstable seed samples selection, the hypothesis of a circle-like pattern, and the unknown K are still challenges, particularly for non-predetermined data patterns. We propose an adaptive k-prototype clustering method (kProtoClust) which launches cluster exploration with a sketchy division of K clusters and finds evidence for splitting and merging. On behalf of a group of data samples, support vectors and outliers from the perspective of support vector data description are not the appropriate candidates for prototypes, while inner samples become the first candidates for… More >

Abstract Long-term petroleum production forecasting is essential for the effective development and management of oilfields. Due to its ability to extract complex patterns, deep learning has gained popularity for production forecasting. However, existing deep learning models frequently overlook the selective utilization of information from other production wells, resulting in suboptimal performance in long-term production forecasting across multiple wells. To achieve accurate long-term petroleum production forecast, we propose a spatial-geological perception graph convolutional neural network (SGP-GCN) that accounts for the temporal, spatial, and geological dependencies inherent in petroleum production. Utilizing the attention mechanism, the SGP-GCN effectively captures… More >
