Abstract Traffic holographic perception refers to the real-time, high-fidelity, and multi-dimensional sensing of traffic states through the fusion of heterogeneous sensors, including cameras, radars, and connected vehicle data. The multi-source perception data obtained thereby can provide a complete digital representation of the road network for the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). However, sensors are vulnerable to environmental interference, which can result in data loss at specific points or along arterial highways for certain periods, potentially undermining system safety and decision-making reliability. To address these challenges, a deep learning method based on Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) and Gated… More >

Abstract Despite deep learning’s high precision in emotion identification, centralized training is associated with privacy and scalability concerns. The privacy-preserving federated learning model, Federated Hybrid-Optimized Emotion Recognition (Fed-HOER), introduced in this paper is an auto-tuning hyperparameters optimizer based on a hybrid Dung Beetle Optimizer-Fick’s Law Algorithm (DBO-FLA) optimizer. The global and local searches are optimized at two levels, and validation loss is minimized by 22%–24% without sharing raw data. The experiments on Extended Cohn–Kanade (CK+), Japanese Female Facial Expressions (JAFFE), and Karolinska Directed Emotional Faces (KDEF) exhibit a high generalization rate with a mean accuracy of More >

Abstract The identification of the traveling wave head is an important factor affecting the accuracy of fault traveling wave positioning. In practice, in addition to the attenuation of traveling wave amplitude and rising speed caused by distribution line factors, various traveling wave sensors can also cause transmission distortion of high-frequency traveling wave signals, which in turn affects the calibration of traveling wave arrival time and the accuracy of fault distance measurement. The inversion technology of sensor transmission characteristics using analytical methods has limited ability to reflect factors such as stray capacitance and sensor differences. In comparison,… More >

Abstract Accurate characterization of live load histories remains critical for structural safety and efficient design; however, traditional codes often overestimate in-service loads. This study introduced an AI-driven framework integrating YOLOv8 object detection and DeepFace gender classification with continuous video surveillance to monitor live loads in academic buildings. Gender classification used local anthropometric data (77 kg males, 61 kg females) for precise load estimation, with privacy ensured via local processing and anonymized metadata only. Observed peaks were substantially below Eurocode and IBC provisions, confirming code conservatism. Uncertainty propagation from detector errors (recall 0.57, ±0.02 Kn/m²) minimally impacted projections. More >

Abstract Accurate crude oil price forecasting is critical for global economic stability but remains an exceptionally challenging task due to the data’s complex, non-linear, and non-stationary nature. Deep learning models like LSTMs are widely favored. However, the dominant research trend currently focuses on increasingly complex hybrid and ensemble architectures. These models often suffer from high computational overhead, intricate tuning processes, and potential overfitting, raising critical questions about their necessity. In this paper, we challenged the assumption that complexity is required for high performance by proposing and evaluating a streamlined 1D-CNN model. We conducted a comprehensive evaluation… More >

Abstract Road-surface identification is important for transportation monitoring and maintenance. However, this task is challenging due to the complexity of vibration signals, feature overlap among different surface types, and variations in real-world operating conditions. These challenges become more significant in time-series classification, where models must achieve high accuracy while remaining computationally efficient and suitable for low-cost hardware. This study investigates the design and evaluation of an automatic road-surface classification system using motion data collected from inertial sensors mounted on a vehicle, including accelerometers and gyroscopes. The system segments synchronized IMU signals into fixed-length windows and assigns… More >

Abstract The rapid growth of networked systems and the increasing diversity of cyberattack behaviors have posed significant challenges to intrusion detection, particularly in scenarios characterized by high-dimensional features and severe class imbalance. Conventional detection approaches based on handcrafted rules or shallow representations often exhibit limited robustness under such conditions. To address these issues, this paper presents a hybrid deep learning framework for network intrusion detection that integrates complementary feature learning mechanisms within a dual-branch architecture. Specifically, a Transformer branch is employed to model long-range temporal dependencies in network traffic, while a convolutional neural network branch (CNN)… More >

Abstract Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images have high spatial resolution and are cost-effective to acquire. UAV platforms are easy to control, and the prevalence of UAVs has led to an emerging field of remote sensing technologies. However, the details of high-resolution images often lead to fragmented classification results and significant scale differences between objects. Additionally, distinguishing between objects on the basis of shape or textural characteristics can be difficult. Conventional classification methods based on pixels and objects can indeed be ineffective at detecting complex and fine-scale land use and land cover (LULC) features. Therefore, in this More >

Abstract This study proposes an Adaptive Pooling method based on an alpha (α) parameter to enhance the effectiveness and stability of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in image classification tasks. Conventional pooling techniques, such as max pooling and average pooling, often exhibit limited adaptability when applied to datasets with heterogeneous distributions and varying levels of complexity. To address this limitation, the proposed approach introduces an α parameter ranging from 0 to 1 that continuously regulates the contribution of maximum-based and average-based pooling operations in a unified and flexible framework. The proposed method is evaluated using two benchmark… More >
