Abstract With the increasing complexity of industrial automation, planetary gearboxes play a vital role in large-scale equipment transmission systems, directly impacting operational efficiency and safety. Traditional maintenance strategies often struggle to accurately predict the degradation process of equipment, leading to excessive maintenance costs or potential failure risks. However, existing prediction methods based on statistical models are difficult to adapt to nonlinear degradation processes. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel condition-based maintenance framework for planetary gearboxes. A comprehensive full-lifecycle degradation experiment was conducted to collect raw vibration signals, which were then processed using a… More >

Abstract Credit card fraud is one of the primary sources of operational risk in banks, and accurate prediction of fraudulent credit card transactions is essential to minimize banks’ economic losses. Two key issues are faced in credit card fraud detection research, i.e., data category imbalance and data drift. However, the oversampling algorithm used in current research suffers from excessive noise, and the Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM) based temporal model suffers from gradient dispersion, which can lead to loss of model performance. To address the above problems, a credit card fraud detection method based on Random… More >

Abstract Monitoring the condition of road infrastructure is crucial for maintaining its structural integrity and ensuring safe transportation. This study proposes a deep learning framework based on Temporal Convolutional Networks (TCN) integrated with Adaptive Parametric Rectified Linear Unit (APReLU) to predict future road subbase strain trends. Our model leverages time-series strain data collected from embedded triaxial sensors within a national highway, spanning August 2021 to June 2022, to forecast strain dynamics critical for proactive maintenance planning. The TCN-APReLU architecture combines dilated causal convolutions to capture long-term dependencies and APReLU activation functions to adaptively model nonlinear strain More >

Abstract EEG signals are widely used in emotion recognition due to their ability to reflect involuntary physiological responses. However, the high dimensionality of EEG signals and their continuous variability in the time-frequency plane make their analysis challenging. Therefore, advanced deep learning methods are needed to extract meaningful features and improve classification performance. This study proposes a hybrid model that integrates the Swin Transformer and Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) mechanisms for EEG-based emotion recognition. EEG signals are first converted into scalogram images using Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), and classification is performed on these images. Swin Transformer is… More >

Abstract In recent years, gait-based emotion recognition has been widely applied in the field of computer vision. However, existing gait emotion recognition methods typically rely on complete human skeleton data, and their accuracy significantly declines when the data is occluded. To enhance the accuracy of gait emotion recognition under occlusion, this paper proposes a Multi-scale Suppression Graph Convolutional Network (MS-GCN). The MS-GCN consists of three main components: Joint Interpolation Module (JI Moudle), Multi-scale Temporal Convolution Network (MS-TCN), and Suppression Graph Convolutional Network (SGCN). The JI Module completes the spatially occluded skeletal joints using the (K-Nearest Neighbors)… More >

Abstract Automatically detecting learners’ engagement levels helps to develop more effective online teaching and assessment programs, allowing teachers to provide timely feedback and make personalized adjustments based on students’ needs to enhance teaching effectiveness. Traditional approaches mainly rely on single-frame multimodal facial spatial information, neglecting temporal emotional and behavioural features, with accuracy affected by significant pose variations. Additionally, convolutional padding can erode feature maps, affecting feature extraction’s representational capacity. To address these issues, we propose a hybrid neural network architecture, the redistributing facial features and temporal convolutional network (RefEIP).
