Authors: Hongteng Wang Hongteng Wang , Hongteng Wang Keming Yu , Keming Yu Kexin Huang , Kexin Huang Liyong Ma
Published: August 2024

Hydropower is the green energy with the most significant comprehensive emission reduction benefits in the whole life cycle. The signals of hydropower equipment include fault information, and it can assist the fault diagnosis of hydropower units. However, most of the existing methods lack the quantitative evaluation of the equipment degradation. A quantitative evaluation method of degradation for hydropower equipment is proposed. Variable modal decomposition (VMD) is employed to obtain decomposed simple signal. The singular values and sample entropy of the intrinsic mode functions are obtained and combined into a feature vector. Jenson-Shannon divergence is adopted to evaluate the degradation of hydropower equipment by comparing the current feature vector with the normal state feature vector. Experimental results show that this method can provide degradation evaluation information. The proposed method can provide not only quantitative indicators of equipment degradation, but also early warning of equipment degradation than the usual anomaly detection methods.

Authors: Yuhong Zhao Yuhong Zhao , Yuhong Zhao Xiangming Ni , Xiangming Ni Yue Yao , Yue Yao Peng Mei
Published: August 2024

To accurately and efficiently capture the topological and attribute information of nodes and apply them to the link prediction task, this paper proposes a Dual Channel Graph Convolution Link Prediction (DC-GCN). DC-GCN constructs a dual channel through the graph convolution network. DC-GCN can learn both topological embeddings and attribute embeddings of nodes; it introduces an attention mechanism to learn the weights of each embedding adaptively and then performs weighted fusion to obtain the final embedding representation of nodes. Finally, the Hadamard distance of nodes is used to construct the link representation between nodes, and the probability of linking between nodes is obtained by training a logistic regression function. By comparing and analyzing many different types of link prediction algorithms, the results show that this algorithm has greater advantages in both AUC and Precision evaluation metrics, so DC-GCN can effectively combine node attributes and structural information of the network to improve the accuracy of the link prediction algorithm.

 
Attention Mechanism Based Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolution Network for Traffic Prediction
Authors: Wenjuan Xiao Wenjuan Xiao , Wenjuan Xiao Xiaoming Wang
Published: August 2024

Considering the complexity of traffic systems and the challenges brought by various factors in traffic prediction, we propose a spatial-temporal graph convolutional neural network based on attention mechanism (AMSTGCN) to adapt to these dynamic changes and improve prediction accuracy. The model combines the spatial feature extraction capability of graph attention network (GAT) and the dynamic correlation learning capability of attention mechanism. By introducing the attention mechanism, the network can adaptively focus on the dependencies between different time steps and different nodes, effectively mining the dynamic spatial-temporal relationships in the traffic data. Specifically, we adopt an improved version of graph attention network (GAT_v2) in the spatial dimension, which allows the model to capture more complex dynamic spatial correlations. Furthermore, in the temporal dimension, we combine gated recurrent unit (GRU) structure with an attention mechanism to enhance the model’s ability to process sequential data and predict traffic flow changes over prolonged periods. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, extensive experiments were conducted on public traffic datasets, where AMSTGCN was compared with five different benchmark models. Experimental results demonstrate that AMSTGCN exhibits superior performance on both short-term and long-term prediction tasks and outperforms other models on multiple evaluation metrics, validating its potential and practical value in the field of traffic prediction.

Authors: Shuiping Ni Shuiping Ni , Shuiping Ni Wendi Wang , Wendi Wang Mingfu Zhu , Mingfu Zhu Xinliang Ma , Xinliang Ma Yizhe Zhang
Published: August 2024

Knowledge distillation, one of the most prominent methods in model compression, has successfully balanced small model sizes and high performance. However, it has been observed that knowledge distillation predominantly focuses on acquiring knowledge concealed within the dataset and the external knowledge imparted by the teacher. In contrast, self-distillation concerns itself with the utilization of internal network knowledge. Neither approach fails to fully harness the potential of knowledge. Therefore, this paper introduces the combined knowledge c framework that combines knowledge distillation with self-distillation. Within this framework, we introduce multiple shallow classifiers, combined with an attention module, to exploit internal and external knowledge. To enhance the efficiency with which the network utilizes knowledge. Experimental results demonstrate that by comprehensively leveraging network knowledge, distillation effectiveness can be enhanced, resulting in further improvements in network accuracy. Additionally, we applied the framework to lightweight neural networks with group convolution, the framework continues to perform exceptionally well.

Rice, as one of the world’s major staple crops, is highly susceptible to various factors such as extreme weather conditions, differences in cultivation types, and the diversity of varieties. Rice crops are increasingly threatened by various pests and diseases, particularly by “double-migration pest” (Brown planthopper and Rice leaf roller), which have shown a tendency for severe infestations. The current rice industry faces widespread issues of excessive pest control, leading to pesticide residue exceeding safe limits, causing environmental pollution in farmlands, and posing a threat to food security to some extent. This paper focuses on Brown planthopper and Rice leaf roller in Hunan Province, proposing a pest prediction method based on GCN-AGRU using multidimensional data collected from multiple pest monitoring stations in Hunan. This method considers the mutual influence of meteorological conditions and pest occurrences in various counties and cities, constructing a graph structure that reflects the spatial relationships between monitoring stations. By calculating the distance weights between stations, the model effectively identifies the spatial dependencies of pest occurrences. Additionally, GRU is introduced to enhance the ability to extract temporal sequence features, and an attention mechanism is employed to identify important features. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed GCN-AGRU prediction method achieves high accuracy and reliability in predicting pest trends over multiple days.

Published: August 2024

The co-abuse of nicotine, alcohol, and marijuana presents complex health and behavioral challenges due to their diverse effects on the central nervous system. This study investigates the interactions between these substances using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model organism, focusing on behavioral changes such as swimming coordination, anxiety, and escape responses. Nicotine, alcohol, and marijuana tea extract (MTE) were administered to zebrafish, and their effects were analyzed through various behavioral assays, including total distance traveled (TDT), discrete swim velocity (DSV), and caudal fin flickering (CFF). Results revealed that nicotine treatment increased swimming speed and escape behavior while reducing swim coordination. Alcohol showed dose-dependent effects: low concentrations reduced anxiety and increased activity, whereas higher concentrations led to sedation and impaired coordination. MTE treatment resulted in heightened anxiety and reduced activity at high doses, likely due to the psychoactive effects of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Co-treatment studies indicated complex interactions: nicotine combined with low alcohol concentrations exacerbated anxiety, while higher alcohol doses resulted in reduced escape behavior and coordination. Nicotine's impact was partially mitigated by MTE, which shifted TDT and DSV patterns to lower velocities. CFF analysis showed that nicotine increased frequency and amplitude of fin flickering, which was modulated by alcohol and MTE in a concentration-dependent manner. These findings highlight how nicotine, alcohol, and marijuana interact to influence zebrafish behavior, providing insights into the broader implications for understanding substance abuse. The study underscores the importance of considering combined substance use in therapeutic strategies and behavioral research, revealing how such interactions can modulate or mitigate individual substance effects.

The current research article gives a detailed analysis of the topic of the WTO’s DSM by exploring the trends, challenges, and prospects of the DSM. The evolution process of the DSM is discussed with regard to the prominent trends explaining the gradual transformation of the instrument in the course of the global trade evolution. To that end, the article goes deep into exploring different difficulties that the DSM is currently experiencing, namely, the Appellate Body crisis, an increase in the time it takes to solve disputes and compliance. Specific measures that have been proposed are called into question, which relate to the reform of the Appellate Body, curbing backlog issues, and increasing the transparency of DSM actions. Evolutions of the selected trends are evident in the analysis of attempts to improve the DSM in line with modern trade conflict realities. Another frequent topic discussed in the course of the research can be named as transparency issues of DSM proceedings. This article covers several aspects important for openness, namely documents’ availability, open and clear hearings, advanced notification, and clear statement of the decision made. Such transparency-boosting measures are in consonance with the endeavor of the WTO to become more responsible and inclusive in resolving disputes. Thus, the identification of an independent review mechanism and learning programs targeting the actors involved in capacity-building provide additional grounds for the evolution of the DSM. Thus, this research article sums up the tendencies, threats, and opportunities that define the development of the WTO DSM. This way, the article outlined challenges that need to be resolved and opportunities offered by suggested reforms to consolidate a more effective DSM which will continue to address the intricacies of global trade while maintaining the efficiency of the multilateral trading system.

The variables used to measure corporate governance are: board size (BBS), board composition (BOC), board expertise (BOP) and Board Gender Diversity (BGD) while regressed, and financial report timeliness (FRT). The Hausman test evidenced that, the random effect model is the most appropriate model for the study. The study reported that board size has a negative significant effect on financial report timeliness while has a positive insignificant effect on financial report timeliness (FRT). Both board gender diversity and board expertise have positive effect on financial report timeliness (FRT). Hence, board expertise and board gender diversity improves financial report timeliness. Consequently, shareholders of the sampled firms should to elect gender diverse boards that have the right balance between men and women.

Perturb and observe (P&O) is a well-known maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm that is used in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to increase its efficiency. However, as the PV system uses solar irradiance and temperature for making electric power, the fast change of these two affects the performance of P&O and the efficiency of the PV system. Thus, the P&O algorithm fails to detect maximum power point (MPP) if temperature and irradiance change quickly. Therefore, this paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) based P&O algorithm of MPPT controller for a solar PV system to solve the issues mentioned earlier. The utilization of the proposed ANFIS in the P&O algorithm can track the fast changes in solar irradiance and temperature to extract the maximum power from the solar PV panel. Comparative analysis has been done on MATLAB/Simulink software for both the traditional P&O and the proposed ANFIS-based P&O algorithm to show the effectiveness of the proposed MPPT controller.
