Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are currently the most viable option for energy storage systems in electric vehicle (EV) applications due to their high specific energy, falling costs, and acceptable cycle life. However, accurately predicting the parameters of complex, nonlinear battery systems remains challenging, given diverse aging mechanisms, cell-to-cell variations, and dynamic operating conditions. The states and parameters of batteries are becoming increasingly important in ubiquitous application scenarios, yet our ability to predict cell performance under realistic conditions remains limited. To address the challenge of modelling and predicting the evolution of multiphysics and multiscale battery systems, this study proposes a cloud-based AI-enhanced framework. The framework aims to achieve practical success in the co-estimation of the state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) during the system’s operational lifetime. Self-supervised transformer neural networks offer new opportunities to learn representations of observational data with multiple levels of abstraction and attention mechanisms. Coupling the cloud-edge computing framework with the versatility of deep learning can leverage the predictive ability of exploiting long-range spatio-temporal dependencies across multiple scales.

Clothing image in the e-commerce industry plays an important role in providing customers with information. This paper divides clothing images into two groups: pure clothing images and dressed clothing images. Targeting small and medium-sized clothing companies or merchants, it compares traditional machine learning and deep learning models to determine suitable models for each group. For pure clothing images, the HOG+SVM algorithm with the Gaussian kernel function obtains the highest classification accuracy of 91.32% as compared to the Small VGG network. For dressed clothing images, the CNN model obtains a higher accuracy than the HOG+SVM algorithm, with the highest accuracy rate of 69.78% for the Small VGG network. Therefore, for end-users with only ordinary computing processors, it is recommended to apply the traditional machine learning algorithm HOG+SVM to classify pure clothing images. The classification of dressed clothing images is performed using a more efficient and less computationally intensive lightweight model, such as the Small VGG network.

Accurate forecasting of time series data is essential in many fields. However, real-world time series are often characterized by noise, non-stationarity and multiscale temporal dependencies, which collectively reduce forecasting performance. To address these challenges, MultiScaleWave, a deep learning framework based on time series decomposition, is proposed for univariate forecasting. The MultiScaleWave model first applies multi-level discrete wavelet transforms to decompose the series into multiscale temporal components. Each component is modeled by a granularity-adaptive module, and the outputs are then fused to generate an informative representation for final forecasting. The MultiScaleWave model has been validated on benchmark datasets and achieves superior performance compared to competitive baselines. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and generalizability of the proposed approach.
