Traditional algorithms and single predictive models often face challenges such as limited prediction accuracy and insufficient modeling capabilities for complex time-series data in fault prediction tasks. To address these issues, this paper proposes a combined prediction model based on an improved temporal convolutional network (TCN) and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM), referred to as the TCN-BiLSTM model. This model aims to enhance the reliability and accuracy of time-series fault prediction. It is designed to handle continuous processes but can also be applied to batch and hybrid processes due to its flexible architecture. First, preprocessed industrial operation data are fed into the model, and hyperparameter optimization is conducted using the Optuna framework to improve training efficiency and generalization capability. Then, the model employs an improved TCN layer and a BiLSTM layer for feature extraction and learning. The TCN layer incorporates batch normalization, an optimized activation function (Leaky ReLU), and a dropout mechanism to enhance its ability to capture multi-scale temporal features. The BiLSTM layer further leverages its bidirectional learning mechanism to model the long-term dependencies in the data, enabling effective predictions of complex fault patterns. Finally, the model outputs the prediction results after iterative optimization. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, simulation experiments were conducted to compare the TCN-BiLSTM model with mainstream prediction methods such as CNN, RNN, BiLSTM, and A-BiLSTM. The experimental results indicate that the TCN-BiLSTM model outperforms the comparison models in terms of prediction accuracy during both the modeling and forecasting stages, providing a feasible solution for time-series fault prediction.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as pivotal tools in emergency communication scenarios. In the aftermath of disasters, UAVs can be communication nodes to provide communication services for users in the area. In this paper, we establish a meticulously crafted virtual simulation environment and leverage advanced deep reinforcement learning algorithms to train UAVs agents. Notwithstanding, the development of reinforcement learning algorithms is beset with challenges such as sparse rewards and protracted training durations. To mitigate these issues, we devise an enhanced reward function aimed at bolstering training efficiency. Initially, we delineate a specific mountainous emergency communication scenario and integrate it with the particularized application of UAVs to undertake virtual simulations, constructing a realistic virtual environment. Furthermore, we introduce a supplementary shaped reward function tailored to alleviate the problem of sparse rewards. By refining the DQN algorithm and devising a reward structure grounded on potential functions, we observe marked improvements in the final evaluation metrics, substantiating the efficacy of our approach. The experimental outcomes underscore the prowess of our methodology in effectively curtailing training time while augmenting convergence rates. In summary, our work underscores the potential of leveraging sophisticated virtual environments and refined reinforcement learning techniques to optimize UAVs deployment in emergency communication contexts.
Unmanned aerial vehicle UAV has become an important tool for emergency communication. When disaster happens, the roads in the disaster area always are seriously damaged, and theground infrastructure communication facilities are damaged. Under emergency conditions, UAV can go into key areas as communication nodes to provide communication services for users in the area.But it's difficult for UAV to cover the entire disaster area and the efficient rescue time will be delayed. Therefore, how to make the UAV accurately perceive the regional situation and deployed in the right position is worth studying. In this paper, a virtual simulation environment is established reasonably and deep reinforcement learning algorithm is used to train UAV agents. At the same time, a series of problems such as sparse reward and long training time are still not solved in the development of reinforcement learning algorithms,and the reward function is designed to improve training efficiency. First of all, we set a specific mountain emergency communication scenario, and combined with the specific application of the UAV to carry out virtual simulation, and build a virtual environment. Furthermore, an additional shaped reward function is designed to address the sparse reward problem. Through the improvement of deep Q-learning network DQN algorithm and the reward design based on potential function, the final evaluation index is improved, and the effectiveness of the algorithm is verified. The experimental results demonstrate our work can effectively shorten the training time and increase convergencerate.
This paper proposes DCGAN-YOLOv8n, an integrated framework that significantly advances small-sample target detection by synergizing generative adversarial feature enhancement with multi-scale representation learning. The model’s core contribution lies in its novel adversarial feature enhancement module (AFEM), which leverages conditional generative adversarial networks to reconstruct discriminative multi-scale features while effectively mitigating mode collapse. Furthermore, the architecture incorporates a deformable multi-scale feature pyramid that dynamically fuses generated high-resolution features with hierarchical semantic representations through an attention mechanism. The proposed triple marginal constraint optimization jointly enhances intra-class compactness and inter-class separation, thereby structuring a highly discriminative feature space. Extensive experiments on the NWPU VHR-10 dataset demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, with the model achieving an mAP50 of 90.46% and an mAP50-95 of 57.06%, representing significant improvements of 4.52% and 4.08% over the baseline YOLOv8n, respectively. These results validate the framework’s effectiveness in addressing critical challenges of feature representation scarcity and cross-scale adaptation in data-limited scenarios.
