Wind speed affects aviation performance, clean energy production, and other applications. By accurately predicting wind speed, operational delays and accidents can be avoided, while the efficiency of wind energy production can also be increased. This paper initially overviews the definition, characteristics, sensors capable of measuring the feature, and the relationship between this feature and wind speed for all Quality Indicators (QIs). Subsequently, the feature importance of each QI relevant to wind-speed prediction is assessed, and all QIs are employed to predict horizontal wind speed. In addition, we conduct a comparison between the performance of traditional point-wise machine learning models and temporally correlated deep learning ones. The results demonstrate that the Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) neural network yielded the highest level of accuracy across three metrics. Additionally, the newly proposed set of QIs outperformed the previously utilised QIs to a significant degree.

The principle of system resilience is its ability to withstand disruptions and maintain an equilibrium state. In urban network systems, adaptive traffic signal control (ATSC) has been an effective countermeasure to mitigate traffic flow disturbance and improve resilience. This research has explored the usage of a decentralised advantage actor‐critic (a2c) algorithm‐based ATSC in mitigating disruptions, particularly nonrecurring congestion caused by car accidents. A reward function has also been proposed, combining deduced resilience metric, safety indicator time to collision (TTC) and system performance. A virtual simulation environment was created using simulation of urban mobility (SUMO) to facilitate the evaluation of the proposed approach. In the grid simulation environment, an overall 5.8% improvement is achieved, exceeding benchmark algorithms in three metrics, especially performance with a margin of over 5.2%. Robustness against different levels of car accidents are proven as well. Further evaluation is also implemented based on a real‐world case study and demonstrates an improvement of 20.08%, highlighting the correlation of proposed method’s efficiency on the traffic flow rate and road structure.
