An accurate dam deformation prediction model is vital to a dam safety monitoring system, as it helps assess and manage dam risks. Most traditional dam deformation prediction algorithms ignore the interpretation and evaluation of variables and lack qualitative measures. This paper proposes a data processing framework that uses a long short-term memory (LSTM) model coupled with an attention mechanism to predict the deformation response of a dam structure. First, the random forest (RF) model is introduced to assess the relative importance of impact factors and screen input variables. Secondly, the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) method is used to identify and filter the equipment based abnormal values to reduce the random error in the measurements. Finally, the coupled model is used to focus on important factors in the time dimension in order to obtain more accurate nonlinear prediction results. The results of the case study show that, of all tested methods, the proposed coupled method performed best. In addition, it was found that temperature and water level both have significant impacts on dam deformation and can serve as reliable metrics for dam management.

Traffic prediction is based on modeling the complex non-linear spatiotemporal traffic dynamics in road network. In recent years, Long Short-Term Memory has been applied to traffic prediction, achieving better performance. The existing Long Short-Term Memory methods for traffic prediction have two drawbacks: they do not use the departure time through the links for traffic prediction, and the way of modeling long-term dependence in time series is not direct in terms of traffic prediction. Attention mechanism is implemented by constructing a neural network according to its task and has recently demonstrated success in a wide range of tasks. In this paper, we propose an Long Short-Term Memory-based method with attention mechanism for travel time prediction. We present the proposed model in a tree structure. The proposed model substitutes a tree structure with attention mechanism for the unfold way of standard Long Short-Term Memory to construct the depth of Long Short-Term Memory and modeling long-term dependence. The attention mechanism is over the output layer of each Long Short-Term Memory unit. The departure time is used as the aspect of the attention mechanism and the attention mechanism integrates departure time into the proposed model. We use AdaGrad method for training the proposed model. Based on the datasets provided by Highways England, the experimental results show that the proposed model can achieve better accuracy than the Long Short-Term Memory and other baseline methods. The case study suggests that the departure time is effectively employed by using attention mechanism.

Text summarization (TS) is considered one of the most difficult tasks in natural language processing (NLP). It is one of the most important challenges that stand against the modern computer system’s capabilities with all its new improvement. Many papers and research studies address this task in literature but are being carried out in extractive summarization, and few of them are being carried out in abstractive summarization, especially in the Arabic language due to its complexity. In this paper, an abstractive Arabic text summarization system is proposed, based on a sequence-to-sequence model. This model works through two components, encoder and decoder. Our aim is to develop the sequence-to-sequence model using several deep artificial neural networks to investigate which of them achieves the best performance. Different layers of Gated Recurrent Units (GRU), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) have been used to develop the encoder and the decoder. In addition, the global attention mechanism has been used because it provides better results than the local attention mechanism. Furthermore, AraBERT preprocess has been applied in the data preprocessing stage that helps the model to understand the Arabic words and achieves state-of-the-art results. Moreover, a comparison between the skip-gram and the continuous bag of words (CBOW) word2Vec word embedding models has been made. We have built these models using the Keras library and run-on Google Colab Jupiter notebook to run seamlessly. Finally, the proposed system is evaluated through ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, ROUGE-L, and BLEU evaluation metrics. The experimental results show that three layers of BiLSTM hidden states at the encoder achieve the best performance. In addition, our proposed system outperforms the other latest research studies. Also, the results show that abstractive summarization models that use the skip-gram word2Vec model outperform the models that use the CBOW word2Vec model.

Image paragraph generation is the task of producing a coherent story (usually a paragraph) that describes the visual content of an image. The problem nevertheless is not trivial especially when there are multiple descriptive and diverse gists to be considered for paragraph generation, which often happens in real images. A valid question is how to encapsulate such gists/topics that are worthy of mention from an image, and then describe the image from one topic to another but holistically with a coherent structure. In this paper, we present a new design --- Convolutional Auto-Encoding (CAE) that purely employs convolutional and deconvolutional auto-encoding framework for topic modeling on the region-level features of an image. Furthermore, we propose an architecture, namely CAE plus Long Short-Term Memory (dubbed as CAE-LSTM), that novelly integrates the learnt topics in support of paragraph generation. Technically, CAE-LSTM capitalizes on a two-level LSTM-based paragraph generation framework with attention mechanism. The paragraph-level LSTM captures the inter-sentence dependency in a paragraph, while sentence-level LSTM is to generate one sentence which is conditioned on each learnt topic. Extensive experiments are conducted on Stanford image paragraph dataset, and superior results are reported when comparing to state-of-the-art approaches. More remarkably, CAE-LSTM increases CIDEr performance from 20.93% to 25.15%.

Monitoring people’s blood pressure can effectively prevent blood pressure-related diseases. Therefore, providing a convenient and comfortable approach can effectively help patients in monitoring blood pressure. In this study, an attention mechanism-based convolutional long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network is proposed to easily estimate blood pressure. To easily and comfortably estimate blood pressure, electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) signals are acquired. To precisely represent the characteristics of ECG and PPG signals, the signals in the time and frequency domain are selected as the inputs of the proposed NN structure. To automatically extract the features, the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are adopted as the first part of neural networks. To identify the meaningful features, the attention mechanism is used in the second part of neural networks. To model the characteristic of time series, the long short-term memory (LSTM) is adopted in the third part of neural networks. To integrate the information of previous neural networks, the fully connected networks are used to estimate blood pressure. The experimental results show that the proposed approach outperforms CNN and CNN-LSTM and complies with the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation standard.
