This brief paper proposes a dynamic data-driven method for stability monitoring of rotorcraft systems, where the underlying concept is built upon the principles of symbolic dynamics. The stability monitoring algorithm involves wavelet-packet-based preprocessing to remove spurious disturbances and to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the sensor time series. A quantified measure, called Instability Measure, is constructed from the processed time series data to obtain an estimate of the relative instability of the dynamic modes of interest on the rotorcraft system. The efficacy of the proposed method has been established with numerical simulations where correlations between the instability measure and the damping parameter(s) of selected dynamic mode(s) of the rotor blade are established.

Comprehensive and evidence-based countermeasures against emerging infectious diseases have become increasingly important in recent years. COVID-19 and many other infectious diseases are spread by human movement and contact, but complex transportation networks in 21 century make it difficult to predict disease spread in rapidly changing situations. It is especially challenging to estimate the network of infection transmission in the countries that the traffic and human movement data infrastructure is not yet developed. In this study, we devised a method to estimate the network of transmission of COVID-19 from the time series data of its infection and applied it to determine its spread across areas in Japan. We incorporated the effects of soft lockdowns, such as the declaration of a state of emergency, and changes in the infection network due to government-sponsored travel promotion, and predicted the spread of infection using the Tokyo Olympics as a model. The models used in this study are available online, and our data-driven infection network models are scalable, whether it be at the level of a city, town, country, or continent, and applicable anywhere in the world, as long as the time-series data of infections per region is available. These estimations of effective distance and the depiction of infectious disease networks based on actual infection data are expected to be useful in devising data-driven countermeasures against emerging infectious diseases worldwide.

A multivariate time-series forecasting has great potentials in various domains. However, it is challenging to find dependency structure among the time-series variables and appropriate time-lags for each variable, which change dynamically over time. In this study, I suggest partial correlation-based attention mechanism which overcomes the shortcomings of existing pair-wise comparisons-based attention mechanisms. Moreover, I propose data-driven series-wise multi-resolution convolutional layers to represent the input time-series data for domain agnostic learning.

Attempts to leverage operational time-series data in Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) approaches to optimize the life cycle management and Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM) of military vehicles have encountered several obstacles over decades of data collection. These obstacles have beset similar approaches on civilian ground vehicles, as well as on aircraft and other complex systems. Analysis of operational data is critical because it represents a continuous recording of the state of the system. Applying rudimentary data analytics to operational data can provide insights like fuel usage patterns or observed reliability of one vehicle or even a fleet. Monitoring trends and analyzing patterns in this data over time, however, can provide insight into the health of a vehicle, a complex system, or a fleet, predicting mean time to failure or compiling logistic or life cycle needs. Such High-Performance Data Analytics (HPDA) on operational time-series datasets has been historically difficult due to the large amount of data gathered from vehicle sensors, the lack of association between clusters observed in the data and failures or unscheduled maintenance events, and the deficiency of unsupervised learning techniques for time-series data. We present an HPDA environment and a method of discovering patterns in vehicle operational data that determines models for predicting the likelihood of imminent failure, referred to as Parameter-Based Indicators (PBIs). Our method is a data-driven approach that uses both time-series and relational maintenance data. This hybrid approach combines both supervised and unsupervised machine learning and data analytic techniques to correlate labeled, relational maintenance event data with unlabeled operational time-series data utilizing the DoD High Performance Computing (HPC) capabilities at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center. In leveraging both time-series and relational data, we demonstrate a means of fast, purely data-driven model creation that is more broadly applicable and requires less a priori information than physics informed, data-driven models. By blending these approaches, this system will be able to relate some lifecycle management goals through the workflow to generate specific PBIs that will predict failures or highlight appropriate areas of concern in individual or collective vehicle histories.

In this short note, the described step-by-step derivations of the industrial energy demand function from the production function framework and provided researchers with two specifications. Then we applied these theoretical specifications to the time series data as empirical analysis. We concluded that theories should be considered at the beginning of the empirical analyses but the data also should be allowed to speak freely. Hence, the main suggestion of this short note is that it would be a better strategy to consider the combination of theory-driven and data-driven approaches in the empirical analyses.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare five data-driven-based ML techniques to predict the time series data of Bitcoin returns, namely, alternating model tree, random forest (RF), multiple linear regression, multi-layer perceptron regression and M5 Tree algorithms. Design/methodology/approach The data used to forecast time series data of Bitcoin returns ranges from 8 July 2010 to 30 Aug 2020. This study used several predictors to predict bitcoin returns including economic policy uncertainty, equity market volatility index, S&P returns, USD/EURO exchange rates, oil and gold prices, volatilities and returns. Five statistical indexes, namely, correlation coefficient, mean absolute error, root mean square error, relative absolute error and root relative squared error are determined. The results of these metrices are used to develop colour intensity ranking. Findings Among the machine learning (ML) techniques used in this study, RF models has shown superior predictive ability for estimating the Bitcoin returns. Originality/value This study is first of its kind to use and compare ML models in the prediction of Bitcoins. More studies can be carried out by using further cryptocurrencies and other ML data-driven models in future.
