Using traditional neural network algorithms to adapt to high-resolution range profile (HRRP) target recognition is a complex problem in the current radar target recognition field. Under the premise of in-depth analysis of the long short-term memory (LSTM) network structure and algorithm, this study uses an attention model to extract data from the sequence. We build a dual parallel sequence network model for rapid classification and recognition and to effectively improve the initial LSTM network structure while reducing network layers. Through demonstration by designing control experiments, the target recognition performance of HRRP is demonstrated. The experimental results show that the bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) algorithm has obvious advantages over the template matching method and initial LSTM networks. The improved BiLSTM algorithm proposed in this study has significantly improved the radar HRRP target recognition accuracy, which enhanced the effectiveness of the improved algorithm.

Radar automatic target recognition is a critical research topic in radar signal processing. Radar high-resolution range profiles (HRRPs) describe the radar characteristics of a target, that is, the characteristics of the target that is reflected by the microwave emitted by the radar are implicit in it. In conventional radar HRRP target recognition methods, prior knowledge of the radar is necessary for target recognition. The application of deep-learning methods in HRRPs began in recent years, and most of them are convolutional neural network (CNN) and its variants, and recurrent neural network (RNN) and the combination of RNN and CNN are relatively rarely used. The continuous pulses emitted by the radar hit the ship target, and the received HRRPs of the reflected wave seem to provide the geometric characteristics of the ship target structure. When the radar pulses are transmitted to the ship, different positions on the ship have different structures, so each range cell of the echo reflected in the HRRP will be different, and adjacent structures should also have continuous relational characteristics. This inspired the authors to propose a model to concatenate the features extracted by the two-channel CNN with bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM). Various filters are used in two-channel CNN to extract deep features and fed into the following BiLSTM. The BiLSTM model can effectively capture long-distance dependence, because BiLSTM can be trained to retain critical information and achieve two-way timing dependence. Therefore, the two-way spatial relationship between adjacent range cells can be used to obtain excellent recognition performance. The experimental results revealed that the proposed method is robust and effective for ship recognition.

Accurate and reliable fault diagnosis is one of the key and difficult issues in mechanical condition monitoring. In recent years, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been widely used in mechanical condition monitoring, which is also a great breakthrough in the field of bearing fault diagnosis. However, CNN can only extract local features of signals. The model accuracy and generalization of the original vibration signals are very low in the process of vibration signal processing only by CNN. Based on the above problems, this paper improves the traditional convolution layer of CNN, and builds the learning module (local feature learning block, LFLB) of the local characteristics. At the same time, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is introduced into the network, which is used to extract the global features. This paper proposes the new neural network—improved CNN-LSTM network. The extracted deep feature is used for fault classification. The improved CNN-LSTM network is applied to the processing of the vibration signal of the faulty bearing collected by the bearing failure laboratory of Inner Mongolia University of science and technology. The results show that the accuracy of the improved CNN-LSTM network on the same batch test set is 98.75%, which is about 24% higher than that of the traditional CNN. The proposed network is applied to the bearing data collection of Western Reserve University under the condition that the network parameters remain unchanged. The experiment shows that the improved CNN-LSTM network has better generalization than the traditional CNN.

This paper presents a new intelligent islanding detection scheme (IIDS) based on empirical wavelet transform (EWT) and long short-term memory (LSTM) network to identify islanding events in microgrids. The concept of EWT is extended to extract features from three-phase signals. First, the three-phase voltage signals sampled at the terminal of targeted distributed energy resource (DER) or point of common coupling (PCC) are decomposed into empirical modes/frequency subbands using EWT. Then, instantaneous amplitudes and instantaneous frequencies of the three-phases at different frequency subbands are combined, and various statistical features are calculated. Finally, the EWT-based features along with the three-phase voltage signals are input to the LSTM network to differentiate between non-islanding and islanding events. To assess the efficacy of the proposed IIDS, extensive simulations are performed on an IEC microgrid and an IEEE 34-node system. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed IIDS in terms of non-detection zone (NDZ), computational time, detection accuracy, and robustness against noisy measurement. Furthermore, comparisons with existing intelligent methods and different LSTM architectures demonstrate that the proposed IIDS offers higher reliability by significantly reducing the NDZ and stands robust against measurements uncertainty.

Ground penetrating radar (GPR), as a non-invasive instrument, has been widely used in the civil field. The interpretation of GPR data plays a vital role in underground infrastructures to transfer raw data to the interested information, such as diameter. However, the diameter identification of objects in GPR B-scans is a tedious and labor-intensive task, which limits the further application in the field environment. The paper proposes a deep learning-based scheme to solve the issue. First, an adaptive target region detection (ATRD) algorithm is proposed to extract the regions from B-scans that contain hyperbolic signatures. Then, a Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) framework is developed that integrates Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network to extract hyperbola region features. It transfers the task of diameter identification into a task of hyperbola region classification. Experimental results conducted on both simulated and field datasets demonstrate that the proposed scheme has a promising performance for diameter identification. The CNN-LSTM framework achieves an accuracy of 99.5% on simulated datasets and 92.5% on field datasets.

An enhanced architecture of recurrent neural network based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is suggested in this paper for predicting the microclimate inside the greenhouse through its time series data. The microclimate inside the greenhouse largely affected by the external weather variations and it has a great impact on the greenhouse crops and its production. Therefore, it is a massive importance to predict the microclimate inside greenhouse as a preceding stage for accurate design of a control system that could fulfill the requirements of suitable environment for the plants and crop managing. The LSTM network is trained and tested by the temperatures and relative humidity data measured inside the greenhouse utilizing the mathematical greenhouse model with the outside weather data over 27 days. To evaluate the prediction accuracy of the suggested LSTM network, different measurements, such as Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE), are calculated and compared to those of conventional networks in references. The simulation results of LSTM network for forecasting the temperature and relative humidity inside greenhouse outperform over those of the traditional methods. The prediction results of temperature and humidity inside greenhouse in terms of RMSE approximately are 0.16 and 0.62 and in terms of MAE are 0.11 and 0.4, respectively, for both of them.
