Traffic prediction is essential for advanced traffic planning, design, management, and network sustainability. Current prediction methods are mostly offline, which fail to capture the real-time variation of traffic flows. This paper establishes a sustainable online generative adversarial network (GAN) by combining bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) and a convolutional neural network (CNN) as the generative model and discriminative model, respectively, to keep learning with continuous feedback. BiLSTM constantly generates temporal candidate flows based on valuable memory units, and CNN screens out the best spatial prediction by returning the feedback gradient to BiLSTM. Multi-dimensional indicators are selected to map the multi-view fusion local trend for accurate prediction. To balance computing efficiency and accuracy, different batch sizes are pre-tested and allocated to different lanes. The models are trained with rectified adaptive moment estimation (RAdam) by dividing the dataset into the training and testing sets with a rolling time-domain scheme. In comparison with the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), BiLSTM, generating adversarial network for traffic flow (GAN-TF), and generating adversarial network for non-signal traffic (GAN-NST), the proposed improved generating adversarial network for traffic flow (IGAN-TF) successfully generates more accurate and stable flows and performs better.

Human eye is affected by the different eye diseases including choroidal neovascularization (CNV), diabetic macular edema (DME) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This work aims to design an artificial intelligence (AI) based clinical decision support system for eye disease detection and classification to assist the ophthalmologists more effectively detecting and classifying CNV, DME and drusen by using the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images depicting different tissues. The methodology used for designing this system involves different deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) models and long short-term memory networks (LSTM). The best image captioning model is selected after performance analysis by comparing nine different image captioning systems for assisting ophthalmologists to detect and classify eye diseases. The quantitative data analysis results obtained for the image captioning models designed using DenseNet201 with LSTM have superior performance in terms of overall accuracy of 0.969, positive predictive value of 0.972 and true-positive rate of 0.969using OCT images enhanced by the generative adversarial network (GAN). The corresponding performance values for the Xception with LSTM image captioning models are 0.969, 0.969 and 0.938, respectively. Thus, these two models yield superior performance and have potential to assist ophthalmologists in making optimal diagnostic decision.

In traditional music composition, the composer has a special knowledge of music and combines emotion and creative experience to create music. As computer technology has evolved, various music-related technologies have been developed. To create new music, a considerable amount of time is required. Therefore, a system is required that can automatically compose music from input music. This study proposes a novel melody composition method that enhanced the original generative adversarial network (GAN) model based on individual bars. Two discriminators were used to form the enhanced GAN model: one was a long short-term memory (LSTM) model that was used to ensure correlation between the bars, and the other was a convolutional neural network (CNN) model that was used to ensure rationality of the bar structure. Experiments were conducted using bar encoding and the enhanced GAN model to compose a new melody and evaluate the quality of the composition melody. In the evaluation method, the TFIDF algorithm was also used to calculate the structural differences between four types of musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) file (i.e., randomly composed melody, melody composed by the original GAN, melody composed by the proposed method, and the real melody). Using the TFIDF algorithm, the structures of the melody composed were compared by the proposed method with the real melody and the structure of the traditional melody was compared with the structure of the real melody. The experimental results showed that the melody composed by the proposed method had more similarity with real melody structure with a difference of only 8% than that of the traditional melody structure.

Accurate predictions of remaining useful life (RUL) of important components play a crucial role in system reliability, which is the basis of prognostics and health management (PHM). This paper proposed an integrated deep learning approach for RUL prediction of a turbofan engine by integrating an autoencoder (AE) with a deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DCGAN). In the pretraining stage, the reconstructed data of the AE not only participate in its error reconstruction but also take part in the DCGAN parameter training as the generated data of the DCGAN. Through double-error reconstructions, the capability of feature extraction is enhanced, and high-level abstract information is obtained. In the fine-tuning stage, a long short-term memory (LSTM) network is used to extract the sequential information from the features to predict the RUL. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified on the NASA commercial modular aero-propulsion system simulation (C-MAPSS) dataset. The superiority of the proposed method is demonstrated via excellent prediction performance and comparisons with other existing state-of-the-art prognostics. The results of this study suggest that the proposed data-driven prognostic method offers a new and promising prediction approach and an efficient feature extraction scheme.

Vehicles’ trajectory prediction is a topic with growing interest in recent years, as there are applications in several domains ranging from autonomous driving to traffic congestion prediction and urban planning. Predicting trajectories starting from Floating Car Data (FCD) is a complex task that comes with different challenges, namely Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) interaction, Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) interaction, multimodality, and generalizability. These challenges, especially, have not been completely explored by state-of-the-art works. In particular, multimodality and generalizability have been neglected the most, and this work attempts to fill this gap by proposing and defining new datasets, metrics, and methods to help understand and predict vehicle trajectories. We propose and compare Deep Learning models based on Long Short-Term Memory and Generative Adversarial Network architectures; in particular, our GAN-3 model can be used to generate multiple predictions in multimodal scenarios. These approaches are evaluated with our newly proposed error metrics N-ADE and N-FDE, which normalize some biases in the standard Average Displacement Error (ADE) and Final Displacement Error (FDE) metrics. Experiments have been conducted using newly collected datasets in four large Italian cities (Rome, Milan, Naples, and Turin), considering different trajectory lengths to analyze error growth over a larger number of time-steps. The results prove that, although LSTM-based models are superior in unimodal scenarios, generative models perform best in those where the effects of multimodality are higher. Space-time and geographical analysis are performed, to prove the suitability of the proposed methodology for real cases and management services.

The purpose of seismic data processing in nuclear explosion monitoring is to accurately and reliably detect seismic or explosion events from complex ambient noises. Accurate detection and identification of seismic phases are of great significance to the detection and parameter estimation of seismic events. In seismic phase identification, discriminating between noise signals and real seismic signals is essential. Accurate identification of noise signals helps reduce false detections, improves the accuracy of automatic bulletins, and relieves the workload of analysts. At the same time, in seismic exploration, the prime objective in data processing is also to enhance the signal and suppress the noises. In this study, we combined a generative adversarial network (GAN) with a long short-term memory network (LSTM) to discriminate between noise and phases in seismic waveforms recorded by the International Monitoring System (IMS) array MKAR. First, using the beamforming data of the array as the input, we obtained the signal features of seismic phases through the learning of the GAN discriminator network. Then, we input these features and trained the joint network on mixed seismic phase and noise data, and successfully classified seismic phases and noise signals with a recall of 95.28% and 97.64%, respectively. Based on this model, we established a real-time data processing method, then validated the effectiveness of this method with real 2019 data of MKAR. We also verified whether improved noise signal identification improves the quality of phase association and event detection.

The speech emotion recognition based on the deep networks on small samples is often a very challenging problem in natural language processing. The massive parameters of a deep network are much difficult to be trained reliably on small-quantity speech samples. Aiming at this problem, we propose a new method through the systematical cooperation of Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM). In this method, it utilizes the adversarial training of GAN’s generator and discriminator on speech spectrogram images to implement sufficient sample augmentation. A six-layer convolution neural network (CNN), followed in series by a two-layer LSTM, is designed to extract features from speech spectrograms. For accelerating the training of networks, the parameters of discriminator are transferred to our feature extractor. By the sample augmentation, a well-trained feature extraction network and an efficient classifier could be achieved. The tests and comparisons on two publicly available datasets, i.e., EMO-DB and IEMOCAP, show that our new method is effective, and it is often superior to some state-of-the-art methods.

To improve the diversity and quality of sound mimicry of electric automobile engines, a generative adversarial network (GAN) model was used to construct an active sound production model for electric automobiles. The structure of each layer in the network in this model and the size of its convolution kernel were designed. The gradient descent in network training was optimized using the adaptive moment estimation (Adam) algorithm. To demonstrate the quality difference of the generated samples from different input signals, two GAN models with different inputs were constructed. The experimental results indicate that the model can accurately learn the characteristic distributions of raw audio signals. Results from a human ear auditory test show that the generated audio samples mimicked the real samples well, and a leave-one-out (LOO) test show that the diversity of the samples generated from the raw audio signals was higher than that of samples generated from a two-dimensional spectrogram.
