The accurate measurement of the PM2.5 individual exposure level is a key issue in the study of health effects. However, the lack of historical data and the minute coverage of ground monitoring points are obstacles to the study of such issues. Based on the aerosol optical depth provided by NASA, combined with ground monitoring data and meteorological data, it is an effective method to estimate the near-ground concentration of PM2.5. With the deepening of related research, the models used have developed from univariate and multivariate linear models to nonlinear models such as support vector machine, random forest model, and deep learning neural network model. Among them, the depth neural network model has better performance. However, in the existing research, the variables used are input into the same neural network together, that is, the complex relationship caused by the lag effect of features and the correlation and partial correlation between features have not been considered. The above neural network framework can not be well applied to the complex situation of atmospheric systems and the estimation accuracy of the model needs to be improved. This is the first problem that we need to be overcome. Secondly, in the missing data value processing, the existing studies mostly use single interpolation methods such as linear fitting and Kriging interpolation. However, because the time and place of data missing are complex and changeable, a single method is difficult to deal with a large area of strip and block missing data. Moreover, the linear fitting method is easy to smooth out the special data in bad weather. This is the second problem that we need to overcome. Therefore, we construct a distributed perception deep neural network model (DP-DNN) and spatiotemporal multiview interpolation module to overcome problems 1 and 2. In empirical research, based on the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei–Shandong region in 2018, we introduce 50 features such as meteorology, NDVI, spatial-temporal feature to analyze the relationship between AOD and PM2.5, and test the performance of DP-DNN and spatiotemporal multiview interpolation module. The results show that after applying the spatiotemporal multiview interpolation module, the average proportion of missing data decreases from 52.1% to 4.84%, and the relative error of the results is 27.5%. Compared with the single interpolation method, this module has obvious advantages in accuracy and level of completion. The mean absolute error, relative error, mean square error, and root mean square error of DP-DNN in time prediction are 17.7 μg/m3, 46.8%, 766.2 g2/m6, and 26.9 μg/m3, respectively, and in space prediction, they are 16.6 μg/m3, 41.8%, 691.5 μg2/m6, and 26.6 μg/m3. DP-DNN has higher accuracy and generalization ability. At the same time, the estimation method in this paper can estimate the PM2.5 of the selected longitude and latitude, which can effectively solve the problem of insufficient coverage of China’s meteorological environmental quality monitoring stations.

AbstractIn this paper, an artificial neural network model was developed to predict the downhole density of oil-based muds under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions. Six performance metrics, namely goodness of fit (R2), mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), sum of squares error (SSE) and root mean square error (RMSE), were used to assess the performance of the developed model. From the results, the model had an overall MSE of 0.000477 with an MAE of 0.017 and an R2 of 0.9999, MAPE of 0.127, RMSE of 0.022 and SSE of 0.056. All the model predictions were in excellent agreement with the measured results. Consequently, in assessing the generalization capability of the developed model for the oil-based mud, a new set of data that was not part of the training process of the model comprising 34 data points was used. In this regard, the model was able to predict 99% of the unfamiliar data with an MSE of 0.0159, MAE of 0.101, RMSE of 0.126, SSE of 0.54 and a MAPE of 0.7. In comparison with existing models, the ANN model developed in this study performed better. The sensitivity analysis performed shows that the initial mud density has the greatest impact on the final mud density downhole. This unique modelling technique and the model it evolved represents a huge step in the trajectory of achieving full automation of downhole mud density estimation. Furthermore, this method eliminates the need for surface measurement equipment, while at the same time, representing more accurately the downhole mud density at any given pressure and temperature.

Mechanical damage is recognized as a problem that reduces the performance of oil and gas pipelines and has been the subject of continuous research. The artificial neural network in the spotlight recently is expected to be another solution to solve the problems relating to the pipelines. The deep neural network, which is on the basis of artificial neural network algorithm and is a method amongst various machine learning methods, is applied in this study. The applicability of machine learning techniques such as deep neural network for the prediction of burst pressure has been investigated for dented API 5L X-grade pipelines. To this end, supervised learning is employed, and the deep neural network model has four layers with three hidden layers, and the neural network uses the fully connected layer. The burst pressure computed by deep neural network model has been compared with the results of finite element analysis based parametric study, and the burst pressure calculated by the experimental results. According to the comparison results, it showed good agreement. Therefore, it is concluded that deep neural networks can be another solution for predicting the burst pressure of API 5L X-grade dented pipelines.

Safety Performance Functions (SPFs) are regression models used to predict the expected number of collisions as a function of various traffic and geometric characteristics. One of the integral components in developing SPFs is the availability of accurate exposure factors, that is, annual average daily traffic (AADT). However, AADTs are not often available for minor roads at rural intersections. This study aims to develop a robust AADT estimation model using a deep neural network. A total of 1,350 rural four-legged, stop-controlled intersections from the Province of Alberta, Canada, were used to train the neural network. The results of the deep neural network model were compared with the traditional estimation method, which uses linear regression. The results indicated that the deep neural network model improved the estimation of minor roads’ AADT by 35% when compared with the traditional method. Furthermore, SPFs developed using linear regression resulted in models with statistically insignificant AADTs on minor roads. Conversely, the SPF developed using the neural network provided a better fit to the data with both AADTs on minor and major roads being statistically significant variables. The findings indicated that the proposed model could enhance the predictive power of the SPF and therefore improve the decision-making process since SPFs are used in all parts of the safety management process.

The optimization for hardware processor and system for performing deep learning operations such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in resource limited embedded devices are recent active research area. In order to perform an optimized deep neural network model using the limited computational unit and memory of an embedded device, it is necessary to quickly apply various configurations of hardware modules to various deep neural network models and find the optimal combination. The Electronic System Level (ESL) Simulator based on SystemC is very useful for rapid hardware modeling and verification. In this paper, we designed and implemented a Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA) that performs Deep Neural Network (DNN) operation based on the RISC-V Virtual Platform implemented in SystemC in order to enable rapid and diverse analysis of deep learning operations in an embedded device based on the RISC-V processor, which is a recently emerging embedded processor. The developed RISC-V based DLA prototype can analyze the hardware requirements according to the CNN data set through the configuration of the CNN DLA architecture, and it is possible to run RISC-V compiled software on the platform, can perform a real neural network model like Darknet. We performed the Darknet CNN model on the developed DLA prototype, and confirmed that computational overhead and inference errors can be analyzed with the DLA prototype developed by analyzing the DLA architecture for various data sets.
