The problem of global warming is getting more serious, and vehicle emission is the main cause. In recent years, the number of locomotives in China has been increasing at a rate of more than 20% per year, and the problem of automobile pollution is becoming more serious. The transportation industry is the main source of fossil fuel combustion and environmental pollution. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a multi-view deep neural network (MVDNN) to analyze the key factors affecting the fuel consumption of automobiles. The experiments show that the introduction of human input improves the prediction accuracy and the root mean square error (RMSE) achieves 0.993. In addition, this paper also finds that for drivers, driving habits, driving frequency, and safety awareness are the most important factors affecting the fuel consumption of vehicles by combining Lasso regression with MVDNN. Finally, by comparing the prediction accuracy of different experiments, relevant policy suggestions are made. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mammography is an important screening criterion for breast cancer, one of the major diseases causing numerous deaths among female patients. Meanwhile, manual diagnosis of mammography is a time-consuming and labor-consuming job. Mammogram classification based on deep learning plays a vital role in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems to mitigate the pressure on physicians. This paper proposes a learning-based multi-view mammogram classification model that captures long-distance dependence and extracts features of multiple receptive fields. Our model considers global and local features of mammography images using Transformer for global features and the proposed multiplex convolutions module for local features. We evaluate our proposed method on a dataset of mammography images obtained from a hospital in China. The proposed method achieves 90.57% accuracy and 94.86% AUC in benign or malignant classification tasks and outperforms other advanced methods for mammogram classification. It is worth noting that the proposed method only requires image-level labels and acts on the whole raw mammogram, which has clinical significance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The mutant strains of COVID-19 caused a global explosion of infections, including many cities of China. In 2020, a hybrid AI model was proposed by Zheng et al., which accurately predicted the epidemic in Wuhan. As the main part of the hybrid AI model, ISI method makes two important assumptions to avoid over-fitting. However, the assumptions cannot be effectively applied to new mutant strains. In this paper, a more general method, named the multi-weight susceptible-infected model (MSI) is proposed to predict COVID-19 in Chinese Mainland. First, a Gaussian pre-processing method is proposed to solve the problem of data fluctuation based on the quantity consistency of cumulative infection number and the trend consistency of daily infection number. Then, we improve the model from two aspects: changing the grouped multi-parameter strategy to the multi-weight strategy, and removing the restriction of weight distribution of viral infectivity. Experiments on the outbreaks in many places in China from the end of 2021 to May 2022 show that, in China, an individual infected by Delta or Omicron strains of SARS-CoV-2 can infect others within 3–4 days after he/she got infected. Especially, the proposed method effectively predicts the trend of the epidemics in Xi'an, Tianjin, Henan, and Shanghai from December 2021 to May 2022. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The complex and varied urban road conditions have always been a difficult and a pivotal component in the study of driverless technology especially at intersections. In China, it is necessary for driverless cars to understand the gestures of traffic police. To identify the traffic police gesture at the intersection, the key step is to detect the traffic police at the intersection. At present, the research on traffic police detection is still in its infancy, there exists common problems such as slow detection speed and other real time problems in this method, and there is not a standardized traffic police data set ether. For the real time problems, this paper introduces the attention mechanism, and proposes a new real-time detection method of traffic police based on attention mechanism. The method proposed in this paper has strong robustness and can quickly complete the target detection task. For the data set problem, this paper analyzes and discloses similar data sets published through research. In the meanwhile, this paper collects 24,530 video data on the actual road, and it extracts and saves 12,000 pictures containing traffic police at frame rate of 30FPS as traffic police detection training and validated data set.

Accurate traffic flow prediction can effectively improve traffic efficiency and safety. This has become a trending topic in intelligent transportation systems. However, the occurrence of traffic accidents will cause great fluctuations of traffic flow in a short time, thus affecting the accuracy of flow prediction. This paper analyses the influence of traffic accident information on traffic flow, and proposes a grey convolutional neural network called G-CNN for traffic flow prediction. First, considering the small sample size of traffic accidents and the incomplete information description, the traffic flow and traffic speed change rate are defined to represent traffic accident grey information, and a grey fixed-weight clustering method for extracting the characteristics of traffic accident grey information is established. Second, the spatiotemporal characteristics of traffic flow are analysed, and a third-order tensor is developed to fuse them with the accident characteristics and serve as the input of the G-CNN. Then the G-CNN model is built to predict traffic flow in a traffic accident environment. The Canadian Whitemud Drive experiment on traffic flow without traffic accident information reveals that the developed G-CNN model has a better ability to predict future traffic flow with better accuracy and stability. Meanwhile, it is verified that the fluctuation of the traffic change rate will cause traffic accidents, and the probability of traffic accidents at a certain time point will be obtained through feature extraction of traffic accidents. Finally, the model is verified for the traffic flow of Hangzhou Viaduct in China, which demonstrates that the G-CNN model outperforms all of the compared models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a novel approach for solving the shallow-water transport equation using a physics-informed neural network (PINN) combined with characteristic-based split (CBS). Simulation of the tide in East Coast of China is performed to verify the applicability of the present method in a practical problem. Furthermore, we propose a boundary condition that accounts for the second-order partial derivative term, which is more appropriate for solving the diffusion equation with open domains than the commonly used assumption of zero boundary values. Our numerical results demonstrate that this boundary condition leads to improved convergence of the network. In addition, we introduce a parameter estimation method that requires information from the field at only two different times, yet yields accurate parameter estimates. We observe that excessive participation of variables in gradient backpropagation can lead to neural networks getting trapped in local optima. We use PINN combined with CBS method to solve 3-D incompressible flow. As the number of variables involved in gradient backpropagation increases, the accuracy of the solution decreases, which can partially support our viewpoint. The source codes for the numerical examples in this work are available at https://github.com/double110/PINN-cbs-.git. • We introduce a rapid version of PINN and solve 3-d incompressible flow. • We introduce a boundary condition in open domains to enhance accuracy and stability. • We develop a PINN-CBS method for parameter estimation. • Reduce the number of variables participating in backpropagation can improve accuracy.

Predicting stock market trends is the basic daily routine task that investors should perform in the stock trading market. Traditional market trends prediction models are generally based on hand-crafted factors or features, which heavily rely on expensive expertise knowledge. Moreover, it is difficult to discover hidden features contained in the stock time series data, which are otherwise helpful for predicting stock market trends. In this paper, we propose a novel stock market trends prediction framework SMART with a self-supervised stock technical data sequence embedding model S3E. Specifically, the model encodes stock technical data sequences into embeddings, which are further trained with multiple self-supervised auxiliary tasks. With the learned sequence embeddings, we make stock market trends predictions based on an LSTM and a feed-forward neural network. We conduct extensive experiments on China A-Shares market and NASDAQ market to show that our model is highly effective for stock market trends prediction. We further deploy SMART in a leading financial service provider in China and the result demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method in real-world applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• Introduce the state-of-art temporal fusion transformers (TFT) into economic system forecasting based on the high compatibility between deep learning and the nonlinear characteristics of socio-economic systems. • Propose a scientific economic system forecasting framework on the foundation of the extended gross final product (GFP). • Build a four-dimensional evaluation system including numerical error, direction accuracy, timing error and turning point accuracy. • Empirically forecast the monthly output indicators of the Chinese macroeconomic system. • TFT results have obvious advantages over benchmark models including ARIMA, BP, LSTM, TCN and N-BEATS through comparison analysis. Although helpful in reducing the uncertainty associated with economic activities, economic forecasting often suffers from low accuracy. Recognizing the high compatibility between deep learning and the nonlinear characteristics of socioeconomic systems, in this paper, we introduce state-of-the-art temporal fusion transformers (TFTs) into the field of economic system forecasting and predict the performance of the Chinese macroeconomic system. Based on an extended analysis of gross final product (GFP) and the intertemporal dynamic relationship between demand-side indicators and output indicators, we establish a scientific economic forecasting framework. To summarize the forecasting characteristics of the TFT algorithm, we compare its one-step and three-step modeling effects in forecasting output indicators with a series of representative benchmark models. According to our proposed four-dimensional evaluation system, the forecasts for China's macroeconomic system provided by the TFT model have obvious advantages in terms of overall stability, forecasting efficiency, reduction of numerical and timing errors, direction accuracy, and turning point accuracy. The forecast results show that China's economy faces a risk of slowing growth in the post-pandemic period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
