However, effective methods for achieving this traceability are currently lacking. This study investigates the potential of explainable machine learning for the geo-traceability of raw cotton.Results The findings indicate that principal component analysis(PCA) exhibits limited effectiveness in tracing cotton origins. In contrast, partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA) demonstrates superior classification performance, identifying seven discriminating variables: Na, Mn, Ba, Rb, Al, As, and Pb. The use of decision tree(DT), support vector machine(SVM), and random forest(RF) models for origin discrimination yielded accuracies of 90%, 87%, and 97%, respectively. Notably, the light gradient boosting machine(Light GBM) model achieved perfect performance metrics, with accuracy, precision, and recall rate all reaching 100% on the test set. The output of the Light GBM model was further evaluated using the SHapley Additive ex Planation(SHAP) technique, which highlighted differences in the elemental composition of raw cotton from various countries. Specifically, the elements Pb, Ni, Na, Al, As, Ba, and Rb significantly influenced the model's predictions.Conclusion These findings suggest that explainable machine learning techniques can provide insights into the complex relationships between geographic information and raw cotton. Consequently, these methodologies enhances the precision and reliability of geographic traceability for raw cotton.展开更多

However, due to the temper-ature sensitivity of optical devices, the influence of environmen-tal temperature causes errors in FOG, thereby greatly limiting their output accuracy. This work researches on machine-learn-ing based temperature error compensation techniques for FOG. Specifically, it focuses on compensating for the bias errors gen-erated in the fiber ring due to the Shupe effect. This work pro-poses a composite model based on k-means clustering, sup-port vector regression, and particle swarm optimization algo-rithms. And it significantly reduced redundancy within the sam-ples by adopting the interval sequence sample. Moreover, met-rics such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), bias stability, and Allan variance, are selected to evaluate the model’s performance and compensation effective-ness. This work effectively enhances the consistency between data and models across different temperature ranges and tem-perature gradients, improving the bias stability of the FOG from 0.022 °/h to 0.006 °/h. Compared to the existing methods utiliz-ing a single machine learning model, the proposed method increases the bias stability of the compensated FOG from 57.11% to 71.98%, and enhances the suppression of rate ramp noise coefficient from 2.29% to 14.83%. This work improves the accuracy of FOG after compensation, providing theoretical guid-ance and technical references for sensors error compensation work in other fields.展开更多

文摘Estimating trawler fishing effort plays a critical role in characterizing marine fisheries activities,quantifying the ecological impact of trawling,and refining regulatory frameworks and policies.Understanding trawler fishing inputs offers crucial scientific data to support the sustainable management of offshore fishery resources in China.An XGBoost algorithm was introduced and optimized through Harris Hawks Optimization(HHO),to develop a model for identifying trawler fishing behaviour.The model demonstrated exceptional performance,achieving accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,and the Matthews correlation coefficient of 0.9713,0.9806,0.9632,and 0.9425,respectively.Using this model to detect fishing activities,the fishing effort of trawlers from Shandong Province in the sea area between 119°E to 124°E and 32°N to 40°N in 2021 was quantified.A heatmap depicting fishing effort,generated with a spatial resolution of 1/8°,revealed that fishing activities were predominantly concentrated in two regions:121.1°E to 124°E,35.7°N to 38.7°N,and 119.8°E to 122.8°E,33.6°N to 35.4°N.This research can provide a foundation for quantitative evaluations of fishery resources,which can offer vital data to promote the sustainable development of marine capture fisheries.
文摘The development of sustainable electrode materials for energy storage systems has become very important and porous carbons derived from biomass have become an important candidate because of their tunable pore structure,environmental friendliness,and cost-effectiveness.Recent advances in controlling the pore structure of these carbons and its relationship between to is energy storage performance are discussed,emphasizing the critical role of a balanced distribution of micropores,mesopores and macropores in determining electrochemical behavior.Particular attention is given to how the intrinsic components of biomass precursors(lignin,cellulose,and hemicellulose)influence pore formation during carbonization.Carbonization and activation strategies to precisely control the pore structure are introduced.Finally,key challenges in the industrial production of these carbons are outlined,and future research directions are proposed.These include the establishment of a database of biomass intrinsic structures and machine learning-assisted pore structure engineering,aimed at providing guidance for the design of high-performance carbon materials for next-generation energy storage devices.
文摘Causality,the science of cause and effect,has made it possible to create a new family of models.Such models are often referred to as causal models.Unlike those of mathematical,numerical,empirical,or machine learning(ML)nature,causal models hope to tie the cause(s)to the effect(s)pertaining to a phenomenon(i.e.,data generating process)through causal principles.This paper presents one of the first works at creating causal models in the area of structural and construction engineering.To this end,this paper starts with a brief review of the principles of causality and then adopts four causal discovery algorithms,namely,PC(Peter-Clark),FCI(fast causal inference),GES(greedy equivalence search),and GRa SP(greedy relaxation of the sparsest permutation),have been used to examine four phenomena,including predicting the load-bearing capacity of axially loaded members,fire resistance of structural members,shear strength of beams,and resistance of walls against impulsive(blast)loading.Findings from this study reveal the possibility and merit of discovering complete and partial causal models.Finally,this study also proposes two simple metrics that can help assess the performance of causal discovery algorithms.

文摘Background The geo-traceability of cotton is crucial for ensuring the quality and integrity of cotton brands. However, effective methods for achieving this traceability are currently lacking. This study investigates the potential of explainable machine learning for the geo-traceability of raw cotton.Results The findings indicate that principal component analysis(PCA) exhibits limited effectiveness in tracing cotton origins. In contrast, partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA) demonstrates superior classification performance, identifying seven discriminating variables: Na, Mn, Ba, Rb, Al, As, and Pb. The use of decision tree(DT), support vector machine(SVM), and random forest(RF) models for origin discrimination yielded accuracies of 90%, 87%, and 97%, respectively. Notably, the light gradient boosting machine(Light GBM) model achieved perfect performance metrics, with accuracy, precision, and recall rate all reaching 100% on the test set. The output of the Light GBM model was further evaluated using the SHapley Additive ex Planation(SHAP) technique, which highlighted differences in the elemental composition of raw cotton from various countries. Specifically, the elements Pb, Ni, Na, Al, As, Ba, and Rb significantly influenced the model's predictions.Conclusion These findings suggest that explainable machine learning techniques can provide insights into the complex relationships between geographic information and raw cotton. Consequently, these methodologies enhances the precision and reliability of geographic traceability for raw cotton.
文摘Background Plant tissue culture has emerged as a tool for improving cotton propagation and genetics,but recalcitrance nature of cotton makes it difficult to develop in vitro regeneration.Cotton’s recalcitrance is influenced by genotype,explant type,and environmental conditions.To overcome these issues,this study uses different machine learning-based predictive models by employing multiple input factors.Cotyledonary node explants of two commercial cotton cultivars(STN-468 and GSN-12)were isolated from 7–8 days old seedlings,preconditioned with 5,10,and 20 mg·L^(-1) kinetin(KIN)for 10 days.Thereafter,explants were postconditioned on full Murashige and Skoog(MS),1/2MS,1/4MS,and full MS+0.05 mg·L^(-1) KIN,cultured in growth room enlightened with red and blue light-emitting diodes(LED)combination.Statistical analysis(analysis of variance,regression analysis)was employed to assess the impact of different treatments on shoot regeneration,with artificial intelligence(AI)models used for confirming the findings.Results GSN-12 exhibited superior shoot regeneration potential compared with STN-468,with an average of 4.99 shoots per explant versus 3.97.Optimal results were achieved with 5 mg·L^(-1) KIN preconditioning,1/4MS postconditioning,and 80%red LED,with maximum of 7.75 shoot count for GSN-12 under these conditions;while STN-468 reached 6.00 shoots under the conditions of 10 mg·L^(-1) KIN preconditioning,MS with 0.05 mg·L^(-1) KIN(postconditioning)and 75.0%red LED.Rooting was successfully achieved with naphthalene acetic acid and activated charcoal.Additionally,three different powerful AI-based models,namely,extreme gradient boost(XGBoost),random forest(RF),and the artificial neural network-based multilayer perceptron(MLP)regression models validated the findings.Conclusion GSN-12 outperformed STN-468 with optimal results from 5 mg·L^(-1) KIN+1/4MS+80%red LED.Application of machine learning-based prediction models to optimize cotton tissue culture protocols for shoot regeneration is helpful to improve cotton regeneration efficiency.

文摘Blast-induced ground vibration,quantified by peak particle velocity(PPV),is a crucial factor in mitigating environmental and structural risks in mining and geotechnical engineering.Accurate PPV prediction facilitates safer and more sustainable blasting operations by minimizing adverse impacts and ensuring regulatory compliance.This study presents an advanced predictive framework integrating Cat Boost(CB)with nature-inspired optimization algorithms,including the Bat Algorithm(BAT),Sparrow Search Algorithm(SSA),Butterfly Optimization Algorithm(BOA),and Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm(GOA).A comprehensive dataset from the Sarcheshmeh Copper Mine in Iran was utilized to develop and evaluate these models using key performance metrics such as the Index of Agreement(IoA),Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency(NSE),and the coefficient of determination(R^(2)).The hybrid CB-BOA model outperformed other approaches,achieving the highest accuracy(R^(2)=0.989)and the lowest prediction errors.SHAP analysis identified Distance(Di)as the most influential variable affecting PPV,while uncertainty analysis confirmed CB-BOA as the most reliable model,featuring the narrowest prediction interval.These findings highlight the effectiveness of hybrid machine learning models in refining PPV predictions,contributing to improved blast design strategies,enhanced structural safety,and reduced environmental impacts in mining and geotechnical engineering.

文摘Background Cotton is one of the most important commercial crops after food crops,especially in countries like India,where it’s grown extensively under rainfed conditions.Because of its usage in multiple industries,such as textile,medicine,and automobile industries,it has greater commercial importance.The crop’s performance is greatly influenced by prevailing weather dynamics.As climate changes,assessing how weather changes affect crop performance is essential.Among various techniques that are available,crop models are the most effective and widely used tools for predicting yields.Results This study compares statistical and machine learning models to assess their ability to predict cotton yield across major producing districts of Karnataka,India,utilizing a long-term dataset spanning from 1990 to 2023 that includes yield and weather factors.The artificial neural networks(ANNs)performed superiorly with acceptable yield deviations ranging within±10%during both vegetative stage(F1)and mid stage(F2)for cotton.The model evaluation metrics such as root mean square error(RMSE),normalized root mean square error(nRMSE),and modelling efficiency(EF)were also within the acceptance limits in most districts.Furthermore,the tested ANN model was used to assess the importance of the dominant weather factors influencing crop yield in each district.Specifically,the use of morning relative humidity as an individual parameter and its interaction with maximum and minimum tempera-ture had a major influence on cotton yield in most of the yield predicted districts.These differences highlighted the differential interactions of weather factors in each district for cotton yield formation,highlighting individual response of each weather factor under different soils and management conditions over the major cotton growing districts of Karnataka.Conclusions Compared with statistical models,machine learning models such as ANNs proved higher efficiency in forecasting the cotton yield due to their ability to consider the interactive effects of weather factors on yield forma-tion at different growth stages.This highlights the best suitability of ANNs for yield forecasting in rainfed conditions and for the study on relative impacts of weather factors on yield.Thus,the study aims to provide valuable insights to support stakeholders in planning effective crop management strategies and formulating relevant policies.

文摘Taoren and Xingren are commonly used herbs in East Asian medicine with different medication functions but huge economic differences,and there are cases of adulterated sales in market transactions.An effective adulteration recognition based on hyperspectral technology and machine learning was designed as a non-destructive testing method in this paper.A hyperspectral dataset comprising 500 Taoren and 500 Xingren samples was established;six feature selection methods were considered in the modeling of radial basis function-support vector machine(RBF-SVM),whose interaction between the two optimization methods was further researched.Two mixed metaheuristics modeling methods,Mixed-PSO and Mixed-SA,were designed,which fused both band selection and hyperparameter optimization from two-stage into one with detailed process analysis.The metrics of this mixed model were improved by comparing with traditional two-stage method.The accuracy of Mixed-PSO was 89.2%in five-floods crossvalidation that increased 4.818%than vanilla RBF-SVM;the accuracy of Mixed-SA was 88.7%which could reach the same as the traditional two-stage method,but it only relied on 48 crux bands in full 100 bands in RBF-SVM model fitting.

文摘Driven by rapid technological advancements and economic growth,mineral extraction and metal refining have increased dramatically,generating huge volumes of tailings and mine waste(TMWs).Investigating the morphological fractions of heavy metals and metalloids(HMMs)in TMWs is key to evaluating their leaching potential into the environment;however,traditional experiments are time-consuming and labor-intensive.In this study,10 machine learning(ML)algorithms were used and compared for rapidly predicting the morphological fractions of HMMs in TMWs.A dataset comprising 2376 data points was used,with mineral composition,elemental properties,and total concentration used as inputs and concentration of morphological fraction used as output.After grid search optimization,the extra tree model performed the best,achieving coefficient of determination(R2)of 0.946 and 0.942 on the validation and test sets,respectively.Electronegativity was found to have the greatest impact on the morphological fraction.The models’performance was enhanced by applying an ensemble method to the top three optimal ML models,including gradient boosting decision tree,extra trees and categorical boosting.Overall,the proposed framework can accurately predict the concentrations of different morphological fractions of HMMs in TMWs.This approach can minimize detection time,aid in the safe management and recovery of TMWs.

文摘As the core component of inertial navigation systems, fiber optic gyroscope (FOG), with technical advantages such as low power consumption, long lifespan, fast startup speed, and flexible structural design, are widely used in aerospace, unmanned driving, and other fields. However, due to the temper-ature sensitivity of optical devices, the influence of environmen-tal temperature causes errors in FOG, thereby greatly limiting their output accuracy. This work researches on machine-learn-ing based temperature error compensation techniques for FOG. Specifically, it focuses on compensating for the bias errors gen-erated in the fiber ring due to the Shupe effect. This work pro-poses a composite model based on k-means clustering, sup-port vector regression, and particle swarm optimization algo-rithms. And it significantly reduced redundancy within the sam-ples by adopting the interval sequence sample. Moreover, met-rics such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), bias stability, and Allan variance, are selected to evaluate the model’s performance and compensation effective-ness. This work effectively enhances the consistency between data and models across different temperature ranges and tem-perature gradients, improving the bias stability of the FOG from 0.022 °/h to 0.006 °/h. Compared to the existing methods utiliz-ing a single machine learning model, the proposed method increases the bias stability of the compensated FOG from 57.11% to 71.98%, and enhances the suppression of rate ramp noise coefficient from 2.29% to 14.83%. This work improves the accuracy of FOG after compensation, providing theoretical guid-ance and technical references for sensors error compensation work in other fields.
文摘The ammunition loading system manipulator is susceptible to gear failure due to high-frequency,heavyload reciprocating motions and the absence of protective gear components.After a fault occurs,the distribution of fault characteristics under different loads is markedly inconsistent,and data is hard to label,which makes it difficult for the traditional diagnosis method based on single-condition training to generalize to different conditions.To address these issues,the paper proposes a novel transfer discriminant neural network(TDNN)for gear fault diagnosis.Specifically,an optimized joint distribution adaptive mechanism(OJDA)is designed to solve the distribution alignment problem between two domains.To improve the classification effect within the domain and the feature recognition capability for a few labeled data,metric learning is introduced to distinguish features from different fault categories.In addition,TDNN adopts a new pseudo-label training strategy to achieve label replacement by comparing the maximum probability of the pseudo-label with the test result.The proposed TDNN is verified in the experimental data set of the artillery manipulator device,and the diagnosis can achieve 99.5%,significantly outperforming other traditional adaptation methods.
