Dual Generative Network with Discriminative Information for Generalized Zero-Shot Learning by Tingting Xu, Ye Zhao, Xueliang Liu

“…To solve the above problems, we propose a novel model that uses the discriminative information of visual features to optimize the generative module, in which the generative module is a dual generation network framework composed of conditional VAE and improved WGAN. Specifically, the model uses the discrimination information of visual features, according to the relevant semantic embedding, synthesizes the visual features of unseen categories by using the learned generator, and then trains the final softmax classifier by using the generated visual features, thus realizing the recognition of unseen categories. …”

A Reliable Approach for Solving Transmission Network Expansion Planning with Objective of Planning Cost Reduction by Yongqiu Liu

“…The candidate plans are evaluated using a fitness function that considered objective function for transmission expansion planning problem is composed of two terms. The first term is related to the sum of investment costs which is the construction cost of new lines; the second term is related to the expected operation costs, which is the expected cost of generation in the power system. …”

Attention-based interactive multi-level feature fusion for named entity recognition by Yiwu Xu, Yun Chen

“…To address this issue, we propose a novel attention-based interactive multi-level feature fusion (AIMFF) framework, which aims to improve NER by obtaining multi-level features from different perspectives and interactively capturing the dependencies between different features. Our model is composed of four parts: the input, feature extraction, feature fusion, and sequence-labeling layers. …”

Very Short-Term Blackout Prediction for Grid-Tied PV Systems Operating in Low Reliability Weak Electric Grids of Developing Countries by Benson H. Mbuya, Aleksandar Dimovski, Marco Merlo, Thomas Kivevele

“…Input data sampled at a 15-minute interval included day of the month, weekday, hour, supply voltage, utility line frequency, and previous days’ blackout profiles. The model was composed of an adaptive similar day (ASD) module that predicts 15 minutes ahead from a sliding window lookup table spanning 2 weeks prior to the prediction target day, after which ASD prediction was fused with RF prediction, giving a final optimised RF-ASD blackout prediction model. …”

A Novel Emerging Topic Identification and Evolution Discovery Method on Time-Evolving and Heterogeneous Online Social Networks by Xiaoyan Xu, Wei Lv, Beibei Zhang, Shuaipeng Zhou, Wei Wei, Yusen Li

“…This paper proposed a novel early emerging topic detection and its evolution law identification framework based on dynamic community detection method on time-evolving and scalable heterogeneous social networks. The framework is composed of three major steps. Firstly, a time-evolving and scalable complex network denoted as KeyGraph is built up by deeply analyzing the text features of all kinds of data crawled from heterogeneous online social network platforms; secondly, a novel dynamic community detection method is proposed by which the new emerging topic is detected on the modeled time-evolving and scalable KeyGraph network; thirdly, a unified directional topic propagation network modeled by a great number of short texts including microblogs and news titles is set up, and the topic evolution law of the previously detected early emerging topic is identified by fully utilizing local network variations and modularity optimization of the “time-evolving” and directional topic propagation network. …”
