Prediction of the waterborne navigation density based on the multi-feature spatio-temporal graph convolution network by Wei DONG, Leilei ZHANG, Ziheng JIN, Wei SUN, Junbo GAO

“…In the face of the development of the information technology in the port and waterway,the Internet of things (IoT) technology can help to build China’s water transport perception network.The big data analysis of the waterborne transport has become a hot topic for researchers and practitioners in the field of transportation.The navigation density of each port in the water transportation is nonlinear and spatio-temporal correlation,so it is a great challenge to accurately predict it.A multi-feature spatiotemporal graph convolution network (MFSTGCN) was proposed to solve the problem of the traffic density prediction.MFSTGCN effectively captured the spatial-temporal correlation of the ship navigation density data by using the spatial convolution and temporal convolution through three features,which were navigation volume,average ship speed and ship density.The experiment was carried out on the automatic identification system (AIS) data set collected from a shipping platform.The results show that the prediction effect of the MFSTGCN model is better than the spatio-temporal graph convolution network (STGCN) model.…”

A Reflection on the Current State of Active Learning Research by Amedee Marchand Martella, Darryl Schneider

“…Interest in active learning continues to grow worldwide. Although the large volume of active learning research has provided a myriad of ways to implement active learning in the classroom, the construct remains underdeveloped and difficult to operationalize because of three main issues in the research literature: (a) the variation in active learning activities in research and in practice; (b) the dichotomy between active learning and lecture; and (c) whether “active” in active learning refers to behavioral activity, cognitive activity, or both. …”
