Mechanical Framework for Geopolymer Gels Construction: An Optimized LSTM Technique to Predict Compressive Strength of Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer Gels Concrete

As an environmentally responsible alternative to conventional concrete, geopolymer concrete recycles previously used resources to prepare the cementitious component of the product. The challenging issue with employing geopolymer concrete in the building business is the absence of a standard mix design. According to the chemical composition of...

Real-time pipeline leak detection and localization using an attention-based LSTM approach

Long short-term memory (LSTM) has been widely applied to real-time automated natural gas leak detection and localization. However, LSTM approach could not provide the interpretation that this leak position is localized instead of other positions. This study proposes a leakage detection and localization approach by integrating the attention...

Towards deep probabilistic graph neural network for natural gas leak detection and localization without labeled anomaly data

Deep learning has been widely applied to automated leakage detection and location of natural gas pipe networks. Prevalent deep learning approaches do not consider the spatial dependency of sensors, which limits leakage detection performance. Graph deep learning is a promising alternative to prevailing approaches as it can model spatial...

A 1.66Gb/s and 5.8pJ/b Transcutaneous IR-UWB Telemetry System with Hybrid Impulse Modulation for Intracortical Brain-Computer Interfaces

Intra-cortical extracellular neural sensing is being rapidly and widely applied in several clinical research and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), as the number of sensing channels continues to double every 6 years. By distributing multiple high-density extracellular micro-electrode arrays (MEAs) in vivo across the brain, each with 1000's of...

A BJT-Based CMOS Temperature Sensor with Duty-Cycle-Modulated Output and ±0.5°C (3σ) Inaccuracy from -40 °c to 125 °c

This brief presents a 0.65% relative inaccuracy CMOS temperature sensor with a duty-cycle-modulated (DCM) output. It uses a BJT-based front-end to generate a proportional to absolute temperature voltage (V_{PTAT}) and a complementary to absolute temperature voltage (V_{CTAT}), which are then modulated to a digital-friendly duty-cycle output....

Multityped Community Discovery in Time-Evolving Heterogeneous Information Networks Based on Tensor Decomposition

The heterogeneous information networks are omnipresent in real-world applications, which consist of multiple types of objects with various rich semantic meaningful links among them. Community discovery is an effective method to extract the hidden structures in networks. Usually, heterogeneous information networks are time-evolving, whose objects...

Thermoluminescence investigation of donor (Ce3+, Pr3+, Tb3+) acceptor (Eu3+, Yb3+) pairs in Y3Al5O12

The thermoluminescence properties of Y3Al5O12 (YAG) doped with an electron donor lanthanide (Ce3+, Pr3+, or Tb3+) together with an electron acceptor lanthanide (Yb3+ or Eu3+) were studied with the aim to locate the energy levels of each divalent and each trivalent lanthanide within the band gap. The activation energies needed to liberate...
