Accurate detection of lane lines is of great significance for improving vehicle driving safety. In our previous research, by improving the horizontal and vertical density of the detection grid in the YOLO v3 (You Only Look Once, the 3th version) model, the obtained lane line (LL) algorithm, YOLO v3 (S × 2S), has high accuracy. However, like the traditional LL detection algorithms, they do not use spatial information and have low detection accuracy under occlusion, deformation, worn, poor lighting, and other non-ideal environmental conditions. After studying the spatial information between LLs and learning the distribution law of LLs, an LL prediction model based on long short-term memory (LSTM) and recursive neural network (RcNN) was established; the method can predict the future LL position by using historical LL position information. Moreover, by combining the LL information predicted with YOLO v3 (S × 2S) detection results using Dempster Shafer (D-S) evidence theory, the LL detection accuracy can be improved effectively, and the uncertainty of this system be reduced correspondingly. The results show that the accuracy of LL detection can be significantly improved in rainy, snowy weather, and obstacle scenes.

A smart home provides a facilitated environment for the detection of human activity with appropriate Deep Learning algorithms to manipulate data collected from numerous sensors attached to various smart things in a smart home environment. Human activities comprise expected and unexpected behavior events; therefore, detecting these events consisting of mutual dependent activities poses a key challenge in the activities detection paradigm. Besides, the battery-powered sensor ubiquitously and extensively monitors activities, disputes, and sensor energy depletion. Therefore, to address these challenges, we propose an Energy and Event Aware-Sensor Duty Cycling scheme. The proposed model predicts the future expected event using the Bi-Directional Long-Short Term Memory model and allocates Predictive Sensors to the predicted event. To detect the unexpected events, the proposed model localizes a Monitor Sensor within a cluster of Hibernate Sensors using the Jaccard Similarity Index. Finally, we optimize the performance of our proposed scheme by employing the Q-Learning algorithm to track the missed or undetected events. The simulation is executed against the conventional Machine Learning algorithms for the sensor duty cycle, scheduling to reduce the sensor energy consumption and improve the activity detection accuracy. The experimental evaluation of our proposed scheme shows significant improvement in activity detection accuracy from 94.12% to 96.12%. Besides, the effective rotation of the Monitor Sensor significantly improves the energy consumption of each sensor with the entire network lifetime.

An accurate dam deformation prediction model is vital to a dam safety monitoring system, as it helps assess and manage dam risks. Most traditional dam deformation prediction algorithms ignore the interpretation and evaluation of variables and lack qualitative measures. This paper proposes a data processing framework that uses a long short-term memory (LSTM) model coupled with an attention mechanism to predict the deformation response of a dam structure. First, the random forest (RF) model is introduced to assess the relative importance of impact factors and screen input variables. Secondly, the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) method is used to identify and filter the equipment based abnormal values to reduce the random error in the measurements. Finally, the coupled model is used to focus on important factors in the time dimension in order to obtain more accurate nonlinear prediction results. The results of the case study show that, of all tested methods, the proposed coupled method performed best. In addition, it was found that temperature and water level both have significant impacts on dam deformation and can serve as reliable metrics for dam management.
