Concrete Dam Deformation Prediction Model Based on Attention Mechanism and Deep Learning by ZHANG Hongrui, CAO Xin, JIANG Chao, ZU Anjun, XU Mingxiang

“…A comprehensive comparative analysis was conducted against multiple linear regression (MLR), ELM, gated recurrent unit (GRU), and convolutional-long short-term memory (C-LSTM) methods. Results demonstrate that the proposed method can accurately predict displacement variation trends and exhibits superior prediction performance compared to both deep learning and non-deep learning comparative methods, with RMSE and MAE reduced by 10.73% and 4.37% respectively compared to the second-best method, achieving an R² of 0.987 1. …”

Chemometric analysis of ethoxylated polymer products using extracted MALDI-TOF-MS peak distribution features. by Elizabeth Dickinson, Richard N Cawthorne, Peter Dodds, Graham M Atkinson, Pablo F García Thomas, Lucy Jones, Molly Crosbie, Janet Cook, Julie Wilson

“…Crucially, we weight the extracted features, so that features from a distribution with a high ratio to the main distribution are given more importance ('ratio-scaled'). We exemplify the method by characterizing the structural variation between types of compositionally diverse Polysorbate 80, PEG castor oil and Oleth-20, and compare the chemometric analysis using our extracted features with analysis of the full spectra. …”
