A dam deformation prediction method based on interpretable component decomposition and integration is proposed to address the problems of weak interpretability, difficult identification of key factors, and insufficient accuracy in the prediction model of deformation monitoring values of concrete dams due to multiple factors such as environmental loads and time factors. This method first strips the temporal component from the original sequence to obtain the castration sequence. Furthermore, complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) is used to decompose and reconstruct it into environmental load components and residual terms. In the process of deformation prediction, based on the characteristics of each deformation component, logarithmic functions, bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) networks optimized by The Black-Winged Kite Algorithm (BKA), and cloud models are used to fit and predict the temporal components, environmental load components, and residual terms, and the final prediction results are obtained through integration. At the same time, the SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) method is introduced to quantify the contribution of input factors to enhance the interpretability of the model. Case study shows that the model outperforms the comparison model in both prediction accuracy and trend tracking ability, effectively improving the reliability of prediction results and significantly increasing the interpretability of deformation prediction, providing a more reliable analysis technique for dam deformation safety monitoring.

Gas concentration series in coal mining faces are jointly affected by multiple coupled factors, including geological conditions, mining disturbances, ventilation organization, and gas drainage intensity, and therefore exhibit pronounced nonstationarity, strong fluctuations, spatiotemporal correlations across multiple monitoring points, and occasional abrupt spikes. To address these challenges, this study proposes a gas concentration prediction and early-warning method that integrates CEEMDAN–SST with GraphPINN-TimesFM (Graph Physics-Informed Neural Network–Time Series Foundation Model). First, based on multi-source monitoring data such as wind speed, gas concentrations at multiple monitoring points, and equipment operating status, anomaly removal, operating-condition segmentation, and change-point detection are performed to construct stable operating-state labels. Feature selection is then conducted by combining optimal time-lag correlation, Shapley value contribution, and dynamic time warping. Second, WGAN-GP is employed to augment samples from minority operating conditions, while CEEMDAN–SST is used to decompose and reconstruct the target series so as to reduce the interference of nonstationary noise and enhance sequence predictability. On this basis, TimesFM is adopted as the backbone for long-sequence forecasting to capture long-term dependency features in gas concentration evolution. Furthermore, GraphPINN is introduced to embed the topological associations among monitoring points, airflow transmission delays, and convection–diffusion mechanisms into the training process, thereby enabling collaborative modeling that integrates data-driven learning with physical constraints. Finally, the predictive performance, early-warning capability, and interpretability of the proposed model are systematically evaluated through regression forecasting, warning discrimination, and Shapley-based interpretability analysis. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy, robustness, and physical consistency of gas concentration prediction under complex operating conditions, thereby providing a new technical pathway for gas over-limit early warning and safety regulation in coal mining faces.

Incipient faults in power cables are difficult to diagnose because their transient signatures are weak, non-stationary, and easily masked by background noise, while labeled real-world samples are often scarce. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an offline diagnosis framework that integrates Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA)-guided CEEMDAN with a TCN-BiLSTM-Multi-HeadAttention network. The proposed method has three main features. First, WOA is explicitly mapped to the CEEMDAN parameter optimization problem and is used to adaptively optimize the noise amplitude and ensemble number, thereby improving decomposition quality and enhancing weak fault-related components. Second, the optimized intrinsic mode functions are reconstructed into a multi-channel representation that preserves complementary fault information across different frequency bands. Third, a hybrid deep architecture combining Temporal Convolutional Networks, Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory, and multi-HeadAttention is designed to jointly capture local transient characteristics, bidirectional temporal dependencies, and fault-sensitive feature interactions. Experimental results on both PSCAD/EMTDC simulation data and real-world measured data show that the optimized WOA-CEEMDAN achieves superior decomposition performance, with an RMSE of 0.097 and an SNR of 8.42 dB. On the real-world test dataset, the proposed framework achieves 96.00% accuracy, 97.25% precision, 96.84% recall, an F1-score of 0.970, and an AUC of 0.97, outperforming several representative baseline models. Additional ablation, noise-robustness, small-sample, confusion-matrix, and cross-cable validation results further demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed framework for incipient cable fault diagnosis.

Chaotic signals commonly exhibit nonlinear and nonstationary characteristics, while noise contamination reduces signal interpretability and degrades subsequent feature extraction and dynamical analysis. To improve the stability of mode-boundary determination and mitigate reconstruction distortion, this paper proposes a hybrid denoising framework that integrates feature mode decomposition (FMD), amplitude-aware permutation entropy (AAPE), dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT), and Savitzky–Golay (SG) filtering. First, the noisy signal is decomposed into multiple mode components using FMD. Then, the AAPE of each mode is calculated to adaptively distinguish high-frequency noise-dominant modes from non-high-frequency modes. For the high-frequency noise-dominant modes, improved logarithmic threshold shrinkage is applied to the magnitudes of DTCWT complex coefficients to suppress random noise and reduce threshold-induced bias. For the non-high-frequency modes, SG filtering is employed to further attenuate residual noise while preserving local waveform structures. Finally, the processed modes are reconstructed to obtain the denoised signal. Experiments on a simulated Lorenz chaotic signal and a real-world sunspot time series demonstrate that, across different noise levels, AAPE provides more stable mode partitioning than ApEn, CC, and CMSE. Moreover, under Gaussian white noise, Poisson noise, and uniform noise, the proposed method generally achieves a higher output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and a lower root mean square error (RMSE) than WT, CEEMD, EEMD, CEEMDAN+LMS, and VMD, while also yielding better performance in phase-space reconstruction and temporal-detail recovery. These results verify the effectiveness and practical applicability of the proposed method for chaotic signal denoising. Full article

Accurate building load forecasting is essential for smart grid and energy management, yet nonlinearity, non-stationarity, and multi-scale characteristics of load data challenge traditional methods. To address these issues, we propose a hybrid deep learning framework, CEEMDAN-MultiScale-CNN-BiLSTM-MultiAttention. First, Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) decomposes the load sequence into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), mitigating mode mixing and complexity. Then, a MultiScale Convolutional Neural Network extracts multi-scale local features from each IMF. A Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory network captures bidirectional temporal dependencies, and a Multi-Attention mechanism dynamically emphasizes critical time steps and feature channels, enhancing interpretability and prediction. The framework is validated on the Building Data Genome Project 2 dataset, achieving a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 2.6464% and a coefficient of determination R2 of 0.8999, outperforming mainstream methods across multiple metrics. The main contributions are: (1) a hybrid framework integrating CEEMDAN, multi-scale feature extraction, and attention mechanisms to handle nonlinearity and non-stationarity; (2) a MultiScale-CNN to capture multi-scale temporal features and adapt to multi-frequency components; (3) a Multi-Attention mechanism to dynamically focus on key time steps and channels, improving accuracy and robustness. This work provides an effective solution for building load forecasting in complex energy systems. Full article

Reliable wind power forecasting is essential for maintaining the safe and stable operation of power systems with high renewable energy penetration. This study proposes a short-term wind power forecasting model based on decomposition–optimization–prediction, integrating complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN), the improved football team training algorithm (IFTTA), and the bidirectional long short-term memory network model (BiLSTM). CEEMDAN is employed to decompose the non-stationary wind power sequence into relatively stable intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), thereby separating multi-scale fluctuation features. The IFTTA incorporates a dynamic probability allocation strategy and an adaptive parameter adjustment mechanism, which contributes to a better balance between global exploration and local exploitation. After optimizing the hyperparameters of BiLSTM using IFTTA, the prediction performance significantly improved. Validations were conducted on three datasets from Xinjiang, Ningxia, and Inner Mongolia, China, each containing 1440 samples (1152 for training and 288 for testing). Comparisons with the benchmark forecasting model demonstrate that the pro-posed model reduces the mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and root mean square error (RMSE) by at least 25.29%, 29.62%, and 20.66%, respectively. Correspondingly, the coefficient of determination (R2) was improved by at least 0.0069. This model provides an effective solution for short-term wind power prediction in practical engineering.

Harmonics and interharmonics have a significant impact on the safe operation of power systems, and accurately identifying interharmonics in power systems is the basis of harmonic suppression. The accuracy with which interharmonic components in power systems are detected is easily affected by mode aliasing and noise; to address this issue, a method of detecting them based on an adjusted Fourier-based synchrosqueezing transform (AFSST) and the three-point symmetric difference energy operator (DEO3S) is proposed. First, in order to reduce the influence of endpoint effects on detection accuracy, an improved waveform feature-matching extension method is utilized to reduce endpoint effects generated during the FSST decomposition process. Then, because it is difficult to adaptively determine the number of ridges in the FSST decomposition process, the energy difference and normalized cross-correlation coefficient are utilized as the criterion for determining the number of modal decompositions in the FSST, thereby improving the accuracy of the ridge number. Finally, using AFSST, the harmonic/interharmonic signals are decomposed into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). The instantaneous frequency and amplitude of each component are extracted using DEO3S, enabling the accurate detection of harmonics and interharmonics in the power system. Experimental analysis was conducted using simulation data, arc furnace experimental system data, and hardware experimental platform data. The results showed that the proposed method can accurately detect harmonic/interharmonic parameters under different levels of noise interference. Compared with the FSST, EMD, EEMD, and CEEMDAN methods, the amplitude detection accuracy of the proposed method is improved by 0.21%, 0.78%, 0.64%, and 0.75%, respectively, and the amplitude detection accuracy is improved by 1.39%, 3.31%, 2.04%, and 3.14%, respectively.

This study proposes a hybrid landslide displacement prediction model based on multi-strategy integrated optimization to address high nonlinearity and limited accuracy. An improved SFOA with Lévy flight, dynamic exploration adjustment, and stagnation detection enhances global search and convergence. The optimized SFOA (OSFOA) is employed to optimize CEEMDAN using minimum envelope entropy, reducing hyperparameter subjectivity and decomposing cumulative displacement into multi-scale components. The trend term is predicted by a Bayesian-optimized ARIMA, while periodic and stochastic terms are further decomposed by VMD and predicted using Bayesian-optimized SVR. GRA-MIC is applied to select key influencing factors and optimize model inputs. Results show that the proposed method improves accuracy and stability, reducing RMSE by about 82% and 52% compared with SSA-SVR and the baseline single decomposition model, respectively. The study further identifies monthly rainfall change and two-month reservoir level variation as the dominant driving factors for the displacement evolution, providing an effective and interpretable approach for complex landslide early warning.

The triplex reciprocating drilling pump is a critical piece of equipment in drilling platforms, and the operational condition of its core component—the valve body—directly affects the pump’s performance and the stability of the entire system. Therefore, accurate prediction of the valve body’s Remaining Useful Life (RUL) is of great significance for ensuring the safe operation of drilling pumps and enabling predictive maintenance. However, achieving this goal involves two major challenges: (1) The complex degradation process of the valve body, which involves strong impact loads, nonlinear wear, and coupling effects between fluid and mechanical systems, makes it difficult to establish a stable degradation model and achieve accurate RUL prediction. (2) There is a lack of publicly available real-world datasets for research purposes. To address these challenges, we propose CEEMDAN-BWO-optimized Bidirectional LSTM for Remaining Useful Life prediction (CB2-RUL). The method first applies Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) to the raw vibration signals for decomposition and denoising, thereby improving signal stationarity and enhancing feature representation. Next, the Black Widow Optimization (BWO) algorithm is employed to automatically tune key hyperparameters of a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) network. Finally, the optimized BiLSTM captures the temporal evolution patterns of valve-body degradation and produces high-accuracy RUL estimates. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach, we constructed a real-world dataset named VB-Lifecycle, which comprises ten valve bodies from different positions within the equipment and spans the complete lifecycle from pristine condition to failure. Extensive experiments conducted on the VB-Lifecycle dataset demonstrate that the proposed method provides accurate RUL prediction for valve bodies. Full article

Early and accurate prediction of the remaining useful life (RUL), defined as the number of operational cycles a battery can continue to function before reaching its end-of-life threshold, is crucial for improving the reliability of new energy vehicles. To address noise contamination, capacity regeneration effects, and data scarcity in early-stage prognostics, this paper proposes a hybrid framework integrating signal decomposition, time series augmentation, and deep forecasting. The raw capacity sequence is decomposed using Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) to separate multi-scale components. A Transformer-enhanced time series generative adversarial network (HyT-GAN) is then employed to augment decomposed components, improving robustness under small-sample conditions. A CNN-BiGRU predictor is trained for capacity forecasting, and key hyperparameters are tuned via the Dung Beetle Optimizer (DBO). Experiments on NASA and CALCE benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves accurate early-stage prediction using only 20% historical data, with R2 ranging from 0.9643 to 0.9972 and RMSE/MAE below 0.0296/0.0198. These results indicate that the proposed framework can deliver reliable RUL estimates under data-limited and noisy measurement conditions. Full article

Accurate wind power forecasting is critical for enhancing the operational efficiency and stability of electrical power grids. Conventional single-variable signal decomposition forecasting methods ignore the coupling relationship between wind power and multiple meteorological data, thus limiting prediction accuracy. This study proposes an accurate and fast short-term wind power prediction approach based on series-core fusion technology considering multiple meteorological data. In the data preprocessing stage, the multivariate variational mode decomposition (MVMD) algorithm decomposes wind power and meteorological variables into the same predefined number of frequency-aligned intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), thereby enhancing feature representation and improving forecasting accuracy via a more comprehensive and detailed dataset representation. During the training stage, the series-core fused time series (SOFTS) model establishes the connection among wind power channel and other meteorological variable channels for each IMF, achieving fast convergence through its streamlined and parallel structure. In the forecasting stage, the final wind power prediction is generated by the reconstruction of all IMFs. Furthermore, we conducted a comprehensive performance evaluation by comparing the proposed MVMD-SOFTS model with eight alternative models, including the CNN model, the TCN model, the LSTM model, the GRU model, the Transformer model, the SOFTS model, the CEEMDAN-SOFTS model, and the VMD-SOFTS model. The results indicate that MVMD-SOFTS outperformed all other models, demonstrating its effectiveness in capturing the multifaceted relationships in wind power forecasting. Full article

Accurate wind power prediction is of great significance for the dispatch, security, and stable operation of energy systems. It helps enhance the symmetry and coordination between the highly stochastic and volatile nature of the power generation supply side and the stringent requirements for stability and power quality on the grid demand side. To further enhance the accuracy of ultra-short-term wind power forecasting, this paper proposes a novel prediction framework based on multi-layer data decomposition, reconstruction, and a combined prediction model. A multi-stage decomposition and reconstruction technique is first employed to significantly reduce noise interference: the Sparrow Search Algorithm (SSA) is utilized to optimize the parameters for an initial Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD), followed by a secondary decomposition of the high-frequency components using Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN). The resulting components are then reconstructed based on Sample Entropy (SE), effectively improving the quality of the input data. Subsequently, a hybrid prediction model named IMGWO-BiTCN-BiGRU is constructed to extract spatiotemporal bidirectional features from the input sequences. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted using actual measurement data from the Sotavento wind farm in Spain. The results demonstrate that the proposed hybrid model outperforms benchmark models across all evaluation metrics, validating its effectiveness in improving forecasting accuracy and stability.

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is an advanced imaging geodesy technique for detecting and characterizing surface deformation with high spatial resolution and broad spatial coverage. However, as an inherently post-event observation method, InSAR suffers from limited capability for near-real-time and short-term updates of deformation time series. In this paper, we proposed a data-driven adaptive framework for deformation prediction based on a hybrid deep learning method to accurately predict the InSAR-derived deformation time series and take the Xi’erguazi−Mawo landslide complex (XMLC) as a case study. The InSAR-derived time series was initially decomposed into trend and periodic components with a two-step decomposition process, which were thereafter modeled separately to enhance the characterization of motion kinematics and prediction accuracy. After retrieving the observations from the multi-temporal InSAR method, two-step signal decomposition was then performed using the Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) and Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD). The decomposed trend and periodic components were further evaluated using statistical hypothesis testing to verify their significance and reliability. Compared with the single-decomposition model, the further decomposition leads to an overall improvement in prediction accuracy, i.e., the Mean Absolute Errors (MAEs) and the Root Mean Square Errors (RMSEs) are reduced by 40–49% and 36–42%, respectively. Subsequently, the Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network and the proposed CNN-BiLSTM-SelfAttention (CBS) models were constructed to predict the trend and periodic variations, respectively. The CNN and self-attention help to extract local features in time series and strengthen the ability to capture global dependencies and key fluctuation patterns. Compared with the single network model in prediction, the MAEs and RMSEs are reduced by 22–57% and 4–33%, respectively. Finally, the two predicted components were integrated to generate the fused deformation prediction results. Ablation experiments and comparative experiments show that the proposed method has superior ability. Through rapid and accurate prediction of InSAR-derived deformation time series, this research could contribute to the early-warning systems of slope instabilities. Full article

This study proposes a hybrid forecast-enabled adaptive crowbar coordination strategy to enhance low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) performance of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbines. A unified electro-mechanical model in the αβ/dq frames with dual closed-loop control for rotor- and grid-side converters is built in MATLAB/Simulink (R2018b), and LVRT constraints on current safety and DC-link energy are explicitly formulated, yielding an engineering crowbar-resistance range of 0.4–0.8 p.u. On the forecasting side, a CEEMDAN-based decomposition–modeling–reconstruction pipeline is adopted: high- and mid-frequency components are predicted by a dual-stream Informer–LSTM, while low-frequency components are modeled by XGBoost. Using six months of wind-farm data, the hybrid forecaster achieves best or tied-best MSE, RMSE, MAE, and R2 compared with five representative baselines. Forecasted power, ramp rate, and residual-based uncertainty are mapped to overcurrent and DC-link overvoltage risk indices, which adapt crowbar triggering, holding, and release in coordination with converter control. In a 9 MW three-phase deep-sag scenario, the strategy confines DC-link voltage within ±3% of nominal, shortens re-synchronization from ≈0.35 s to ≈0.15 s, reduces rotor-current peaks by ≈5.1%, and raises the reactive-support peak to 1.7 Mvar, thereby improving LVRT safety margins and grid-friendliness without hardware modification.

GNSS buoys are essential for real-time elevation monitoring in coastal waterways, yet the vertical coordinate time series are frequently contaminated by complex non-stationary noise, and existing denoising methods often rely on empirical parameter settings that compromise reliability. This paper proposes GVMD-NLM, a hybrid denoising framework optimized by an improved Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO). The method introduces an adaptive convergence factor decay function derived from the Sigmoid function to automatically determine the optimal parameters (K and α) for Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD). Sample Entropy (SE) is then employed to identify low-frequency effective signals, while the remaining high-frequency noise components are processed via Non-Local Means (NLM) filtering to recover residual information while suppressing stochastic disturbances. Experimental results from two datasets at the Dongguan Waterway Wharf demonstrate that GVMD-NLM consistently outperforms SSA, CEEMDAN, VMD, and GWO-VMD. In Dataset One, GVMD-NLM reduced the RMSE by 26.04% (vs. SSA), 17.87% (vs. CEEMDAN), 24.28% (vs. VMD), and 13.47% (vs. GWO-VMD), with corresponding SNR improvements of 11.13%, 7.00%, 10.18%, and 5.05%. In Dataset Two, the method achieved RMSE reductions of 28.87% (vs. SSA), 17.12% (vs. CEEMDAN), 18.45% (vs. VMD), and 10.26% (vs. GWO-VMD), with SNR improvements of 10.48%, 5.52%, 6.02%, and 3.11%, respectively. The denoised signal maintains high fidelity, with correlation coefficients (R) reaching 0.9798. This approach provides an objective and automated solution for GNSS data denoising, offering a more accurate data foundation for waterway hydrodynamics research and water level monitoring.
