Most Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) follow the message-passing scheme. Residual connection is an effective strategy to tackle GNNs' over-smoothing issue and performance reduction issue on non-homophilic networks. Unfortunately, the coarse-grained residual connection still suffers from class-imbalanced over-smoothing issue, due to the fixed and linear combination of topology and attribute in node representation learning. To make the combination flexible to capture complicated relationship, this paper reveals that the residual connection needs to be node-dependent, layer-dependent, and related to both topology and attribute. To alleviate the difficulty in specifying complicated relationship, this paper presents a novel perspective on GNNs, i.e., the representations of one node in different layers can be seen as a sequence of states. From this perspective, existing residual connections are not flexible enough for sequence modeling. Therefore, a novel node-dependent residual connection, i.e., Long Short-Term Graph Memory Network (LSTGM) is proposed to employ Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), to model the sequence of node representation. To make the graph topology fully employed, LSTGM innovatively enhances the updated memory and three gates with graph topology. A speedup version is also proposed for effective training. Experimental evaluations on real-world datasets demonstrate their effectiveness in preventing over-smoothing issue and handling networks with heterophily.

Recent study findings and a threshold of 0.05%, as well as 95% confidence interval and standard parameter estimates, were castoff in a study 47 samples divided into two groups calculated using the G-power of 80%. Since the novel Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) algorithm and local invariant methods have achieved an accuracy of 93.83% in predicting the activity analysis, this research needs to obtain improved accuracy to perform activity prediction by using the Decision Tree algorithm. When applied to human activity analysis, the Novel Long Short Term Memory technique was shown to have an accuracy of 90.12 percent, with a 95% confidence interval including the value 0.045 (p 0.05). Researchers found that when comparing two algorithms for analyzing human behaviour, Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) performed much better than Decision Tree (DT).

Abstract: This research is driven by the challenges faced by Universitas Lancang Kuning (UNILAK) in attracting applicants amidst intense competition, especially after the government's policy opened independent pathways to State Universities (PTN) from 2022-2023, which impacted private university applicant numbers. To address this and support strategic planning, this study aims to predict the trend of prospective students applying to all study programs at UNILAK for the period 2025-2027. Two time series models were employed: ARIMA (AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average) and LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory). Applicant data from 2019 to 2024 was used to build the model. The Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test confirmed the data's stationarity with a p-value of 0.0. ACF and PACF analyses determined the ARIMA parameters as p=1, d=1, q=1. The LSTM model was trained to capture more complex data patterns. ARIMA predictions for 2025, 2026, and 2027 are 3298.66, 3362.33, and 3371.30, respectively. LSTM predictions for the same years are 3335.64, 3476.52, and 3518.42. Evaluation using Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) showed ARIMA (RMSE=588.72) to be more accurate than LSTM (RMSE=653.96). Nevertheless, LSTM provided a more optimistic prediction. This study concludes that ARIMA is better suited for short-term planning, while LSTM can be used for more ambitious long-term strategies.

Research on sentiment analysis in recent years has increased. However, in sentiment analysis research there are still few ideas about the handling of negation, one of which is in the Indonesian sentence. This results in sentences that contain elements of the word negation have not found the exact polarity.The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of the negation word in Indonesian. Based on positive, neutral and negative classes, using attention-based Long Short Term Memory and word2vec feature extraction method with continuous bag-of-word (CBOW) architecture. The dataset used is data from Twitter. Model performance is seen in the accuracy value.The use of word2vec with CBOW architecture and the addition of layer attention to the Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) and Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory (BiLSTM) methods obtained an accuracy of 78.16% and for BiLSTM resulted in an accuracy of 79.68%. whereas in the FSW algorithm is 73.50% and FWL 73.79%. It can be concluded that attention based BiLSTM has the highest accuracy, but the addition of layer attention in the Long Short Term Memory method is not too significant for negation handling. because the addition of the attention layer cannot determine the words that you want to pay attention to.

Simple SummaryForecasting dengue cases often face challenges from (1) time-effectiveness due to time-consuming satellite data downloading and processing, (2) weak spatial representation due to data dependence on administrative unit-based statistics or weather station-based observations, and (3) stagnant accuracy without historical dengue cases. With the advance of the geospatial big data cloud computing in Google Earth Engine and deep learning, this study proposed an efficient framework of dengue prediction at an epidemiological week basis using geospatial big data analysis in Google Earth Engine and Long Short Term Memory modeling. We focused on the dengue epidemics in the Federal District of Brazil during 2007–2019. Based on Google Earth Engine and epidemiological calendar, we computed the weekly composite for each dengue driving factor, and spatially aggregated the pixel values into dengue transmission areas to generate the time series of driving factors. A multi-step-ahead Long Short Term Memory modeling was used, and the time-differenced natural log-transformed dengue cases and the time series of driving factors were considered as outcomes and explantary factors, respectively, with two modeling scenarios (with and without historical cases). The performance is better when historical cases were used, and the 5-weeks-ahead forecast has the best performance.Timely and accurate forecasts of dengue cases are of great importance for guiding disease prevention strategies, but still face challenges from (1) time-effectiveness due to time-consuming satellite data downloading and processing, (2) weak spatial representation capability due to data dependence on administrative unit-based statistics or weather station-based observations, and (3) stagnant accuracy without the application of historical case information. Geospatial big data, cloud computing platforms (e.g., Google Earth Engine, GEE), and emerging deep learning algorithms (e.g., long short term memory, LSTM) provide new opportunities for advancing these efforts. Here, we focused on the dengue epidemics in the urban agglomeration of the Federal District of Brazil (FDB) during 2007–2019. A new framework was proposed using geospatial big data analysis in the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform and long short term memory (LSTM) modeling for dengue case forecasts over an epidemiological week basis. We first defined a buffer zone around an impervious area as the main area of dengue transmission by considering the impervious area as a human-dominated area and used the maximum distance of the flight range of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus as a buffer distance. Those zones were used as units for further attribution analyses of dengue epidemics by aggregating the pixel values into the zones. The near weekly composite of potential driving factors was generated in GEE using the epidemiological weeks during 2007–2019, from the relevant geospatial data with daily or sub-daily temporal resolution. A multi-step-ahead LSTM model was used, and the time-differenced natural log-transformed dengue cases were used as outcomes. Two modeling scenarios (with and without historical dengue cases) were set to examine the potential of historical information on dengue forecasts. The results indicate that the performance was better when historical dengue cases were used and the 5-weeks-ahead forecast had the best performance, and the peak of a large outbreak in 2019 was accurately forecasted. The proposed framework in this study suggests the potential of the GEE platform, the LSTM algorithm, as well as historical information for dengue risk forecasting, which can easily be extensively applied to other regions or globally for timely and practical dengue forecasts.

Software effort estimation (SEE) is an important process for predicting the effort required to develop or maintain software projects. It is considered one of the difficult challenges for software engineering because the more accurate the estimation, the greater the chances of success in developing software projects to complete and deliver them within the specified scheduling and budget. The diversity in software projects led to the use of many techniques to estimate the effort. The main objective of the research is to find the best technique to get the estimated effort as close to the real effort, using Machine learning Algorithms, artificial neural network Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) and the artificial neural network Stacked Long Short-Term Memory (Stacked_LSTM), with six data sets are China, Kitchenham, Kemerer, Cocomo 81, Albrecht, Decharnais, and comparing the performance of the two machine learning algorithms performance, Neuralnet and Lasso from previous research, used the same data sets and using the same evaluation metrics, which are: the root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and R_Squared. The results demonstrated the superiority of the Stacked _LSTM algorithm by all metrics with the dataset of China, Kemerer and Albrecht, while in the data sets, Descharnais and Kitchenham, the LSTM algorithm outperformed the rest of the methods. While in the Cocomo 81 dataset, Neuralnet algorithm outperformed the rest of the techniques used, but the best rating was obtained. It is for Stacked _LSTM algorithm with China data.

Gender classification by computer is essential for applications in many domains, such as human-computer interaction or biometric system applications. Generally, gender classification by computer can be done by using a face photo, fingerprint, or voice. However, researchers have demonstrated the potential of the electrocardiogram (ECG) as a biometric recognition and gender classification. In facilitating the process of gender classification based on ECG signals, a method is needed, namely Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM). Researchers use these two methods because of the ability of these two methods to deal with sequential problems such as ECG signals. The inputs used in both methods generally use one-dimensional data with a generally large number of signal features. The dataset used in this study has a total of 10,000 features. This research was conducted on changing the input shape to determine its effect on classification performance in the LSTM and Bi-LSTM methods. Each method will be tested with input with 11 different shapes. The best accuracy results obtained are 79.03% with an input shape size of 100×100 in the LSTM method. Moreover, the best accuracy in the Bi-LSTM method with input shapes of 250×40 is 74.19%. The main contribution of this study is to share the impact of various input shape sizes to enhance the performance of gender classification based on ECG signals using LSTM and Bi-LSTM methods. Additionally, this study contributes for selecting an appropriate method between LSTM and Bi-LSTM on ECG signals for gender classification.

SummaryFor the past few years, Bitcoin plays a vital role in both the economical and financial industries. In order to gain a huge return on investment, the investors are eager to forecast the future value of Bitcoin. However, Bitcoin price variation is quite nonlinear and chaotic in nature, so it creates more difficulty in forecasting future value. Researchers found that the multiplicative long short term memory (LSTM) model will be more efficient for predicting those complex variations. So, target mission is about to develop an optimized multiplicative LSTM with an Attention mechanism using Technical Indicators derived from historical data. A modified cuckoo search optimization model is proposed to tune the hyperparameter of the Deep Learning model. This novel optimization algorithm eliminates the local optimum and slower convergence problem of the cuckoo search optimization algorithm. Deibold Mariano test is performed to statistically evaluate the proposed model and it is inferred that the recommended methodology is statistically fit. Regression metrics such as root mean square error, mean square error and mean absolute error has been used for comparative evaluation with related benchmark techniques such as genetic algorithm optimized LSTM (GA–LSTM), particle swarm optimized LSTM (PSO–LSTM) and cuckoo search optimized LSTM (CSO–LSTM). The empirical result shows that the recommended methodology outperforms the taken benchmark models and provides better accuracy.

In this study, different kinds of hybrid Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) algorithms with forecasting models including Random Forest (RF), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks, are developed to estimate the mean daily wind speed at the height of 2 m in Ağrı city (WS st12 ), Turkey. In these hybrid models, different layer networks of single and integrated LSTM and GRU models include general single LSTM, general single GRU, simple coupled LSTM-GRU, and novel coupled LSTM with GRU through Addition layer (i.e., LSTM + GRU model) structures are applied. The most effective parameters on the WS st12 , from a list of on-site potential meteorological parameters and wind speed values in its adjacent cities of Ağrı province from Jan 2015–Dec 2019 through the Pearson correlation coefficient method, are determined. In the hybrid CEEMDAN and DNNs-based models, State activation functions (SAF), numbers of hidden neurons (NHN), dropout rates (P-rate), and network structural architect (NSA) as the meta-parameters are tuned for lessening the impact of overfitting/underfitting dilemmas and improving modeling performance. According to the comparison plots, performance evaluation measures, and total learnable parameter (TLP), the novel developed hybrid CEEMDAN-RF-(LSTM + GRU) model is confirmed as the best approach with an R 2 of 0.86 while, in the optimal scenario using the RF model, R 2 was 0.47. Graphical Abstract Based on the graphical snapshot, this study focuses on estimating daily mean wind speed at a 2-meter height in Ağrı, Turkey, using hybrid data-driven models. The research integrates the Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) algorithm with advanced forecasting techniques, including Random Forest (RF), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) neural networks. The modeling framework explores various configurations, such as standalone LSTM and GRU, coupled LSTM-GRU structures, and a novel LSTM + GRU model using an Addition layer to enhance predictive accuracy.

Many countries around the globe, including Tanzania, are investing in renewable energy, partly because of the need to increase electric power generation and meet the ever-increasing electricity demands, and partly because of the need to combat global climate change caused by carbon emissions from fossil fuel-based electricity production. Kishapu Solar Project, located in Kishapu District, Shinyanga Region, Tanzania, is one of the renewable energy projects with a planned generation of 150 MW of electric power once completed, using solar photovoltaic technology. Accurate forecasting of solar radiation is important in managing and maintaining solar energy plants. Inaccurate forecasting of solar radiation can lead to poor harvest of solar energy and poor management of solar energy plants, which directly impacts electricity contribution to the national electricity grid. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and its variant, PeepHole LSTM, are examples of Deep Learning models that can be used to predict solar radiation. The purpose of PeepHole LSTM is to introduce “peephole” connections in the LSTM model, which allow LSTM gates to directly inspect memory cell state and hence have richer information to process. However, there is still a research gap on the impact of “peephole” connections on the prediction performance of the LSTM model, especially in the context of forecasting solar radiation in Kishapu District, where the Kishapu Solar Project is located. The purpose of this study is to fill this research gap by developing both LSTM and PeepHole LSTM models and comparing their performances in forecasting solar radiation in Kishapu District. The 14-year Kishapu District daily solar radiation (Downward Shortwave Radiation) dataset was first pre-processed by scaling (normalizing) it using Standard Scaler and then split into training set (the first 70%), validation set (the next 15%) and test set (the last 15%) before being utilized to train and test the developed LSTM and PeepHole LSTM models. Both LSTM and PeepHole LSTM models used the previous 5 days' solar radiation values as inputs to predict the output (next day (6th day) solar radiation value). The trained and better-performing model between the two was finally saved in .h5 format and integrated with a Gradio based Web Application to provide a user interface for officials in Kishapu District and at Kishapu Solar Project to predict daily solar radiation. The findings from performance evaluation revealed that the LSTM model outperformed the PeepHole LSTM model in predicting solar radiation by achieving test Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) scores of 26.22 W/m2 and 36.65 W/m2, respectively, compared to MAE and RMSE scores of 30.84 W/m2 and 41.88 W/m2, respectively, achieved by the PeepHole LSTM model, concluding that “peephole” connections reduce the performance of the LSTM model rather than increasing it when used to forecast solar radiation in Kishapu District. This study’s recommendation to Artificial Intelligence (AI) software developers and researchers is to use the LSTM rather than the PeepHole LSTM Deep Learning model when forecasting solar radiation in Kishapu District and in locations with similar climatic conditions

Handoff mechanisms are very important in fifth-generation (5G) mobile networks because of the cellular architecture employed to maximize spectrum utilization. Together with call admission control (CAC) mechanisms, they enable better optimization of bandwidth use. The primary objective of the research presented in this article is to analyze traffic levels, aiming to optimize traffic management and handling. This article considers the two most popular CAC mechanisms: the resource reservation mechanism and the threshold mechanism. It presents an analytical approach to occupancy distribution and blocking probability calculation in 5G mobile networks, incorporating connection handoff and CAC mechanisms for managing multiple traffic streams generated by multi-service sources. Due to the fact that the developed analytical model is an approximate model, its accuracy was also examined. For this purpose, the results of analytical calculations of the blocking probability in a group of 5G cells are compared with the simulation data. This paper is an extended version of our paper published in 17th ConTEL 2023.

Polarimetric information is of great importance for radar target recognition. Conventional polarimetric features are hand-designed based on scattering mechanism. In this study, a novel polarimetric target recognition framework based on long–short-term memory (LSTM) network is proposed. The different polarimetric channels are regarded as the sequential inputs in LSTM, and the features are extracted automatically. Experimental results on dual-polarised high-resolution range profile recognition demonstrate that the features learnt by LSTM are more discriminating than conventional features. The recognition performance of the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods as well.
