Neural topic models (NTMs) based on variational autoencoders (VAEs) have emerged as a scalable and flexible alternative to classical probabilistic models for uncovering latent thematic structures in text corpora. However, most existing NTMs either overlook the geometric structure of word embeddings or rely on Euclidean priors that are poorly aligned with ...

This work implements deep learning models to capture non-linear and complex data behavior in aluminum price data. Deep learning models include the long short-term memory (LSTM) and deep feedforward neural networks (FFNN). The support vector regression (SVR) is employed as a base model for comparison. Each predictive model is tuned by using two different o ...

Cortical oscillations across sleep-wake cycles are essential for coordinating functional brain dynamics. High-density electroencephalography (HDEEG) combined with electrical source imaging (ESI) provides a noninvasive approach to map cortical dynamics; however, its ability to capture spatial ongo ...

Leaf area index (LAI) is a key indicator of crop growth and development and is widely used in both agricultural research and precision farming applications. PlanetScope imagery is generally used for monitoring crop growth due to its high revisit frequency, broad spatial coverage, and cost-effective access to consistent high-resolution multispectral data. ...
