An End-to-End Deep Learning Framework for Fault Detection in Marine Machinery.

The Industrial Internet of Things has enabled the integration and analysis of vast volumes of data across various industries, with the maritime sector being no exception. Advances in cloud computing and deep learning (DL) are continuously reshaping the industry, particularly in optimizing maritime operations such as Predictive Maintenance (PdM). In this study, we propose a novel DL-based framework focusing on the fault detection task of PdM in marine operations, leveraging time-series data from sensors installed on shipboard machinery. The framework is designed as a scalable and cost-efficient software solution, encompassing all stages from data collection and pre-processing at the edge to the deployment and lifecycle management of DL models. The proposed DL architecture utilizes Graph Attention Networks (GATs) to extract spatio-temporal information from the time-series data and provides explainable predictions through a feature-wise scoring mechanism. Additionally, a custom evaluation metric with real-world applicability is employed, prioritizing both prediction accuracy and the timeliness of fault identification. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework, we conduct experiments on three types of open-source datasets relevant to PdM: electrical data, bearing datasets, and data from water circulation experiments.

Multi-Modal Song Mood Detection with Deep Learning.

The production and consumption of music in the contemporary era results in big data generation and creates new needs for automated and more effective management of these data. Automated music mood detection constitutes an active task in the field of MIR (Music Information Retrieval). The first approach to correlating music and mood was made in 1990 by Gordon Burner who researched the way that musical emotion affects marketing. In 2016, Lidy and Schiner trained a CNN for the task of genre and mood classification based on audio. In 2018, Delbouys et al. developed a multi-modal Deep Learning system combining CNN and LSTM architectures and concluded that multi-modal approaches overcome single channel models. This work will examine and compare single channel and multi-modal approaches for the task of music mood detection applying Deep Learning architectures. Our first approach tries to utilize the audio signal and the lyrics of a musical track separately, while the second approach applies a uniform multi-modal analysis to classify the given data into mood classes. The available data we will use to train and evaluate our models comes from the MoodyLyrics dataset, which includes 2000 song titles with labels from four mood classes, {happy, angry, sad, relaxed}. The result of this work leads to a uniform prediction of the mood that represents a music track and has usage in many applications.
