Development of a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network Model for Television Spectrum Radio Environment Mapping by Oluwatobi Emmanuel Dare, Kennedy Okokpujie, Emmanuel Adetiba, Olabode Idowu-Bismark, Abdultaofeek Abayomi, Raymond Jules Kala, Emmanuel Owolabi, Udeme Christopher Ukpong

“…The model performance was evaluated using mean square error (MSE) and mean absolute error (MAE). 12 different experiments were carried out varying the training parameters of the CGAN architecture to obtain an optimal model. The achieved root mean square error (RMSE) is 0.1145dBm and MAE is 0.0820dBm, which shows the deviation between the ground truth and the generated REM. …”

A PSO-XGBoost Model for Predicting the Compressive Strength of Cement–Soil Mixing Pile Considering Field Environment Simulation by Jiagui Xiong, Yangqing Gong, Xianghua Liu, Yan Li, Liangjie Chen, Cheng Liao, Chaochao Zhang

“…A cement–soil preparation system considering actual immersion conditions was established, based on controlling the initial water content state of the foundation soil before pile formation and applying submerged conditions post-formation. Utilizing data mining on 84 sets of experimental data with various preparation parameter combinations, a prediction model for the as-formed strength of CSM Pile was developed based on the Particle Swarm Optimization-Extreme Gradient Boosting (PSO-XGBoost) algorithm. …”
