Epilepsy is a common nervous system disease that is characterized by recurrent seizures. An electroencephalogram (EEG) records neural activity, and it is commonly used for the diagnosis of epilepsy. To achieve accurate detection of epileptic seizures, an automatic detection approach of epileptic seizures, integrating complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), named CEEMD-XGBoost, is proposed. Firstly, the decomposition method, CEEMD, which is capable of effectively reducing the influence of mode mixing and end effects, was utilized to divide raw EEG signals into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and residues. Secondly, the multi-domain features were extracted from raw signals and the decomposed components, and they were further selected according to the importance scores of the extracted features. Finally, XGBoost was applied to develop the epileptic seizure detection model. Experiments were conducted on two benchmark epilepsy EEG datasets, named the Bonn dataset and the CHB-MIT (Children’s Hospital Boston and Massachusetts Institute of Technology) dataset, to evaluate the performance of our proposed CEEMD-XGBoost. The extensive experimental results indicated that, compared with some previous EEG classification models, CEEMD-XGBoost can significantly enhance the detection performance of epileptic seizures in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy.

This paper presents an adaptive noise reduction method based on Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (CEEMD) to address the non-stationary characteristics and noise interference present in friction vibration signals from mechanical equipment. and friction testing machine simulation experiments. The performance of CEEMD and Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) was compared through MATLAB R2023b simulations and experiments conducted on a friction testing machine. CEEMD achieved a computational efficiency 85.6% higher than that of EEMD and effectively reduced mode aliasing. Among them, the adaptive correlation coefficient screening method performed well in signal reconstruction, and the high correlation (correlation coefficient > 0.8) between the denoised signal and the laboratory noise signal was verified using the multi-scale permutation entropy (MPE) theory, which is of great significance for early diagnosis of mechanical faults, prediction of equipment life and timely maintenance decisions.

High-accuracy short-term electric load forecasting is essential for ensuring the security of power systems and enhancing energy efficiency. Power load sequences are characterized by strong randomness, non-stationarity, and nonlinearity over time. To improve the precision and efficiency of short-term load forecasting in microgrids, a hybrid predictive model combining Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (CEEMD) and a multi-strategy enhanced Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks has been proposed. Initially, this study employs CEEMD to decompose the short-term electric load time series. Subsequently, a multi-strategy enhanced WOA with chaotic initialization and reverse learning is introduced to enhance the search capability of model parameters and avoid entrapment in local optima. Finally, considering the distinct characteristics of each component, the multi-strategy improved WOA is utilized to optimize the LSTM model, establishing individual predictive models for each component, and the predictions are then aggregated. The proposed method’s forecasting accuracy has been validated through multiple case studies using the UC San Diego microgrid data, demonstrating its reliability and providing a solid foundation for microgrid system planning and stable operation.

Crude oil is one of the main energy sources and its prices have gained increasing attention due to its important role in the world economy. Accurate prediction of crude oil prices is an important issue not only for ordinary investors, but also for the whole society. To achieve the accurate prediction of nonstationary and nonlinear crude oil price time series, an adaptive hybrid ensemble learning paradigm integrating complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD), autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) and sparse Bayesian learning (SBL), namely CEEMD-ARIMA&SBL-SBL (CEEMD-A&S-SBL), is developed in this study. Firstly, the decomposition method CEEMD, which can reduce the end effects and mode mixing, was employed to decompose the original crude oil price time series into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and one residue. Then, ARIMA and SBL with combined kernels were applied to predict target values for the residue and each single IMF independently. Finally, the predicted values of the above two models for each component were adaptively selected based on the training precision, and then aggregated as the final forecasting results using SBL without kernel-tricks. Experiments were conducted on the crude oil spot prices of the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent crude oil to evaluate the performance of the proposed CEEMD-A&S-SBL. The experimental results demonstrated that, compared with some state-of-the-art prediction models, CEEMD-A&S-SBL can significantly improve the prediction accuracy of crude oil prices in terms of the root mean squared error (RMSE), the mean absolute percent error (MAPE), and the directional statistic (Dstat).

Predicting rainfall-induced landslide displacement is one of the important means of disaster prevention and mitigation. Considering the Tanjiawan landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir area as the research object, the daily rainfall and soil moisture content as influencing factors, complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) was used to decompose the time series of displacement and influencing factors, followed by K-means clustering to determine the periodic displacement, random displacement, trend displacement, and their corresponding influencing factor components after decomposition. The Grey System theory was used to test the correlation between the influencing factor and decomposition displacement, and the least squares support vector machine based on particle swarm optimization (PSO-LSSVM) and the least square method were used to predict the decomposition displacement. The results showed that after decomposition and clustering, the grey relational degree between the influencing factor and the decomposition displacement is up to 0.91, which showed that the selection of the displacement decomposition and the influencing factor is reliable. A coefficient of determination of 1.00 indicated that the quadratic least squares function model can predict the trend displacement well, and the root mean squared error value of the PSO-LSSVM model predicting displacement did not exceed 21.62 mm. At the same time, compared with the prediction results without considering water content as the influencing factor, the results show that the prediction effect considering water content as the influencing factor is very reliable, and the model in this study can achieve the displacement prediction of rainfall-type landslides satisfactorily.

To improve the accuracy of park load forecasting, a combined forecasting method for short-term park load is proposed based on complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD), sample entropy, the satin bower bird optimization algorithm (SBO), and the least squares support vector regression (LSSVR) model. Firstly, aiming at the random fluctuation of park load series, the modes with different characteristic scales are divided into low-frequency and high-frequency according to the calculation of sample entropy, which is based on the decomposition of historical park load data modes by CEEMD. The low-frequency is forecast by multiple linear regression (MLR), and the high-frequency component is the training input of the LSSVR forecasting model. Secondly, the SBO algorithm is adopted to optimize the regularization parameters and the kernel function width of LSSVR. Then, the park load forecasting model of each sequence component is built. The forecast output of each sequence component is superimposed to get the final park load forecast value. Finally, a case study of a park in Liaoning Province has been performed with the results proving that the proposed method significantly outperforms the state-of-art in reducing the difficulty and complexity of forecasting effectively, also eliminating the defect of large reconstruction error greatly through the decomposed original sequence by the ensemble empirical model.

Time series classification (TSC) is always a very important research topic in many real-world application domains. MultiRocket has been shown to be an efficient approach for TSC, by adding multiple pooling operators and a first-order difference transformation. To classify time series with higher accuracy, this study proposes a hybrid ensemble learning algorithm combining Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (CEEMD) with improved MultiRocket, namely CEEMD-MultiRocket. Firstly, we utilize the decomposition method CEEMD to decompose raw time series into three sub-series: two Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) and one residue. Then, the selection of these decomposed sub-series is executed on the known training set by comparing the classification accuracy of each IMF with that of raw time series using a given threshold. Finally, we optimize convolution kernels and pooling operators, and apply our improved MultiRocket to the raw time series, the selected decomposed sub-series and the first-order difference of the raw time series to generate the final classification results. Experiments were conducted on 109 datasets from the UCR time series repository to assess the classification performance of our CEEMD-MultiRocket. The extensive experimental results demonstrate that our CEEMD-MultiRocket has the second-best average rank on classification accuracy against a spread of the state-of-the-art (SOTA) TSC models. Specifically, CEEMD-MultiRocket is significantly more accurate than MultiRocket even though it requires a relatively long time, and is competitive with the currently most accurate model, HIVE-COTE 2.0, only with 1.4% of the computing load of the latter.

With the rapid development of China’s civil aviation, the flow of air traffic in terminal areas is also increasing. Short-term air traffic flow prediction is of great significance for the accurate implementation of air traffic flow management. To enhance the accuracy of short-term air traffic flow prediction, this paper proposes a short-term air traffic flow prediction model based on complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) and long short-term memory (LSTM) of the Bayesian optimization algorithm and data differential processing. Initially, the model performs CEEMD on the short-term air traffic flow series. Subsequently, to improve prediction accuracy, the data differencing is employed to stabilize the time series. Finally, the smoothed sequences are, respectively, input into the LSTM network model optimized by the Bayesian optimization algorithm for prediction. After data reconstruction, the final short-term flow prediction result is obtained. The model proposed in this paper is verified by using the data from Shanghai Pudong International Airport. The results show that the evaluation indexes of the prediction accuracy and fitting degree of the model, RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), MAE (Mean Absolute Error), and R2 (Coefficient of Determination), are 0.336, 0.239, and 97.535%, respectively. Compared to other classical time-series prediction models, the prediction accuracy is greatly improved, which can provide a useful reference for short-term air traffic flow prediction.

Severe scintillations degrade the satellite signal intensity below the fade margin of satellite receivers thereby resulting in failure of communication, positioning, and navigational services. The performance of satellite receivers is obviously restricted by ionospheric scintillation effects, which may lead to signal degradation primarily due to the refraction, reflection, and scattering of radio signals. Thus, there is a need to develop an ionospheric scintillation detection and mitigation technique for robust satellite signal receivers. Hence, variational mode decomposition (VMD) is proposed. VMD addresses the problem of ionospheric scintillation effects on global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals by extracting the noise from the radio signals in combination with multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA). MFDFA helps as a criterion designed to detect and distinguish the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) into noisy (scintillated) and noise-free (non-scintillated) IMF signal components using the MFDFA threshold. The results of the proposed method are promising, reliable, and have the potential to mitigate ionospheric scintillation effects on both the synthetic (simulated) and real GNSS data obtained from Manado station (latitude 1.34° S and longitude 124.82° E), Indonesia. From the results, the effectiveness of VMD-MFDFA over complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with MFDFA (CEEMD-MFDFA) is an indication of better performance.
