In order to improve the accuracy of tool wear prediction and enhance the real-time application in industrial sites, a tool wear prediction method based on edge data processing and CNN-BiGRU neural network is proposed. This method first implements data preprocessing on edge nodes, effectively reducing the amount of data transmission to avoid network link congestion. After that, the CNN-BiGRU neural network was deployed in the cloud for model training. Experimental results show that the tool wear prediction method based on edge data processing and CNN-BiGRU neural network has good real-time performance and high prediction accuracy in simulated industrial field applications.

Mixed pixels are a ubiquitous problem in remote sensing images. Spectral unmixing has been used widely for mixed pixel analysis. However, up to now, most spectral unmixing methods require endmembers and cannot consider fully intraclass spectral variation. The recently proposed spatiotemporal spectral unmixing (STSU) method copes with the aforementioned problems through exploitation of the available temporal information. However, this method requires coarse-to-fine spatial image pairs both before and after the prediction time and is, thus, not suitable for important real-time applications (i.e., where the fine spatial resolution data after the prediction time are unknown). In this article, we proposed a real-time STSU (RSTSU) method for real-time monitoring. RSTSU requires only a single coarseto-fine spatial resolution image pair before, and temporally closest to, the prediction time, coupled with the coarse image at the prediction time, to extract samples automatically to train a learning model. By fully incorporating the multiscale spatiotemporal information, the RSTSU method inherits the key advantages of STSU; it does not need endmembers and can account for intraclass spectral variation. More importantly, RSTSU is suitable for real-time analysis and, thus, facilitates the timely monitoring of land cover changes. The effectiveness of the method was validated by experiments on four Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) datasets. RSTSU utilizes and enriches the theory underpinning the advanced STSU method and enhances greatly the applicability of spectral unmixing for time-series data.

Recently, the method of spatiotemporal spectral unmixing (STSU ) was developed to fully explore multi-scale temporal information (e.g., MODIS –Landsat image pairs) for spectral unmixing of coarse time series (e.g., MODIS data). To further enhance the application for timely monitoring, the real-time STSU( RSTSU) method was developed for real-time data. In RSTSU, we usually choose a spatially complete MODIS–Landsat image pair as auxiliary data. Due to cloud contamination, the temporal distance between the required effective auxiliary data and the real-time data to be unmixed can be large, causing great land cover changes and uncertainty in the extracted unchanged pixels (i.e., training samples). In this article, to extract more reliable training samples, we propose choosing the auxiliary MODIS–Landsat data temporally closest to the prediction time. To deal with the cloud contamination in the auxiliary data, we propose an augmented sample-based RSTSU( ARSTSU) method. ARSTSU selects and augments the training samples extracted from the valid (i.e., non-cloud) area to synthesize more training samples, and then trains an effective learning model to predict the proportions. ARSTSU was validated using two MODIS data sets in the experiments. ARSTSU expands the applicability of RSTSU by solving the problem of cloud contamination in temporal neighbors in actual situations.
