Graph attention informer for long-term traffic flow prediction under the impact of sports events by Song, Yaofeng, Luo, Ruikang, Zhou, Tianchen, Zhou, Changgen, Su, Rong

“…However, due to the complexity of traffic maps and external factors, such as sports events, these models cannot perform well in long-term prediction. In order to enhance the accuracy and robustness of the model on long-term time series prediction, a Graph Attention Informer (GAT-Informer) structure is proposed by combining the graph attention layer and informer layer to capture the intrinsic features and external factors in spatial-temporal correlation. …”

Molecular beam epitaxy of dilute nitride indium antimonide materials for long wavelength infrared application by Pham, Huynh Tram

“…By adding a small amount of N into InSb, the band gap is found to decrease and this is useful for long wavelength infrared detector application. The main objectives of this thesis are to investigate the effect of N incorporation in InSbN and control the N incorporation to obtain the desired band gap. …”
