Abstract: Methods and systems for preventing spacecraft damage include identifying a space weather event that corresponds to a spacecraft system failure. A spacecraft system is determined that causes the spacecraft system failure, triggered by the space weather event. A corrective action is performed on the determined spacecraft system to prevent spacecraft system failures from being triggered by future space weather events.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting anomaly in video data are provided. The system includes a generator that receives past video frames and extracts spatio-temporal features of the past video frames and generates frames. The generator includes fully convolutional transformer based generative adversarial networks (FCT-GANs). The system includes an image discriminator that discriminates generated frames and real frames. The system also includes a video discriminator that discriminates generated video and real video. The generator trains a fully convolutional transformer network (FCTN) model and determines an anomaly score of at least one test video based on a prediction residual map from the FCTN model.

Abstract: A method detects anomalies in a system having sensors for collecting multivariate sensor data including discrete event sequences. The method determines, using a NMT model, pairwise relationships among the sensors based on the data. The method forms sequences of characters into sentences on a per sensor basis, by treating each discrete variable in the sequences as a character in natural language. The method translates, using the NMT, the sentences of source sensors to sentences of target sensors to obtain a translation score that quantifies a pairwise relationship strength therebetween. The method aggregates the pairwise relationships into a multivariate relationship graph having nodes representing sensors and edges denoted by the translation score for a sensor pair connected thereto to represent the pairwise relationship strength therebetween. The method performs a corrective action to correct an anomaly responsive to a detection of the anomaly relating to the sensor pair.

Abstract: A method for performing contrastive learning for graph tasks and datasets by employing an information-aware graph contrastive learning framework is presented. The method includes obtaining two semantically similar views of a graph coupled with a label for training by employing a view augmentation component, feeding the two semantically similar views into respective encoder networks to extract latent representations preserving both structure and attribute information in the two views, optimizing a contrastive loss based on a contrastive mode by maximizing feature consistency between the latent representations, training a neural network with the optimized contrastive loss, and predicting a new graph label or a new node label in the graph.

Abstract: Distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS) and artificial intelligence (AI) systems and methods for performing utility pole hazardous event localization that advantageously identify a utility pole that has undergone a hazardous event such as being struck by an automobile or other detectable impact. Systems and methods according to aspects of the present disclosure employ machine learning methodologies to uniquely identify an affected utility pole from a plurality of poles. Our systems and methods collect data using DFOS techniques in telecommunication fiber optic cable and use an AI engine to analyze the data collected for the event identification. The AI engine recognizes different vibration patterns when an event happens and advantageously localizes the event to a specific pole and location on the pole with high accuracy. The AI engine enables analyses of events in real-time with greater than 90% accuracy.
