Latest Patents

Chen is associated with 1 patent: “Partition Monitoring Method and Model for Concrete Dam Operation Key Part.” The method uses time-frequency vectors derived from monitoring data to divide key dam areas into partitions. It then organizes time-series measurements from different monitoring instruments into a graph structure, capturing relationships across both time and variables. A graph attention network helps learn and represent these relationships, and the resulting features are used to calculate anomaly scores. By comparing measurements from multiple instruments and locations, the approach supports anomaly detection while reflecting the dam’s structural integrity and spatial distribution.
