Data modeling analysis of GFRP tubular filled concrete column based on small sample deep meta learning method.
Abstract
The meta-learning method proposed in this paper addresses the issue of small-sample regression in the application of engineering data analysis, which is a highly promising direction for research. By integrating traditional regression models with optimization-based data augmentation from meta-learning, the proposed deep neural network demonstrates excellent performance in optimizing glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) for wrapping concrete short columns. When compared with traditional regression models, such as Support Vector Regression (SVR), Gaussian Process Regression (GPR), and Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN), the meta-learning method proposed here performs better in modeling small data samples. The success of this approach illustrates the potential of deep learning in dealing with limited amounts of data, offering new opportunities in the field of material data analysis.
