Abstract

Structural health monitoring systems measure structural deformations, vibrations, stress, etc., in real-time through sensor networks, comprehensively assessing the health of structures. The quality of monitoring data directly influences the accuracy of structural assessments and maintenance decisions. However, data loss is inevitable during the long-term monitoring of large structures. To address this issue, this paper proposes a Compressive Sensing-Convolutional Transformer Networks (C-CTNet) based multi-channel data reconstruction method. The neural network model comprises sampling, feature embedding and transformation, and reconstruction modules. The sampling module utilizes a mask matrix to sample the response matrix. The sampled matrix is then converted into a high-dimensional feature matrix in the feature embedding, and transformation module and segmented into submatrices. During the process, information is extracted, and dimensionality is reduced by learned convolution kernels. In the reconstruction phase, features are projected into a linear initialization module, CNN stem, and transformer stem, respectively. The initialization module mimics traditional compressive sensing reconstruction but generates initial reconstructions in a learnable and efficient manner. The CNN and transformer stem compute and effectively integrate local and long-range features. Additionally, a progressive strategy and window-based transformer model blocks reduce parameter count and computational complexity. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed neural network model can effectively reconstruct data under random loss conditions. Comparisons with ablation models confirm the critical role of the three branches in the task.
