Accurate forecasting of oil production is essential for optimizing resource management and minimizing operational risks in the energy sector. Traditional time-series forecasting techniques, despite their widespread application, often encounter difficulties in handling the complexities of oil production data, which is characterized by non-linear patterns, skewed distributions, and the presence of outliers. To overcome these limitations, deep learning methods have emerged as more robust alternatives. However, while deep neural networks offer improved accuracy, they demand substantial amounts of data for effective training. Conversely, shallow networks with fewer layers lack the capacity to model complex data distributions adequately. To address these challenges, this study introduces a novel hybrid model called Transfer LSTM to GRU (TLTG), which combines the strengths of deep and shallow networks using transfer learning. The TLTG model integrates Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) to enhance predictive accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency. Gaussian transformation is applied to the input data to reduce outliers and skewness, creating a more normal-like distribution. The proposed approach is validated on datasets from various wells in the Tahe oil field, China. Experimental results highlight the superior performance of the TLTG model, achieving 100% accuracy and faster prediction times (200 s) compared to eight other approaches, demonstrating its effectiveness and efficiency.

In the rapidly evolving realm of remote sensing technology, the classification of Hyperspectral Images (HSIs) is a pivotal yet formidable task. Hindered by inherent limitations in hyperspectral imaging, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of HSI classification remains a critical and much-debated issue. This review study focuses on a key application area in HSI classification: Land Use/Land Cover (LULC). Our study unfolds in fourfold approaches. First, we present a systematic review of LULC hyperspectral image classification, delving into its background and key challenges. Second, we compile and analyze a number of datasets specific to LULC hyperspectral classification, offering a valuable resource. Third, we explore traditional machine learning models and cutting-edge methods in this field, with a particular focus on deep learning, and spectral decomposition techniques. Finally, we comprehensively analyze future developmental trajectories in HSI classification, pinpointing potential research challenges. This review aspires to be a cornerstone resource, enlightening researchers about the current landscape and future prospects of hyperspectral image classification.
