Well-log interpretation is fundamental for subsurface characterization but remains challenged by heterogeneous tool responses, noisy signals, and limited labels. We propose WLFM, a foundation model pretrained on multi-curve logs from 1200 wells, comprising three stages: tokenization of log patches into geological tokens, self-supervised pretraining with masked-token modeling and stratigraphy-aware contrastive learning, and multi-task adaptation with few-shot fine-tuning. WLFM consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving 0.0041 MSE in porosity estimation and 74.13\% accuracy in lithology classification, while WLFM-Finetune further improves to 0.0038 MSE and 78.10\% accuracy. Beyond predictive accuracy, WLFM exhibits emergent layer-awareness, learns a reusable geological vocabulary, and reconstructs masked curves with reasonable fidelity, though systematic offsets are observed in shallow and ultra-deep intervals. Although boundary detection is not explicitly evaluated here, clustering analyses suggest strong potential for future extension. These results establish WLFM as a scalable, interpretable, and transferable backbone for geological AI, with implications for multi-modal integration of logs, seismic, and textual data.

Traffic prediction is necessary not only for management departments to dispatch vehicles but also for drivers to avoid congested roads. Many traffic forecasting methods based on deep learning have been proposed in recent years, and their main aim is to solve the problem of spatial dependencies and temporal dynamics. In this paper, we propose a useful dynamic model to predict the urban traffic volume by combining fully bidirectional LSTM, the more complex attention mechanism, and the external features, including weather conditions and events. First, we adopt the bidirectional LSTM to obtain temporal dependencies of traffic volume dynamically in each layer, which is different from the hybrid methods combining bidirectional and unidirectional ones; second, we use a more elaborate attention mechanism to learn short-term and long-term periodic temporal dependencies; and finally, we collect the weather conditions and events as the external features to further improve the prediction precision. The experimental results show that the proposed model improves the prediction precision by approximately 3-7 percent on the NYC-Taxi and NYC-Bike datasets compared to the most recently developed method, being a useful tool for the urban traffic prediction.
