To address this issue, we propose a lightweight deep learning model, the Temporal Efficient Residual Network (TEResNet), for the detection of anomalous intrusion. In contrast to the majority of two-dimensional convolutional approaches, which require a deep architecture to encompass both low- and high-frequency domains, our methodology employs temporal convolutions and a compact residual network architecture. This allows the model to incorporate lower-level features into the higher-level feature formation in subsequent layers, leveraging informative features from the lower layers, and thus reducing the number of stacked layers for generating high-level features. As a result, the model achieves a superior performance with a relatively small number of layers. Moreover, the two-dimensional feature map is reduced in size to reduce the computational burden without adding parameters. This is crucial for enabling rapid intrusion detection. Experiments were conducted in the construction environment of the Guangzhou Metro, resulting in the creation of a dataset containing 6948 signal segments, which is publicly accessible. The results demonstrate that TEResNet outperforms the existing intrusion detection methods and advanced deep learning networks, achieving an accuracy of 97.12% and an F1 score of 96.15%. With only 48,009 learnable parameters, it provides an efficient and reliable solution for intrusion detection in metro tunnels, aligning with the growing demand for lightweight and robust information processing systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/a18020101","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,11]],"date-time":"2025-02-11T11:01:08Z","timestamp":1739271668000},"page":"101","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["A Lightweight Deep Learning Approach for Detecting External Intrusion Signals from Optical Fiber Sensing System Based on Temporal Efficient Residual Network"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Yizhao","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ziye","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical and Information Engineering, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 102616, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haitao","family":"Luo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jing","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2956-0680","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruohua","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical and Information Engineering, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 102616, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"101166","DOI":"10.1016\/j.trgeo.2023.101166","article-title":"Towards real-time condition monitoring of a transition zone in a railway structure using fibre Bragg grating sensors","volume":"44","author":"Nasrollahi","year":"2024","journal-title":"Transp.
