Hybrid Parallel Temporal–Spatial CNN-LSTM (HPTS-CL) for Optimized Indoor Environment Modeling in Sports Halls

We propose a Hybrid Parallel Temporal–Spatial CNN-LSTM (HPTS-CL) architecture for optimized indoor environment modeling in sports halls, addressing the computational and scalability challenges of high-resolution spatiotemporal data processing. The sports hall is partitioned into distinct zones, each processed by dedicated CNN branches to extract localized spatial features, while hierarchical LSTMs capture both short-term zone-specific dynamics and long-term inter-zone dependencies. The system integrates model and data parallelism to distribute workloads across specialized hardware, dynamically balanced to minimize computational bottlenecks. A gated fusion mechanism combines spatial and temporal features adaptively, enabling robust predictions of environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity. The proposed method replaces monolithic CNN-LSTM pipelines with a distributed framework, significantly improving efficiency without sacrificing accuracy. Furthermore, the architecture interfaces seamlessly with existing sensor networks and control systems, prioritizing critical zones through a latency-aware scheduler. Implemented on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin edge devices and Google Cloud TPU v4 pods, HPTS-CL demonstrates superior performance in real-time scenarios, leveraging lightweight EfficientNetV2-S for CNNs and IndRNN cells for LSTMs to mitigate gradient vanishing. Experimental results validate the system’s ability to handle large-scale, high-frequency sensor data while maintaining low inference latency, making it a practical solution for intelligent indoor environment optimization. The novelty lies in the hybrid parallelism strategy and hierarchical temporal modeling, which collectively advance the state of the art in distributed spatiotemporal deep learning.
