Short summary
LSTM temporal modeling suits soil moisture prediction; attention mechanisms enhance feature learning efficiently, as their feature selection capabilities are proven through Transformer and attention–LSTM hybrids. Adversarial training strategies help extract additional information from time series’ data. SHAP analysis and t-SNE visualization reveal differences in encoded features across models. This work serves as a reference for time series’ data processing in hydrology problems.
