Risk assessment of civil aviation cabin safety incidents based on the CNN–LSTM–Attention model
Against the backdrop of the thriving global civil aviation industry, cabin safety, which is a crucial link in civil aviation safety systems, has prompted an increasingly urgent need for intelligent risk management. This study constructs an integrated framework of "deep text mining-intelligent risk assessment" and proposes a hybrid CNN-LSTM-Attention model for cabin safety incident classification. Using 8,280 global cabin abnormal event reports from 2004-2024, the model achieves 95.01% accuracy and an F1 score of 94.17% on the test set, substantially outperforming benchmark approaches. Compared with XGBoost (89.45% accuracy, 88.98% F1), the proposed model improves accuracy by 5.56% and the F1 score by 5.19%, demonstrating superior capability in extracting deep semantic features and identifying key risk patterns. The framework also establishes a "text feature-risk mechanism-hazard level" mapping system, enabling more interpretable risk quantification. The findings provide an effective technical path for intelligent early warning of cabin safety risks and offer methodological support for data-driven decision-making in civil aviation safety management.
