     abstract = "{The accuracy of the atmospheric mass density is one of the most
        important factors affecting the orbital precision of spacecraft
        at low Earth orbits (LEO). Although there are a number of
        empirical density models available to use in the orbit
        determination and prediction of LEO spacecraft, all of them
        suffer from errors of various degrees. A practical way to reduce
        the error of a particular model is to calibrate the model using
        precise density data or tracking data. In this paper, a long
        short-term memory (LSTM) neural network is proposed to calibrate
        the NRLMSISE-00 density model, in which the densities derived
        from spaceborne accelerometer data are the main input. The
        resulted LSTM-NRL model, calibrated using the accelerometer data
        from Challenging Minisatellite Payload (CHAMP) satellite, is
        extensively experimented to evaluate the calibration
        performance. With data in one month to train the LSTM-NRL model,
        the model is shown to effectively reduce the root mean square
        error of the model densities outside the training window by more
        than 40\% in various time spans and space weather environment.
        The LSTM-NRL model is also shown to have remarkable transferring
        performance when it is applied along the GRACE satellite orbits.}",
