      Abstract:The complex and various defects of the steel surface bring great difficulty to the feature extraction and selection. Therefore, this paper proposes a new RAdaBoost future selection method with a fusion of feature selection and sample weights updated. The proposed algorithm selects features and reduces the dimension of features via Relief feature selection according to updated samples in each cyle of AdaBoost algorithm, and uses reduced features to remove noise samples by intra class difference among samples, and then update sample library according to dynamic weight of AdaBoost. The weak classifiers are trained by the resulting optimal features, and combined to generate the final AdaBoost strong classifier, and detect and locate strip surface defects by AdaBoost two classifiers. Aiming at a variety of defects such as scratch, wrinkle, mountain, stain, etc. in the actual strip production line, the experimental results show that the proposed RAdaBoost algorithm can effectively extract features with high distinction and independence and reduce the feature dimension, and simultaneously improve the accuracy of defect detection.

      Abstract:Aiming at the random error of MEMS gyroscope is the main factor that restricts its precision and application range, the Kalman filter estimation method based on regression moving average (ARMA) model is proposed in this paper. Firstly, based on the results of Allan variance analysis, the quantization noise, angle random walk and zero bias instability are the main parts of the MEMS gyroscope random noise. Then, the stability of MEMS gyroscope random noise is tested by using time series analysis. Finally, based on the random drift of the autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model, a discrete Kalman filter equation is built to actualize its error estimation and compensation. The results of static vehicle and dynamic environment of digital noise reduction and Kalman filtering compensation experiments show that the Kalman filter estimation method based on the ARMA model has more obvious advantages in MEMS Gyroscope random error compensation.

    • Stochastic resonance research with EMD denoising under Levy noise

      Abstract:Empirical mode decomposition(EMD)method attenuates the signals’ energy and generates false signals in decomposing signal noise, which leads to incorrect detection results. In order to solve this problem, a stochastic resonance method under Levy noise after denoised by EMD decomposition is presented in this paper. After decomposed by EMD, the noisy signals are handled by overlaying, averaging and resampling to meet the condition of stochastic resonance. An adaptive algorithm is used to optimize system parameters, and then the processed signal can generate stochastic resonance in bistable system to achieve precise detection. The theoretical analysis and experimental results prove that the method can detect singlefrequency signal and multifrequency signal under the same characteristic exponent with the Levy noise. The experimental results demonstrate that the SNR of singlefrequency signal can increase 14 dB in the case of SNR of -28 dB. The spectral amplitude of the 5 Hz spectrum is increased from 311.8 to 724 and 10 Hz spectrum amplitude is increased from 138.9 to 143.2. This method that reduces the residual noise energy and false signal can improve the signal energy in a complex noisy condition. Compared to EMD decomposition which cannot determine the signal components, this method can achieve the detection effect better.

      Abstract:The concentration of nitrogen oxides (NO2, NO, N2O, etc.) in power plant is an important index of environmental protection. Aiming at the problem that the detection accuracy of nitrogen oxides concentration based on spectral analysis could be interfered by all kinds of factors, such as temperature, moisture content, tar, naphthalene, noise of electric devices, optical lens aging, interference at spectral absorption characteristics of polluting gases etc, it is difficult to improve in a single way. At first, the hardware modification is favorable for gas purification and filter. And then, the selflearning and selftraining ability of RBF neural network can save the traditional model for the study of interference factors, and make the data processing more efficient. On the basis of a large thermal power plant’s real data in 2015, the computer simulation and analysis show that this method can improve the accuracy effectively. The overallaverage deviation is 0.841%.

      Abstract:A simple, rapid and efficient retinal vessels segmentation method is proposed. After a general analysis on gray value distribution and contrast changes of fundus images, the standardizing fundus images are obtained by using the matched filtering technique to overcome the interference of background and noise.

      Abstract:The triaxial array induction logging tool is an important tool for measuring complex formation information, but the key of design and application is to eliminate borehole effects of coplanar coil systems. The response characteristics of coplanar coil systems and coaxial coil systems of the triaxial array induction are analyzed numerically in the center hole by the FEM, and field experiment results are compared with modeling simulation on the coplanar coil systems. The results show that the borehole effects of coplanar coil systems are significantly different from that of coaxial coil systems besides the shortest subarray. The borehole effect causes the negative logging response. For the longest subarray, although the borehole effect is week, its skin effect is serious and the measurement range of formation conductivity is smaller than that of the coaxial coil systems. It reveals the reason that the greater difference is occurred between the coplanar coil systems and the coaxial coil systems through the eddy current distribution of coplanar coil systems around the borehole at different mud and formation conductivity. A new coil system which has two transmitters and one receiver is raised and its advantages are analyzed on the decreasing borehole effect and reducing negative response from the geometrical factor. The research lays a theoretical basis for the development and application of the triaxial induction logging tool.

      Abstract (7864) HTML (0) PDF 2.03 M (42089) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:When congestion occurs in the network, VOQ routers still suffer a certain degree of headofline blocking (HoL) problem in the networkonchip (NoC).Aiming at this issue, we propose the loadbalancing AVOQ router architecture. Firstly, the VOQ mechanism is kept to deal with the HoL problem. Secondly, a flexible output port can be picked up in the routing computing module, making sure that the dada is ported out to the less congested road and a single virtual channel (VC) can read the packet adaptively, so that the less congested flow in the downstream can be transmitted. The experimental results show that, compared to the VC router and the VOQ router, AVOQ router reduces the average latency by 83.2% and 57.1% and improves the throughput by 72.7% and 33.3% at most, while the area overhead and power consumption are affordable. By the use of above adaptive mechanism, the network load is balanced and the congestion is relieved, and the appearing of the HoL is decreased. Moreover, the impact of HoL is eliminated as long as it appears,and the network performance is improved greatly.

After the order adjustment of test set according to the matching relationship, the correlation between prominent component and test set is increased, and the prominent spectral component is enhanced. In this paper, the experimental results about the test set of the ISCAS89 benchmark circuits show that the coefficient of the sorted test can increase by 19.05% on average, and the test set residue compression ratio basis on FDR (frequencydirected runlength) code can increase by 4.59% on average.

      Abstract:In order to improve the multitarget tracking robustness and enhance the difference between the targets, this paper uses an energy minimization method for multitarget tracking. Different to the existing algorithm, the algorithm focuses on the representation of the complex problem in multitarget tracking as energy function model, which includes a better target segmentation strategy (similarity model). By assigns every possible solutions a cost (the “energy”), the algorithm transforms the multiple target tracking problem into an energy minimization problem. In the energy minimization optimization method, the algorithm uses the conjugate gradient algorithm and a series of jump moves to find the minimum energy value. The experimental results of open data demonstrate the effectiveness. And the quantitative analysis results show that this algorithm can improve the difference between targets or between target and background so as to obtain better robust performance compared with other algorithms.
