Due to the complex operation process and frequent fluctuations of variables, conventional monitoring methods often bring false alarms. To address the above problem, an ensemble of greedy dynamic principal component analysis-Gaussian mixture model(EGDPCA-GMM) is proposed in this paper. First, PCA-GMM is introduced to deal with the collinearity and the non-Gaussian distribution of blast furnace data.Second, in order to explain the dynamics of data, the greedy algorithm is used to determine the extended variables and their corresponding time lags, so as to avoid introducing unnecessary noise. Then the bagging ensemble is adopted to cooperate with greedy extension to eliminate the randomness brought by the greedy algorithm and further reduce the false alarm rate(FAR) of monitoring results. Finally, the algorithm is applied to the blast furnace of a large iron and steel group in South China to verify performance.Compared with the basic algorithms, the proposed method achieves lowest FAR, while keeping missed alarm rate(MAR) remain stable.展开更多

Compared with other clustering and sorting techniques, as a structural model, the GMM is suitable for various kinds of traffic flow parameters. Gap statistics and domain knowledge of traffic flow are used to determine a proper number of clusters. The expectation-maximization （E-M） algorithm is used to estimate parameters of the GMM model. The clustered traffic flow pattems are then analyzed statistically and utilized for designing maximum likelihood classifiers for grouping real-time traffic flow data when new observations become available. Clustering analysis and pattern recognition can also be used to cluster and classify dynamic traffic flow patterns for freeway on-ramp and off-ramp weaving sections as well as for other facilities or things involving the concept of level of service, such as airports, parking lots, intersections, interrupted-flow pedestrian facilities, etc.展开更多

This algorithm employs Gaussian mixture distributions in modeling the background of each pixel. As a result, the number of Gaussian distributions is not fixed but adaptively changes with the change of the pixel value frequency. The pixels of the difference image are divided into two parts according to their values. Then the two parts are separately segmented by the adaptive threshold, and finally the foreground image is obtained. The shadow elimination method based on morphological reconstruction is introduced to improve the performance of foreground image＇s segmentation. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can quickly and accurately build the background model and it is more robust in different real scenes.展开更多

文摘The currently prevalent machine performance degradation assessment techniques involve estimating a machine＇s current condition based upon the recognition of indications of failure features,which entail complete data collected in different conditions.However,failure data are always hard to acquire,thus making those techniques hard to be applied.In this paper,a novel method which does not need failure history data is introduced.Wavelet packet decomposition（WPD） is used to extract features from raw signals,principal component analysis（PCA） is utilized to reduce feature dimensions,and Gaussian mixture model（GMM） is then applied to approximate the feature space distributions.Single-channel confidence value（SCV） is calculated by the overlap between GMM of the monitoring condition and that of the normal condition,which can indicate the performance of single-channel.Furthermore,multi-channel confidence value（MCV）,which can be deemed as the overall performance index of multi-channel,is calculated via logistic regression（LR） and that the task of decision-level sensor fusion is also completed.Both SCV and MCV can serve as the basis on which proactive maintenance measures can be taken,thus preventing machine breakdown.The method has been adopted to assess the performance of the turbine of a centrifugal compressor in a factory of Petro-China,and the result shows that it can effectively complete this task.The proposed method has engineering significance for machine performance degradation assessment.

文摘Since the joint probabilistic data association(JPDA)algorithm results in calculation explosion with the increasing number of targets,a multi-target tracking algorithm based on Gaussian mixture model(GMM)clustering is proposed.The algorithm is used to cluster the measurements,and the association matrix between measurements and tracks is constructed by the posterior probability.Compared with the traditional data association algorithm,this algorithm has better tracking performance and less computational complexity.Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

文摘The dynamic soft sensor based on a single Gaussian process regression(GPR) model has been developed in fermentation processes.However,limitations of single regression models,for multiphase/multimode fermentation processes,may result in large prediction errors and complexity of the soft sensor.Therefore,a dynamic soft sensor based on Gaussian mixture regression(GMR) was proposed to overcome the problems.Two structure parameters,the number of Gaussian components and the order of the model,are crucial to the soft sensor model.To achieve a simple and effective soft sensor,an iterative strategy was proposed to optimize the two structure parameters synchronously.For the aim of comparisons,the proposed dynamic GMR soft sensor and the existing dynamic GPR soft sensor were both investigated to estimate biomass concentration in a Penicillin simulation process and an industrial Erythromycin fermentation process.Results show that the proposed dynamic GMR soft sensor has higher prediction accuracy and is more suitable for dynamic multiphase/multimode fermentation processes.

文摘To make the quantitative results of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) transverse relaxation(T;) spectrums reflect the type and pore structure of reservoir more directly, an unsupervised clustering method was developed to obtain the quantitative pore structure information from the NMR T;spectrums based on the Gaussian mixture model(GMM). Firstly, We conducted the principal component analysis on T;spectrums in order to reduce the dimension data and the dependence of the original variables. Secondly, the dimension-reduced data was fitted using the GMM probability density function, and the model parameters and optimal clustering numbers were obtained according to the expectation-maximization algorithm and the change of the Akaike information criterion. Finally, the T;spectrum features and pore structure types of different clustering groups were analyzed and compared with T;geometric mean and T;arithmetic mean. The effectiveness of the algorithm has been verified by numerical simulation and field NMR logging data. The research shows that the clustering results based on GMM method have good correlations with the shape and distribution of the T;spectrum, pore structure, and petroleum productivity, providing a new means for quantitative identification of pore structure, reservoir grading, and oil and gas productivity evaluation.

文摘Snow cover is an important parameter in the fields of computer modeling,engineering technology and energy development.With the extensive growth of novel hardware and software compositions creating smart,cyber physical systems’(CPS)efficient end-to-end workflows.In order to provide accurate snow detection results for the CPS’s terminal,this paper proposed a snow cover detection algorithm based on the unsupervised Gaussian mixture model(GMM)for the FY-4A satellite data.At present,most snow cover detection algorithms mainly utilize the characteristics of the optical spectrum,which is based on the normalized difference snow index(NDSI)with thresholds in different wavebands.These algorithms require a large amount of manually labeled data for statistical analysis to obtain the appropriate thresholds for the study area.Consideration must be given to both the high and low elevations in the study area.It is difficult to extract all snow by a fixed threshold in mountainous and rugged terrains.In this research,we avoid relying on a manual analysis for different elevations.Therefore,an algorithm based on the GMM is proposed,integrating the threshold-based algorithm and the GMM.First,the threshold-based algorithm with transferred thresholds from other satellites’analysis results are used to coarsely classify the surface objects.These results are then used to initialize the parameters of the GMM.Finally,the parameters of that model are updated by an expectation-maximum(EM)iteration algorithm,and the final results are outputted when the iterative conditions end.The results show that this algorithm can adjust itself to mountainous terrain with different elevations,and exhibits a better performance than the threshold-based algorithm.Compared with orbit satellites’snow products,the accuracy of the algorithm used for FY-4A is improved by nearly 2%,and the snow detection rate is increased by nearly 6%.Moreover,compared with microwave sensors’snow products,the accuracy is increased by nearly 3%.The validation results show that the proposed algorithm can be adapted to a complex terrain environment in mountainous areas and exhibits good performance under a transferred threshold without manually assigned labels.

文摘The multispectral remote sensing image(MS-RSI)is degraded existing multi-spectral camera due to various hardware limitations.In this paper,we propose a novel core tensor dictionary learning approach with the robust modified Gaussian mixture model for MS-RSI restoration.First,the multispectral patch is modeled by three-order tensor and high-order singular value decomposition is applied to the tensor.Then the task of MS-RSI restoration is formulated as a minimum sparse core tensor estimation problem.To improve the accuracy of core tensor coding,the core tensor estimation based on the robust modified Gaussian mixture model is introduced into the proposed model by exploiting the sparse distribution prior in image.When applied to MS-RSI restoration,our experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm can better reconstruct the sharpness of the image textures and can outperform several existing state-of-the-art multispectral image restoration methods in both subjective image quality and visual perception.

文摘To solve the problem of color distortion after dehazing in the sky region by using the classical dark channel prior method to process the hazy images with large regions of sky,an improved dark channel image dehazing method based on Gaussian mixture model is proposed.Firstly,we use the Gaussian mixture model to model the hazy image,and then use the expectation maximization(EM)algorithm to optimize the parameters,so that the hazy image can be divided into the sky region and the non-sky region.Secondly,the sky region is divided into a light haze region,a medium haze region and a heavy haze region according to the different dark channel values to estimate the transmission respectively.Thirdly,the restored image is obtained by combining the atmospheric scattering model.Finally,adaptive local tone mapping for high dynamic range images is used to adjust the brightness of the restored image.The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively eliminate the color distortion in the sky region,and the restored image is clearer and has better visual effect.
