A Novel Image Classification Algorithm Based on Extreme Learning Machine

In order to improve the accuracy and reduce the training and testing time in image classification algorithm, a novel image classification scheme based on extreme learning machine(ELM) and linear spatial pyramid matching using sparse coding(Sc SPM) for image classification is proposed. A new structure based on two layer extreme learning machine instead of the original linear SVM classifier is constructed. Firstly, the Sc SPM algorithm is performed to extract features of the multi-scale image blocks, and then each layer feature vector is connected to an ELM. Finally, the mapping features are connected together, and as the input of one ELM based on radial basis kernel function. With experimental evaluations on the well-known dataset benchmarks, the results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better performance not only in reducing the training time, but also in improving the accuracy of classification.

As an indispensable task in crop protection,the detection of crop diseases directly impacts the income of farmers.To address the problems of low crop-disease identification precision and detection abilities,a new method of detection is proposed based on improved genetic algorithm and extreme learning machine.Taking five different typical diseases with common crops as the objects,this method first preprocesses the images of crops and selects the optimal features for fusion.Then,it builds a model of crop disease identification for extreme learning machine,introduces the hill-climbing algorithm to improve the traditional genetic algorithm,optimizes the initial weights and thresholds of the machine,and acquires the approximately optimal solution.And finally,a data set of crop diseases is used for verification,demonstrating that,compared with several other common machine learning methods,this method can effectively improve the crop-disease identification precision and detection abilities and provide a basis for the identification of other crop diseases.

Towards Improving the Intrusion Detection through ELM (Extreme Learning Machine)

An IDS(intrusion detection system)provides a foremost front line mechanism to guard networks,systems,data,and information.That’s why intrusion detection has grown as an active study area and provides significant contribution to cyber-security techniques.Multiple techniques have been in use but major concern in their implementation is variation in their detection performance.The performance of IDS lies in the accurate detection of attacks,and this accuracy can be raised by improving the recognition rate and significant reduction in the false alarms rate.To overcome this problem many researchers have used different machine learning techniques.These techniques have limitations and do not efficiently perform on huge and complex data about systems and networks.This work focused on ELM(Extreme Learning Machine)technique due to its good capabilities in classification problems and dealing with huge data.The ELM has different activation functions,but the problem is to find out which function is more suitable and performs well in IDS.This work investigates this problem.Here,Well-known activation functions like:sine,sigmoid and radial basis are explored,investigated and applied to measure their performance on the GA(Genetic Algorithm)features subset and with full features set.The NSL-KDD dataset is used as a benchmark.The empirical results are analyzed,addressed and compared among different activation functions of the ELM.The results show that the radial basis and sine functions perform better on GA feature set than the full feature set while the performance of the sigmoid function is almost equal on both features sets.So,the proposal of GA based feature selection reduced 21 features out of 41 that brought up to 98%accuracy and enhanced overall efficiency of extreme learning machine in intrusion detection.

In propylene polymerization(PP) process, the melt index(MI) is one of the most important quality variables for determining different brands of products and different grades of product quality. Accurate prediction of MI is essential for efficient and professional monitoring and control of practical PP processes.

As the comparative basis, the models of ELM, APSO-ELM and GSAELM are also developed respectively. Based on the data from a real PP production plant, a detailed comparison of the models is carried out. The research results show the accuracy and universality of the proposed model and it can be a powerful tool for online MI prediction.

Fast cross validation for regularized extreme learning machine

A method for fast 1-fold cross validation is proposed for the regularized extreme learning machine （RELM）. The computational time of fast l-fold cross validation increases as the fold number decreases, which is opposite to that of naive 1-fold cross validation. As opposed to naive l-fold cross validation, fast l-fold cross validation takes the advantage in terms of computational time, especially for the large fold number such as l 〉 20. To corroborate the efficacy and feasibility of fast l-fold cross validation, experiments on five benchmark regression data sets are evaluated.

Prediction of length-of-day using extreme learning machine

Traditional artificial neural networks （ANN） such as back-propagation neural networks （BPNN） provide good predictions of length-of-day （LOD）. However, the determination of network topology is difficult and time consuming. Therefore, we propose a new type of neural network, extreme learning machine （ELM）, to improve the efficiency of LOD predictions. Earth orientation parameters （EOP） C04 time-series provides daily values from International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service （IERS）, which serves as our database. First, the known predictable effects that can be described by functional models-such as the effects of solid earth, ocean tides, or seasonal atmospheric variations--are removed a priori from the C04 time-series. Only the residuals after the subtraction of a priori model from the observed LOD data （i.e., the irregular and quasi-periodic variations） are employed for training and predictions. The predicted LOD is the sum of a prior extrapolation model and the ELM predictions of the residuals. Different input patterns are discussed and compared to optimize the network solution. The prediction results are analyzed and compared with those obtained by other machine learning-based prediction methods, including BPNN, generalization regression neural networks （GRNN）, and adaptive network-based fuzzy inference systems （ANFIS）. It is shown that while achieving similar prediction accuracy, the developed method uses much less training time than other methods. Furthermore, to conduct a direct comparison with the existing prediction tech- niques, the mean-absolute-error （MAE） from the proposed method is compared with that from the EOP prediction comparison campaign （EOP PCC）. The results indicate that the accuracy of the proposed method is comparable with that of the former techniques. The implementation of the proposed method is simple.

A new approach for epileptic seizure detection: sample entropy based feature extraction and extreme learning machine

The electroencephalogram (EEG) signal plays a key role in the diagnosis of epilepsy. Substantial data is generated by the EEG recordings of ambulatory recording systems, and detection of epileptic activity requires a time-consuming analysis of the complete length of the EEG time series data by a neurology expert. A variety of automatic epilepsy detection systems have been developed during the last ten years. In this paper, we investigate the potential of a recently-proposed statistical measure parameter regarded as Sample Entropy (SampEn), as a method of feature extraction to the task of classifying three different kinds of EEG signals (normal, interictal and ictal) and detecting epileptic seizures. It is known that the value of the SampEn falls suddenly during an epileptic seizure and this fact is utilized in the proposed diagnosis system. Two different kinds of classification models, back-propagation neural network (BPNN) and the recently-developed extreme learning machine (ELM) are tested in this study. Results show that the proposed automatic epilepsy detection system which uses sample entropy (SampEn) as the only input feature, together with extreme learning machine (ELM) classification model, not only achieves high classification accuracy (95.67%) but also very fast speed.

Constrained voting extreme learning machine and its application

Extreme learning machine(ELM)has been proved to be an effective pattern classification and regression learning mechanism by researchers.However,its good performance is based on a large number of hidden layer nodes.With the increase of the nodes in the hidden layers,the computation cost is greatly increased.In this paper,we propose a novel algorithm,named constrained voting extreme learning machine(CV-ELM).Compared with the traditional ELM,the CV-ELM determines the input weight and bias based on the differences of between-class samples.At the same time,to improve the accuracy of the proposed method,the voting selection is introduced.The proposed method is evaluated on public benchmark datasets.The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the original ELM algorithm.Further,we apply the CV-ELM to the classification of superheat degree(SD)state in the aluminum electrolysis industry,and the recognition accuracy rate reaches87.4%,and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is more robust than the existing state-of-the-art identification methods.

Swarm-Based Extreme Learning Machine Models for Global Optimization

Extreme Learning Machine(ELM)is popular in batch learning,sequential learning,and progressive learning,due to its speed,easy integration,and generalization ability.While,Traditional ELM cannot train massive data rapidly and efficiently due to its memory residence,high time and space complexity.In ELM,the hidden layer typically necessitates a huge number of nodes.Furthermore,there is no certainty that the arrangement of weights and biases within the hidden layer is optimal.To solve this problem,the traditional ELM has been hybridized with swarm intelligence optimization techniques.This paper displays five proposed hybrid Algorithms“Salp Swarm Algorithm(SSA-ELM),Grasshopper Algorithm(GOA-ELM),Grey Wolf Algorithm(GWO-ELM),Whale optimizationAlgorithm(WOA-ELM)andMoth Flame Optimization(MFO-ELM)”.These five optimizers are hybridized with standard ELM methodology for resolving the tumor type classification using gene expression data.The proposed models applied to the predication of electricity loading data,that describes the energy use of a single residence over a fouryear period.In the hidden layer,Swarm algorithms are used to pick a smaller number of nodes to speed up the execution of ELM.The best weights and preferences were calculated by these algorithms for the hidden layer.Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed MFO-ELM achieved 98.13%accuracy and this is the highest model in accuracy in tumor type classification gene expression data.While in predication,the proposed GOA-ELM achieved 0.397which is least RMSE compared to the other models.

Aeroengine Performance Parameter Prediction Based on Improved Regularization Extreme Learning Machine

Performance parameter prediction technology is the core research content of aeroengine health management,and more and more machine learning algorithms have been applied in the field.Regularized extreme learning machine(RELM)is one of them.However,the regularization parameter determination of RELM consumes computational resources,which makes it unsuitable in the field of aeroengine performance parameter prediction with a large amount of data.This paper uses the forward and backward segmentation(FBS)algorithms to improve the RELM performance,and introduces an adaptive step size determination method and an improved solution mechanism to obtain a new machine learning algorithm.While maintaining good generalization,the new algorithm is not sensitive to regularization parameters,which greatly saves computing resources.The experimental results on the public data sets prove the above conclusions.Finally,the new algorithm is applied to the prediction of aero-engine performance parameters,and the excellent prediction performance is achieved.

Robust signal recognition algorithm based on machine learning in heterogeneous networks

There are various heterogeneous networks for terminals to deliver a better quality of service. Signal system recognition and classification contribute a lot to the process. However, in low signal to noise ratio（SNR） circumstances or under time-varying multipath channels, the majority of the existing algorithms for signal recognition are already facing limitations. In this series, we present a robust signal recognition method based upon the original and latest updated version of the extreme learning machine（ELM） to help users to switch between networks. The ELM utilizes signal characteristics to distinguish systems. The superiority of this algorithm lies in the random choices of hidden nodes and in the fact that it determines the output weights analytically, which result in lower complexity. Theoretically, the algorithm tends to offer a good generalization performance at an extremely fast speed of learning. Moreover, we implement the GSM/WCDMA/LTE models in the Matlab environment by using the Simulink tools. The simulations reveal that the signals can be recognized successfully to achieve a 95% accuracy in a low SNR（0 dB） environment in the time-varying multipath Rayleigh fading channel.

A Transfer Learning-Enabled Optimized Extreme Deep Learning Paradigm for Diagnosis of COVID-19

Many respiratory infections around the world have been caused by coronaviruses.COVID-19 is one of the most serious coronaviruses due to its rapid spread between people and the lowest survival rate.There is a high need for computer-assisted diagnostics(CAD)in the area of artificial intelligence to help doctors and radiologists identify COVID-19 patients in cloud systems.Machine learning(ML)has been used to examine chest X-ray frames.In this paper,a new transfer learning-based optimized extreme deep learning paradigm is proposed to identify the chest X-ray picture into three classes,a pneumonia patient,a COVID-19 patient,or a normal person.First,three different pre-trainedConvolutionalNeuralNetwork(CNN)models(resnet18,resnet25,densenet201)are employed for deep feature extraction.Second,each feature vector is passed through the binary Butterfly optimization algorithm(bBOA)to reduce the redundant features and extract the most representative ones,and enhance the performance of the CNN models.These selective features are then passed to an improved Extreme learning machine(ELM)using a BOA to classify the chest X-ray images.The proposed paradigm achieves a 99.48%accuracy in detecting covid-19 cases.

Extreme learning with chemical reaction optimization for stock volatility prediction

Extreme learning machine(ELM)allows for fast learning and better generalization performance than conventional gradient-based learning.However,the possible inclusion of non-optimal weight and bias due to random selection and the need for more hidden neurons adversely influence network usability.Further,choosing the optimal number of hidden nodes for a network usually requires intensive human intervention,which may lead to an ill-conditioned situation.In this context,chemical reaction optimization(CRO)is a meta-heuristic paradigm with increased success in a large number of application areas.It is characterized by faster convergence capability and requires fewer tunable parameters.This study develops a learning framework combining the advantages of ELM and CRO,called extreme learning with chemical reaction optimization(ELCRO).ELCRO simultaneously optimizes the weight and bias vector and number of hidden neurons of a single layer feed-forward neural network without compromising prediction accuracy.We evaluate its performance by predicting the daily volatility and closing prices of BSE indices.Additionally,its performance is compared with three other similarly developed models—ELM based on particle swarm optimization,genetic algorithm,and gradient descent—and find the performance of the proposed algorithm superior.Wilcoxon signed-rank and Diebold–Mariano tests are then conducted to verify the statistical significance of the proposed model.Hence,this model can be used as a promising tool for financial forecasting.

Dynamic plugging regulating strategy of pipeline robot based on reinforcement learning

Pipeline isolation plugging robot (PIPR) is an important tool in pipeline maintenance operation. During the plugging process, the violent vibration will occur by the flow field, which can cause serious damage to the pipeline and PIPR. In this paper, we propose a dynamic regulating strategy to reduce the plugging-induced vibration by regulating the spoiler angle and plugging velocity. Firstly, the dynamic plugging simulation and experiment are performed to study the flow field changes during dynamic plugging. And the pressure difference is proposed to evaluate the degree of flow field vibration. Secondly, the mathematical models of pressure difference with plugging states and spoiler angles are established based on the extreme learning machine (ELM) optimized by improved sparrow search algorithm (ISSA). Finally, a modified Q-learning algorithm based on simulated annealing is applied to determine the optimal strategy for the spoiler angle and plugging velocity in real time. The results show that the proposed method can reduce the plugging-induced vibration by 19.9% and 32.7% on average, compared with single-regulating methods. This study can effectively ensure the stability of the plugging process.
