Locally linear embedding-based seismic attribute extraction and applications

How to extract optimal composite attributes from a variety of conventional seismic attributes to detect reservoir features is a reservoir predication key,which is usually solved by reducing dimensionality.Principle component analysis（PCA） is the most widely-used linear dimensionality reduction method at present.However,the relationships between seismic attributes and reservoir features are non-linear,so seismic attribute dimensionality reduction based on linear transforms can＇t solve non-linear problems well,reducing reservoir prediction precision.As a new non-linear learning method,manifold learning supplies a new method for seismic attribute analysis.It can discover the intrinsic features and rules hidden in the data by computing low-dimensional,neighborhood-preserving embeddings of high-dimensional inputs.In this paper,we try to extract seismic attributes using locally linear embedding（LLE）,realizing inter-horizon attributes dimensionality reduction of 3D seismic data first and discuss the optimization of its key parameters.Combining model analysis and case studies,we compare the dimensionality reduction and clustering effects of LLE and PCA,both of which indicate that LLE can retain the intrinsic structure of the inputs.The composite attributes and clustering results based on LLE better characterize the distribution of sedimentary facies,reservoir,and even reservoir fluids.

This method uses spatial correlation and temporal correlation simultaneously. Simulation results show that the improved local linear prediction method can effectively make multi-step and one-step prediction of chaotic time series and the multi-step prediction performance and one-step prediction accuracy of the improved local linear prediction method are superior to those of the traditional local linear prediction method.

Fault Detection Based on Incremental Locally Linear Embedding for Satellite TX-I

A fault detection method based on incremental locally linear embedding(LLE)is presented to improve fault detecting accuracy for satellites with telemetry data.Since conventional LLE algorithm cannot handle incremental learning,an incremental LLE method is proposed to acquire low-dimensional feature embedded in high-dimensional space.Then,telemetry data of Satellite TX-I are analyzed.Therefore,fault detection are performed by analyzing feature information extracted from the telemetry data with the statistical indexes T2 and squared prediction error(SPE)and SPE.Simulation results verify the fault detection scheme.

Preventing Pressure Oscillations Does Not Fix Local Linear Stability Issues of Entropy-Based Split-Form High-Order Schemes

Recently,it was discovered that the entropy-conserving/dissipative high-order split-form discontinuous Galerkin discretizations have robustness issues when trying to solve the sim-ple density wave propagation example for the compressible Euler equations.The issue is related to missing local linear stability,i.e.,the stability of the discretization towards per-turbations added to a stable base flow.This is strongly related to an anti-diffusion mech-anism,that is inherent in entropy-conserving two-point fluxes,which are a key ingredi-ent for the high-order discontinuous Galerkin extension.In this paper,we investigate if pressure equilibrium preservation is a remedy to these recently found local linear stability issues of entropy-conservative/dissipative high-order split-form discontinuous Galerkin methods for the compressible Euler equations.Pressure equilibrium preservation describes the property of a discretization to keep pressure and velocity constant for pure density wave propagation.We present the full theoretical derivation,analysis,and show corresponding numerical results to underline our findings.In addition,we characterize numerical fluxes for the Euler equations that are entropy-conservative,kinetic-energy-preserving,pressure-equilibrium-preserving,and have a density flux that does not depend on the pressure.The source code to reproduce all numerical experiments presented in this article is available online(https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4054366).

The simulation results show that the KLT-based local linear prediction method can effectively make one-step and multi-step prediction for chaotic time series, and the one-step and multi-step prediction accuracies of the KLT-based local linear prediction method are superior to that of the traditional local linear prediction.

Noiseless Linear Amplification with General Local Unitary Operations

Noiseless linear amplification （NLA）, first proposed by Ralpha et al., is a nondeterministic amplification process which gives gain to the Fock state ｜n） → gn｜n）, with g being the amplification gain. We here give a general frame- work for improving the NLA scheme with arbitrary general local unitary operations. We derive the improvement in the amplification gain in 0 1 photon subspace. In particular, we study if the local unitary is composed of sin- gle mode squeezing and coherent displacement operation. Finally, numerical simulations show that local unitary operation could give a further enhancement in the amplification gain as well as the success probability, making the NLA more feasible in future optic quantum communications.

Asymptotic Confidence Bands for Copulas Based on the Local Linear Kernel Estimator

In this paper, we establish asymptotically optimal simultaneous confidence bands for the copula function based on the local linear kernel estimator proposed by Chen and Huang [1]. For this, we prove under smoothness conditions on the derivatives of the copula a uniform in bandwidth law of the iterated logarithm for the maximal deviation of this estimator from its expectation. We also show that the bias term converges uniformly to zero with a precise rate. The performance of these bands is illustrated by a simulation study. An application based on pseudo-panel data is also provided for modeling the dependence structure of Senegalese households’ expense data in 2001 and 2006.

Local Hybrid Linear State Estimation for Electric Power Systems Using Stream Processing

The increasing penetration of renewable energy resources with highly fluctuating outputs has placed increasing concern on the accuracy and timeliness of electric power system state estimation(SE).Meanwhile,we note that only a fraction of system states fluctuate at the millisecond level and require to be updated.As such,refreshing only those states with significant variation would enhance the computational efficiency of SE and make fast-continuous update of states possible.However,this is difficult to achieve with conventional SE methods,which generally refresh states of the entire system every 4–5 s.In this context,we propose a local hybrid linear SE framework using stream processing,in which synchronized measurements received from phasor measurement units(PMUs),and trigger/timingmode measurements received from remote terminal units(RTUs)are used to update the associated local states.Moreover,the measurement update process efficiency and timeliness are enhanced by proposing a trigger measurement-based fast dynamic partitioning algorithm for determining the areas of the system with states requiring recalculation.In particular,non-iterative hybrid linear formulations with both RTUs and PMUs are employed to solve the local SE problem.The timeliness,accuracy,and computational efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated by extensive simulations based on IEEE 118-,300-,and 2383-bus systems.

EFFICIENT ESTIMATION OF FUNCTIONAL-COEFFICIENT REGRESSION MODELS WITH DIFFERENT SMOOTHING VARIABLES

In this article,a procedure for estimating the coefficient functions on the functional-coefficient regression models with different smoothing variables in different coefficient functions is defined.First step,by the local linear technique and the averaged method,the initial estimates of the coefficient functions are given.Second step,based on the initial estimates,the efficient estimates of the coefficient functions are proposed by a one-step back-fitting procedure.The efficient estimators share the same asymptotic normalities as the local linear estimators for the functional-coefficient models with a single smoothing variable in different functions.Two simulated examples show that the procedure is effective.

Prediction of flyrock induced by mine blasting using a novel kernel-based extreme learning machine

Blasting is a common method of breaking rock in surface mines.Although the fragmentation with proper size is the main purpose,other undesirable effects such as flyrock are inevitable.This study is carried out to evaluate the capability of a novel kernel-based extreme learning machine algorithm,called kernel extreme learning machine(KELM),by which the flyrock distance(FRD) is predicted.Furthermore,the other three data-driven models including local weighted linear regression(LWLR),response surface methodology(RSM) and boosted regression tree(BRT) are also developed to validate the main model.A database gathered from three quarry sites in Malaysia is employed to construct the proposed models using 73 sets of spacing,burden,stemming length and powder factor data as inputs and FRD as target.Afterwards,the validity of the models is evaluated by comparing the corresponding values of some statistical metrics and validation tools.Finally,the results verify that the proposed KELM model on account of highest correlation coefficient(R) and lowest root mean square error(RMSE) is more computationally efficient,leading to better predictive capability compared to LWLR,RSM and BRT models for all data sets.

Fast color transfer from multiple images

Color transfer between images uses the statistics information of image effectively. We present a novel approach of local color transfer between images based on the simple statistics and locally linear embedding. A sketching interface is proposed for quickly and easily specifying the color correspondences between target and source image. The user can specify the corre- spondences of local region using scribes, which more accurately transfers the target color to the source image while smoothly preserving the boundaries, and exhibits more natural output results. Our algorithm is not restricted to one-to-one image color transfer and can make use of more than one target images to transfer the color in different regions in the source image. Moreover, our algorithm does not require to choose the same color style and image size between source and target images. We propose the sub-sampling to reduce the computational load. Comparing with other approaches, our algorithm is much better in color blending in the input data. Our approach preserves the other color details in the source image. Various experimental results show that our approach specifies the correspondences of local color region in source and target images. And it expresses the intention of users and generates more actual and natural results of visual effect.

Novel algorithm for pose-invariant face recognition

By combining the AdaBoost modular locality preserving projection （AMLPP） algorithm and the locally linear regression （LLR） algorithm, a novel pose-invariant algorithm is proposed to realize high-accuracy face recognition under different poses. In the training stage of this algorithm, the AMLPP is employed to select the crucial frontal blocks and construct effective strong classifier. According to the selected frontal blocks and the corresponding non-frontal blocks, LLR is then applied to learn the linear mappings which will be used to convert the non-frontal blocks to visual frontal blocks. During the testing of the learned linear mappings, when a non-frontal face image is inputted, the non-frontal blocks corresponding to the selected frontal blocks are extracted and converted to the visual frontal blocks. The generated virtual frontal blocks are finally fed into the strong classifier constructed by AMLPP to realize accurate and efficient face recognition. Our algorithm is experimentally compared with other pose-invariant face recognition algorithms based on the Bosphorus database. The results show a significant improvement with our proposed algorithm.

Searching for Strange Attractor in Sliver Irregularity Series

The chaotic nonlinear time series method is applied to analyze the sliver irregularity in textile processing.Because it unifies the system's determinacy and randomness,it seems more adaptive to describe the sliver irregularity than conventional methods.Firstly,the chaos character,i.e.fractal dimension,positive Lyapunov exponent,and state space parameters,including time delay and reconstruction dimension,are calculated respectively.As a result,a positive Lyapunov exponent and a fractal dimension are obtained,which demonstrates that the system is chaotic in fact.Secondly,both local linear forecast and global forecast models based on the reconstructed state are adopted to predict a segment part of the sliver irregularity series,which proves the validity of this analysis.Therefore,the sliver irregularity series shows the evidence of chaotic phenomena,and thus laying the theoretical foundation for analyzing and modeling the sliver irregularity series by applying the chaos theory,and providing a new way to understand the complexity of the sliver irregularity much better.

Nonlinearly correlated failure analysis and autonomic prediction for distributed systems

In order to achieve failure prediction without manual intervention for distributed systems, a novel failure feature analysis and extraction approach to automate failure prediction is proposed. Compared with the traditional methods which focus on building heuristic rules or models, the autonomic prediction approach analyzes the nonlinear correlation of failure features by recognizing failure patterns. Failure data are sorted according to the nonlinear correlation and failure signature is proposed for autonomic prediction. In addition, the Manifold Learning algorithm named supervised locally linear embedding is applied to achieve feature extraction. Based on the runtime monitoring of failure metrics, the experimental results indicate that the proposed method has better performance in terms of both correlation recognition precision and feature extraction quality and thus it can be used to design efficient autonomic failure prediction for distributed systems.
