Combining unscented Kalman filter and wavelet neural network for anti-slug

The stability of the subsea oil and gas production system is heavily influenced by slug flow. One successful method of managing slug flow is to use top valve control based on subsea pipeline pressure. However, the complexity of production makes it difficult to measure the pressure of subsea pipelines, and measured values are not always accessible in real-time. The research introduces a technique for integrating Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and Wavelet Neural Network (WNN) to estimate the state of subsea pipeline pressure using historical data and a state model. The proposed method treats multiphase flow transport as a nonlinear model, with a dynamic WNN serving as the state observer. To achieve real-time state estimation, the WNN is included into the UKF algorithm to create a WNN-based UKF state equation. Integrate WNN and UKF in a novel way to predict system state accurately. The simulated results show that the approach can efficiently predict the inlet pressure and manage the slug flow in real-time using the riser's top pressure, outlet flow and valve opening. This method of estimate can significantly increase the control effect.

Short-TermWind Power Prediction Based on Combinatorial Neural Networks

Wind power volatility not only limits the large-scale grid connection but also poses many challenges to safe grid operation.Accurate wind power prediction can mitigate the adverse effects of wind power volatility on wind power grid connections.For the characteristics of wind power antecedent data and precedent data jointly to determine the prediction accuracy of the prediction model,the short-term prediction of wind power based on a combined neural network is proposed.First,the Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory(BiLSTM)network prediction model is constructed,and the bi-directional nature of the BiLSTM network is used to deeply mine the wind power data information and find the correlation information within the data.Secondly,to avoid the limitation of a single prediction model when the wind power changes abruptly,the Wavelet Transform-Improved Adaptive Genetic Algorithm-Back Propagation(WT-IAGA-BP)neural network based on the combination of the WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network is constructed for the short-term prediction of wind power.Finally,comparing with LSTM,BiLSTM,WT-LSTM,WT-BiLSTM,WT-IAGA-BP,and WT-IAGA-BP&LSTM prediction models,it is verified that the wind power short-term prediction model based on the combination of WT-IAGA-BP neural network and BiLSTM network has higher prediction accuracy.

As one of the most widespread renewable energy sources,wind energy is now an important part of the power system.Accurate and appropriate wind speed forecasting has an essential impact on wind energy utilisation.However,due to the stochastic and un-certain nature of wind energy,more accurate forecasting is necessary for its more stable and safer utilisation.This paper proposes a Legendre multiwavelet‐based neural network model for non‐linear wind speed prediction.It combines the excellent properties of Legendre multi‐wavelets with the self‐learning capability of neural networks,which has rigorous mathematical theory support.It learns input‐output data pairs and shares weights within divided subintervals,which can greatly reduce computing costs.We explore the effectiveness of Legendre multi‐wavelets as an activation function.Mean-while,it is successfully being applied to wind speed prediction.In addition,the appli-cation of Legendre multi‐wavelet neural networks in a hybrid model in decomposition‐reconstruction mode to wind speed prediction problems is also discussed.Numerical results on real data sets show that the proposed model is able to achieve optimal per-formance and high prediction accuracy.In particular,the model shows a more stable performance in multi‐step prediction,illustrating its superiority.

Underwater Acoustic Signal Noise Reduction Based on a Fully Convolutional Encoder-Decoder Neural Network

Noise reduction analysis of signals is essential for modern underwater acoustic detection systems.The traditional noise reduction techniques gradually lose efficacy because the target signal is masked by biological and natural noise in the marine environ-ment.The feature extraction method combining time-frequency spectrograms and deep learning can effectively achieve the separation of noise and target signals.A fully convolutional encoder-decoder neural network(FCEDN)is proposed to address the issue of noise reduc-tion in underwater acoustic signals.The time-domain waveform map of underwater acoustic signals is converted into a wavelet low-frequency analysis recording spectrogram during the denoising process to preserve as many underwater acoustic signal characteristics as possible.The FCEDN is built to learn the spectrogram mapping between noise and target signals that can be learned at each time level.The transposed convolution transforms are introduced,which can transform the spectrogram features of the signals into listenable audio files.After evaluating the systems on the ShipsEar Dataset,the proposed method can increase SNR and SI-SNR by 10.02 and 9.5dB,re-spectively.

Wavelet Neural Network Based on NARMA-L2 Model for Prediction of Thermal Characteristics in a Feed System

Research of thermal characteristics has been a key issue in the development of high-speed feed system. Most of the work carried out thus far is based on the principle of directly mapping the thermal error against the temperature of critical machine elements irrespective of the operating conditions. But recent researches show that different sets of operating parameters generated significantly different error values even though the temperature of the machine elements generated was similar. As such, it is important to develop a generic thermal error model which is capable of evaluating the positioning error induced by different operating parameters. This paper ultimately aims at the development of a comprehensive prediction model that can predict the thermal characteristics under different operating conditions （feeding speed, load and preload of ballscrew） in a feed system. A novel wavelet neural network based on feedback linearization autoregressive moving averaging （NARMA-L2） model is introduced to predict the temperature rise of sensitive points and thermal positioning errors considering the different operating conditions as the model inputs. Particle swarm optimization（PSO） algorithm is brought in as the training method. According to ISO230-2 Positioning Accuracy Measurement and ISO230-3 Thermal Effect Evaluation standards, experiments under different operating conditions were carried out on a self-made quasi high-speed feed system experimental bench HUST-FS-001 by using Pt100 as temperature sensor, and the positioning errors were measured by Heidenhain linear grating scale. The experiment results show that the recommended method can be used to predict temperature rise of sensitive points and thermal positioning errors with good accuracy. The work described in this paper lays a solid foundation of thermal error prediction and compensation in a feed system based on varying operating conditions and machine tool characteristics.

Research on runoff variations based on wavelet analysis and wavelet neural network model： A case study of the Heihe River drainage basin （1944-2005）

The Heihe River drainage basin is one of the endangered ecological regions of China. The shortage of water resources is the bottleneck, which constrains the sustainable development of the region. Many scholars in China have done researches concerning this problem. Based on previous researches, this paper analyzed characteristics, tendencies, and causes of annual runoff variations in the Yingluo Gorge （1944-2005） and the Zhengyi Gorge （1954-2005）, which are the boundaries of the upper reaches, the middle reaches, and the lower reaches of the Heihe River drainage basin, by wavelet analysis, wavelet neural network model, and GIS spatial analysis. The results show that： （1） annual runoff variations of the Yingluo Gorge have principal periods of 7 years and 25 years, and its increasing rate is 1.04 m^3/s.10y; （2） annual runoff variations of the Zhengyi Gorge have principal periods of 6 years and 27 years, and its decreasing rate is 2.25 m^3/s.10y; （3） prediction results show that： during 2006-2015, annual runoff variations of the Yingluo and Zhengyi gorges have ascending tendencies, and the increasing rates are respectively 2.04 m^3/s.10y and 1.61 m^3/s.10y; （4） the increase of annual runoff in the Yingluo Gorge has causal relationship with increased temperature and precipitation in the upper reaches, and the decrease of annual runoff in the Zhengyi Gorge in the past decades was mainly caused by the increased human consumption of water resources in the middle researches. The study results will provide scientific basis for making rational use and allocation schemes of water resources in the Heihe River drainage basin.

No-reference image quality assessment based on AdaBoost_BP neural network in wavelet domain

Considering the relatively poor robustness of quality scores for different types of distortion and the lack of mechanism for determining distortion types, a no-reference image quality assessment(NR-IQA) method based on the Ada Boost BP neural network in the wavelet domain(WABNN) is proposed. A 36-dimensional image feature vector is constructed by extracting natural scene statistics(NSS) features and local information entropy features of the distorted image wavelet sub-band coefficients in three scales. The ABNN classifier is obtained by learning the relationship between image features and distortion types. The ABNN scorer is obtained by learning the relationship between image features and image quality scores. A series of contrast experiments are carried out in the laboratory of image and video engineering(LIVE) database and TID2013 database. Experimental results show the high accuracy of the distinguishing distortion type, the high consistency with subjective scores and the high robustness of the method for distorted images. Experiment results also show the independence of the database and the relatively high operation efficiency of this method.

Time Series Modeling of River Flow Using Wavelet Neural Networks

A new hybrid model which combines wavelets and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) called wavelet neural network (WNN) model was proposed in the current study and applied for time series modeling of river flow. The time series of daily river flow of the Malaprabha River basin (Karnataka state, India) were analyzed by the WNN model. The observed time series are decomposed into sub-series using discrete wavelet transform and then appropriate sub-series is used as inputs to the neural network for forecasting hydrological variables. The hybrid model (WNN) was compared with the standard ANN and AR models. The WNN model was able to provide a good fit with the observed data, especially the peak values during the testing period. The benchmark results from WNN model applications showed that the hybrid model produced better results in estimating the hydrograph properties than the latter models (ANN and AR).

Wavelet Transform and Neural Networks in Fault Diagnosis of a Motor Rotor

In the motor fault diagnosis technique, vibration and stator current frequency components of detection are two main means. This article will discuss the signal detection method based on vibration fault. Because the motor vibration signal is a non-stationary random signal, fault signals often contain a lot of time-varying, burst proper- ties of ingredients. The traditional Fourier signal analysis can not effectively extract the motor fault characteristics, but are also likely to be rich in failure information but a weak signal as noise. Therefore, we introduce wavelet packet transforms to extract the fault characteristics of the signal information. Obtained was the result as the neural network input signal, using the L-M neural network optimization method for training, and then used the BP net- work for fault recognition. This paper uses Matlab software to simulate and confirmed the method of motor fault di- agnosis validity and accuracy
