AMicroseismic Signal Denoising Algorithm Combining VMD and Wavelet Threshold Denoising Optimized by BWOA

The denoising of microseismic signals is a prerequisite for subsequent analysis and research.In this research,a new microseismic signal denoising algorithm called the Black Widow Optimization Algorithm(BWOA)optimized VariationalMode Decomposition(VMD)jointWavelet Threshold Denoising(WTD)algorithm(BVW)is proposed.The BVW algorithm integrates VMD and WTD,both of which are optimized by BWOA.Specifically,this algorithm utilizes VMD to decompose the microseismic signal to be denoised into several Band-Limited IntrinsicMode Functions(BLIMFs).Subsequently,these BLIMFs whose correlation coefficients with the microseismic signal to be denoised are higher than a threshold are selected as the effective mode functions,and the effective mode functions are denoised using WTD to filter out the residual low-and intermediate-frequency noise.Finally,the denoised microseismic signal is obtained through reconstruction.The ideal values of VMD parameters and WTD parameters are acquired by searching with BWOA to achieve the best VMD decomposition performance and solve the problem of relying on experience and requiring a large workload in the application of the WTD algorithm.The outcomes of simulated experiments indicate that this algorithm is capable of achieving good denoising performance under noise of different intensities,and the denoising performance is significantly better than the commonly used VMD and Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD)algorithms.The BVW algorithm is more efficient in filtering noise,the waveform after denoising is smoother,the amplitude of the waveform is the closest to the original signal,and the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and the root mean square error after denoising are more satisfying.The case based on Fankou Lead-Zinc Mine shows that for microseismic signals with different intensities of noise monitored on-site,compared with VMD and EMD,the BVW algorithm ismore efficient in filtering noise,and the SNR after denoising is higher.

This work presents a novel wavelet-based denoising technique for improving the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of nonsteady vibration signals in hardware redundant systems.The proposed method utilizes the relationship between redundant hardware components to effectively separate fault-related components from the vibration signature,thus enhancing fault detection accuracy.The study evaluates the proposed technique on two mechanically identical subsystems that are simultaneously controlled under the same speed and load inputs,with and without the proposed denoising step.The results demonstrate an increase in detection accuracy when incorporating the proposed denoising method into a fault detection system designed for hardware redundant machinery.This work is original in its application of a new method for improving performance when using residual analysis for fault detection in hardware redundant machinery configurations.Moreover,the proposed methodology is applicable to nonstationary equipment that experiences changes in both speed and load.

Real-time Virtual Environment Signal Extraction and Denoising Using Programmable Graphics Hardware

The sense of being within a three-dimensional （3D） space and interacting with virtual 3D objects in a computer-generated virtual environment （VE） often requires essential image, vision and sensor signal processing techniques such as differentiating and denoising. This paper describes novel implementations of the Gaussian filtering for characteristic signal extraction and waveletbased image denoising algorithms that run on the graphics processing unit （GPU）. While significant acceleration over standard CPU implementations is obtained through exploiting data parallelism provided by the modern programmable graphics hardware, the CPU can be freed up to run other computations more efficiently such as artificial intelligence （AI） and physics. The proposed GPU-based Gaussian filtering can extract surface information from a real object and provide its material features for rendering and illumination. The wavelet-based signal denoising for large size digital images realized in this project provided better realism for VE visualization without sacrificing real-time and interactive performances of an application.

The processing results show that random noise is effectively suppressed and the signal to noise ratio improves remarkably. The lifting wavelet transform is an efficient algorithm.

Coupling denoising algorithm based on discrete wavelet transform and modified median filter for medical image

In order to overcome the phenomenon of image blur and edge loss in the process of collecting and transmitting medical image,a denoising method of medical image based on discrete wavelet transform(DWT)and modified median filter for medical image coupling denoising is proposed.The method is composed of four modules:image acquisition,image storage,image processing and image reconstruction.Image acquisition gets the medical image that contains Gaussian noise and impulse noise.Image storage includes the preservation of data and parameters of the original image and processed image.In the third module,the medical image is decomposed as four sub bands(LL,HL,LH,HH)by wavelet decomposition,where LL is low frequency,LH,HL,HH are respective for horizontal,vertical and in the diagonal line high frequency component.Using improved wavelet threshold to process high frequency coefficients and retain low frequency coefficients,the modified median filtering is performed on three high frequency sub bands after wavelet threshold processing.The last module is image reconstruction,which means getting the image after denoising by wavelet reconstruction.The advantage of this method is combining the advantages of median filter and wavelet to make the denoising effect better,not a simple combination of the two previous methods.With DWT and improved median filter coefficients coupling denoising,it is highly practical for high-precision medical images containing complex noises.The experimental results of proposed algorithm are compared with the results of median filter,wavelet transform,contourlet and DT-CWT,etc.According to visual evaluation index PSNR and SNR and Canny edge detection,in low noise images,PSNR and SNR increase by 10%–15%;in high noise images,PSNR and SNR increase by 2%–6%.The experimental results of the proposed algorithm achieved better acceptable results compared with other methods,which provides an important method for the diagnosis of medical condition.

NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR FAULT DIAGNOSIS BASED ON WAVELET DENOISING AND MODIFIED EXPONENTIAL TIME-FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION

Fast wavelet multi-resolution analysis (wavelet MRA) provides a effective tool for analyzing and canceling disturbing components in original signal. Because of its exponential frequency axis, this method isn't suitable for extracting harmonic components. The modified exponential time-frequency distribution ( MED) overcomes the problems of Wigner distribution( WD) ,can suppress cross-terms and cancel noise further more. MED provides high resolution in both time and frequency domains, so it can make out weak period impulse components fmm signal with mighty harmonic components. According to the 'time' behavior, together with 'frequency' behavior in one figure,the essential structure of a signal is revealed clearly. According to the analysis of algorithm and fault diagnosis example, the joint of wavelet MRA and MED is a powerful tool for fault diagnosis.

Wavelet Denoising of Flight Flutter Testing Data for Improvement of Parameter Identification

The accuracy of modal parameter estimation plays a crucial role in flutter boundary prediction. A new wavelet denoising method is introduced for flight flutter testing data, which can improve the estimation of frequency domain identification algorithms. In this method, the testing data is first preprocessed with a gradient inverse weighted filter to initially lower the noise. The redundant wavelet transform is then used to decompose the signal into several levels. A “clean” input is recovered from the noisy data by level dependent thresholding approach, and the noise of output is reduced by a modified spatially selective noise filtration technique. The advantage of the wavelet denoising is illustrated by means of simulated and real data.

SAR image denoising based on wavelet-fractal analysis

Wavelet-fractal based SAR （synthetic aperture radar） image processing is one of the advanced technologies in image processing. The main concept of analysis is that after wavelet transformation, multifractal spectrum of the signal is different from that of noise. This difference is used to alleviate the noise produced by SAR image.The method to denoise SAR image using the process based on wavelet-fractai analysis is discussed in detail. Essentially, the present method focuses on adjusting the Hoelder exponent α of multifractal spectrum. After simulation, α should be adjusted to 1.72-1.73. The more the value of α exceeds 1.73, the less distinctive the edges of SAR image become. According to the authors denoising is optimal at α=1.72-1.73. In other words, when α =1.72-1.73, a smooth and denoised SAR image is produced.

Translation-invariant wavelet denoising of full-tensor gravity-gradiometer data

Denoising of full-tensor gravity-gradiometer data involves detailed information from field sources, especially the data mixed with high-frequency random noise. We present a denoising method based on the translation-invariant wavelet with mixed thresholding and adaptive threshold to remove the random noise and retain the data details. The novel mixed thresholding approach is devised to filter the random noise based on the energy distribution of the wavelet coefficients corresponding to the signal and random noise. The translation- invariant wavelet suppresses pseudo-Gibbs phenomena, and the mixed thresholding better separates the wavelet coefficients than traditional thresholding. Adaptive Bayesian threshold is used to process the wavelet coefficients according to the specific characteristics of the wavelet coefficients at each decomposition scale. A two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform is used to denoise gridded data for better computational efficiency. The results of denoising model and real data suggest that compared with Gaussian regional filter, the proposed method suppresses the white Gaussian noise and preserves the high-frequency information in gravity-gradiometer data. Satisfactory denoising is achieved with the translation-invariant wavelet.

It overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional Fourier denoising method. In this paper, the denoising procedures are introduced respectively based on the wavelet transform and the method of connecting the wavelet threshold with the wavelet basis is adopted. Through Matlab simulation and concrete data, it arrives at the conclusion that the method of signal denoising based on the wavelet transform is obviously more effective and better than the traditional method based on Fourier transform.

Image denoising algorithm of refuge chamber by combining wavelet transform and bilateral filtering

In order to preferably identify infrared image of refuge chamber, reduce image noises of refuge chamber and retain more image details, we propose the method of combining two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform and bilateral denoising. First, the wavelet transform is adopted to decompose the image of refuge chamber, of which low frequency component remains unchanged. Then, three high-frequency components are treated by bilateral filtering, and the image is reconstructed. The result shows that the combination of bilateral filtering and wavelet transform for image denoising can better retain the details which are included in the image, while providing better visual effect. This is superior to using either bilateral filtering or wavelet transform alone. It is useful for perfecting emergency refuge system of coal mines.

Multi-level denoising and enhancement method based on wavelet transform for mine monitoring

Based on low illumination and a large number of mixed noises contained in coal mine, denoising with one method usually cannot achieve good results, so a multi-level image denoising method based on wavelet correlation relevant inter-scale is presented. Firstly, we used directional median filter to effectively reduce impulse noise in the spatial domain, which is the main cause of noise in mine. Secondly, we used a Wiener filtration method to mainly reduce the Gaussian noise, and then finally used a multi-wavelet transform to minimize the remaining noise of low-light images in the transform domain. This multi-level image noise reduction method combines spatial and transform domain denoising to enhance benefits, and effectively reduce impulse noise and Gaussian noise in a coal mine, while retaining good detailed image characteristics of the underground for improving quality of images with mixing noise and effective low-light environment.

This paper suggests a scheme of image denoising based on two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform. The denoising algorithm is described with some operators. By thresholding the wavelet transform coefficients of noisy images, the original image can be reconstructed correctly. Different threshold selections and thresholding methods are discussed. A new robust local threshold scheme is proposed. Quantifying the performance of image denoising schemes by using the mean square error, the performance of the robust local threshold scheme is demonstrated and is compared with the universal threshold scheme. The experiment shows that image denoising using the robust local threshold performs better than that using the universal threshold.

Lift fin stabilizers based on data fusion with wavelet denoising technology

Fin stabilizers with fin-lift feedback control can shield the mapping error of calculation between the fin angle and fin lift force,which is in the fin stabilizer with fin-angle feedback control.In practice,there are some technical difficulties in lift fin stabilizers,such as lift force detection and lift force sensor installation,so it cannot achieve the good antirolling performance.Therefore,a fin stabilizer system with fin-lift/fin-angle integrated control is brought forward.Data fusion based on wavelet denoising technology is employed in the system,which combines lift with fin angle local information from two sensors with different frequency ranges in order to eliminate redundant and contradictory information,and using complementary information to obtain the relative integrity of the lift force signal.The system model is established in this paper,and the fusion signal and the antirolling performance of this model are simulated respectively.The result shows that the control system can meet the antirolling need in different sea situations.

Denoising Method for Partial Discharge Signal of Switchgear Based on Continuous Adaptive Wavelet Threshold

Partial discharge(PD)is an important reason for the insulation failure of the switchgear.In the process of PD detection,PD signal is often annihilated in strong noise.In order to improve the accuracy of PD detection in power plant switchgear,a method based on continuous adaptive wavelet threshold switchgear PD signals denoising is proposed in this paper.By constructing a continuous adaptive threshold function and introducing adjustment parameters,the problems of over⁃processing of traditional hard threshold functions and incomplete denoising of soft threshold functions can be improved.The analysis results of simulated signals and measured signals show that the continuous adaptive wavelet threshold denoising method is significantly better than the traditional denoising method for the PD signal.The proposed method in this paper retains the characteristics of the original signal.Compared with the traditional denoising methods,after denoising the simulated signals,the signal⁃to⁃noise ratio(SNR)is increased by more than 30%,and the root⁃mean⁃square error(RMSE)is reduced by more than 30%.After denoising the real signal,the noise suppression ratio(NRR)is increased by more than 40%.The recognition accuracy rate of PD signal has also been improved to a certain extent,which proves that the method has a certain practicability.

Denoising of hyperspectral imagery by cubic smoothing spline in the wavelet domain

The acquired hyperspectral images （HSIs） are inherently attected by noise wlm Dano-varylng level, which cannot be removed easily by current approaches. In this study, a new denoising method is proposed for removing such kind of noise by smoothing spectral signals in the transformed multi- scale domain. Specifically, the proposed method includes three procedures： 1 ） applying a discrete wavelet transform （DWT） to each band; 2） performing cubic spline smoothing on each noisy coeffi- cient vector along the spectral axis; 3 ） reconstructing each band by an inverse DWT. In order to adapt to the band-varying noise statistics of HSIs, the noise covariance is estimated to control the smoothing degree at different spectra｜ positions. Generalized cross validation （GCV） is employed to choose the smoothing parameter during the optimization. The experimental results on simulated and real HSIs demonstrate that the proposed method can be well adapted to band-varying noise statistics of noisy HSIs and also can well preserve the spectral and spatial features.
