Stress-assisted corrosion mechanism of 3Ni steel by using gradient boosting decision tree machining learning method

Traditional 3Ni weathering steel cannot completely meet the requirements for offshore engineering development,resulting in the design of novel 3Ni steel with the addition of microalloy elements such as Mn or Nb for strength enhancement becoming a trend.The stress-assisted corrosion behavior of a novel designed high-strength 3Ni steel was investigated in the current study using the corrosion big data method.The information on the corrosion process was recorded using the galvanic corrosion current monitoring method.The gradi-ent boosting decision tree(GBDT)machine learning method was used to mine the corrosion mechanism,and the importance of the struc-ture factor was investigated.Field exposure tests were conducted to verify the calculated results using the GBDT method.Results indic-ated that the GBDT method can be effectively used to study the influence of structural factors on the corrosion process of 3Ni steel.Dif-ferent mechanisms for the addition of Mn and Cu to the stress-assisted corrosion of 3Ni steel suggested that Mn and Cu have no obvious effect on the corrosion rate of non-stressed 3Ni steel during the early stage of corrosion.When the corrosion reached a stable state,the in-crease in Mn element content increased the corrosion rate of 3Ni steel,while Cu reduced this rate.In the presence of stress,the increase in Mn element content and Cu addition can inhibit the corrosion process.The corrosion law of outdoor-exposed 3Ni steel is consistent with the law based on corrosion big data technology,verifying the reliability of the big data evaluation method and data prediction model selection.

Recognition of Hybrid PQ Disturbances Based on Multi-Resolution S-Transform and Decision Tree

Aiming at the problems of multiple types of power quality composite disturbances,strong feature correlation and high recognition error rate,a method of power quality composite disturbances identification based on multiresolution S-transform and decision tree was proposed.Firstly,according to IEEE standard,the signal models of seven single power quality disturbances and 17 combined power quality disturbances are given,and the disturbance waveform samples are generated in batches.Then,in order to improve the recognition accuracy,the adjustment factor is introduced to obtain the controllable time-frequency resolution through multi-resolution S-transform time-frequency domain analysis.On this basis,five disturbance time-frequency domain features are extracted,which quantitatively reflect the characteristics of the analyzed power quality disturbance signal,which is less than the traditional method based on S-transform.Finally,three classifiers such as K-nearest neighbor,support vector machine and decision tree algorithm are used to effectively complete the identification of power quality composite disturbances.Simulation results showthat the classification accuracy of decision tree algorithmis higher than that of K-nearest neighbor and support vector machine.Finally,the proposed method is compared with other commonly used recognition algorithms.Experimental results show that the proposedmethod is effective in terms of detection accuracy,especially for combined PQ interference.

Landslide susceptibility zonation method based on C5.0 decision tree and K-means cluster algorithms to improve the efficiency of risk management

Machine learning algorithms are an important measure with which to perform landslide susceptibility assessments, but most studies use GIS-based classification methods to conduct susceptibility zonation.This study presents a machine learning approach based on the C5.0 decision tree(DT) model and the K-means cluster algorithm to produce a regional landslide susceptibility map. Yanchang County, a typical landslide-prone area located in northwestern China, was taken as the area of interest to introduce the proposed application procedure. A landslide inventory containing 82 landslides was prepared and subsequently randomly partitioned into two subsets: training data(70% landslide pixels) and validation data(30% landslide pixels). Fourteen landslide influencing factors were considered in the input dataset and were used to calculate the landslide occurrence probability based on the C5.0 decision tree model.Susceptibility zonation was implemented according to the cut-off values calculated by the K-means cluster algorithm. The validation results of the model performance analysis showed that the AUC(area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve) of the proposed model was the highest, reaching 0.88,compared with traditional models(support vector machine(SVM) = 0.85, Bayesian network(BN) = 0.81,frequency ratio(FR) = 0.75, weight of evidence(WOE) = 0.76). The landslide frequency ratio and frequency density of the high susceptibility zones were 6.76/km^(2) and 0.88/km^(2), respectively, which were much higher than those of the low susceptibility zones. The top 20% interval of landslide occurrence probability contained 89% of the historical landslides but only accounted for 10.3% of the total area.Our results indicate that the distribution of high susceptibility zones was more focused without containing more " stable" pixels. Therefore, the obtained susceptibility map is suitable for application to landslide risk management practices.

Decision tree support vector machine based on genetic algorithm for multi-class classification

To solve the multi-class fault diagnosis tasks, decision tree support vector machine （DTSVM）, which combines SVM and decision tree using the concept of dichotomy, is proposed. Since the classification performance of DTSVM highly depends on its structure, to cluster the multi-classes with maximum distance between the clustering centers of the two sub-classes, genetic algorithm is introduced into the formation of decision tree, so that the most separable classes would be separated at each node of decisions tree. Numerical simulations conducted on three datasets compared with ＂one-against-all＂ and ＂one-against-one＂ demonstrate the proposed method has better performance and higher generalization ability than the two conventional methods.

Improving Decision Tree Performance by Exception Handling

This paper focuses on improving decision tree induction algorithms when a kind of tie appears during the rule generation procedure for specific training datasets. The tie occurs when there are equal proportions of the target class outcome in the leaf node＇s records that leads to a situation where majority voting cannot be applied. To solve the above mentioned exception, we propose to base the prediction of the result on the naive Bayes （NB） estimate, k-nearest neighbour （k-NN） and association rule mining （ARM）. The other features used for splitting the parent nodes are also taken into consideration.

Intelligent prediction of RBC demand in trauma patients using decision tree methods

Background:The vital signs of trauma patients are complex and changeable,and the prediction of blood transfusion demand mainly depends on doctors'experience and trauma scoring system;therefore,it cannot be accurately predicted.In this study,a machine learning decision tree algorithm[classification and regression tree(CRT)and eXtreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)]was proposed for the demand prediction of traumatic blood transfusion to provide technical support for doctors.Methods:A total of 1371 trauma patients who were diverted to the Emergency Department of the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2014 to January 2018 were collected from an emergency trauma database.The vital signs,laboratory examination parameters and blood transfusion volume were used as variables,and the non-invasive parameters and all(non-invasive+invasive)parameters were used to construct an intelligent prediction model for red blood cell(RBC)demand by logistic regression(LR),CRT and XGBoost.The prediction accuracy of the model was compared with the area under curve(AUC).Results:For non-invasive parameters,the LR method was the best,with an AUC of 0.72[95%confidence interval(CI)0.657–0.775],which was higher than the CRT(AUC 0.69,95%CI 0.633–0.751)and the XGBoost(AUC 0.71,95%CI 0.654–0.756)(P<0.05).The trauma location and shock index are important prediction parameters.For all the prediction parameters,XGBoost was the best,with an AUC of 0.94(95%CI 0.893–0.981),which was higher than the LR(AUC 0.80,95%CI 0.744–0.850)and the CRT(AUC 0.82,95%CI 0.779–0.853)(P<0.05).Haematocrit(Hct)is an important prediction parameter.Conclusions:The classification performance of the intelligent prediction model of red blood cell transfusion in trauma patients constructed by the decision tree algorithm is not inferior to that of the traditional LR method.It can be used as a technical support to assist doctors to make rapid and accurate blood transfusion decisions in emergency rescue environment,so as to improve the success rate of patient treatment.

Prediction of Web Services Reliability Based on Decision Tree Classification Method

With the development of the service-oriented computing(SOC),web service has an important and popular solution for the design of the application system to various enterprises.Nowadays,the numerous web services are provided by the service providers on the network,it becomes difficult for users to select the best reliable one from a large number of services with the same function.So it is necessary to design feasible selection strategies to provide users with the reliable services.Most existing methods attempt to select services according to accurate predictions for the quality of service(QoS)values.However,because the network and user needs are dynamic,it is almost impossible to accurately predict the QoS values.Furthermore,accurate prediction is generally time-consuming.This paper proposes a service decision tree based post-pruning prediction approach.This paper first defines the five reliability levels for measuring the reliability of services.By analyzing the quality data of service from the network,the proposed method can generate the training set and convert them into the service decision tree model.Using the generated model and the given predicted services,the proposed method classifies the service to the corresponding reliability level after discretizing the continuous attribute of service.Moreover,this paper applies the post-pruning strategy to optimize the generated model for avoiding the over-fitting.Experimental results show that the proposed method is effective in predicting the service reliability.

The productivity and quality in the turning process can be improved by utilizing the predicted performance of the cutting tools.This research incorporates condition monitoring of a non-carbide tool insert using vibration analysis along with machine learning and fuzzy logic approach.A non-carbide tool insert is considered for the process of cutting operation in a semi-automatic lathe,where the condition of tool is monitored using vibration characteristics.The vibration signals for conditions such as heathy,damaged,thermal and flank were acquired with the help of piezoelectric transducer and data acquisition system.The descriptive statistical features were extracted from the acquired vibration signal using the feature extraction techniques.The extracted statistical features were selected using a feature selection process through J48 decision tree algorithm.The selected features were classified using J48 decision tree and fuzzy to develop the fault diagnosis model for the improved predictive analysis.The decision tree model produced the classification accuracy as 94.78%with five selected features.The developed fuzzy model produced the classification accuracy as 94.02%with five membership functions.Hence,the decision tree has been proposed as a suitable fault diagnosis model for predicting the tool insert health condition under different fault conditions.

Who Will Come: Predicting Freshman Registration Based on Decision Tree

The registration rate of freshmen has been a great concern at many colleges and universities,particularly private institutions.Traditionally,there are two inquiry methods:telephone and tuition-payment-status.Unfortunately,the former is not only time-consuming but also suffers from the fact that many students tend to keep their choices secret.On the other hand,the latter is not always feasible because only few students are willing to pay their university tuition fees in advance.It is often believed that it is impossible to predict incoming freshmen’s choice of university due to the large amount of subjectivity.However,if we look at the two major considerations a potential freshman contemplates in making a choice,such as the geographical location of the university in relation to his/her home town,and testimonies about of that college life experience by previous graduates,we believe it is possible to predict future enrollment decisions.This paper is the first to find a way to solve the problem of predicting the choice of university a freshman will attend.Our contributions include the following:1.we present a dataset on freshman registration;2.we propose a decision-tree-based approach for freshman registration prediction.Study results show that freshman registration is predictable.
