The scheme combines the wavelet transform and traditional Sobel and LoG (Laplacian of Gaussian) operator edge-detection algorithms. The precise theory analysis is given to show that the wavelet transformation has an advantage for signal processing. Simulation results show that the new scheme is better than only using the Sobel or LoG methods. Complexity analysis is also given and the conclusion is acceptable, therefore the proposed scheme is effective for edge detection.展开更多

The sketch of the MOFL system equipped with a compact multi-channel photomultiplier tube(MPMT) is introduced in the paper. The methods of differentiating the oil fluorescence from the background water fluorescence and evaluating the Chl-a concentration are described. Two field experiments were carried out to investigate the field performance of the system, i.e., an experiment in coastal areas for oil pollution detection and an experiment over the Yellow Sea for Chl-a monitoring. In the coastal experiment, several oil samples and other fluorescence substances were used to analyze the fluorescence spectral characteristics for oil identification, and to estimate the thickness of oil films at the water surface. The experiment shows that both the spectral shape of fluorescence induced from surface water and the intensity ratio of two channels(I495/I405) are essential to determine oil-spill occurrence. In the airborne experiment, MOFL was applied to measure relative Chl-a concentrations in the upper layer of the ocean. A comparison of relative Chl-a concentration measurements by MOFL and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) indicates that the two datasets are in good agreement. The results show that the MOFL system is capable of monitoring oil spills and Chl-a in the upper layer of ocean water.展开更多

Secondly, the modified bubble function is combined with SWT to construct a multiresolution network. By using the modified bubble function to enhance the edges and by using SWT to reduce the noises, the edges can be extracted accurately,effectively and quickly with lower noise.Finally, the experimental results of the proposed edge detection algorithm are verified to be better than that with the traditional bubble function.展开更多

The proposed technique depends on a sensitive fault detection parameter (denoted DET) calculated from the wavelet multi-resolution decomposition of the three phase currents only. This parameter is fast and sensitive to any small changes in the current signal since it uses the square of the first and second details of the decomposed signals. The simulation results of this study clearly show that the proposed technique can be successfully used to detect and classify not only low-current faults that could not be detected by conventional overcurrent relays but also normal transients like load switching and inrush currents.展开更多
