RECOGNITION OF WEAR PARTICLES IN LUBRICATING OIL USING LVQ NEURAL CLASSIFIER

A technique for wear particle identification using computer vision system is described. The computer vision system employs LVQ Neural Networks as classifier to recognize the surface texture of wear particles in lubricating oil and determine the conditions of machines. The recognition process includes four stages:(1)capturing image from ferrographies containing wear particles;(2) digitising the image and extracting features;(3) learning the training data selected from the feature data set;(4) identifying the wear particles and generating the result report of machine condition classification. To verify the technique proposed here, the recognition results of several typical classes of wear particles generated at the sliding and rolling surfaces in a diesel engine are presented.

Performance of Object Classification Using Zernike Moment

Moments have been used in all sorts of object classification systems based on image. There are lots of moments studied by many researchers in the area of object classification and one of the most preference moments is the Zernike moment. In this paper, the performance of object classification using the Zernike moment has been explored. The classifier based on neural networks has been used in this study. The results indicate the best performance in identifying the aggregate is at 91.4% with a ten orders of the Zernike moment. This encouraging result has shown that the Zernike moment is a suitable moment to be used as a feature of object classification systems.

An Efficient Cyber Security and Intrusion Detection System Using CRSR with PXORP-ECC and LTH-CNN

Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a network security mechanism that analyses all users’and applications’traffic and detectsmalicious activities in real-time.The existing IDSmethods suffer fromlower accuracy and lack the required level of security to prevent sophisticated attacks.This problem can result in the system being vulnerable to attacks,which can lead to the loss of sensitive data and potential system failure.Therefore,this paper proposes an Intrusion Detection System using Logistic Tanh-based Convolutional Neural Network Classification(LTH-CNN).Here,the Correlation Coefficient based Mayfly Optimization(CC-MA)algorithm is used to extract the input characteristics for the IDS from the input data.Then,the optimized features are utilized by the LTH-CNN,which returns the attacked and non-attacked data.After that,the attacked data is stored in the log file and non-attacked data is mapped to the cyber security and data security phases.To prevent the system from cyber-attack,the Source and Destination IP address is converted into a complex binary format named 1’s Complement Reverse Shift Right(CRSR),where,in the data security phase the sensed data is converted into an encrypted format using Senders Public key Exclusive OR Receivers Public Key-Elliptic Curve Cryptography(PXORP-ECC)Algorithm to improve the data security.TheNetwork Security Laboratory-Knowledge Discovery inDatabases(NSLKDD)dataset and real-time sensor are used to train and evaluate the proposed LTH-CNN.The suggested model is evaluated based on accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity,which outperformed the existing IDS methods,according to the results of the experiments.

Case study on the extraction of land cover information from the SAR image of a coal mining area

In this study,analyses are conducted on the information features of a construction site,a cornfield and subsidence seeper land in a coal mining area with a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image of medium resolution. Based on features of land cover of the coal mining area,on texture feature extraction and a selection method of a gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) of the SAR image,we propose in this study that the optimum window size for computing the GLCM is an appropriate sized window that can effectively distinguish different types of land cover. Next,a band combination was carried out over the text feature images and the band-filtered SAR image to secure a new multi-band image. After the transformation of the new image with principal component analysis,a classification is conducted selectively on three principal component bands with the most information. Finally,through training and experimenting with the samples,a better three-layered BP neural network was established to classify the SAR image. The results show that,assisted by texture information,the neural network classification improved the accuracy of SAR image classification by 14.6%,compared with a classification by maximum likelihood estimation without texture information.

Two-level hierarchical feature learning for image classification

In some image classification tasks, similarities among different categories are different and the samples are usually misclassified as highly similar categories. To distinguish highly similar categories, more specific features are required so that the classifier can improve the classification performance. In this paper, we propose a novel two-level hierarchical feature learning framework based on the deep convolutional neural network(CNN), which is simple and effective. First, the deep feature extractors of different levels are trained using the transfer learning method that fine-tunes the pre-trained deep CNN model toward the new target dataset. Second, the general feature extracted from all the categories and the specific feature extracted from highly similar categories are fused into a feature vector. Then the final feature representation is fed into a linear classifier. Finally, experiments using the Caltech-256, Oxford Flower-102, and Tasmania Coral Point Count(CPC) datasets demonstrate that the expression ability of the deep features resulting from two-level hierarchical feature learning is powerful. Our proposed method effectively increases the classification accuracy in comparison with flat multiple classification methods.

Prediction and analysis of process failures by ANN classification during wire-EDM of Inconel 718

Wire breakages and spark absence are two typical machining failures that occur during wire electric discharge machining(wire-EDM),if appropriate parameter settings are not maintained.Even after several attempts to optimize the process,machining failures cannot be eliminated completely.A n offline classification model is presented herein to predict machining failures.The aim of the current study is to develop a multiclass classification model using an artificial neural network(ANN).The training dataset comprises 81 full factorial experiments with three levels of pulse-on time,pulse-off time,servo voltage,and wire feed rate as input parameters.The classes are labeled as normal machining,spark absence,and wire breakage.The model accuracy is tested by conducting 20 confirmation experiments,and the model is discovered to be 95%accurate in classifying the machining outcomes.The effects of process parameters on the process failures are discussed and analyzed.A microstructural analysis of the machined surface and worn wire surface is conducted.The developed model proved to be an easy and fast solution for verifying and eliminating process failures.
