In the process of this research, groundwater monitoring network is considered as a communication system with a capability to transfer information, and monitoring wells are taken as information receivers. The concepts of entropy and mutual information are then applied to measure the information content of individual monitoring well and information relationship between monitoring well pairs. The efficiency of information transfer among monitoring wells is the basis to judge the redundancy in the network.

This approach is demonstrated using the data from a regional scale groundwater network in Hebei plain, China. The result shows that the entropy based method is recommendable in optimizing groundwater networks, especially for those within media of higher heterogeneities and anisotropies.展开更多

Therefore, evaluation and inferring the data perfectly to prevent fire related accidental risk in underground coal mining (UMC) system are very necessary. In the present article, we have proposed a novel type-2 fuzzy logic system (T2FLS) for the prediction of fire intensity and its risk assessment for risk reduction in an underground coal mine. Recently, for the observation of underground coal mines, wireless underground sensor network (WUSN) are being concerned frequently. To implement this technique IT2FLS, main functional components are sensor nodes which are installed in coal mines to accumulate different imprecise environmental data like, temperature, relative humidity, different gas concentrations etc. and these are sent to a base station which is connected to the ground observation system through network. In the present context, a WUSN based fire monitoring system is developed using fuzzy logic approach to enhance the consistency in decision making system to improve the risk chances of fire during coal mining. We have taken Mamdani IT2FLS as fuzzy model on coal mine monitoring data to consider real-time decision making (DM). It is predicted from the simulated results that the recommended system is highly acceptable and amenable in the case of fire hazard safety with compared to the wired and off-line monitoring system for UMC. Legitimacy of the suggested model is prepared using statistical analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.展开更多

In this paper, we propose to apply the persistent scatterer synthetic aperture radar interferometry (PS-InSAR) approach that uses high- resolution TerraSAR-X (TSX) imagery to extract the regional scale subsidence rates (i.e., average annual sub- sidence in mm/year) along road networks. The primary procedures involve interferometric pair selection, interfer- ogram generation, persistent scatterer (PS) detection, PS networking, phase parameterization, and subsidence rate estimation. The Xiqing District in southwest Tianjin (China) is selected as the study area. This district contains one railway line and several highway lines. A total of 15 TSX images covering this area between April 2009 and June 2010 are utilized to obtain the subsidence rates by using the PS-InSAR (PSI) approach. The subsidence rates derived from PSI range from -68.7 to -1.3 mm/year. These findings show a significantly uneven subsidence pattern along the road network. Comparison between the PSI-derived subsidence rates and the leveling data obtained along the highways shows that the mean and standard deviation (SD) of the discrepancies between the two types of subsidence rates are 0.1 and 4-3.2 mm/year, respectively. The results indicate that the high-resolution TSX PSI is capable of providing comprehensive and detailed subsidence information regarding road networks with millimeter-level accuracy. Further inspections under geo- logical conditions and land-use categories in the study area indicate that the observed subsidence is highly related to aquifer compression due to groundwater pumping. Therefore, measures should be taken to mitigate groundwater extraction for the study area.展开更多

In the recent decades, rapid developments in digital technology, micro-electromechanical systems, low power micro-sensing technologies and improved industrial manufacturing processes have resulted in retrieving real-time data through Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) systems. In this study, a remotely operated low-cost and robust WSN system was developed to monitor and collect real-time hydrologic data from a small agricultural watershed in harsh weather conditions and upland rolling topography of Southern Ontario, Canada. The WSN system was assembled using off-the-shelf hardware components, and an open source operating system was used to minimize the cost. The developed system was rigorously tested in the laboratory and the field and found to be accurate and reliable for monitoring climatic and hydrologic parameters. The soil moisture and runoff data for 7 springs, 19 summer, and 19 fall season rainfall events over the period of more than two years were successfully collected in a small experimental agricultural watershed situated near Elora, Ontario, Canada. The developed WSN system can be readily extended for the purpose of most hydrological monitoring applications, although it was explicitly tailored for a project focused on mapping the Variable Source Areas (VSAs) in a small agricultural watershed.展开更多

But the feature extraction andidentification of the power spectrum have always been an unresolved difficult problem. This papersolves it through decomposition of the power spectrum in multilayers using wavelet transform andextraction of the low frequency decomposition coefficient as the envelope information of the powerspectrum. Intelligent identification of the tool wear status is achieved in the drilling processthrough fusing the wavelet decomposition coefficient of the power spectrum by using a BP (BackPropagation) neural network. The experimental results show that the features of the power spectrumcan be extracted efficiently through this method, and the trained neural networks show highidentification precision and the ability of extension.展开更多

The solving model uses the difference to stand for the first derivative of functions and solves the revised feasible direction to get the optimal solution to unknown parameters. It can not only make the solution to converge on the minimum point of the constraint problem, but decrease the calculating load.展开更多

The objective function—the dependence of hybrid channel outage capacity upon the error rate, jointly quantifies the effects of atmospheric optical impairments on the performance of the free space optical segment as well as the effect of RF channel impairments on the radio frequency segment. The objective function is developed from the basic information-theoretic capacity of the optical and radio channels using the gamma-gamma model for optical fading and Ricean statistics for the radio channel fading. A simulation is performed by using the hybrid network. The objective function is shown to provide significantly improved sensitivity to degrading performance trends and supports of proactive link failure prediction and mitigation when compared to current thresholding techniques for signal quality metrics.展开更多

In this study, five monitoring feature parameters, which will be used to monitor tool condition, are selected by means of vibration signal spectral analysis. In order to meet the need of the system real time, this paper presents a neural network with fuzzy inference. Fuzzy neural network requires less computation than backpropagation neural network, and can easily describe the relationship between the tool conditions and the monitoring indices. The experimental results indicate that the use of vibration signal for on--line drilling condition monitoring is feasible.展开更多

Delivery delay and cross-cluster calculation leads to information inaccuracy by the existing dynamic collabo-rative self-organization algorithm in WSNs. In this letter,a Local Dynamic Cluster Self-organization algorithm (LDCS) is proposed for the large-scale regional and moving target monitoring in RM-WSNs. The algorithm utilizes the resource-rich node in WSNs as the cluster head,which processes target information obtained by sensor nodes in cluster. The cluster head shifts with the target moving in chance and re-groups a new cluster. The target information acquisition is limited in the dynamic cluster,which can reduce information across-clusters transfer delay and improve the real-time of information acquisition. The simulation results show that,LDCS can not only relieve the problem of "too frequent leader switches" in IDSQ,also make full use of the history monitoring information of target and con-tinuous monitoring of sensor nodes that failed in DCS.展开更多

文摘Ground subsidence is one of the key factors damaging transportation facilities, e.g., road networks consisting of highways and railways. In this paper, we propose to apply the persistent scatterer synthetic aperture radar interferometry (PS-InSAR) approach that uses high- resolution TerraSAR-X (TSX) imagery to extract the regional scale subsidence rates (i.e., average annual sub- sidence in mm/year) along road networks. The primary procedures involve interferometric pair selection, interfer- ogram generation, persistent scatterer (PS) detection, PS networking, phase parameterization, and subsidence rate estimation. The Xiqing District in southwest Tianjin (China) is selected as the study area. This district contains one railway line and several highway lines. A total of 15 TSX images covering this area between April 2009 and June 2010 are utilized to obtain the subsidence rates by using the PS-InSAR (PSI) approach. The subsidence rates derived from PSI range from -68.7 to -1.3 mm/year. These findings show a significantly uneven subsidence pattern along the road network. Comparison between the PSI-derived subsidence rates and the leveling data obtained along the highways shows that the mean and standard deviation (SD) of the discrepancies between the two types of subsidence rates are 0.1 and 4-3.2 mm/year, respectively. The results indicate that the high-resolution TSX PSI is capable of providing comprehensive and detailed subsidence information regarding road networks with millimeter-level accuracy. Further inspections under geo- logical conditions and land-use categories in the study area indicate that the observed subsidence is highly related to aquifer compression due to groundwater pumping. Therefore, measures should be taken to mitigate groundwater extraction for the study area.

文摘With the rapid development of social network,public opinion monitoring based on social networks is becoming more and more important.Many platforms have achieved some success in public opinion monitoring.However,these platforms cannot perform well in scalability,fault tolerance,and real-time performance.In this paper,we propose a novel social-network-oriented public opinion monitoring platform based on ElasticSearch(SNES).Firstly,SNES integrates the module of distributed crawler cluster,which provides real-time social media data access.Secondly,SNES integrates ElasticSearch which can store and retrieve massive unstructured data in near real time.Finally,we design subscription module based on Apache Kafka to connect the modules of the platform together in the form of message push and consumption,improving message throughput and the ability of dynamic horizontal scaling.A great number of empirical experiments prove that the platform can adapt well to the social network with highly real-time data and has good performance in public opinion monitoring.
文摘Hydrological monitoring and real-time access to data are valuable for hydrological research and water resources management. In the recent decades, rapid developments in digital technology, micro-electromechanical systems, low power micro-sensing technologies and improved industrial manufacturing processes have resulted in retrieving real-time data through Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) systems. In this study, a remotely operated low-cost and robust WSN system was developed to monitor and collect real-time hydrologic data from a small agricultural watershed in harsh weather conditions and upland rolling topography of Southern Ontario, Canada. The WSN system was assembled using off-the-shelf hardware components, and an open source operating system was used to minimize the cost. The developed system was rigorously tested in the laboratory and the field and found to be accurate and reliable for monitoring climatic and hydrologic parameters. The soil moisture and runoff data for 7 springs, 19 summer, and 19 fall season rainfall events over the period of more than two years were successfully collected in a small experimental agricultural watershed situated near Elora, Ontario, Canada. The developed WSN system can be readily extended for the purpose of most hydrological monitoring applications, although it was explicitly tailored for a project focused on mapping the Variable Source Areas (VSAs) in a small agricultural watershed.
文摘In a drilling process, the power spectrum of the drilling force is related tothe tool wear and is widely applied in the monitoring of tool wear. But the feature extraction andidentification of the power spectrum have always been an unresolved difficult problem. This papersolves it through decomposition of the power spectrum in multilayers using wavelet transform andextraction of the low frequency decomposition coefficient as the envelope information of the powerspectrum. Intelligent identification of the tool wear status is achieved in the drilling processthrough fusing the wavelet decomposition coefficient of the power spectrum by using a BP (BackPropagation) neural network. The experimental results show that the features of the power spectrumcan be extracted efficiently through this method, and the trained neural networks show highidentification precision and the ability of extension.
文摘Several industrial computers and a server are combined to set up the on-line monitoring and diagnostic system of turbo-generator sets. The main function of the system is to monitor machine sets' running condition. Through analyzing running data, technicians can detect whether there exist faults and where they occur. To share and transmit the dynamic information of the turbo-generator sets, a distributed network system is introduced. NetWare network operating system is used in the LAN (Local Area Network) system. The LAN is extended to realize the sharing of data and remote transmission of information. Furthermore, functions of monitoring and diagnostic clients are listed.
文摘Based on the nonlinear error equation of deformation network monitoring, the mathematical model of nonlinear dynamic optimal design of class two was put forward for the deformation network monitoring, in which the target function is the accuracy criterion and the constraint conditions are the network’s sensitivity, reliability and observing cost. Meanwhile a new non derivative solution to the nonlinear dynamic optimal design of class two was also put forward. The solving model uses the difference to stand for the first derivative of functions and solves the revised feasible direction to get the optimal solution to unknown parameters. It can not only make the solution to converge on the minimum point of the constraint problem, but decrease the calculating load.

文摘Cooperative spectrum monitoring with multiple sensors has been deemed as an efficient mechanism for improving the monitoring accuracy and enlarging the monitoring area in wireless sensor networks.However,there exists redundancy among the spectrum data collected by a sensor node within a data collection period,which may reduce the data uploading efficiency.In this paper,we investigate the inter-data commonality detection which describes how much two data have in common.We define common segment set and divide it into six categories firstly,then a method to measure a common segment set is conducted by extracting commonality between two files.Moreover,the existing algorithms fail in finding a good common segment set,so Common Data Measurement(CDM)algorithm that can identify a good common segment set based on inter-data commonality detection is proposed.Theoretical analysis proves that CDM algorithm achieves a good measurement for the commonality between two strings.In addition,we conduct an synthetic dataset which are produced randomly.Numerical results shows that CDM algorithm can get better performance in measuring commonality between two binary files compared with Greedy-String-Tiling(GST)algorithm and simple greedy algorithm.
文摘This study develops an optimal performance monitoring metric for a hybrid free space optical and radio wireless network, the Outage Capacity Objective Function. The objective function—the dependence of hybrid channel outage capacity upon the error rate, jointly quantifies the effects of atmospheric optical impairments on the performance of the free space optical segment as well as the effect of RF channel impairments on the radio frequency segment. The objective function is developed from the basic information-theoretic capacity of the optical and radio channels using the gamma-gamma model for optical fading and Ricean statistics for the radio channel fading. A simulation is performed by using the hybrid network. The objective function is shown to provide significantly improved sensitivity to degrading performance trends and supports of proactive link failure prediction and mitigation when compared to current thresholding techniques for signal quality metrics.
文摘This paper presents an investigation of tool condition monitoring based on fuzzy neural network for drilling. In this study, five monitoring feature parameters, which will be used to monitor tool condition, are selected by means of vibration signal spectral analysis. In order to meet the need of the system real time, this paper presents a neural network with fuzzy inference. Fuzzy neural network requires less computation than backpropagation neural network, and can easily describe the relationship between the tool conditions and the monitoring indices. The experimental results indicate that the use of vibration signal for on--line drilling condition monitoring is feasible.

文摘Wireless Sensor Networks for Rainfall Monitoring (RM-WSNs) is a sensor network for the large-scale regional and moving rainfall monitoring,which could be controlled deployment. Delivery delay and cross-cluster calculation leads to information inaccuracy by the existing dynamic collabo-rative self-organization algorithm in WSNs. In this letter,a Local Dynamic Cluster Self-organization algorithm (LDCS) is proposed for the large-scale regional and moving target monitoring in RM-WSNs. The algorithm utilizes the resource-rich node in WSNs as the cluster head,which processes target information obtained by sensor nodes in cluster. The cluster head shifts with the target moving in chance and re-groups a new cluster. The target information acquisition is limited in the dynamic cluster,which can reduce information across-clusters transfer delay and improve the real-time of information acquisition. The simulation results show that,LDCS can not only relieve the problem of "too frequent leader switches" in IDSQ,also make full use of the history monitoring information of target and con-tinuous monitoring of sensor nodes that failed in DCS.
