The centralized and distributed fusion schemes are applied to combine information from several data sources. In the centralized scheme, all information from several data sources is centralized to construct an input space. Then a multi-class Support Vector Machine classifier is trained. In the distributed schemes, the individual data sources are proc-essed separately and modelled by using the multi-class Support Vector Machine. Then new data fusion strategies are proposed to combine the information from the individual multi-class Support Vector Machine models. Our proposed fusion strategies take into account that an Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier achieves classification by finding the optimal classification hyperplane with maximal margin. The proposed methods are applied for fault diagnosis of a diesel engine. The experimental results showed that almost all the proposed approaches can largely improve the diagnostic accuracy. The robustness of diagnosis is also improved because of the implementation of data fusion strategies. The proposed methods can also be applied in other fields.展开更多

Not only that testing exists in each software iteration cycle, but it also consumes a considerable amount of resources. While resources such as machinery and manpower are often restricted, it is crucial to decide where and how much effort to put into testing. One way to address this problem is to identify which components of the subject under the test are more error-prone and thus demand more testing efforts. Recent development in machine learning techniques shows promising potential to predict faults in different components of a software system. This work conducts an empirical study to explore the feasibility of using static software metrics to predict software faults. We apply four machine learning techniques to construct fault prediction models from the PROMISE data set and evaluate the effectiveness of using static software metrics to build fault prediction models in four continuous versions of Apache Ant. The empirical results show that the combined software metrics generate the least misclassification errors. The fault prediction results vary significantly among different machine learning techniques and data set. Overall, fault prediction models built with the support vector machine (SVM) have the lowest misclassification errors.展开更多
