Due to the complex operation process and frequent fluctuations of variables, conventional monitoring methods often bring false alarms. To address the above problem, an ensemble of greedy dynamic principal component analysis-Gaussian mixture model(EGDPCA-GMM) is proposed in this paper. First, PCA-GMM is introduced to deal with the collinearity and the non-Gaussian distribution of blast furnace data.Second, in order to explain the dynamics of data, the greedy algorithm is used to determine the extended variables and their corresponding time lags, so as to avoid introducing unnecessary noise. Then the bagging ensemble is adopted to cooperate with greedy extension to eliminate the randomness brought by the greedy algorithm and further reduce the false alarm rate(FAR) of monitoring results. Finally, the algorithm is applied to the blast furnace of a large iron and steel group in South China to verify performance.Compared with the basic algorithms, the proposed method achieves lowest FAR, while keeping missed alarm rate(MAR) remain stable.展开更多

Based on the theory of Chen et al, we propose an improved pruning algorithm for the GM-PHD filter, which utilizes not only the Gaussian components’ means and covariance, but their weights as a new criterion to improve the estimate accuracy of the conventional pruning algorithm for tracking very closely proximity targets. Moreover, it solves the end-less while-loop problem without the need of a second merging step. Simulation results show that this improved algorithm is easier to implement and more robust than the formal ones.展开更多

In the process of extracting the moving region, the improved three-frame difference method uses the dynamic segmentation threshold and edge detection technology, and it is first used to solve the problems such as the illumination mutation and the discontinuity of the target edge. Then, a new adaptive selection strategy of the number of Gaussian distributions is introduced to reduce the processing time and improve accuracy of detection. Finally, HSV color space is used to remove shadow regions, and the whole moving object is detected. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can detect moving objects in various situations effectively.展开更多

In the process of extracting the moving region, the improved three-frame difference method uses the dynamic segmentation threshold and edge detection technology, and it is first used to solve the problems such as the illumination mutation and the discontinuity of the target edge. Then, a new adaptive selection strategy of the number of Gaussian distributions is introduced to reduce the processing time and improve accuracy of detection. Finally, HSV color space is used to remove shadow regions, and the whole moving object is detected. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can detect moving objects in various situations effectively.

文摘In recent years,image restoration has become a huge subject,and finite hybrid model has been widely used in image denoising because of its easy modeling and strong explanatory results.The gaussian mixture model is the most common one.The existing image denoising methods usually assume that each component of the natural image is subject to the gaussian mixture model(GMM).However,this approach is not entirely reasonable.It is well known that most natural images are complex and their distribution is not entirely gaussian.As a result,there are still many problems that GMM cannot solve.This paper tries to improve the finite mixture model and introduces the asymmetric gaussian mixture model into it.Since the asymmetric gaussian mixture model can simulate the asymmetric distribution on the basis of the gaussian mixture model,it is more consistent with the natural image data,so the denoising effect of the natural complex image is better.We carried out image denoising experiments under different noise scales and types,and found that the asymmetric gaussian mixture model has better denoising effect and performance.

文摘To enrich the diversity of artificial neurons,a type of quadratic neurons was proposed previously,where the inner product of inputs and weights is replaced by a quadratic operation.In this paper,we demonstrate the superiority of such quadratic neurons over conventional counterparts.For this purpose,we train such quadratic neural networks using an adapted backpropagation algorithm and perform a systematic comparison between quadratic and conventional neural networks for classificaiton of Gaussian mixture data,which is one of the most important machine learning tasks.Our results show that quadratic neural networks enjoy remarkably better efficacy and efficiency than conventional neural networks in this context,and potentially extendable to other relevant applications.

文摘To learn from evolutionary experimental data points effectively,an evolutionary Gaussian mixture model based on constraint consistency(EGMM)is proposed and the corresponding method of parameter optimization is presented.Here,the Gaussian mixture model(GMM)is adopted to describe the data points,and the differences between the posterior probabilities of pairwise points under the current parameters are introduced to measure the temporal smoothness.Then,parameter optimization of EGMM can be realized by evolutionary clustering.Compared with most of the existing data analysis methods by evolutionary clustering,both the whole features and individual differences of data points are considered in the clustering framework of EGMM.It decreases the algorithm sensitivity to noises and increases the robustness of evaluated parameters.Experimental result shows that the clustering sequence really reflects the shift of data distribution,and the proposed algorithm can provide better clustering quality and temporal smoothness.

文摘The remaining useful life(RUL)prediction is a crucial indicator for the lithium-ion battery health prognostic.The particle filter(PF),used together with an empirical model,has become one of the most well-accepted techniques for RUL prediction.In this work,a novel filtering algorithm,named the Gaussian mixture model(GMM)-ensemble Kalman filter(EnKF)is proposed.It embeds the Gaussian mixture model in the EnKF framework to cope with the non-Gaussian feature of the system state space,and meanwhile address some of the major shortcomings of the PF.The GMM-EnKF and the PF are both applied on public data sets for RUL prediction and the simulation results show superiority of our proposed approach to the PF.

文摘Voice conversion algorithm aims to provide high level of similarity to the target voice with an acceptable level of quality.The main object of this paper was to build a nonlinear relationship between the parameters for the acoustical features of source and target speaker using Non-Linear Canonical Correlation Analysis(NLCCA) based on jointed Gaussian mixture model.Speaker indi-viduality transformation was achieved mainly by altering vocal tract characteristics represented by Line Spectral Frequencies(LSF).To obtain the transformed speech which sounded more like the target voices,prosody modification is involved through residual prediction.Both objective and subjective evaluations were conducted.The experimental results demonstrated that our proposed algorithm was effective and outperformed the conventional conversion method utilized by the Minimum Mean Square Error(MMSE) estimation.
文摘Intrusion detection is the investigation process of information about the system activities or its data to detect any malicious behavior or unauthorized activity.Most of the IDS implement K-means clustering technique due to its linear complexity and fast computing ability.Nonetheless,it is Naïve use of the mean data value for the cluster core that presents a major drawback.The chances of two circular clusters having different radius and centering at the same mean will occur.This condition cannot be addressed by the K-means algorithm because the mean value of the various clusters is very similar together.However,if the clusters are not spherical,it fails.To overcome this issue,a new integrated hybrid model by integrating expectation maximizing(EM)clustering using a Gaussian mixture model(GMM)and naïve Bays classifier have been proposed.In this model,GMM give more flexibility than K-Means in terms of cluster covariance.Also,they use probabilities function and soft clustering,that’s why they can have multiple cluster for a single data.In GMM,we can define the cluster form in GMM by two parameters:the mean and the standard deviation.This means that by using these two parameters,the cluster can take any kind of elliptical shape.EM-GMM will be used to cluster data based on data activity into the corresponding category.
