Detection method of forward-scatter signal based on Rényi entropy

The application scope of the forward scatter radar(FSR)based on the Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)can be expanded by improving the detection capability.Firstly,the forward-scatter signal model when the target crosses the baseline is constructed.Then,the detection method of the for-ward-scatter signal based on the Rényi entropy of time-fre-quency distribution is proposed and the detection performance with different time-frequency distributions is compared.Simula-tion results show that the method based on the smooth pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution(SPWVD)can achieve the best perfor-mance.Next,combined with the geometry of FSR,the influence on detection performance of the relative distance between the target and the baseline is analyzed.Finally,the proposed method is validated by the anechoic chamber measurements and the results show that the detection ability has a 10 dB improvement compared with the common constant false alarm rate(CFAR)detection.

Text Detection in Natural Scene Images Using Morphological Component Analysis and Laplacian Dictionary

Text in natural scene images usually carries abundant semantic information. However, due to variations of text and complexity of background, detecting text in scene images becomes a critical and challenging task. In this paper, we present a novel method to detect text from scene images. Firstly, we decompose scene images into background and text components using morphological component analysis(MCA), which will reduce the adverse effects of complex backgrounds on the detection results.In order to improve the performance of image decomposition,two discriminative dictionaries of background and text are learned from the training samples. Moreover, Laplacian sparse regularization is introduced into our proposed dictionary learning method which improves discrimination of dictionary. Based on the text dictionary and the sparse-representation coefficients of text, we can construct the text component. After that, the text in the query image can be detected by applying certain heuristic rules. The results of experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Kernel Generalization of Multi-Rate Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis for Fault Detection in Nonlinear Process

In practical process industries,a variety of online and offline sensors and measuring instruments have been used for process control and monitoring purposes,which indicates that the measurements coming from different sources are collected at different sampling rates.To build a complete process monitoring strategy,all these multi-rate measurements should be considered for data-based modeling and monitoring.In this paper,a novel kernel multi-rate probabilistic principal component analysis(K-MPPCA)model is proposed to extract the nonlinear correlations among different sampling rates.In the proposed model,the model parameters are calibrated using the kernel trick and the expectation-maximum(EM)algorithm.Also,the corresponding fault detection methods based on the nonlinear features are developed.Finally,a simulated nonlinear case and an actual pre-decarburization unit in the ammonia synthesis process are tested to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Anomaly Detection System Based on Principal Component Analysis and Support Vector Machine

This article presents an anomaly detection system based on principal component analysis （PCA） and support vector machine （SVM）. The system first creates a profile defining a normal behavior by frequency-based scheme, and then compares the similarity of a current behavior with the created profile to decide whether the input instance is norreal or anomaly. In order to avoid overfitting and reduce the computational burden, normal behavior principal features are extracted by the PCA method. SVM is used to distinguish normal or anomaly for user behavior after training procedure has been completed by learning. In the experiments for performance evaluation the system achieved a correct detection rate equal to 92.2% and a false detection rate equal to 2.8%.

Effect of Two Kinds of Similarity Factors on Principal Component Analysis Fault Detection in Air Conditioning Systems

Screening similar historical fault-free candidate data would greatly affect the effectiveness of fault detection results based on principal component analysis(PCA).In order to find out the candidate data,this study compares unweighted and weighted similarity factors(SFs),which measure the similarity of the principal component subspace corresponding to the first k main components of two datasets.The fault detection employs the principal component subspace corresponding to the current measured data and the historical fault-free data.From the historical fault-free database,the load parameters are employed to locate the candidate data similar to the current operating data.Fault detection method for air conditioning systems is based on principal component.The results show that the weighted principal component SF can improve the effects of the fault-free detection and the fault detection.Compared with the unweighted SF,the average fault-free detection rate of the weighted SF is 17.33%higher than that of the unweighted,and the average fault detection rate is 7.51%higher than unweighted.

Influence of Three Sizes of Sliding Windows on Principle Component Analysis Fault Detection of Air Conditioning Systems

Principal component analysis(PCA)has been already employed for fault detection of air conditioning systems.The sliding window,which is composed of some parameters satisfying with thermal load balance,can select the target historical fault-free reference data as the template which is similar to the current snapshot data.The size of sliding window is usually given according to empirical values,while the influence of different sizes of sliding windows on fault detection of an air conditioning system is not further studied.The air conditioning system is a dynamic response process,and the operating parameters change with the change of the load,while the response of the controller is delayed.In a variable air volume(VAV)air conditioning system controlled by the total air volume method,in order to ensure sufficient response time,30 data points are selected first,and then their multiples are selected.Three different sizes of sliding windows with 30,60 and 90 data points are applied to compare the fault detection effect in this paper.The results show that if the size of the sliding window is 60 data points,the average fault-free detection ratio is 80.17%in fault-free testing days,and the average fault detection ratio is 88.47%in faulty testing days.

Fault detection of excavator’s hydraulic system based on dynamic principal component analysis

In order to improve reliability of the excavator's hydraulic system, a fault detection approach based on dynamic principal component analysis(PCA) was proposed. Dynamic PCA is an extension of PCA, which can effectively extract the dynamic relations among process variables. With this approach, normal samples were used as training data to develop a dynamic PCA model in the first step. Secondly, the dynamic PCA model decomposed the testing data into projections to the principal component subspace(PCS) and residual subspace(RS). Thirdly, T2 statistic and Q statistic performed as indexes of fault detection in PCS and RS, respectively. Several simulated faults were introduced to validate the approach. The results show that the dynamic PCA model developed is able to detect overall faults by using T2 statistic and Q statistic. By simulation analysis, the proposed approach achieves an accuracy of 95% for 20 test sample sets, which shows that the fault detection approach can be effectively applied to the excavator's hydraulic system.

Foreground Detection Based on Nonlinear Independent Component Analysis

Motionless foreground objects are key targets in applications of home care monitoring and abandoned object detection,and pose a great challenge to foreground detection.Most algorithms incorporate the motionless foreground objects into their background models because they have to adapt to environmental changes.To overcome this challenge,a foreground detection method based on nonlinear independent component analysis(ICA) was proposed.Considering that each video frame was actually a nonlinear mixture of the background image and the foreground image,the nonlinear ICA was employed to accurately separate the independent components from each frame.Then,the entropy of grayscale image was calculated to classify which resulting independent component was the foreground image.The proposed nonlinear ICA model was trained offline and this model was not updated online,so the method can cope with the motionless foreground objects.Experimental results demonstrate that,the method achieves remarkable results and outperforms several advanced methods in dealing with the motionless foreground objects.

Loss-of-Main Monitoring and Detection for Distributed Generations Using Dynamic Principal Component Analysis

In this paper, our previous work on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) based fault detection method is extended to the dynamic monitoring and detection of loss-of-main in power systems using wide-area synchrophasor measurements. In the previous work, a static PCA model was built and verified to be capable of detecting and extracting system faulty events;however the false alarm rate is high. To address this problem, this paper uses a well-known ‘time lag shift’ method to include dynamic behavior of the PCA model based on the synchronized measurements from Phasor Measurement Units (PMU), which is named as the Dynamic Principal Component Analysis (DPCA). Compared with the static PCA approach as well as the traditional passive mechanisms of loss-of-main detection, the proposed DPCA procedure describes how the synchrophasors are linearly auto- and cross-correlated, based on conducting the singular value decomposition on the augmented time lagged synchrophasor matrix. Similar to the static PCA method, two statistics, namely T2 and Q with confidence limits are calculated to form intuitive charts for engineers or operators to monitor the loss-of-main situation in real time. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is evaluated on the loss-of-main monitoring of a real system, where the historic data are recorded from PMUs installed in several locations in the UK/Ireland power system.

Android Malware Detection Using Local Binary Pattern and Principal Component Analysis

Nowadays,analysis methods based on big data have been widely used in malicious software detection.Since Android has become the dominator of smartphone operating system market,the number of Android malicious applications are increasing rapidly as well,which attracts attention of malware attackers and researchers alike.Due to the endless evolution of the malware,it is critical to apply the analysis methods based on machine learning to detect malwares and stop them from leakaging our privacy information.In this paper,we propose a novel Android malware detection method based on binary texture feature recognition by Local Binary Pattern and Principal Component Analysis,which can visualize malware and detect malware accurately.Also,our method analyzes malware binary directly without any decompiler,sandbox or virtual machines,which avoid time and resource consumption caused by decompiler or monitor in this process.Experimentation on 5127 benigns and 5560 malwares shows that we obtain a detection accuracy of 90%.

Robust Principal Component Test in Gross Error Detection and Identification

Principle component analysis (PCA) based chi-square test is more sensitive to subtle gross errors and has greater power to correctly detect gross errors than classical chi-square test. However, classical principal component test (PCT) is non-robust and can be very sensitive to one or more outliers. In this paper, a Huber function liked robust weight factor was added in the collective chi-square test to eliminate the influence of gross errors on the PCT. Meanwhile, robust chi-square test was applied to modified simultaneous estimation of gross error (MSEGE) strategy to detect and identify multiple gross errors. Simulation results show that the proposed robust test can reduce the possibility of type II errors effectively. Adding robust chi-square test into MSEGE does not obviously improve the power of multiple gross error identification, the proposed approach considers the influence of outliers on hypothesis statistic test and is more reasonable.

Aviation multi-station collaborative detecting based on time-frequency correlation of data-link

As an important application research topic of the intelligent aviation multi-station, collaborative detecting must overcome the problem of scouting measurement with status of 'fragmentation', and the NP-hardness problem of matching association between target and measurement in the process of scouting to data-link, which has complicated technical architecture of network construction. In this paper, taking advantage of cooperation mechanism on signal level in the aviation multi-station sympathetic network, a method of obtaining target time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurement using multi-station collaborative detecting based on time-frequency association is proposed. The method can not only achieve matching between target and its measurement, but also obtain TDOA measurement by further evolutionary transaction through refreshing sequential pulse time of arrival (TOA) measurement matrix for matching and correlating. Simulation results show that the accuracy of TDOA measurement has significant superiority over TOA, and detection probability of false TDOA measurement introduced by noise and fake measurement can be reduced effectively.

The problems in equipment fault detection include data dimension explosion,computational complexity,low detection accuracy,etc.To solve these problems,a device anomaly detection algorithm based on enhanced long short-term memory(LSTM)is proposed.The algorithm first reduces the dimensionality of the device sensor data by principal component analysis(PCA),extracts the strongly correlated variable data among the multidimensional sensor data with the lowest possible information loss,and then uses the enhanced stacked LSTM to predict the extracted temporal data,thus improving the accuracy of anomaly detection.To improve the efficiency of the anomaly detection,a genetic algorithm(GA)is used to adjust the magnitude of the enhancements made by the LSTM model.The validation of the actual data from the pumps shows that the algorithm has significantly improved the recall rate and the detection speed of device anomaly detection,with the recall rate of 97.07%,which indicates that the algorithm is effective and efficient for device anomaly detection in the actual production environment.

Fisherfaces algorithm is a popular method for face recognition.However,there exist some unstable com- ponents that degrade recognition performance.In this paper,we propose a method based on detecting reliable com- ponents to overcome the problem and introduce it to 3D face recognition.The reliable components are detected within the binary feature vector,which is generated from the Fisherfaces feature vector based on statistical properties,and is used for 3D face recognition as the final feature vector.Experimental results show that the reliable components fea- ture vector is much more effective than the Fisherfaces feature vector for face recognition.

Wood defect detection method with PCA feature fusion and compressed sensing

We used principa/component analysis （PCA） and compressed sensing to detect wood defects from wood plate images. PCA makes it possible to reduce data redundancy and feature dimensions and compressed sensing, used as a elas- sifter, improves identification accuracy. We extracted 25 features, including geometry and regional features, gray-scale texture features, and invariant moment features, from wood board images and then integrated them using PCA, and se- lected eight principal components to express defects. After the fusion process, we used the features to construct a data dic- tionary, and realized the classification of defects by computing the optimal solution of the data dictionary in l1 norm using the least square method. We tested 50 Xylosma samples of live knots, dead knots, and cracks. The average detection time with PCA feature fusion and without were 0.2015 and 0.7125 ms, respectively. The original detection accuracy by SOM neural network was 87 %, but after compressed sensing, it was 92 %.

AED-Net:An Abnormal Event Detection Network

It has long been a challenging task to detect an anomaly in a crowded scene.In this paper,a selfsupervised framework called the abnormal event detection network(AED-Net),which is composed of a principal component analysis network(PCAnet)and kernel principal component analysis(kPCA),is proposed to address this problem.Using surveillance video sequences of different scenes as raw data,the PCAnet is trained to extract high-level semantics of the crowd’s situation.Next,kPCA,a one-class classifier,is trained to identify anomalies within the scene.In contrast to some prevailing deep learning methods,this framework is completely self-supervised because it utilizes only video sequences of a normal situation.Experiments in global and local abnormal event detection are carried out on Monitoring Human Activity dataset from University of Minnesota(UMN dataset)and Anomaly Detection dataset from University of California,San Diego(UCSD dataset),and competitive results that yield a better equal error rate(EER)and area under curve(AUC)than other state-of-the-art methods are observed.Furthermore,by adding a local response normalization(LRN)layer,we propose an improvement to the original AED-Net.The results demonstrate that this proposed version performs better by promoting the framework’s generalization capacity.
