Book On line Learning and Wavelet based Feature Extraction Methodology for Process Monitoring Using High dimensional Functional Data

Download or read book On line Learning and Wavelet based Feature Extraction Methodology for Process Monitoring Using High dimensional Functional Data written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent advances in information technology, such as the various automatic data acquisition systems and sensor systems, have created tremendous opportunities for collecting valuable process data. The timely processing of such data for meaningful information remains a challenge. In this research, several data mining methodology that will aid information streaming of high-dimensional functional data are developed. For on-line implementations, two weighting functions for updating support vector regression parameters were developed. The functions use parameters that can be easily set a priori with the slightest knowledge of the data involved and have provision for lower and upper bounds for the parameters. The functions are applicable to time series predictions, on-line predictions, and batch predictions. In order to apply these functions for on-line predictions, a new on-line support vector regression algorithm that uses adaptive weighting parameters was presented. The new algorithm uses varying rather than fixed regularization constant and accuracy parameter. The developed algorithm is more robust to the volume of data available for on-line training as well as to the relative position of the available data in the training sequence. The algorithm improves prediction accuracy by reducing uncertainty in using fixed values for the regression parameters. It also improves prediction accuracy by reducing uncertainty in using regression values based on some experts' knowledge rather than on the characteristics of the incoming training data. The developed functions and algorithm were applied to feedwater flow rate data and two benchmark time series data. The results show that using adaptive regression parameters performs better than using fixed regression parameters. In order to reduce the dimension of data with several hundreds or thousands of predictors and enhance prediction accuracy, a wavelet-based feature extraction procedure called step-down thresholding procedure for identifying and extracting significant features for a single curve was developed. The procedure involves transforming the original spectral into wavelet coefficients. It is based on multiple hypothesis testing approach and it controls family-wise error rate in order to guide against selecting insignificant features without any concern about the amount of noise that may be present in the data. Therefore, the procedure is applicable for data-reduction and/or data-denoising. The procedure was compared to six other data-reduction and data-denoising methods in the literature. The developed procedure is found to consistently perform better than most of the popular methods and performs at the same level with the other methods. Many real-world data with high-dimensional explanatory variables also sometimes have multiple response variables; therefore, the selection of the fewest explanatory variables that show high sensitivity to predicting the response variable(s) and low sensitivity to the noise in the data is important for better performance and reduced computational burden. In order to select the fewest explanatory variables that can predict each of the response variables better, a two-stage wavelet-based feature extraction procedure is proposed. The first stage uses step-down procedure to extract significant features for each of the curves. Then, representative features are selected out of the extracted features for all curves using voting selection strategy. Other selection strategies such as union and intersection were also described and implemented. The essence of the first stage is to reduce the dimension of the data without any consideration for whether or not they can predict the response variables accurately. The second stage uses Bayesian decision theory approach to select some of the extracted wavelet coefficients that can predict each of the response variables accurately. The two stage procedure was implemented using near-infrared spectroscopy data and shaft misalignment data. The results show that the second stage further reduces the dimension and the prediction results are encouraging.

Book Efficient Algorithms for Discrete Wavelet Transform

Download or read book Efficient Algorithms for Discrete Wavelet Transform written by K K Shukla and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-26 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to its inherent time-scale locality characteristics, the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) has received considerable attention in signal/image processing. Wavelet transforms have excellent energy compaction characteristics and can provide perfect reconstruction. The shifting (translation) and scaling (dilation) are unique to wavelets. Orthogonality of wavelets with respect to dilations leads to multigrid representation. As the computation of DWT involves filtering, an efficient filtering process is essential in DWT hardware implementation. In the multistage DWT, coefficients are calculated recursively, and in addition to the wavelet decomposition stage, extra space is required to store the intermediate coefficients. Hence, the overall performance depends significantly on the precision of the intermediate DWT coefficients. This work presents new implementation techniques of DWT, that are efficient in terms of computation, storage, and with better signal-to-noise ratio in the reconstructed signal.

Book A Wavelet based Approach to Primitive Feature Extraction  Region based Segmentation  and Identification for Image Information Mining

Download or read book A Wavelet based Approach to Primitive Feature Extraction Region based Segmentation and Identification for Image Information Mining written by Vijay Pravin Shah and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Content- and semantic-based interactive mining systems describe remote sensing images by means of relevant features. Region-based retrieval systems have been proposed to capture the local properties of an image. Existing systems use computationally extensive methods to extract primitive features based on color, texture (spatial gray level dependency - SGLD matrices), and shape from the segmented homogenous region. The use of wavelet transform techniques has recently gained momentum in multimedia image archives to expedite the retrieval process. However, the current semantic-enabled framework for the geospatial data uses computationally extensive methods for feature extraction and image segmentation. Hence, this dissertation presents the use of a wavelet-based feature extraction in a semantics-enabled framework to expedite the knowledge discovery in geospatial data archives. Geospatial data has different characteristics than multimedia images and poses more challenges. The experimental assumptions, such as the selection of the wavelet decomposition level and mother wavelet used for multimedia data archives, might not prove to be efficient for the retrieval of geospatial data. Discrete wavelet transforms (DWT) introduce aliasing effects due to subband decimation at a certain decomposition level. This dissertation addresses the issue of selecting a suitable wavelet decomposition level, and a systematic selection process is developed for image segmentation. To validate the applicability of this method, a synthetic image is generated to assess the performance qualitatively and quantitatively. In addition, results for a Landsat7 ETM+ imagery archive are illustrated, and the F-measure is used to assess the feasibility of this method for retrieval of different classes. This dissertation also introduces a new feature set obtained by coalescing wavelet and independent component analysis for image information mining. Feature-level fusion is performed to include the missing high detail information from the panchromatic image. Results show that the presented feature set is computationally less expensive and more efficient in capturing the spectral and spatial texture information when compared to traditional approaches. After extensive experimentation with different types of mother wavelets, it can be concluded that reverse Biorthogonal wavelets of shorter length and the simple Haar filter provided better results for the image information mining from the database used in this study.
