In this paper, a new multi-class fault diagnosis algorithm based on H-SVM is proposed and applied to aero-engine. Before SVM training, the training data are first clustered according to their class-center Euclid distances in some feature spaces. The samples which have close distances are divided into the same sub-classes for training, and this makes the H-SVM have reasonable hierarchical construction and good generalization performance. Instead of the common C-SVM, the v-SVM is selected as the binary classifier, in which the parameter v varies only from 0 to 1 and can be determined more easily. The simulation results show that the designed H-SVMs can fast diagnose the multi-class single faults and combination faults for the gas path components of an aero-engine. The fault classifiers have good diagnosis accuracy and can keep robust even when the measurement inputs are disturbed by noises.展开更多

Meanwhile, a new multi-class classification method is proposed. Originated from support vector data description, AHSVM adopts hyper-sphere to solve classification problem. AHSVM can obey two principles： the margin maximization and inner-class dispersion minimization. Moreover, the hyper-sphere of AHSVM is adjustable, which makes the final classification hyper-sphere optimal for training dataset. On the other hand, AHSVM is combined with binary tree to solve multi-class classification for steel surface defects. A scheme of samples pruning in mapped feature space is provided, which can reduce the number of training samples under the premise of classification accuracy, resulting in the improvements of classification speed. Finally, some testing experiments are done for eight types of strip steel surface defects. Experimental results show that multi-class AHSVM classifier exhibits satisfactory results in classification accuracy and efficiency.展开更多

The open multi-class queuing network(QN) models are based on the assumption that no service center is saturated as a result of the combined loads of all the classes. Several formulas are used to calculate performance measures, including throughput, residence time, queue length, response time and the average number of requests. The solution technique of closed multi-class QN models is an approximate mean value analysis algorithm (MVA) based on three key equations, because the exact algorithm needs huge time and space requirement. As mixed multi-class QN models, include some open and some closed classes, the open classes should be eliminated to create a closed multi-class QN so that the closed model algorithm can be applied. Some corresponding examples are given to show how to apply the algorithms mentioned in this article. These examples indicate that multi-class QN is a reasonably accurate model of e-business and can be solved efficiently.展开更多

This has led to the multi-class switch architecture to cater for the needs for different QoS requirements. The introduction of threshold in multi-class switch to solve the starvation problems in loss sensitive class has increased the mean delay for delay sensitive class. In this research, a new scheduling architecture is introduced to improve mean delay in delay sensitive class when the threshold is active. The proposed architecture has been simulated under uniform and non-uniform traffic to show performance of the switch in terms of mean delay. The results show that the proposed architecture has achieved better performance as compared to Weighted Fair Queueing (WFQ) and Priority Queue (PQ).展开更多

In this study, the statistical characteristics of the disturbance signal of wavelet transform coefficients and wavelet transform energy distribution constitute feature vectors. These vectors are then trained and tested using SVM multi-class algorithms. Experimental results demonstrate that the SVM multi-class algorithms, which use the Gaussian radial basis function, exponential radial basis function, and hyperbolic tangent function as basis functions, are suitable methods for power quality disturbance classification.
文摘The acoustic vibration signal of tank is disassembled into the sum of intrinsic mode function （IMF） by multi-resolution empirical mode decomposition （EMD） method. The instantaneous frequency is obtained, and feature transformation matrix is figured out by class scatter matrix. Multi- dimensional scale energy vector is mapped into low-dimensional eigenvector, and classification extraction is realized. This method sufficiently separates of different sound target features. The test result indicates that it is effective.
文摘Due to e-business' s variety of customers with different navigational patterns and demands, multiclass queuing network is a natural performance model for it. The open multi-class queuing network(QN) models are based on the assumption that no service center is saturated as a result of the combined loads of all the classes. Several formulas are used to calculate performance measures, including throughput, residence time, queue length, response time and the average number of requests. The solution technique of closed multi-class QN models is an approximate mean value analysis algorithm (MVA) based on three key equations, because the exact algorithm needs huge time and space requirement. As mixed multi-class QN models, include some open and some closed classes, the open classes should be eliminated to create a closed multi-class QN so that the closed model algorithm can be applied. Some corresponding examples are given to show how to apply the algorithms mentioned in this article. These examples indicate that multi-class QN is a reasonably accurate model of e-business and can be solved efficiently.
文摘The requirement for guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) have become very essential since there are numerous network base application is available such as video conferencing, data streaming, data transfer and many more. This has led to the multi-class switch architecture to cater for the needs for different QoS requirements. The introduction of threshold in multi-class switch to solve the starvation problems in loss sensitive class has increased the mean delay for delay sensitive class. In this research, a new scheduling architecture is introduced to improve mean delay in delay sensitive class when the threshold is active. The proposed architecture has been simulated under uniform and non-uniform traffic to show performance of the switch in terms of mean delay. The results show that the proposed architecture has achieved better performance as compared to Weighted Fair Queueing (WFQ) and Priority Queue (PQ).
文摘A multi-class method is proposed based on Error Correcting Output Codes algorithm in order to get better performance of attack recognition in Wireless Sensor Networks. Aiming to enhance the accuracy of attack detection, the multi-class method is constructed with Hadamard matrix and two-class Support Vector Machines. In order to minimize the complexity of the algorithm, sparse coding method is applied in this paper. The comprehensive experimental results show that this modified multi-class method has better attack detection rate compared with other three coding algorithms, and its time efficiency is higher than Hadamard coding algorithm.

文摘The Internet of Medical Things(IoMT)will come to be of great importance in the mediation of medical disputes,as it is emerging as the core of intelligent medical treatment.First,IoMT can track the entire medical treatment process in order to provide detailed trace data in medical dispute resolution.Second,IoMT can infiltrate the ongoing treatment and provide timely intelligent decision support to medical staff.This information includes recommendation of similar historical cases,guidance for medical treatment,alerting of hired dispute profiteers etc.The multi-label classification of medical dispute documents(MDDs)plays an important role as a front-end process for intelligent decision support,especially in the recommendation of similar historical cases.However,MDDs usually appear as long texts containing a large amount of redundant information,and there is a serious distribution imbalance in the dataset,which directly leads to weaker classification performance.Accordingly,in this paper,a multi-label classification method based on key sentence extraction is proposed for MDDs.The method is divided into two parts.First,the attention-based hierarchical bi-directional long short-term memory(BiLSTM)model is used to extract key sentences from documents;second,random comprehensive sampling Bagging(RCS-Bagging),which is an ensemble multi-label classification model,is employed to classify MDDs based on key sentence sets.The use of this approach greatly improves the classification performance.Experiments show that the performance of the two models proposed in this paper is remarkably better than that of the baseline methods.
