This study analyses the water quality of five shallow wells (WW1-WW5) in Half-London Ward, Tunduma Town, Tanzania, using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to identify the primary factors influencing groundwater contamination. Monthly samples were collected over 12 months and analysed for physical, chemical, and biological parameters. The PCA revealed between four and six principal components (PCs) for each well, explaining between 84.61% and 92.55% of the total variance in water quality data. In WW1, five PCs captured 87.53% of the variability, with PC1 (33.05%) dominated by pH, EC, TDS, and microbial contamination, suggesting significant influences from surface runoff and pit latrines. In WW2, six PCs explained 92.55% of the variance, with PC1 (36.17%) highlighting the effects of salinity, TDS, and agricultural runoff. WW3 had four PCs explaining 84.61% of the variance, with PC1 (39.63%) showing high contributions from pH, hardness, and salinity, indicating geological influences and contamination from human activities. Similarly, in WW4, six PCs explained 90.83% of the variance, where PC1 (43.53%) revealed contamination from pit latrines and fertilizers. WW5 also had six PCs, accounting for 92.51% of the variance, with PC1 (42.73%) indicating significant contamination from agricultural runoff and pit latrines. The study concludes that groundwater quality in Half-London Ward is primarily affected by a combination of surface runoff, pit latrine contamination, agricultural inputs, and geological factors. The presence of microbial contaminants and elevated nitrate and phosphate levels underscores the need for improved sanitation and sustainable agricultural practices. Recommendations include strengthening sanitation infrastructure, promoting responsible farming techniques, and implementing regular groundwater monitoring to safeguard water resources and public health in the region.展开更多

Robust Principal Component Analysis (RPCA) addresses these limitations by decomposing data into a low-rank matrix capturing the underlying structure and a sparse matrix identifying outliers, enhancing robustness against noise and outliers. This paper introduces a novel RPCA variant, Robust PCA Integrating Sparse and Low-rank Priors (RPCA-SL). Each prior targets a specific aspect of the data’s underlying structure and their combination allows for a more nuanced and accurate separation of the main data components from outliers and noise. Then RPCA-SL is solved by employing a proximal gradient algorithm for improved anomaly detection and data decomposition. Experimental results on simulation and real data demonstrate significant advancements.展开更多

AISI 316L stainless steel sheets were used to develop double wall angle pyramid with aid of tungsten carbide tool. GRA coupled with PCA was used to plan the experiment conditions. Control factors such as Tool Diameter(TD), Step Depth(SD), Bottom Wall Angle(BWA), Feed Rate(FR) and Spindle Speed(SS) on Top Wall Angle(TWA) and Top Wall Angle Surface Roughness(TWASR) have been studied. Wall angle increases with increasing tool diameter due to large contact area between tool and workpiece. As the step depth, feed rate and spindle speed increase,TWASR decreases with increasing tool diameter. As the step depth increasing, the hydrostatic stress is raised causing severe cracks in the deformed surface. Hence it was concluded that the proposed hybrid method was suitable for optimizing the factors and response.展开更多

The dataset was reduced using PCA, which identified height, reach, and age as key features contributing to variance. However, while PCA effectively reduced dimensionality, it faced challenges in clearly distinguishing between the two ethnic groups, a limitation noted in previous research. In contrast, the decision tree model performed significantly better, establishing clear decision boundaries and achieving high classification accuracy. The decision tree consistently selected Height and Reach as the most important classifiers, a finding supported by existing studies on ethnic differences in Northeast India. The results highlight the strengths of combining PCA for dimensionality reduction with decision tree models for classification tasks. While PCA alone was insufficient for optimal class separation, its integration with decision trees improved both the model’s accuracy and interpretability. Future research could explore other machine learning models to enhance classification and examine a broader set of anthropometric features for more comprehensive ethnic group classification.展开更多

This study analyses the water quality of five shallow wells (WW1-WW5) in Half-London Ward, Tunduma Town, Tanzania, using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to identify the primary factors influencing groundwater contamination. Monthly samples were collected over 12 months and analysed for physical, chemical, and biological parameters. The PCA revealed between four and six principal components (PCs) for each well, explaining between 84.61% and 92.55% of the total variance in water quality data. In WW1, five PCs captured 87.53% of the variability, with PC1 (33.05%) dominated by pH, EC, TDS, and microbial contamination, suggesting significant influences from surface runoff and pit latrines. In WW2, six PCs explained 92.55% of the variance, with PC1 (36.17%) highlighting the effects of salinity, TDS, and agricultural runoff. WW3 had four PCs explaining 84.61% of the variance, with PC1 (39.63%) showing high contributions from pH, hardness, and salinity, indicating geological influences and contamination from human activities. Similarly, in WW4, six PCs explained 90.83% of the variance, where PC1 (43.53%) revealed contamination from pit latrines and fertilizers. WW5 also had six PCs, accounting for 92.51% of the variance, with PC1 (42.73%) indicating significant contamination from agricultural runoff and pit latrines. The study concludes that groundwater quality in Half-London Ward is primarily affected by a combination of surface runoff, pit latrine contamination, agricultural inputs, and geological factors. The presence of microbial contaminants and elevated nitrate and phosphate levels underscores the need for improved sanitation and sustainable agricultural practices. Recommendations include strengthening sanitation infrastructure, promoting responsible farming techniques, and implementing regular groundwater monitoring to safeguard water resources and public health in the region.

文摘We study the influence of disorder on the Moore–Read state by principal component analysis(PCA),which is one of the ground state candidates for the 5/2 fractional Hall state.By using PCA,the topological features of the ground state wave functions with different disorder strengths can be distilled.As the disorder strength increases,the Moore–Read state will be destroyed.We explore the phase transition by analyzing the overlaps between the random sample wave functions and the topologically distilled state.The cross-point between the amplitudes of the principal component and its counterpart is the phase transition point.Additionally,the origin of the second component comes from the excited states,which is different from the Laughlin state.

文摘Ore production is usually affected by multiple influencing inputs at open-pit mines.Nevertheless,the complex nonlinear relationships between these inputs and ore production remain unclear.This becomes even more challenging when training data(e.g.truck haulage information and weather conditions)are massive.In machine learning(ML)algorithms,deep neural network(DNN)is a superior method for processing nonlinear and massive data by adjusting the amount of neurons and hidden layers.This study adopted DNN to forecast ore production using truck haulage information and weather conditions at open-pit mines as training data.Before the prediction models were built,principal component analysis(PCA)was employed to reduce the data dimensionality and eliminate the multicollinearity among highly correlated input variables.To verify the superiority of DNN,three ANNs containing only one hidden layer and six traditional ML models were established as benchmark models.The DNN model with multiple hidden layers performed better than the ANN models with a single hidden layer.The DNN model outperformed the extensively applied benchmark models in predicting ore production.This can provide engineers and researchers with an accurate method to forecast ore production,which helps make sound budgetary decisions and mine planning at open-pit mines.

文摘The safety and integrity requirements of aerospace composite structures necessitate real-time health monitoring throughout their service life.To this end,distributed optical fiber sensors utilizing back Rayleigh scattering have been extensively deployed in structural health monitoring due to their advantages,such as lightweight and ease of embedding.However,identifying the precise location of damage from the optical fiber signals remains a critical challenge.In this paper,a novel approach which namely Modified Sliding Window Principal Component Analysis(MSWPCA)was proposed to facilitate automatic damage identification and localization via distributed optical fiber sensors.The proposed method is able to extract signal characteristics interfered by measurement noise to improve the accuracy of damage detection.Specifically,we applied the MSWPCA method to monitor and analyze the debonding propagation process in honeycomb sandwich panel structures.Our findings demonstrate that the training model exhibits high precision in detecting the location and size of honeycomb debonding,thereby facilitating reliable and efficient online assessment of the structural health state.

A novel soft-sensor model with principal component analysis （PCA）, radial basis function （RBF） networks, and multi-scale analysis （MSA） is proposed to infer the MI of manufactured products from real process variables, where PCA is carried out to select the most relevant process features and to eliminate the correlations of the input variables, MSA is introduced to a^quire much more information and to reduce the uncertainty of the system, and RBF networks are used to characterize the nonlinearity of the process. The research results show that the proposed method provides promising prediction reliability and accuracy, and supposed to have extensive application prospects in propylene polymerization processes.
文摘Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a widely used technique for data analysis and dimensionality reduction, but its sensitivity to feature scale and outliers limits its applicability. Robust Principal Component Analysis (RPCA) addresses these limitations by decomposing data into a low-rank matrix capturing the underlying structure and a sparse matrix identifying outliers, enhancing robustness against noise and outliers. This paper introduces a novel RPCA variant, Robust PCA Integrating Sparse and Low-rank Priors (RPCA-SL). Each prior targets a specific aspect of the data’s underlying structure and their combination allows for a more nuanced and accurate separation of the main data components from outliers and noise. Then RPCA-SL is solved by employing a proximal gradient algorithm for improved anomaly detection and data decomposition. Experimental results on simulation and real data demonstrate significant advancements.
文摘The Internet of things(IoT)is a wireless network designed to perform specific tasks and plays a crucial role in various fields such as environmental monitoring,surveillance,and healthcare.To address the limitations imposed by inadequate resources,energy,and network scalability,this type of network relies heavily on data aggregation and clustering algorithms.Although various conventional studies have aimed to enhance the lifespan of a network through robust systems,they do not always provide optimal efficiency for real-time applications.This paper presents an approach based on state-of-the-art machine-learning methods.In this study,we employed a novel approach that combines an extended version of principal component analysis(PCA)and a reinforcement learning algorithm to achieve efficient clustering and data reduction.The primary objectives of this study are to enhance the service life of a network,reduce energy usage,and improve data aggregation efficiency.We evaluated the proposed methodology using data collected from sensors deployed in agricultural fields for crop monitoring.Our proposed approach(PQL)was compared to previous studies that utilized adaptive Q-learning(AQL)and regional energy-aware clustering(REAC).Our study outperformed in terms of both network longevity and energy consumption and established a fault-tolerant network.
文摘We investigated the parametric optimization on incremental sheet forming of stainless steel using Grey Relational Analysis(GRA) coupled with Principal Component Analysis(PCA). AISI 316L stainless steel sheets were used to develop double wall angle pyramid with aid of tungsten carbide tool. GRA coupled with PCA was used to plan the experiment conditions. Control factors such as Tool Diameter(TD), Step Depth(SD), Bottom Wall Angle(BWA), Feed Rate(FR) and Spindle Speed(SS) on Top Wall Angle(TWA) and Top Wall Angle Surface Roughness(TWASR) have been studied. Wall angle increases with increasing tool diameter due to large contact area between tool and workpiece. As the step depth, feed rate and spindle speed increase,TWASR decreases with increasing tool diameter. As the step depth increasing, the hydrostatic stress is raised causing severe cracks in the deformed surface. Hence it was concluded that the proposed hybrid method was suitable for optimizing the factors and response.

文摘A model combining kernel principal component analysis(KPCA)and Xtreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)was introduced for forecasting the final oxygen content of electroslag remelting.KPCA was employed to reduce the dimensionality of the factors influencing the endpoint oxygen content and to eliminate any existing correlations among these factors.The resulting principal components were then utilized as input variables for the XGBoost prediction model.The KPCA-XGBoost model was trained and proven using data obtained from companies.The model structure was adapted,and hyperparameters were optimized using grid search cross-validation.The model performance of the KPCA-XGBoost model is compared with five machine learning models,including the support vector regression model.The findings demonstrated that the KPCA-XGBoost model exhibited the highest level of prediction accuracy,indicating that the incorporation of KPCA significantly enhanced the regression prediction performance of the model.The accuracy of the KPCA-XGBoost model was 82.4%,97.1%,and 100%at errors of±1.5×10^(-6),±2.0×10^(-6),and±3×10^(-6)for oxygen content,respectively.

文摘Due to the complexity of underground engineering geology,the tunnel boring machine(TBM)usually shows poor adaptability to the surrounding rock mass,leading to machine jamming and geological hazards.For the TBM project of Lanzhou Water Source Construction,this study proposed a neural network called PCA-GRU,which combines principal component analysis(PCA)with gated recurrent unit(GRU)to improve the accuracy of predicting rock mass classification in TBM tunneling.The input variables from the PCA dimension reduction of nine parameters in the sample data set were utilized for establishing the PCA-GRU model.Subsequently,in order to speed up the response time of surrounding rock mass classification predictions,the PCA-GRU model was optimized.Finally,the prediction results obtained by the PCA-GRU model were compared with those of four other models and further examined using random sampling analysis.As indicated by the results,the PCA-GRU model can predict the rock mass classification in TBM tunneling rapidly,requiring about 20 s to run.It performs better than the previous four models in predicting the rock mass classification,with accuracy A,macro precision MP,and macro recall MR being 0.9667,0.963,and 0.9763,respectively.In Class II,III,and IV rock mass prediction,the PCA-GRU model demonstrates better precision P and recall R owing to the dimension reduction technique.The random sampling analysis indicates that the PCA-GRU model shows stronger generalization,making it more appropriate in situations where the distribution of various rock mass classes and lithologies change in percentage.
文摘This study investigates the use of a decision tree classification model, combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA), to distinguish between Assam and Bhutan ethnic groups based on specific anthropometric features, including age, height, tail length, hair length, bang length, reach, and earlobe type. The dataset was reduced using PCA, which identified height, reach, and age as key features contributing to variance. However, while PCA effectively reduced dimensionality, it faced challenges in clearly distinguishing between the two ethnic groups, a limitation noted in previous research. In contrast, the decision tree model performed significantly better, establishing clear decision boundaries and achieving high classification accuracy. The decision tree consistently selected Height and Reach as the most important classifiers, a finding supported by existing studies on ethnic differences in Northeast India. The results highlight the strengths of combining PCA for dimensionality reduction with decision tree models for classification tasks. While PCA alone was insufficient for optimal class separation, its integration with decision trees improved both the model’s accuracy and interpretability. Future research could explore other machine learning models to enhance classification and examine a broader set of anthropometric features for more comprehensive ethnic group classification.
文摘This paper investigates the design essence of Chinese classical private gardens,integrating their design elements and fundamental principles.It systematically analyzes the unique characteristics and differences among classical private gardens in the Northern,Jiangnan,and Lingnan regions.The study examines nine classical private gardens from Northern China,Jiangnan,and Lingnan by utilizing the advanced tool of principal component cluster analysis.Based on literature analysis and field research,273 variables were selected for principal component analysis,from which four components with higher contribution rates were chosen for further study.Subsequently,we employed clustering analysis techniques to compare the differences among the three types of gardens.The results reveal that the first principal component effectively highlights the differences between Jiangnan and Lingnan private gardens.The second principal component serves as the key to defining the types of Northern private gardens and distinguishing them from the other two types,and the third principal component indicates that Lingnan private gardens can be categorized into two distinct types as well.

文摘In this research,the performance of regular rapeseed oil(RSO)and modified low-linolenic rapeseed oil(LLRO)during frying was assessed using a frying procedure that commonly found in fast-food restaurants.Key physicochemical attributes of these oils were investigated.RSO and LLRO differed for initial linolenic acid(12.21%vs.2.59%),linoleic acid(19.15%vs.24.73%).After 6 successive days frying period of French fries,the ratio of linoleic acid to palmitic acid dropped by 54.49%in RSO,higher than that in LLRO(51.54%).The increment in total oxidation value for LLRO(40.46 unit)was observed to be significantly lower than those of RSO(42.58 unit).The changes in carbonyl group value and iodine value throughout the frying trial were also lower in LLRO compared to RSO.The formation rate in total polar compounds for LLRO was 1.08%per frying day,lower than that of RSO(1.31%).In addition,the formation in color component and degradation in tocopherols were proportional to the frying time for two frying oils.Besides,a longer induction period was also observed in LLRO(8.87 h)compared to RSO(7.68 h)after frying period.Overall,LLRO exhibited the better frying stability,which was confirmed by principal component analysis(PCA).
文摘The basement aquifers in Burkina Faso are increasingly exposed to groundwater pollution,largely due to socio-economic activities and climatic fluctuations,particularly the reduction in rainfall.This pollution makes the management and understanding of these aquifers particularly complex.To elucidate the processes controlling this contamination,a methodological approach combining principal component analysis(PCA)and multivariate statistical techniques was adopted.The study analyzed sixteen physicochemical parameters from 58 water samples.The primary objective of this research is to assess groundwater quality and deepen the understanding of the key factors influencing the spatial variation of their chemical composition.The results obtained will contribute to better planning of preservation and sustainable management measures for water resources in Burkina Faso.The results show that three principal components explain 72%of the variance,identifying anthropogenic inputs,with two components affected by mineralization and one by pollution.The study reveals that the groundwater is aggressive and highly corrosive,with calcite saturation.Water-rock interactions appear to be the main mechanisms controlling the hydrochemistry of groundwater,with increasing concentrations of cations and anions as the water travels through percolation pathways.PCA also revealed that the residence time of the water and leaching due to human activities significantly influence water quality,primarily through mineralization processes.These results suggest that rock weathering,coupled with reduced rainfall,constitutes a major vulnerability for aquifer recharge.
