The measuring system is based on two odometers placed on the axis of the wheels combined with a magnetic compass to determine the position and orientation. Determination of displacements is implemented by an accelerometer. Data coming from sensors are combined and used as inputs to unscented Kalman filter （UKF）. Two data fusion architectures： measurement fusion （MF） and state vector fusion （SVF） are proposed to merge the available measurements. Comparative studies of these two architectures show that the MF architecture provides states estimation with relatively less uncertainty compared to SVF. However, odometers measurements determine the position with relatively high uncertainty followed by the accelerometer measurements. Therefore, fusion in the navigation system is needed. The obtained simulation results show the effectiveness of proposed architectures.展开更多

Radars only can acquire angle information without range information when encountering the blanket jamming. Netted radars could get position information of the blanket jamming by make use of radars' relative position and the angle information, when there is one blanket jamming. In the presence of error, the localization method and the accuracy analysis of one blanket jamming are given. However, if there are more than one blanket jamming, and the two blanket jamming and two radars are coplanar, the localization of jamming could be error due to localization ambiguity. To solve this confusion, the Kalman filter model is established for all intersections, and through the initiation and association algorithm of multi-target, the false intersection can be eliminated. Simulations show that the presented method is valid.展开更多

The study integrates four distinct open-source datasets—WISDM, DaLiAc, MotionSense, and PAMAP2—to develop a generalized MLP model for classifying six human activities. Performance analysis of the fused model for each dataset reveals accuracy rates of 95.83 for WISDM, 97 for DaLiAc, 94.65 for MotionSense, and 98.54 for PAMAP2. A comparative evaluation was conducted between the fused MLP model and the individual dataset models, with the latter tested on separate validation sets. The results indicate that the MLP model, trained on the fused dataset, exhibits superior performance relative to the models trained on individual datasets. This finding suggests that multisource data fusion significantly enhances the generalization and accuracy of HAR systems. The improved performance underscores the potential of integrating diverse data sources to create more robust and comprehensive models for activity recognition.展开更多

The focus is on scenarios where the correlations among Measurement Noises(MNs) from different sensors are unknown. Firstly, a non-augmented local estimator that applies to sampling cases is designed to provide unbiased Local Estimates(LEs) at the fusion points. Subsequently, a measurement-equivalent approach is then developed to parameterize the correlation structure between LEs and reformulate LEs into a unified form, thereby constraining the correlations arising from MNs to an admissible range. Simultaneously, a family of upper bounds on the joint error covariance matrix of LEs is derived based on the constrained correlations, avoiding the need to calculate the exact error cross-covariance matrix of LEs. Finally, a sequential fusion estimator is proposed in the sense of Weighted Minimum Mean Square Error(WMMSE), and it is proven to be unbiased, consistent, and more accurate than the well-known covariance intersection method. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by highlighting improvements in consistency and accuracy.展开更多

文摘Near real-time maize phenology monitoring is crucial for field management,cropping system adjustments,and yield estimation.Most phenological monitoring methods are post-seasonal and heavily rely on high-frequency time-series data.These methods are not applicable on the unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)platform due to the high cost of acquiring time-series UAV images and the shortage of UAV-based phenological monitoring methods.To address these challenges,we employed the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique(SMOTE)for sample augmentation,aiming to resolve the small sample modelling problem.Moreover,we utilized enhanced"separation"and"compactness"feature selection methods to identify input features from multiple data sources.In this process,we incorporated dynamic multi-source data fusion strategies,involving Vegetation index(VI),Color index(CI),and Texture features(TF).A two-stage neural network that combines Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)and Long Short-Term Memory Network(LSTM)is proposed to identify maize phenological stages(including sowing,seedling,jointing,trumpet,tasseling,maturity,and harvesting)on UAV platforms.The results indicate that the dataset generated by SMOTE closely resembles the measured dataset.Among dynamic data fusion strategies,the VI-TF combination proves to be most effective,with CI-TF and VI-CI combinations following behind.Notably,as more data sources are integrated,the model's demand for input features experiences a significant decline.In particular,the CNN-LSTM model,based on the fusion of three data sources,exhibited remarkable reliability when validating the three datasets.For Dataset 1(Beijing Xiaotangshan,2023:Data from 12 UAV Flight Missions),the model achieved an overall accuracy(OA)of 86.53%.Additionally,its precision(Pre),recall(Rec),F1 score(F1),false acceptance rate(FAR),and false rejection rate(FRR)were 0.89,0.89,0.87,0.11,and 0.11,respectively.The model also showed strong generalizability in Dataset 2(Beijing Xiaotangshan,2023:Data from 6 UAV Flight Missions)and Dataset 3(Beijing Xiaotangshan,2022:Data from 4 UAV Flight Missions),with OAs of 89.4%and 85%,respectively.Meanwhile,the model has a low demand for input featu res,requiring only 54.55%(99 of all featu res).The findings of this study not only offer novel insights into near real-time crop phenology monitoring,but also provide technical support for agricultural field management and cropping system adaptation.

文摘Accurate prediction of manufacturing carbon emissions is of great significance for subsequent low-carbon optimization.To improve the accuracy of carbon emission prediction with insufficient hobbing data,combining the advantages of improved algorithm and supplementary data,a method of carbon emission prediction of hobbing based on cross-process data fusion was proposed.Firstly,we analyzed the similarity of machining process and manufacturing characteristics and selected milling data as the fusion material for hobbing data.Then,the adversarial learning was used to reduce the difference between data from the two processes,so as to realize the data fusion at the characteristic level.After that,based on Meta-Transfer Learning method,the carbon emission prediction model of hobbing was established.The effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method were verified by case analysis and comparison.The prediction accuracy of the proposed method is better than other methods across different data sizes.

文摘Addressing the current challenges in transforming pixel displacement into physical displacement in visual monitoring technologies,as well as the inability to achieve precise full-field monitoring,this paper proposes a method for identifying the structural dynamic characteristics of wind turbines based on visual monitoring data fusion.Firstly,the Lucas-Kanade Tomasi(LKT)optical flow method and a multi-region of interest(ROI)monitoring structure are employed to track pixel displacements,which are subsequently subjected to band pass filtering and resampling operations.Secondly,the actual displacement time history is derived through double integration of the acquired acceleration data and subsequent band pass filtering.The scale factor is obtained by applying the least squares method to compare the visual displacement with the displacement derived from double integration of the acceleration data.Based on this,the multi-point displacement time histories under physical coordinates are obtained using the vision data and the scale factor.Subsequently,when visual monitoring of displacements becomes impossible due to issues such as image blurring or lens occlusion,the structural vibration equation and boundary condition constraints,among other key parameters,are employed to predict the displacements at unknown monitoring points,thereby enabling full-field displacement monitoring and dynamic characteristic testing of the structure.Finally,a small-scale shaking table test was conducted on a simulated wind turbine structure undergoing shutdown to validate the dynamic characteristics of the proposed method through test verification.The research results indicate that the proposed method achieves a time-domain error within the submillimeter range and a frequency-domain accuracy of over 99%,effectively monitoring the full-field structural dynamic characteristics of wind turbines and providing a basis for the condition assessment of wind turbine structures.

文摘The monitoring signals of bearings from single-source sensor often contain limited information for characterizing various working condition,which may lead to instability and uncertainty of the class-imbalanced intelligent fault diagnosis.On the other hand,the vectorization of multi-source sensor signals may not only generate high-dimensional vectors,leading to increasing computational complexity and overfitting problems,but also lose the structural information and the coupling information.This paper proposes a new method for class-imbalanced fault diagnosis of bearing using support tensor machine(STM)driven by heterogeneous data fusion.The collected sound and vibration signals of bearings are successively decomposed into multiple frequency band components to extract various time-domain and frequency-domain statistical parameters.A third-order hetero-geneous feature tensor is designed based on multisensors,frequency band components,and statistical parameters.STM-based intelligent model is constructed to preserve the structural information of the third-order heterogeneous feature tensor for bearing fault diagnosis.A series of comparative experiments verify the advantages of the proposed method.

文摘This paper addresses the accuracy and timeliness limitations of traditional comprehensive prediction methods by proposing an approach of decision-level fusion of multisource data.A risk prediction indicator system was established for water and mud inrush in tunnels by analyzing advanced prediction data for specifi c tunnel segments.Additionally,the indicator weights were determined using the analytic hierarchy process combined with the Huber weighting method.Subsequently,a multisource data decision-layer fusion algorithm was utilized to generate fused imaging results for tunnel water and mud inrush risk predictions.Meanwhile,risk analysis was performed for different tunnel sections to achieve spatial and temporal complementarity within the indicator system and optimize redundant information.Finally,model feasibility was validated using the CZ Project Sejila Mountain Tunnel segment as a case study,yielding favorable risk prediction results and enabling effi cient information fusion and support for construction decision-making.

文摘This research investigates the application of multisource data fusion using a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) for Human Activity Recognition (HAR). The study integrates four distinct open-source datasets—WISDM, DaLiAc, MotionSense, and PAMAP2—to develop a generalized MLP model for classifying six human activities. Performance analysis of the fused model for each dataset reveals accuracy rates of 95.83 for WISDM, 97 for DaLiAc, 94.65 for MotionSense, and 98.54 for PAMAP2. A comparative evaluation was conducted between the fused MLP model and the individual dataset models, with the latter tested on separate validation sets. The results indicate that the MLP model, trained on the fused dataset, exhibits superior performance relative to the models trained on individual datasets. This finding suggests that multisource data fusion significantly enhances the generalization and accuracy of HAR systems. The improved performance underscores the potential of integrating diverse data sources to create more robust and comprehensive models for activity recognition.

文摘This study investigates a consistent fusion algorithm for distributed multi-rate multi-sensor systems operating in feedback-memory configurations, where each sensor's sampling period is uniform and an integer multiple of the state update period. The focus is on scenarios where the correlations among Measurement Noises(MNs) from different sensors are unknown. Firstly, a non-augmented local estimator that applies to sampling cases is designed to provide unbiased Local Estimates(LEs) at the fusion points. Subsequently, a measurement-equivalent approach is then developed to parameterize the correlation structure between LEs and reformulate LEs into a unified form, thereby constraining the correlations arising from MNs to an admissible range. Simultaneously, a family of upper bounds on the joint error covariance matrix of LEs is derived based on the constrained correlations, avoiding the need to calculate the exact error cross-covariance matrix of LEs. Finally, a sequential fusion estimator is proposed in the sense of Weighted Minimum Mean Square Error(WMMSE), and it is proven to be unbiased, consistent, and more accurate than the well-known covariance intersection method. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by highlighting improvements in consistency and accuracy.
