文摘Multi-sensor measurement iswidely employed in rotatingmachinery to ensure the safety ofmachines.The information provided by the single sensor is not comprehensive.Multi-sensor signals can provide complementary information in characterizing the health condition of machines.This paper proposed a multi-sensor fusion convolution neural network(MF-CNN)model.The proposed model adds a 2-D convolution layer before the classical 1-D CNN to automatically extract complementary features of multi-sensor signals and minimize the loss of information.A series of experiments are carried out on a rolling bearing test rig to verify the model.Vibration and sound signals are fused to achieve higher classification accuracy than typical machine learning model.In addition,the model is further applied to gas turbine abnormal detection,and shows great robustness and generalization.
文摘For complementarity and redundancy of multi-sensor data fusion (MSDF) system,it is an effective approach for multiple components measurement.In order to measure nutrient solution on-line,a dynamic and complex system under greenhouse environment,sensors should have intelligent properties including self-calibration and self-compensation. Meanwhile,it is necessary for multiple sensors to cooperate and interact for enhancing reliability of multi-sensor system. Because of the properties of multi-agent system (MAS),it is an appropriate tool to study MSDF system.This paper proposed an architecture of MSDF system based on MAS for the multiple components measurement of nutrient solution.The sensor agent's structure and function modules are analyzed and described in detail,the formal definitions are given,too.The relations of the sensors are modeled to implement reliability diagnosis of the multi-sensor system,so that the reliability of nutrient control system is enhanced.This study offers an effective approach for the study of MSDF.

文摘The perception module of advanced driver assistance systems plays a vital role.Perception schemes often use a single sensor for data processing and environmental perception or adopt the information processing results of various sensors for the fusion of the detection layer.This paper proposes a multi-scale and multi-sensor data fusion strategy in the front end of perception and accomplishes a multi-sensor function disparity map generation scheme.A binocular stereo vision sensor composed of two cameras and a light deterction and ranging(LiDAR)sensor is used to jointly perceive the environment,and a multi-scale fusion scheme is employed to improve the accuracy of the disparity map.This solution not only has the advantages of dense perception of binocular stereo vision sensors but also considers the perception accuracy of LiDAR sensors.Experiments demonstrate that the multi-scale multi-sensor scheme proposed in this paper significantly improves disparity map estimation.
文摘In order to address the issue of sensor configuration redundancy in intelligent driving,this paper constructs a multi-objective optimization model that considers cost,coverage ability,and perception performance.And then,combining a specific set of parameters,the NSGA-II algorithm is used to solve the multi-objective model established in this paper,and a Pareto front containing 24 typical configuration schemes is extracted after considering empirical constraints.Finally,using the decision preference method proposed in this paper that combines subjective and objective factors,decision scores are calculated and ranked for various configuration schemes from both cost and performance preferences.The research results indicate that the multi-objective optimization model established in this paper can screen and optimize various configuration schemes from the optimal principle of the vehicle,and the optimized configuration schemes can be quantitatively ranked to obtain the decision results for the vehicle under different preference tendencies.

文摘Although laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)technology is considered one of the most promising additive man-ufacturing techniques,the fabricated parts still suffer from porosity defects,which can severely impact their mechanical performance.Monitoring the printing process using a variety of sensors to collect process signals can realize a comprehensive capture of the processing status;thus,the monitoring accuracy can be improved.However,existing multi-sensing signals are mainly optical and acoustic,and camera-based signals are mostly layer-wise images captured after printing,preventing real-time monitoring.This paper proposes a real-time melt-pool-based in-situ quality monitoring method for LPBF using multiple sensors.High-speed cameras,photodiodes,and microphones were used to collect signals during the experimental process.All three types of signals were transformed from one-dimensional time-domain signals into corresponding two-dimensional grayscale images,which enabled the capture of more localized features.Based on an improved LeNet-5 model and the weighted Dempster-Shafer evidence theory,single-sensor,dual-sensor and triple-sensor fusion monitoring models were in-vestigated with the three types of signals,and their performances were compared.The results showed that the triple-sensor fusion monitoring model achieved the highest recognition accuracy,with accuracy rates of 97.98%,92.63%,and 100%for high-,medium-,and low-quality samples,respectively.Hence,a multi-sensor fusion based melt pool monitoring system can improve the accuracy of quality monitoring in the LPBF process,which has the potential to reduce porosity defects.Finally,the experimental analysis demonstrates that the convolutional neural network proposed in this study has better classification accuracy compared to other machine learning models.

文摘This study proposes a Kalman filter-based indoor vehicle positioning method for cases in which the steering angle and rotation speed of the vehicle’s wheels are unknown.By fusing the position and velocity data from the ultra-wideband sensors and acceleration and orientation data from the inertial measurement unit,we developed two algorithms to estimate the real-time position of the vehicle based on a linear Kalman filter and extended Kalman filter,respectively.We then conducted simulations and experiments to examine the performances of the algorithms.In the experiment,the Kalman filtering hyperparameters are configured,and we then ran the two algorithms to determine the positioning precision and accuracy with the ground truth produced via LiDAR.We verified that our method can improve precision and accuracy compared with the raw positioning data and can achieve desirable effects for indoor vehicle positioning when vehicles travel at low speeds.

文摘In this paper we present an evidence-gathering approach to slove the multi-sensor data fusion problem. It uses an improved Hough transformation method rather than the usual statistical or geometric approach to extract the directions and positions of the walls in a room and update the location (orientation and position)of a mobile robot. The simulation results show that the proposed method is of practical importance since it is very simple and easy to implement.
