Fusing dual‐tree quaternion wavelet transform and local mesh based features for grading of diabetic retinopathy using extreme learning machine classifier

The trend prediction of the stock is a main challenge. Accidental factors often lead to short-term sharp fluctuations in stock markets, deviating from the original normal trend. The short-term fluctuation of stock price has high noise, which is not conducive to the prediction of stock trends. Therefore, we used discrete wavelet transform (DWT)-based denoising to denoise stock data. Denoising the stock data assisted us to eliminate the influences of short-term random events on the continuous trend of the stock. The denoised data showed more stable trend characteristics and smoothness. Extreme learning machine (ELM) is one of the effective training algorithms for fully connected single-hidden-layer feedforward neural networks (SLFNs), which possesses the advantages of fast convergence, unique results, and it does not converge to a local minimum. Therefore, this paper proposed a combination of ELM- and DWT-based denoising to predict the trend of stocks. The proposed method was used to predict the trend of 400 stocks in China. The prediction results of the proposed method are a good proof of the efficacy of DWT-based denoising for stock trends, and showed an excellent performance compared to 12 machine learning algorithms (e.g., recurrent neural network (RNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM)).

Wear Condition

In machining process, tool wear is an inevitable consequence which progresses rapidly leading to a catastrophic failure of the system and accidents. Moreover, machinery failure has become more costly and has undesirable consequences on the availability and the productivity. Consequently, developing a robust approach for monitoring tool wear condition is needed to get accurate product dimensions with high quality surface and reduced stopping time of machines. Prognostics and health management has become one of the most challenging aspects for monitoring the wear condition of cutting tools. This study focuses on the evaluation of the current health condition of cutting tools and the prediction of its remaining useful life. Indeed, the proposed method consists of the integration of complex continuous wavelet transform (CCWT) and improved extreme learning machine (IELM). In the proposed IELM, the hidden layer output matrix is given by inverting the Moore–Penrose generalized inverse. After the decomposition of the acoustic emission signals using CCWT, the nodes energy of coefficients have been taken as relevant features which are then used as inputs in IELM. The principal idea is that a non-linear regression in a feature space of high dimension is involved by the extreme learning machine to map the input data via a non-linear function for generating the degradation model. Then, the health indicator is obtained through the exploitation of the derived model which is in turn used to estimate the remaining useful life. The method was carried out on data of the real world collected during various cuts of a computer numerical controlled tool.
