Failure time prognosis in manufacturing process plays a crucial role in guaranteeing manufacturing safety and reducing maintenance loss. However, most current prognosis methods face great difficulty when handling massive data collected from manufacturing process. Convolutional neural network (CNN) provides an effective way to extract features with massive data. Due to the difference between images and multisensory signals, CNN is not suitable for machining process. Inspired by the idea of CNN, a novel prognosis framework is proposed based on the characteristics of multisensory signals, which is called multi-dislocated time series convolutional neural network (MDTSCNN). The proposed MDTSCNN is composed of multi-dislocate layer, convolutional layer, pooling layer and fully connected layer. By adding a multi-dislocate layer, this model can learn the relationship between different signals and different intervals in periodic multisensory signals. The effectiveness of proposed method is validated by a milling process. Compared to other prognosis method, the proposed MDTSCNN shows enhanced performances in prediction accuracy.

Monitoring of tool wear in machining process has found its importance to predict tool life, reduce equipment downtime, and tool costs. Traditional visual methods require expert experience and human resources to obtain accurate tool wear information. With the development of charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor and the deep learning algorithms, it has become possible to use the convolutional neural network (CNN) model to automatically identify the wear types of high-temperature alloy tools in the face milling process. In this paper, the CNN model is developed based on our image dataset. The convolutional automatic encoder (CAE) is used to pre-train the network model, and the model parameters are fine-tuned by back propagation (BP) algorithm combined with stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm. The established ToolWearnet network model has the function of identifying the tool wear types. The experimental results show that the average recognition precision rate of the model can reach 96.20%. At the same time, the automatic detection algorithm of tool wear value is improved by combining the identified tool wear types. In order to verify the feasibility of the method, an experimental system is built on the machine tool. By matching the frame rate of the industrial camera and the machine tool spindle speed, the wear image information of all the inserts can be obtained in the machining gap. The automatic detection method of tool wear value is compared with the result of manual detection by high precision digital optical microscope, the mean absolute percentage error is 4.76%, which effectively verifies the effectiveness and practicality of the method.

Energy management technology of demand-side is a key process of the smart grid that helps achieve a more efficient use of generation assets by reducing the energy demand of users during peak loads. In the context of a smart grid and smart metering, this paper proposes a hybrid model of energy disaggregation through deep feature learning for non-intrusive load monitoring to classify home appliances based on the information of main meters. In addition, a deep neural model of supervised energy disaggregation with a high accuracy for giving awareness to end users and generating detailed feedback from demand-side with no need for expensive smart outlet sensors was introduced. A new functional API model of deep learning (DL) based on energy disaggregation was designed by combining a one-dimensional convolutional neural network and recurrent neural network (1D CNN-RNN). The proposed model was trained on Google Colab’s Tesla graphics processing unit (GPU) using Keras. The residential energy disaggregation dataset was used for real households and was implemented in Tensorflow backend. Three different disaggregation methods were compared, namely the convolutional neural network, 1D CNN-RNN, and long short-term memory. The results showed that energy can be disaggregated from the metrics very accurately using the proposed 1D CNN-RNN model. Finally, as a work in progress, we introduced the DL on the Edge for Fog Computing non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) on a low-cost embedded board using a state-of-the-art inference library called uTensor that can support any Mbed enabled board with no need for the DL API of web services and internet connectivity.

Fog computing extends the concept of cloud computing to the edge of network to relieve performance bottleneck and minimize data analytics latency at the central server of a cloud. It uses edge nodes directly to perform data input and data analysis. In public opinion analysis system, edge nodes that collect opinions from users are responsible for some data filtering jobs including sentiment analysis. Therefore, it is crucial to find suitable algorithm that is lightweight in operation and accurate in predictive performance. In this paper, we focus on Chinese sentiment analysis job in fog computing environment and propose a non-task-specific method called Channel Transformation Based Convolutional Neural Network (CTBCNN) for Chinese sentiment classification, which uses a new structure called channel transformation based (CTB) convolutional layer to enhance the ability of automatic feature extraction and applies global average pooling layer to prevent overfitting. Through experiments and analysis, we show that our method do achieve competitive accuracy and it is convenient to apply this method to different cases in operation.

Image deconvolution has been an important issue recently. It has two kinds of approaches: non-blind and blind. Non-blind deconvolution is a classic problem of image deblurring, which assumes that the PSF is known and does not change universally in space. Recently, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been used for non-blind deconvolution. Though CNNs can deal with complex changes for unknown images, some CNN-based conventional methods can only handle small PSFs and does not consider the use of large PSFs in the real world. In this paper we propose a non-blind deconvolution framework based on a CNN that can remove large scale ringing in a deblurred image. Our method has three key points. The first is that our network architecture is able to preserve both large and small features in the image. The second is that the training dataset is created to preserve the details. The third is that we extend the images to minimize the effects of large ringing on the image borders. In our experiments, we used three kinds of large PSFs and were able to observe high-precision results from our method both quantitatively and qualitatively.
