Seismic waves are widely used in ground target classification due to its inherent characteristics. However, they are often affected by extraneous factors and have been found to demonstrate a complicated nonlinear characteristic. The traditional signal analysis methods cannot effectively extract the nonlinear features. Motivated by this fact, this paper applies the fractal dimension (FD) based on morphological covering (MC) method to extract features of the seismic signals for ground targets classification. With the data measured from test field, three different schemes based on MC method are employed to classify tracked vehicle and wheeled vehicle in different operation conditions. Experiment results demonstrate that the three proposed methods achieve more than 90% accuracy for vehicle classification.

In this study, we propose a method to identify the type of target and simultaneously determine its moving direction in a millimeter-wave radar system. First, using a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar sensor with the center frequency of 62 GHz, radar sensor data for a pedestrian, a cyclist, and a car are obtained in the test field. Then, a You Only Look Once (YOLO)-based network is trained with the sensor data to perform simultaneous target classification and moving direction estimation. To generate input data suitable for the deep learning-based classifier, a method of converting the radar detection result into an image form is also proposed. With the proposed method, we can identify the type of each target and its direction of movement with an accuracy of over 95%. Moreover, the pre-trained classifier shows an identification accuracy of 85% even for newly acquired data that have not been used for training.

We propose an ensemble approach for multi-target binary classification, where the target class breaks down into a disparate set of pre-defined target-types. The system goal is to maximize the probability of alerting on targets from any type while excluding background clutter. The agent-classifiers that make up the ensemble are binary classifiers trained to classify between one of the target-types vs. clutter. The agent ensemble approach offers several benefits for multi-target classification including straightforward in-situ tuning of the ensemble to drift in the target population and the ability to give an indication to a human operator of which target-type causes an alert. We propose a combination strategy that sums weighted likelihood ratios of the individual agent-classifiers, where the likelihood ratio is between the target-type for the agent vs. clutter. We show that this combination strategy is optimal under a conditionally non-discriminative assumption. We compare this combiner to the common strategy of selecting the maximum of the normalized agent-scores as the combiner score. We show experimentally that the proposed combiner gives excellent performance on the multi-target binary classification problems of pin-less verification of human faces and vehicle classification using acoustic signatures.

Modern vehicle dynamics in its broadest sense encompasses all forms of vehicles. It aims to improve the riding comfort and the maneuverability for high-quality automobiles. This paper develops a sensor-based fuzzy controller (SFC) with a composite anti-lock braking system and tracking control system (ABS/TCS) to navigate escaping motions of wheeled vehicles under the assumption of Coulombs viscous friction and lumped-mass/rigid-body motions. The so-called escaping dynamics of wheeled vehicles occurs when the vehicle escapes from the constrained space during braking or cornering. Traditionally, such slippage phenomenon is usually ignored because of its high frequency and strong nonlinear features. The proposed SFC is designed to shorten braking distance under emergent circumstances and minimize cornering radius to improve maneuverability for wheeled vehicles. Finally, detailed simulations of wheeled vehicles with a composite ABS/TCS under the assumption of Coulombs viscous friction are used to justify the SFC algorithm.

There has been a tight correlation between the change of the cement rotary kiln carrent and operation conditions, such as the kiln thermal condition, the thickness of the crust, the kiln tyre collapse and so on. Considering the different fractal characteristics that cement rotary kiln current signal exhibit in different conditions, this paper has study on the generalized fractal dimension of kiln current signal under different working conditions as the characteristic parameter. The levels and trends of rotary kiln current and working condition will be identified by computing the maximum correlation coefficient according to the generalized fractal dimension of detected signal and of cement rotary kiln current under different working condition.
