Bearing performance degradation assessment is meaningful for keeping mechanical reliability and safety. For this purpose, a novel method based on kernel locality preserving projection is proposed in this article. Kernel locality preserving projection extends the traditional locality preserving projection into the non-linear form by using a kernel function and it is more appropriate to explore the non-linear information hidden in the data sets. Considering this point, the kernel locality preserving projection is used to generate a non-linear subspace from the normal bearing data. The test data are then projected onto the subspace to obtain an index for assessing bearing degradation degrees. The degradation index that is expressed in the form of inner product indicates similarity of the normal data and the test data. Validations by using monitoring data from two experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Manifold learning is a powerful dimensionality reduction tool for a hyperspectral image (HSI) classification to relieve the curse of dimensionality and to reveal the intrinsic low-dimensional manifold. However, a specific characteristic of HSIs, i.e., irregular spatial dependency, is not taken into consideration in the method design, which can yield many spatially homogenous subregions in an HSI scence. Conventional manifold learning methods, such as a locality preserving projection (LPP), pursue a unified projection on the entire HSI, while neglecting the local homogeneities on the HSI manifold caused by those spatially homogenous subregions. In this work, we propose a novel multiscale superpixelwise LPP (MSuperLPP) for HSI classification to overcome the challenge. First, we partition an HSI into homogeneous subregions with a multiscale superpixel segmentation. Then, on each scale, subregion specific LPPs and the associated preliminary classifications are performed. Finally, we aggregate the classification results from all scales using a decision fusion strategy to achieve the final result. Experimental results on three real hyperspectral data sets validate the effectiveness of our method.

The accurate estimation of suspended sediments (SSs) carries significance in determining the volume of dam storage, river carrying capacity, pollution susceptibility, soil erosion potential, aquatic ecological impacts, and the design and operation of hydraulic structures. The presented study proposes a new method for accurately estimating daily SSs using antecedent discharge and sediment information. The novel method is developed by hybridizing the multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) and the Kmeans clustering algorithm (MARS–KM). The proposed method’s efficacy is established by comparing its performance with the adaptive neuro-fuzzy system (ANFIS), MARS, and M5 tree (M5Tree) models in predicting SSs at two stations situated on the Yangtze River of China, according to the three assessment measurements, RMSE, MAE, and NSE. Two modeling scenarios are employed; data are divided into 50–50% for model training and testing in the first scenario, and the training and test data sets are swapped in the second scenario. In Guangyuan Station, the MARS–KM showed a performance improvement compared to ANFIS, MARS, and M5Tree methods in term of RMSE by 39%, 30%, and 18% in the first scenario and by 24%, 22%, and 8% in the second scenario, respectively, while the improvement in RMSE of ANFIS, MARS, and M5Tree was 34%, 26%, and 27% in the first scenario and 7%, 16%, and 6% in the second scenario, respectively, at Beibei Station. Additionally, the MARS–KM models provided much more satisfactory estimates using only discharge values as inputs.

Synchrotron sources offer high-brilliance X-ray beams which are ideal for spatially and time-resolved studies. Large amounts of wide- and small-angle X-ray scattering data can now be generated rapidly, for example, during routine scanning experiments. Consequently, the analysis of the large data sets produced has become a complex and pressing issue. Even relatively simple analyses become difficult when a single data set can contain many thousands of individual diffraction patterns. This article reports on a new software application for the automated analysis of scattering intensity profiles. It is capable of batch-processing thousands of individual data files without user intervention. Diffraction data can be fitted using a combination of background functions and non-linear peak functions. To compliment the batch-wise operation mode, the software includes several specialist algorithms to ensure that the results obtained are reliable. These include peak-tracking, artefact removal, function elimination and spread-estimate fitting. Furthermore, as well as non-linear fitting, the software can calculate integrated intensities and selected orientation parameters.

A new stress-strain relation capable of reproducing the entire stress-strain range of typical soil tests is presented. The new relation involves a total of five parameters, four of which can be inferred directly from typical test data. The fifth parameter is a fitting parameter with a relatively narrow range. The capabilities of the new relation is demonstrated by the application to various clay and sand data sets.

Many Indonesian people, especially in Bali, make pigs as livestock. Pig livestock are susceptible to various types of diseases and there have been many cases of pig deaths due to diseases that cause losses to breeders. Therefore, the author wants to create an Android-based application that can predict the type of disease in pigs by applying the C4.5 Algorithm. The C4.5 algorithm is an algorithm for classifying data in order to obtain a rule that is used to predict something. In this study, 50 training data sets were used with 8 types of diseases in pigs and 31 symptoms of disease. which is then inputted into the system so that the data is processed so that the system in the form of an Android application can predict the type of disease in pigs. In the testing process, it was carried out by testing 15 test data sets and producing an accuracy value that is 86.7%. In testing the application features built using the Kotlin programming language and the SQLite database, it has been running as expected.
