Seismic noise attenuation is an important step in seismic data processing. Most noise attenuation algorithms are based on the analysis of time-frequency characteristics of the seismic data and noise. We have aimed to attenuate white noise of seismic data using the convolutional neural network (CNN). Traditional CNN-based noise attenuation algorithms need prior information (the “clean” seismic data or the noise contained in the seismic) in the training process. However, it is difficult to obtain such prior information in practice. We assume that the white noise contained in the seismic data can be simulated by a sufficient number of user-generated white noise realizations. We then attenuate the seismic white noise using the modified denoising CNN (MDnCNN). The MDnCNN does not need prior clean seismic data nor pure noise in the training procedure. To accurately and efficiently learn the features of seismic data and band-limited noise at different frequency bandwidths, we first decomposed the seismic data into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using variational mode decomposition and then apply our denoising process to the IMFs. We use synthetic and field data examples to illustrate the robustness and superiority of our method over the traditional methods. The experiments demonstrate that our method can not only attenuate most of the white noise but it also rejects the migration artifacts.

Condition monitoring is used to track the unavoidable phases of rolling element bearings in an induction motor (IM) to ensure reliable operation in domestic and industrial machinery. The convolutional neural network (CNN) has been used as an effective tool to recognize and classify multiple rolling bearing faults in recent times. Due to the nonlinear and nonstationary nature of vibration signals, it is quite difficult to achieve high classification accuracy when directly using the original signal as the input of a convolution neural network. To evaluate the fault characteristics, ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) is implemented to decompose the signal into multiple intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) in this work. Then, based on the kurtosis value, insignificant IMFs are filtered out and the original signal is reconstructed with the rest of the IMFs so that the reconstructed signal contains the fault characteristics. After that, the 1-D reconstructed vibration signal is converted into a 2-D image using a continuous wavelet transform with information from the damage frequency band. This also transfers the signal into a time-frequency domain and reduces the nonstationary effects of the vibration signal. Finally, the generated images of various fault conditions, which possess a discriminative pattern relative to the types of faults, are used to train an appropriate CNN model. Additionally, with the reconstructed signal, two different methods are used to create an image to compare with our proposed image creation approach. The vibration signal is collected from a self-designed testbed containing multiple bearings of different fault conditions. Two other conventional CNN architectures are compared with our proposed model. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that the image generated with fault signatures not only accurately classifies multiple faults with CNN but can also be considered as a reliable and stable method for the diagnosis of fault bearings.

To avoid power supply hazards caused by cable failures, this paper presents an approach of incipient cable failure recognition and classification based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) and a convolutional neural network (CNN). By using VMD, the original current signal is decomposed into seven modes with different center frequencies. Then, 42 features are extracted for the seven modes and used to construct a feature vector as input of the CNN to classify incipient cable failure through deep learning. Compared with using the original signals directly as the CNN input, the proposed approach is more efficient and robust. Experiments on different classifiers, namely, the decision tree (DT), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), BP neural network (BP) and support vector machine (SVM), and show that the CNN outperforms the other classifiers in terms of accuracy.

Seismic data is easily affected by random noise during field data acquisition. Therefore, random noise attenuation plays an important role in seismic data processing and interpretation. According to decomposition characteristics of seismic signals by using variational mode decomposition (VMD) and the constraint conditions of correlation coefficients, this paper puts forward a method for random noise attenuation in seismic data, which is called variational mode decomposition correlation coefficients VMDC. Firstly, the original signals were decomposed into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) with different characteristics by VMD. Then, the correlation coefficients between each IMF and the original signal were calculated. Next, based on the differences among correlation coefficients of effective signals and random noise as well as the original signals, the corresponding treatment was carried out, and the effective signals were reconstructed. Finally, the random noise attenuation was realized. After adding random noise to simple sine signals and the synthetic seismic record, the improved complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (ICEEMD) and VMDC were used for testing. The testing results indicate that the proposed VMDC has better random noise attenuation effects. It was also used in real-world seismic data noise attenuation. The results also show that it could effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of seismic data and could provide high-quality basic data for further interpretation of seismic data.

Early detection of arrhythmia and effective treatment can prevent deaths caused by cardiovascular disease (CVD). In clinical practice, the diagnosis is made by checking the electrocardiogram (ECG) beat-by-beat, but this is usually time-consuming and laborious. In the paper, we propose an automatic ECG classification method based on Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). CWT is used to decompose ECG signals to obtain different time-frequency components, and CNN is used to extract features from the 2D-scalogram composed of the above time-frequency components. Considering the surrounding R peak interval (also called RR interval) is also useful for the diagnosis of arrhythmia, four RR interval features are extracted and combined with the CNN features to input into a fully connected layer for ECG classification. By testing in the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, our method achieves an overall performance of 70.75%, 67.47%, 68.76%, and 98.74% for positive predictive value, sensitivity, F1-score, and accuracy, respectively. Compared with existing methods, the overall F1-score of our method is increased by 4.75~16.85%. Because our method is simple and highly accurate, it can potentially be used as a clinical auxiliary diagnostic tool.
