A method to analyze the acoustic signals collected in fully-mechanized caving face is presented in this paper. Through analyzing the marginal spectrum and frequency spectrum of intrinsic mode functions obtained by empirical mode decomposition, acoustic signals’ frequency and amplitude characteristics are gotten, that is, high frequency signals about 1000Hz ~2800Hz are produced when the top coal is combined with gangue. Furthermore, the acoustic signals’ instantaneous energy spectrums in the frequency range of 1000Hz ~2800Hz can be used to identify the coal-rock interface.

Abstract It is important to recognize the type of cloud for automatic observation by ground nephoscope. Although cloud shapes are protean, cloud textures are relatively stable and contain rich information. In this paper, a novel method is presented to extract the nephogram feature from the Hilbert spectrum of cloud images using bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD). Cloud images are first decomposed into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of textural features through BEMD. The IMFs are converted from two- to one-dimensional format, and then the Hilbert–Huang transform is performed to obtain the Hilbert spectrum and the Hilbert marginal spectrum. It is shown that the Hilbert spectrum and the Hilbert marginal spectrum of different types of cloud textural images can be divided into three different frequency bands. A recognition rate of 87.5%–96.97% is achieved through random cloud image testing using this algorithm, indicating the efficiency of the proposed method for cloud nephogram.

This paper presents a random noise reduction method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and wavelet threshold filtering. Firstly, we have conducted spectrum analysis and analyzed the frequency band range of effective signals and noise. Secondly, we make use of EEMD method on seismic signals to obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of each trace. Then, wavelet threshold noise reduction method is used on the high frequency IMFs of each trace to obtain new high frequency IMFs. Finally, reconstruct the desired signal by adding the new high frequency IMFs on the low frequency IMFs and the trend item together. When applying our method on synthetic seismic record and field data we can get good results.

Noise reduction of underwater acoustic signals is of great significance in the fields of military and ocean exploration. Based on the adaptive decomposition characteristic of uniform phase empirical mode decomposition (UPEMD), a noise reduction method for underwater acoustic signals is proposed, which combines amplitude-aware permutation entropy (AAPE) and Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC). UPEMD is a recently proposed improved empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm that alleviates the mode splitting and residual noise effects of EMD. AAPE is a tool to quantify the information content of nonlinear time series. Unlike permutation entropy (PE), AAPE can reflect the amplitude information on time series. Firstly, the original signal is decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) by UPEMD. The AAPE of each IMF is calculated. The modes are separated into high-frequency IMFs and low-frequency IMFs, and all low-frequency IMFs are determined as useful IMFs (UIMFs). Then, the PCC between the high-frequency IMF with the smallest AAPE and the original signal is calculated. If PCC is greater than the threshold, the IMF is also determined as a UIMF. Finally, all UIMFs are reconstructed and the denoised signal is obtained. Chaotic signals with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) are used for denoising experiments. Compared with EMD and extreme-point symmetric mode decomposition (ESMD), the proposed method has higher SNR and smaller root mean square error (RMSE). The proposed method is applied to noise reduction of real underwater acoustic signals. The results show that the method can further eliminate noise and the chaotic attractors are smoother and clearer.

This investigation presents an improved ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) algorithm that can be applied to discontinuous data. The quality of the algorithm is assessed by creating artificial data gaps in continuous data, then comparing the extracted intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) from both data sets. The results show that errors increase as the gap length increases. In addition, errors in the high-frequency IMFs are less than the low-frequency IMFs. The majority of the errors in the high-frequency IMFs are due to end-effect errors associated with under-defined interpolation functions near the gap endpoints. A method that utilizes a mirroring technique is presented to reduce the errors in the discontinuous decomposition. The improved algorithm provides a more locally accurate decomposition of the data amidst data gaps. Overall, this simple but powerful algorithm expands EEMD's ability to locally extract periodic components from discontinuous data.

Complex nonlinear and nonstationary signals can be adaptively analyzed by the Hilbert–Huang transform through empirical mode decomposition and the Hilbert transform to generate the instantaneous energy. The instantaneous energy was able to display the local characteristics of the signals and had good time–frequency analysis capability, it is therefore widely applied to the analysis of vibration signals in the field of gear fault diagnosis. However, only a few extracted intrinsic mode functions through empirical mode decomposition can reflect fault feature or closely related to the faults but others are irrelevant. Therefore, the fault feature of the instantaneous energy for all intrinsic mode functions was not obvious and the accuracy of diagnosis was low. Aimed at solving this problem, a fault leading rate evaluation algorithm was proposed that can select those intrinsic mode functions, which reflect fault features (it was called the dominant intrinsic mode function) from all intrinsic mode functions. In the paper, this algorithm was applied to gear fault feature extraction. By calculating the instantaneous energy of the dominant intrinsic mode function the method could accurately extract gear fault feature and improve the accuracy of diagnosis. Both simulated signals and experimental signals of a Klingelnberg bevel gear were analyzed to verify the effectiveness and correctness of the algorithm.

A new spectral representation method of earthquake recordings using an improved Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is proposed in the paper. Firstly, the problem that the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) decomposed by the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) in HHT is not exactly orthogonal is pointed out and improved through the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization method which is referred as the orthogonal empirical mode decomposition (OEMD). Combined the OEMD and the Hilbert transform (HT) which is referred as the improved Hilbert-Huang transform (IHHT), the orthogonal intrinsic mode functions (OIMFs) and the orthogonal Hilbert spectrum (OHS) and the orthogonal Hilbert marginal spectrum (OHMS) are obtained. Then, the IHHT has been applied for the analysis of the El Centro earthquake recording. The obtained spectral representation result shows that the OHS gives more detailed and accurate information in a time–frequency–energy presentation than the Hilbert spectrum (HS) and the OHMS gives more faithful low-frequency energy presentation than the Fourier spectrum (FS) and the Hilbert marginal spectrum (HMS).

A novel multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis based on improved empirical mode decomposition for the non-linear and non-stationary vibration signal of machinery is proposed. As the intrinsic mode functions selection and Kolmogorov–Smirnov test are utilized in the detrending procedure, the present approach is quite available for contaminated data sets. The intrinsic mode functions selection is employed to deal with the undesired intrinsic mode functions named pseudocomponents, and the two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov test works on each intrinsic mode function and Gaussian noise to detect the noise-like intrinsic mode functions. The proposed method is adaptive to the signal and weakens the effect of noise, which makes this approach work well for vibration signals collected from poor working conditions. We assess the performance of the proposed procedure through the classic multiplicative cascading process. For the pure simulation signal, our results agree with the theoretical results, and for the contaminated time series, the proposed method outperforms the traditional multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis methods. In addition, we analyze the vibration signals of rolling bearing with different fault types, and the presence of multifractality is confirmed.

Abstract. In the last few years, wind power forecasting has established itself as an essential tool in the energy industry due to the increase of wind power penetration in the electric grid. This paper presents a wind power forecasting method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and deep learning. EEMD is employed to decompose wind power time series data into several intrinsic mode functions and a residual component. Afterwards, every intrinsic mode function is trained by means of a CNN-LSTM architecture. Finally, wind power forecast is obtained by adding the prediction of every component. Compared to the benchmark model, the proposed approach provides more accurate predictions for several time horizons. Furthermore, prediction intervals are modelled using quantile regression.
