Monitoring the degradation state of hydraulic pumps is of great significance to the safe and stable operation of equipment. As an important step, feature extraction has always been challenging. The non-stationary and nonlinear characteristics of vibration signals are likely to weaken the performance of traditional features. The two-dimensional image representation of vibration signals can provide more information for feature extraction, but it is challenging to obtain sufficient information based on small-size images. To solve these problems, a method for feature extraction based on modified hierarchical decomposition (MHD) and image processing is proposed in this paper. First, a set of signals decomposed by MHD are converted into gray-scale images. Second, features from accelerated segment test (FAST) algorithm are applied to detecting the feature points of the gray-scale image. Third, the real part of Gabor filter bank is used to convolve the images, and the responses of feature points are used to calculate histograms that are regarded as feature vectors. The method for feature extraction fully acquires the multi-layered texture information of small-size images and removes the redundant information. Furthermore, support vector machine (SVM) and nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) are introduced to conduct feature selection and state identification. NSGA-II and SVM can conduct the joint optimization of these two goals. The details of the proposed method are validated using experimental data, and the results show that the highest recognition rate of our proposed method can reach 100%. The results of the comparison among the proposed method, local binary pattern (LBP), and one-dimensional ternary patterns (1D-TPs) certify the superiorities of the proposed method. It obtains the highest classification accuracy (99.7%–98%) and the lowest feature set dimension (13–10).

We consider the problem of pricing edges of a line graph so as to maximize the profit made from selling intervals to single-minded customers. An instance is given by a set E of n edges with a limited supply for each edge, and a set of m clients, where each client specifies one interval of E she is interested in and a budget B j which is the maximum price she is willing to pay for that interval. An envy-free pricing is one in which every customer is allocated an (possibly empty) interval maximizing her utility. Grandoni and Rothvoss (SIAM J. Comput. 2016) proposed a polynomial-time approximation scheme ( PTAS ) for the unlimited supply case with running time ( nm ) O ((1/ɛ) 1/ɛ ) , which was extended to the limited supply case by Grandoni and Wiese (ESA 2019). By utilizing the known hierarchical decomposition of doubling metrics , we give a PTAS with running time ( nm ) O (1/ ɛ 2 ) for the unlimited supply case. We then consider the limited supply case, and the notion of ɛ-envy-free pricing in which a customer gets an allocation maximizing her utility within an additive error of ɛ. For this case, we develop an approximation scheme with running time ( nm ) O (log 5/2 max e H e /ɛ 3 ) , where H e = B max ( e )/ B min ( e ) is the maximum ratio of the budgets of any two customers demanding edge e . This yields a PTAS in the uniform budget case, and a quasi-PTAS for the general case. The best approximation known, in both cases, for the exact envy-free pricing version is O (log c max ), where c max is the maximum item supply. Our method is based on the known hierarchical decomposition of doubling metrics, and can be applied to other problems, such as the maximum feasible subsystem problem with interval matrices.

AbstractThere is an inherent tension between functional descriptions of products and structural descriptions. Traditionally system architecture combine the two, by mapping system elements to functions. In this process fundamental decisions about the embodiment of a product are often taken without proper scrutiny. Axiomatic design advocates a zigzag between functional decomposition and system break down. While this approach makes sense for ab initio design these are rare and most products are developed incrementally., This paper takes up the idea of a functional reference architecture.Conventional functional modelling advocates a hierarchical decomposition into sub function. By contrast FRAs decompose function into function chain, i.e., dependent sequences of sub function required to carry out an overall function. This allows the identification of common sub-functions in different chains, and thereby generates a lattice structure of functions rather than a tree. This enables a detailed but solution neutral description of the product.This concept has attracted interest in industry but does not have many tools and methods to develop FRA. The paper discusses some of the areas that require research
