Precipitation intensity estimation is a critical issue in the analysis of weather conditions. Most existing approaches focus on building complex models to extract rain streaks. However, an efficient approach to estimate the precipitation intensity from surveillance cameras is still challenging. This study proposes a convolutional neural network known as the signal filtering convolutional neural network (SF-CNN) to handle precipitation intensity using surveillance-based images. The SF-CNN has two main blocks, the signal filtering block (SF block) and the gradually decreasing dimension block (GDD block), to extract features for the precipitation intensity estimation. The SF block with the filtering operation is constructed in different parts of the SF-CNN to remove the noise from the features containing rain streak information. The GDD block continuously takes the pair of the convolutional operation with the activation function to reduce the dimension of features. Our main contributions are (1) an SF block considering the signal filtering process and effectively removing the useless signals and (2) a procedure of gradually decreasing the dimension of the feature able to learn and reserve the information of features. Experiments on the self-collected dataset, consisting of 9394 raining images with six precipitation intensity levels, demonstrate the proposed approach’s effectiveness against the popular convolutional neural networks. To the best of our knowledge, the self-collected dataset is the largest dataset for monitoring infrared images of precipitation intensity.

The article considers the principle of operation of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and a method for detecting the focus of a person's attention using event-related potential (P300). The review of the existing hardware and software solutions for the implementation of BCIs was performed including the identification of their advantages and disadvantages. The program that allows you to choose the desired stimulus from a variety of presented was developed.An electroencephalograph of the BiTronics Lab company on the Arduino platform was used to receive the signal. Signal filtering, classifier training and visualization are implemented in Python.

Purpose. Analyze the effectiveness of using wavelet analysis to assess the quality of metal surfaces. Investigate the possibility of using wavelet analysis in ultrasonic flaw detection. Determine the optimal wavelet families and their criteria for assessing the quality of metal surface processing. Research methods. Orthogonal wavelets are considered: Daubechies wavelet, Simlet wavelet and Coiflet wavelet, which provide the possibility of performing a discrete wavelet transform procedure. The criteria influencing the effectiveness of ultrasonic signal filtering by methods using wavelet analysis are considered. Ultrasonic signals were filtered using wavelet functions. Results. It has been determined that for successful signal filtering, the selected wavelet method must provide a discrete wavelet transformation and have a similarity in the wavelet function shape in the local features of the ultrasonic signals flaw detector. During the work, a rigid threshold for limiting the detail coefficients of wavelet analysis was chosen, as it is the best for filtering tasks. The filtering efficiency is confirmed by the relatively high signal to noise ratio, as well as by the fact that the shape of the pulse extracted from the defect remained almost unchanged. Scientific novelty.  When using the Daubechies and Coiflet wavelets as basic functions, as a result of wavelet filtering, it was possible to increase the signal to noise ratio by 20 dB and confidently isolate the useful signal against the background noise, which indicates the prospects of using this kind of transformations in filtering problems. Practical value. The obtained solutions can be used for implementation in signal filtering algorithms in digital processing units of automated non-destructive ultrasonic control systems.

Broiler sounds can provide feedback on their own body condition, to a certain extent. Aiming at the noise in the sound signals collected in broiler farms, research on evaluating the filtering methods for broiler sound signals from multiple perspectives is proposed, and the best performer can be obtained for broiler sound signal filtering. Multiple perspectives include the signal angle and the recognition angle, which are embodied in three indicators: signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), root mean square error (RMSE), and prediction accuracy. The signal filtering methods used in this study include Basic Spectral Subtraction, Improved Spectral Subtraction based on multi-taper spectrum estimation, Wiener filtering and Sparse Decomposition using both thirty atoms and fifty atoms. In analysis of the signal angle, Improved Spectral Subtraction based on multi-taper spectrum estimation achieved the highest average SNR of 5.5145 and achieved the smallest average RMSE of 0.0508. In analysis of the recognition angle, the kNN classifier and Random Forest classifier achieved the highest average prediction accuracy on the data set established from the sound signals filtered by Wiener filtering, which were 88.83% and 88.69%, respectively. These are significantly higher than those obtained by classifiers on data sets established from sound signals filtered by other methods. Further research shows that after removing the starting noise in the sound signal, Wiener filtering achieved the highest average SNR of 5.6108 and a new RMSE of 0.0551. Finally, in comprehensive analysis of both the signal angle and the recognition angle, this research determined that Wiener filtering is the best broiler sound signal filtering method. This research lays the foundation for follow-up research on extracting classification features from high-quality broiler sound signals to realize broiler health monitoring. At the same time, the research results can be popularized and applied to studies on the detection and processing of livestock and poultry sound signals, which has extremely important reference and practical value.
