Concrete Damage Identification based on Acoustic Emission and Wavelet Neural Network

In order to improve the accuracy of damage source identification in concrete based on acoustic emission testing (AE) and neural networks, and locating and repairing the damage in a practical roller compacted concrete (RCC) dam, a multilevel AE processing platform based on wavelet energy spectrum analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), and a neural network is proposed. Two data sets of 15 basic AE parameters and 23 AE parameters added on the basis of the 15 basic AE parameters were selected as the input vectors of a basic parameter neural network and a wavelet neural network, respectively. Taking the measured tensile data of an RCC prism sample as an example, the results show that compared with the basic parameter neural network, the wavelet neural network achieves a higher accuracy and faster damage source identification, with an average recognition rate of 8.2% and training speed of about 33%.

Internal model control for rocket launcher position servo system based on improved wavelet neural network

This paper proposes an improved wavelet neural network-internal model controller (WNN-IMC) for the rocket launcher position servo system. Due to complex nonlinearities and uncertainties of external disturbances in the rocket launcher position servo system, it is vitally challenging to establish its accurate model by the mechanical modeling technique. A wavelet neural network (WNN) identification method is proposed to determine the system mathematical model through test datum, which optimized by the hybrid algorithm of differential evolution (DE) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Then, the proposed method is applied to identify the semi-physical simulation platform of the rocket launcher velocity servo system. The results demonstrate that the validity of the DEPSO-WNN method is better than that of the WNN and PSO-WNN methods. Finally, compared with the WNN-IMC controller and the ADRC controller, the effectiveness of the improved WNN-IMC controller is verified by the semi-physical simulation experiments.

Predictive Error Compensating Wavelet Neural Network Model for Multivariable Time Series Prediction

Multivariable machine learning (ML) models are increasingly used for time series predictions. However, avoiding the overfitting and underfitting in ML-based time series prediction requires special consideration depending on the size and characteristics of the available training dataset. Predictive error compensating wavelet neural network (PEC-WNN) improves the time series prediction accuracy by enhancing the orthogonal features within a data fusion scheme. In this study, time series prediction performance of the PEC-WNNs have been evaluated on two different problems in comparison to conventional machine learning methods including the long short-term memory (LSTM) network. The results have shown that PECNET provides significantly more accurate predictions. RMSPE error is reduced by more than 60% with respect to other compared ML methods for Lorenz Attractor and wind speed prediction problems.

Demodulation of EM Telemetry Data Using Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Network with Logistic Response

Data telemetry is a critical element of successful unconventional well drilling operations, involving the transmission of information about the well-surrounding geology to the surface in real-time to serve as the basis for geosteering and well planning. However, the data extraction and code recovery (demodulation) process can be a complicated system due to the non-linear and time-varying characteristics of high amplitude surface noise. In this work, a novel model fuzzy wavelet neural network (FWNN) that combines the advantages of the sigmoidal logistic function, fuzzy logic, a neural network, and wavelet transform was established for the prediction of the transmitted signal code from borehole to surface with effluent quality. Moreover, the complete workflow involved the pre-processing of the dataset via an adaptive processing technique before training the network and a logistic response algorithm for acquiring the optimal parameters for the prediction of signal codes. A data reduction and subtractive scheme are employed as a pre-processing technique to better characterize the signals as eight attributes and, ultimately, reduce the computation cost. Furthermore, the frequency-time characteristics of the predicted signal are controlled by selecting an appropriate number of wavelet bases “N” and the pre-selected range for pij3 to be used prior to the training of the FWNN system. The results, leading to the prediction of the BPSK characteristics, indicate that the pre-selection of the N value and pij3 range provides a significantly accurate prediction. We validate its prediction on both synthetic and pseudo-synthetic datasets. The results indicated that the fuzzy wavelet neural network with logistic response had a high operation speed and good quality prediction, and the correspondingly trained model was more advantageous than the traditional backward propagation network in prediction accuracy. The proposed model can be used for analyzing signals with a signal-to-noise ratio lower than 1 dB effectively, which plays an important role in the electromagnetic telemetry system.

Analysis and Application of intelligent Power Control System Cyber Security Situation Awareness Based on Wavelet Neural Network

In recent years, international industrial control network security incidents have occurred frequently. As a core component of the industrial control field, intelligent power control systems are increasingly threatened by external network attacks. Based on the current research status of power industrial control network security, closely combining the development of active monitoring and defense technology in the public network field and the problems encountered by network security operators in actual work, this paper uses data mining methods to study the power control system network security situation awareness technology. Combing operational data collection and integrated processing, situation index screening and extraction, we use wavelet neural network analysis method to train the sampled data set, and finally calculate the true value of the network security status through deep intelligent learning. Finally, we conclude that the artificial intelligence algorithm based on wavelet neural network can be used for power control system network security situation awareness. In actual work, it can predict the situation value for a period of time in the future and assist network security personnel in judgment and decision-making.
