Research On Arc Fault Detection Using Morlet Wavelet Features And ResNet

Series arc fault is the main cause of electrical fire in low-voltage distribution system. A fast and accurate detection system can reduce the risk of fire effectively. In this paper, series arc experiment is carried out for different kinds of electrical load. The time-domain current is analyzed by Morlet wavelet. Then, the multiscale wavelet coefficients are expressed as the coefficient matrix. We use HSV color index to map the coefficient matrix to the phase space image. Random gamma transform and random rotation are applied to data enhancement. Finally, typical deep residual network (ResNet) is established for image recognition. Training results show that this method can detect faults in real time. The accuracy of ResNet50 is 96.53% by using the data set in this paper.

A wavelet features derived radiomics nomogram for prediction of malignant and benign early-stage lung nodules

This study was to develop a radiomics nomogram mainly using wavelet features for identifying malignant and benign early-stage lung nodules for high-risk screening. A total of 116 patients with early-stage solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) (≤ 3 cm) were divided into a training set (N = 70) and a validation set (N = 46). Radiomics features were extracted from plain LDCT images of each patient. A radiomics signature was then constructed with the LASSO with the training set. Combined with independent risk factors, a radiomics nomogram was built with a multivariate logistic regression model. This radiomics signature, consisting of one original and nine wavelet features, achieved favorable predictive efficacy than Mayo Clinic Model. The radiomics nomogram with radiomics signature and age also showed good calibration and discrimination in the training set (AUC 0.9406; 95% CI 0.8831–0.9982) and the validation set (AUC 0.8454; 95% CI 0.7196–0.9712). The decision curve indicated the clinical usefulness of our nomogram. The presented radiomics nomogram shows favorable predictive accuracy for identifying malignant and benign lung nodules in early-stage patients and is much better than the Mayo Clinic Model.

Detection of Fusarium Head Blight in Wheat Ears Using Continuous Wavelet Analysis and PSO-SVM

Fusarium head blight, caused by a fungus, can cause quality deterioration and severe yield loss in wheat. It produces highly toxic deoxynivalenol, which is harmful to human and animal health. In order to quickly and accurately detect the severity of fusarium head blight, a method of detecting the disease using continuous wavelet analysis and particle swarm optimization support vector machines (PSO-SVM) is proposed in this paper. First, seven wavelet features for fusarium head blight detection were extracted using continuous wavelet analysis based on the hyperspectral reflectance of wheat ears. In addition, 16 traditional spectral features were selected using correlation analysis, including two continuous removal transformed spectral features, six differential spectral features, and eight vegetation indices. Finally, wavelet features and traditional spectral features were used as input features to construct fusarium head blight detection models in combination with the PSO-SVM algorithm, and the results were compared with those obtained using random forest (RF) and a back propagation neural network (BPNN). The results show that, under the same feature variables, the PSO-SVM detection method gave an overall higher accuracy than the BPNN detection method, while the overall accuracy of the RF detection model was the lowest. The overall accuracy of the RF, BPNN and PSO-SVM detection models with wavelet features was higher by 3.7%, 2.9% and 8.3% compared to the corresponding methodological models with traditional spectral features. The detection model with wavelet features combining the PSO-SVM algorithm gave the highest overall accuracies (93.5%) and kappa coefficients (0.903) in the six monitoring models. These results suggest that the PSO-SVM algorithm combined with continuous wavelet analysis can significantly improve the accuracy of fusarium head blight detection on the wheat ears scale.

Multiple Sclerosis Recognition by Biorthogonal Wavelet Features and Fitness-Scaled Adaptive Genetic Algorithm

Aim: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease, which can affect the brain and/or spinal cord, leading to a wide range of potential symptoms. This method aims to propose a novel MS recognition method.Methods: First, the bior4.4 wavelet is used to extract multiscale coefficients. Second, three types of biorthogonal wavelet features are proposed and calculated. Third, fitness-scaled adaptive genetic algorithm (FAGA)—a combination of standard genetic algorithm, adaptive mechanism, and power-rank fitness scaling—is harnessed as the optimization algorithm. Fourth, multiple-way data augmentation is utilized on the training set under the setting of 10 runs of 10-fold cross-validation. Our method is abbreviated as BWF-FAGA.Results: Our method achieves a sensitivity of 98.00 ± 0.95%, a specificity of 97.78 ± 0.95%, and an accuracy of 97.89 ± 0.94%. The area under the curve of our method is 0.9876.Conclusion: The results show that the proposed BWF-FAGA method is better than 10 state-of-the-art MS recognition methods, including eight artificial intelligence-based methods, and two deep learning-based methods.
