  • The Hotelling transform is based on statistical properties of an image. The principal uses of this transform are in data compression. The basic concept of the Hotelling transform is that the choice of basis vectors pointing the direction of maximum variance of the data. This property can be used for rotation normalization. Many objects of interest in pattern recognition applications can be easily standardized by performing a rotation normalization that aligns the coordinate axes with the axes of maximum variance of the pixels in the object. However, this transform can not be used to rotation normalization of color images directly. In this paper, we propose a new method for rotation normalization of color images based on the Hotelling transform. The Hotelling transform is performed to calculate basis vectors of each channel. Then the summation of vectors of all channels are processed. Rotation normalization is performed using the result of summation of vectors. Experimental results showed the proposed method can be used for rotation normalization of color images effectively.

  • It is shown that the multiscale prewhitening matched filter for detecting Gaussian objects in Markov noise can be implemented by the undecimated wavelet transform with a biorthogonal spline wavelet. If the object to be detected is Gaussian shaped and its scale coincides with one of those computed by the wavelet transform, and if the background noise is truly Markov, then optimum detection is realized by thresholding the appropriate details image. Our detection algorithm is applied to the digitized mammograms for detecting microcalcifications. However, microcalcifications are not exactly Gaussian shaped and its background noise may not be Markov. In order to campensate for these discrepancy, Hotelling observer is employed, which is applied to feature vectors comprised of 3-octave wavelet coefficients.

  • Fault detection of cycle-based signals is typically performed using statistical approaches. Univariate SPC using few representative statistics and multivariate analysis methods such as PCA and PLS are the most popular methods for analyzing cycle-based signals. However, such approaches are limited when dealing with information-rich cycle-based signals. In this paper, process fault defection method based on wavelet analysis is proposed. Using Haar wavelet, coefficients that well reflect the process condition are selected. Next, Hotelling's $T^2$ chart using selected coefficients is constructed for assessment of process condition. To enhance the overall efficiency of fault detection, the following two steps are suggested, i.e. denoising method based on wavelet transform and coefficient selection methods using variance difference. For performance evaluation, various types of abnormal process conditions are simulated and the proposed algorithm is compared with other methodologies.

  • Vibration-based fault detection and condition monitoring of rotating machinery, using statistical process control (SPC) combined with statistical pattern recognition methodology, has been widely investigated by many researchers. In particular, the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is considered as a powerful tool for feature extraction in detecting fault on rotating machinery. Although DWT significantly reduces the dimensionality of the data, the number of retained wavelet features can still be significantly large. Then, the use of standard multivariate SPC techniques is not advised, because the sample covariance matrix is likely to be singular, so that the common multivariate statistics cannot be calculated. Even though many feature-based SPC methods have been introduced to tackle this deficiency, most methods require a parametric distributional assumption that restricts their feasibility to specific problems of process control, and thus limit their application. This study proposes a nonparametric multivariate control chart method, based on multiscale wavelet scalogram (MWS) features, that overcomes the limitation posed by the parametric assumption in existing SPC methods. The presented approach takes advantage of multi-resolution analysis using DWT, and obtains MWS features with significantly low dimensionality. We calculate Hotelling's $T^2$-type monitoring statistic using MWS, which has enough damage-discrimination ability. A bootstrap approach is used to determine the upper control limit of the monitoring statistic, without any distributional assumption. Numerical simulations demonstrate the performance of the proposed control charting method, under various damage-level scenarios for a bearing system.
