Induction motors play an increasing importance in industrial manufacturing. Therefore, the state monitoring systems also have been considering as the key in dealing with their negative effect by absorbing faulty symptoms in motors. There are numerous proposed systems in literature, in which, several kinds of signals are utilized as the input. To solve the multiple faults problem of induction motors, like the proposed system, the vibration signals is good candidate. In this study, a new signal processing scheme was utilized, which transforms the time domain vibration signal into the spatial domain as an image. Then the spatial features of converted image then have been extracted by applying the dominant neighbourhood structure (DNS) algorithm. In addition, these feature vectors were evaluated to obtain the fruitful dimensions, which support to discriminate between states of motors. Because of reliability, the conventional one-against-all (OAA) multi-class support vector machines (MCSVM) have been utilized in the proposed system as classifier module. Even though examined in severity levels of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), up to 15dB, the proposed system still reliable in term of two criteria: true positive (TF) and false positive (FP). Furthermore, it also offers better performance than five state-of-the-art systems.

When abnormal events occur in a nuclear power plant, operators must conduct appropriate abnormal operating procedures. It is burdensome though for operators to choose the appropriate procedure considering the numerous main plant parameters and hundreds of alarms that should be judged in a short time. Recently, various research has applied deep-learning algorithms to support this problem by classifying each abnormal condition with high accuracy. Most of these models are trained with simulator data because of a lack of plant data for abnormal states, and as such, developed models may not have tolerance for plant data in actual situations. In this study, two approaches are investigated for a deep-learning model trained with simulator data to overcome the performance degradation caused by noise in actual plant data. First, a preprocessing method using several filters was employed to smooth the test data noise, and second, a data augmentation method was applied to increase the acceptability of the untrained data. Results of this study confirm that the combination of these two approaches can enable high model performance even in the presence of noisy data as in real plants.

Identification of asymmetry and anisotropy of rotor system is important for diagnosis of rotating machinery. Directional frequency response functions (dFRFs) are known to be a powerful tool in effectively detecting the presence of asymmetry or anisotropy. In this paper, an input noise effect of dFRFs for rotors is estimated, when both asymmetry and anisotropy are present. The normalized random errors of the dFRFs are calculated to verify the validity of the method, which is demonstrated by numerical simulation with a simple rotor model.

The signals that can be obtained from a rotating machine often convey the information of machine. For example, if the machine under investigation has faults, then we can measure the signal which has a pulse train, embedded in noise. Therefore the ability to detect the fault signal in noise determines the degree of diagnosis level of rotating machine. In this paper, minimum variance cepstrum (MV cepstrum), which can easily detect impulse in noise, has been applied to detect the type of faults of ball bearing system. To test the performance of this technique, experiment has been performed for ball bearing elements that have man made faults. Results show that minimum variance cepstrum can easily detect the periodicity due to faults.

Electrocardiogram(ECG) signal noise as well as conducting other bio-signal measurement were generated. It was intened to enhance the accuracy of cadiac disease diagnosis with removing signal white-noise. Sampling signal was made with generating white-noise. The noise were removed using wavelet transforms and thresholding. Removed noise were compared numerical using SNR(signal to noise ratio). The results compared SNR showed that SURE method was 5.931, 4.9301 in 3, 5dB noise, uninversal was 3.6590, 1.9698 in 7, 9dB noise. De-noising by Thresholding removed noise effectively. ECG signal is expected to improve the accuracy of cadiac desease dianosis.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to detect movement noise in PPG(Photoplethysmography) measurements. Movement noise significantly deteriorate PPG signals in measurement, so that a movement noise detection algorithm is critical before using measured PPG signals for applications such as diagnosis. To detect movement noise, we apply wavelet transform to PPG signals instead of short-time Fourier transform and decide if the measured signlas include movement noise. To that end, we adaptively choose a wavelet, which is the most similar to the subject's PPG pattern. In the case when movement noise is intentionally added in the 20% and 30% of the total experiment time, our algorithm detects time-slots including movement and outperforms previous works.

Digital images are easily corrupted by noise during the data transmission, data capture and data processing. A technical method of noise analyzing and adaptive filtering for reducing of quantum noise in medical radio-fluoroscopy images is presented. By adjusting the characteristics of the filter according to local statistics around each pixel of the image as moving windowing, it is possible to suppress noise sufficiently while preserve edge and other significant information required in diagnosis. We proposed adaptive weighed median(AWM) filters based on local statistics. We showed two ways of realizing the AWM filters. One is a simple type of AWM filter, which is constructed by Homogeneous factor(HF). Homogeneous factor(HF) from the noise models that enables the filter to recognize the local structures of the image is introduced, and an algorithm for determining the HF fitted to the diagnostic systems with various inner statistical properties is proposed. We show by the experimented that the performances of proposed method is superior to these of other filters and models in preserving small details and suppressing the noise at homogeneous region. The proposed algorithms were implemented by Visual C++ language on a IBM-PC Pentium 550 for testing purposes and the effects and results of the filter in the various levels of noise and images were proposed by comparing the values of NMSE(normalized mean square error) with the value of the other existing filtering methods.

In the field of Radiology, the Computer Aided Diagnosis is the technology which gives valuable information for surgical purpose. For its importance, several computer vison methods are processed to obtain useful information of images acquired from the imaging devices such as X-ray, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT). These methods, called pattern recognition, extract features from images and feed them to some machine learning algorithm to find out meaningful patterns. Then the learned machine is then used for exploring patterns from unseen images. The radiologist can therefore easily find the information used for surgical planning or diagnosis of a patient through the Computer Aided Diagnosis. In this paper, we present a review on three widely-used methods applied to Computer Aided Diagnosis. The first one is the image processing methods which enhance meaningful information such as edge and remove the noise. Based on the improved image quality, we explain the second method called segmentation which separates the image into a set of regions. The separated regions such as bone, tissue, organs are then delivered to machine learning algorithms to extract representative information. We expect that this paper gives readers basic knowledges of the Computer Aided Diagnosis and intuition about computer vision methods applied in this area.

We propose an ultrashort pulse optical code-division multiple-access (O-CDMA) scheme based on a pseudorandom binary M-sequence spectral phase encoding and decoding of coherent mode-locked laser pulses and perform a numerical simulation to analyze its feasibility. We demonstrate the ability to properly decode any of the multiple (eight) 10 Gbit/s users by the matched code selection of the spectral phase decoder. The peak power signal to noise ratio of properly and improperly decoded $8{\times}10 Gb/s$ signals could be greater than 15 for 127 M-sequence coding.
