为探究环境因素对毒气扩散危害程度的影响,通过对比有限空间内外环境差异,了解气体在有限空间内受力情况,并以传统高斯烟羽模型为基础,考虑扩散气体与有限空间边界碰撞产生的反射作用,建立了适用于有限空间气体扩散的改进高斯烟羽模型。深度剖析有限空间气体扩散环境,挖掘气体扩散主要关联因子,构建风速、地表粗糙度对有限空间气体扩散的影响函数;参照有限空间环境特征,分别设置3种不同风速与2种不同地表粗糙度,推求6种不同环境条件下气体扩散面积,阐明风速与地表粗糙度对有限空间气体扩散的影响程度。结果表明:在单一风速条件下,风速越高,地表粗糙度越低,洞室内H2S气体滞留时间越短,洞室内气体的扩散面积越小;风速越低,地表粗糙度越高,洞室内气体的扩散面积越大。     

Weighted preliminary-summation-based principal component analysis for non-Gaussian processes

For industrial chemical process, preliminary-summation-based principal component analysis (PS-PCA), an amended PCA method was recently provided for coping with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian characteristics. By summing the training and monitoring data respectively, PS-PCA is capable of resolving the issue of non-Gaussian processes and achieves higher fault detection rate than the traditional PCA. However, in the PS-PCA summation operation, all data samples are regarded as the same weight, which results in the fault information of newly-samples may be diluted, leading to significant detection delays. To address this challenge, in this paper, we propose a novel weighted PS-PCA (WPS-PCA) method that employs an exponential weighting scheme to put more emphasis on recent information. Subsequently, a mathematical argument demonstrates that when the number of variables is enough plentiful, the obtained summation combined with the generalized central limit theorem conforms to approximately a Gaussian distribution. The kurtosis relationships indicate this conversion will bring out well-pleasing feasibility for conventional PCA. Ultimately, the proposed technique verifies detection performance using the Tennessee Eastman process, which is compared with the existing PCA and PS-PCA schemes, in terms of the fault detection time and fault detection rate. The simulation studies reveal that the proposed method is efficient and superior.     

Simultaneous identification of structural stiffness and mass parameters based on Bare-bones Gaussian Tree Seeds Algorithm using time-domain data

This paper mainly illustrates the Tree Seeds Algorithm (TSA) to tackle structural damage identification problem. The damage model is simulated by the alterations of both stiffness and mass parameters. The objective function is introduced by minimizing the differences between the measured and calculated acceleration data. To enhance the performance of the standard TSA, two modifications including the bare-bones Gaussian updated mechanism and the withering process are introduced. The modified algorithm is named after the BGTSA. In the numerical simulation part, the BGTSA is firstly used to make comparisons with several state-of-the-art algorithms on the CEC05. Secondly, the BGTSA is utilized to deal with the structural damage identification problem by optimizing the acceleration-based nonlinear objective function. Numerical experiments involving a simply supported beam and a truss are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The final results show that with low amount of acceleration data, the BGTSA can acquire better identification results compared with other evolutionary algorithms. Therefore the proposed algorithm could be viewed as a potential tool to solve the structural damage identification problem.

An enhancement algorithm based on adaptive updating template with Gaussian model for Si3N4 ceramic bearing roller surface defects detection

The method based on machine vision image processing is used to detect the surface defects of Si₃N₄ bearing roller. Owing to the variety of defects, small area and low contrast, it is easy to miss or error detection. In this paper, an adaptive update template defect enhancement algorithm based on Gaussian model is proposed. First, a large number of surface images of Si₃N₄ bearing roller are collected to obtain the non-defect background statistical feature, and the background characteristic curve is fitted by Gaussian model. Further, the initial background template is gained according to the Gaussian curve. Then, combined with the gray distribute of defect images and initial background template, unique adaptive update template can be established. Finally, subtraction operation and nonlinear enhancement are used to improve the comparison of defect information and background. Through inverse sorting, adaptive threshold segmentation and Canny operation, the precise positioning of defects is realized. The enhancement algorithm can effectively enhance the contrast and eliminate the influence of noise. The average detection time is 0.84s, and the detection accuracy is 96.2%.     

基于声发射和高斯混合模型的灰岩破裂特征识别研究

通过单轴压缩条件下灰岩破裂过程的声发射试验研究,利用高斯混合模型(GMM)对加载过程声发射信号波形特征进行深入分析,探索性识别灰岩破裂失稳过程的裂纹模式及其前兆特征。分析结果表明,灰岩在单轴加载过程中先后主要存在张拉和剪切两种破裂模式。其中,张拉破裂的声发射信号波形特征在AF-RA坐标空间呈现低A_F值、高R_A值分布;剪切破裂的声发射信号波形特征在AF-RA坐标空间呈现低R_A值、高A_F值,且随着应力的增加分布中心向A_F轴靠拢。GMM分析结果揭示了灰岩在整个应力加载过程中以张拉裂纹为主,在加载前中期几乎全为张拉裂纹,临近破坏阶段过渡到剪切破坏为主。剪切裂纹所占比例的最大值出现在(0.8～0.9)σ_c阶段,也是AF-RA坐标轴分布呈现最大A_F值时。研究结果可为预测早期灰岩破裂失稳提供参考,同时为深入研究识别岩石破裂失稳前兆信号特征提供了一种分析方法。

A one-class peeling method for multivariate outlier detection with applications in phase I SPC

In phase I of statistical process control (SPC), control charts are often used as outlier detection methods to assess process stability. Many of these methods require estimation of the covariance matrix, are computationally infeasible, or have not been studied when the dimension of the data, $p$, is large. We propose the one-class peeling (OCP) method, a flexible framework that combines statistical and machine learning methods to detect multiple outliers in multivariate data. The OCP method can be applied to phase I of SPC, does not require covariance estimation, and is well suited to high-dimensional data sets with a high percentage of outliers. Our empirical evaluation suggests that the OCP method performs well in high dimensions and is computationally more efficient and robust than existing methodologies. We motivate and illustrate the use of the OCP method in a phase I SPC application on a $N=354$, $p=1917$ dimensional data set containing Wikipedia search results for National Football League (NFL) players, teams, coaches, and managers. The example data set and R functions, OCP.R and OCPLimit.R, to compute the respective OCP distances and thresholds are available in the supplementary materials.     

Bayesian Nonparametric Joint Mixture Model for Clustering Spatially Correlated Time Series

Abstract

We develop a Bayesian nonparametric joint mixture model for clustering spatially correlated time series based on both spatial and temporal similarities. In the temporal perspective, the pattern of a time series is flexibly modeled as a mixture of Gaussian processes, with a Dirichlet process (DP) prior over mixture components. In the spatial perspective, the spatial location is incorporated as a feature for clustering, like a time series being incorporated as a feature. Namely, we model the spatial distribution of each cluster as a DP Gaussian mixture density. For the proposed model, the number of clusters does not need to be specified in advance, but rather is automatically determined during the clustering procedure. Moreover, the spatial distribution of each cluster can be flexibly modeled with multiple modes, without determining the number of modes or specifying spatial neighborhood structures in advance. Variational inference is employed for the efficient posterior computation of the proposed model. We validate the proposed model using simulated and real-data examples. Supplementary materials for the article are available online.
