Region of interest detection using MLP

2014

A novel technique to detect regions of interest in a time series as deviation from the characteristic behavior is proposed. The deterministic form of a signal is obtained using a reliably trained MLP neural network with detailed complexity management and cross-validation based generalization assurance. The proposed technique is demonstrated with simulated and real data. peerReviewed

Acoustic detection and classification of river boats

2011

We present a robust algorithm to detect the arrival of a boat of a certain type when other background noises are present. It is done via the analysis of its acoustic signature against an existing database of recorded and processed acoustic signals. We characterize the signals by the distribution of their energies among blocks of wavelet packet coefficients. To derive the acoustic signature of the boat of interest, we use the Best Discriminant Basis method. The decision is made by combining the answers from the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) classifier and from the Classification and Regression Trees (CART) that is also accompanied with an additional unit, called Aisles, that reduces fal…

Context-sensitive framework for visual analytics in energy production from biomass

2014

Data masses require a lot of data processing. Data mining is the traditional way to convert data into knowledge. In visual analytics, humans are integrated into the process as there is continuous interaction between the analyst and the analysis software. Data mining methods can be utilized also in visual analytics where the priority is given to the visualization of the information and to dimension reduction. However, the provided data is not always enough. There is a large amount of background contextual information, which should be included into the automated process. This paper describes a context-sensitive approach, in which we utilize visual analytics by studying all phases in the proce…
