Tensor product multiresolution analysis with error control for compact image representation
2002
A class of multiresolution representations based on nonlinear prediction is studied in the multivariate context based on tensor product strategies. In contrast to standard linear wavelet transforms, these representations cannot be thought of as a change of basis, and the error induced by thresholding or quantizing the coefficients requires a different analysis. We propose specific error control algorithms which ensure a prescribed accuracy in various norms when performing such operations on the coefficients. These algorithms are compared with standard thresholding, for synthetic and real images.
On approximate-type systems generated by L-relations
2014
The aim of this work is to study approximate-type systems induced by L-relations in the framework of the general theory of M-approximate systems introduced in [42] and its generalizations. Special attention is payed to the structural properties of lattices of such systems and to the study of connections between categories of such systems and the corresponding categories of sets endowed with L-relations.
Ranking fuzzy interval numbers in the setting of random sets – further results
1999
Abstract We present some new properties of several fuzzy order relations, defined on the set of fuzzy numbers, from among those introduced in [S. Chanas, M. Delgado, J.L. Verdegay, M.A. Vila, Information Sciences 69 (1993) 201–217]. The main result is proving that four from among the relations considered in [S. Chanas, M. Delgado, J.L. Verdegay, M.A. Vila, Information Sciences 69 (1993) 201–217] are strongly transitive (s-transitive).
A Coupled Fixed Point Theorem in Fuzzy Metric Space Satisfying ϕ-Contractive Condition
2013
The intent of this paper is to prove a coupled fixed point theorem for two pairs of compatible and subsequentially continuous (alternately subcompatible and reciprocally continuous) mappings, satisfyingϕ-contractive conditions in a fuzzy metric space. We also furnish some illustrative examples to support our results.
Validation of a New Method for the Diagnosis of Rotor bar Failures via Wavelet Transformation in Industrial Induction Machines
2006
[EN] In this paper, the authors propose a method for the diagnosis of rotor bar failures in induction machines, based on the analysis of the stator current during the startup using the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Unlike other approaches, the study of the high-order wavelet signals resulting from the decomposition is the core of the proposed method. After an introduction of the physical and mathematical bases of the method, a description of the proposed approach is given; for this purpose, a numerical model of induction machine is used in such a way that the effects of a bar breakage can clearly be shown, avoiding the influence of other phenomena not related with the fault. Afterward, …
The Use of the Wavelet Approximation Signal as a Tool for the Diagnosis of Rotor Bar Failures
2005
[EN] The aim of this paper is to present a new approach for rotor bar failure diagnosis in induction machines. The method focuses on the study of an approximation signal resulting from the wavelet decomposition of the startup stator current. The presence of the left sideband harmonic is used as evidence of the rotor failure in most diagnosis methods based on the analysis of the stator current. Thus, a detailed description of the evolution of the left sideband harmonic during the startup transient is given in this paper; for this purpose, a method for calculating the evolution of the left sideband during the startup is developed, and its results are physically explained. This paper also show…
Real-Time Implementation of Signal Processing Techniques for Disturbances Detection
2019
The real-time analysis of power quality (PQ) disturbances and islanding detection for distributed generation (DG) system using signal processing algorithms are still at a premature stage. Quick and reliable detection of islanding and PQ disturbances needs renewed focus. This paper is concentrated on the implementation of advanced signal processing techniques in field-programmable gate array (FPGA) to identify PQ and islanding events in real time. The proposed scheme is based on orthogonal empirical mode decomposition (OEMD) implemented in FPGA. This technique does not suffer from the loss of signal characteristics with successive decomposition levels. The performance of said technique is de…
Application of principal component analysis and wavelet transform to fatigue crack detection in waveguides
2010
Ultrasonic Guided Waves (UGWs) are a useful tool in structural health monitoring (SHM) applications that can benefit from built-in transduction, moderately large inspection ranges and high sensitivity to small flaws. This paper describes a SHM method based on UGWs, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), and principal component analysis (PCA) able to detect and quantify the onset and propagation of fatigue cracks in structural waveguides. The method combines the advantages of guided wave signals processed through the DWT with the outcomes of selecting defect-sensitive features to perform a multivariate diagnosis of damage. This diagnosis is based on the PCA. The framework presented in this paper …
Robust stabilisation of 2D state-delayed stochastic systems with randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities
2013
This paper is concerned with the state feedback control problem for a class of two-dimensional (2D) discrete-time stochastic systems with time-delays, randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities. Both the sector-like nonlinearities and the norm-bounded uncertainties enter into the system in random ways, and such randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities obey certain mutually uncorrelated Bernoulli random binary distribution laws. Sufficient computationally tractable linear matrix inequality–based conditions are established for the 2D nonlinear stochastic time-delay systems to be asymptotically stable in the mean-square sense, and then the explicit expression of the desired…
An Integrated System for Efficient Management of Distribution Networks: The System's Architecture and the Telecommunication Infrastructure
2006
Modern distribution systems must keep up with high power quality standards due to the new regulations of the European Community and of the different national legislations. Efficient faults management is one of the basic tasks utilities must accomplish and this objective can be attained if and only if automation is present and efficient diagnostic procedures have been implemented in the centralized or distributed units all over the network. In this paper, the architecture of an integrated system for management of modern distribution systems is presented. The system includes routines for normal on-line optimal operation of distribution systems and for outage management, the latter including f…
