The main concept of analysis is that after wavelet transformation, multifractal spectrum of the signal is different from that of noise. This difference is used to alleviate the noise produced by SAR image.The method to denoise SAR image using the process based on wavelet-fractai analysis is discussed in detail. Essentially, the present method focuses on adjusting the Hoelder exponent α of multifractal spectrum. After simulation, α should be adjusted to 1.72-1.73. The more the value of α exceeds 1.73, the less distinctive the edges of SAR image become. According to the authors denoising is optimal at α=1.72-1.73. In other words, when α =1.72-1.73, a smooth and denoised SAR image is produced.展开更多

It is difficult to extract vortex frequencies which indicate volumetric flowrate from noisy data, especially at low flowrates. Hilbert-Huang transform was adopted to estimate vortex frequency. The noisy raw signal was decomposed into different intrinsic modes by empirical mode decomposition, the time-frequency characteristics of each mode were analyzed, and the vortex frequency was obtained by calculating partial mode’s instantaneous frequency. Experimental results show that the proposed method can estimate the vortex frequency with less than 2% relative error; and in the low flowrate range studied, the denoising ability of Hilbert-Huang transform is markedly better than Fourier based algorithms. These findings reveal that this method is accurate for vortex signal processing and at the same time has strong anti-disturbance ability.展开更多

This signifies the necessity of denoising of the observed profile. Considering that the ultimate goal of denoising is to enhance the pulse phase estimation, a profile denoising algorithm is proposed by fusing the biorthogonal lifting wavelet transform of the linear phase characteristic with the thresholding technique. The statistical properties of X-ray background noise after epoch folding are studied. Then a wavelet-scale dependent threshold is introduced to overcome correlations between wavelet coefficients. Moreover, a modified hyperbola shrinking function is presented to remove the impulsive oscillations of the observed profile. The results of numerical simulations and real data experiments indicate that the proposed method can effectively improve SNR of the observed profile and pulse phase estimation accuracy, especially in short observation durations. And it also outperforms the Donoho thresholding strategy normally used in combination with the orthogonal discrete wavelet transform.展开更多

The rolling element bearing IRF can be accurately estimated according to the instantaneous fault characteristic frequency(IFCF). However, in an environment with a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), e.g., an incipient fault or function at a low speed, the signal contains strong background noise that seriously affects the effectiveness of the aforementioned method. An algorithm of signal preprocessing based on empirical mode decomposition(EMD) and wavelet shrinkage was proposed in this work. Compared with EMD denoising by the cross-correlation coefficient and kurtosis(CCK) criterion, the method of EMD soft-thresholding(ST) denoising can ensure the integrity of the signal, improve the SNR, and highlight fault features. The effectiveness of the algorithm for rolling element bearing IRF estimation by EMD ST denoising and the IFCF was validated by both simulated and experimental bearing vibration signals at a low SNR.展开更多

The estimated noise variance is applied as the threshold for an improved empirical mode decomposition（EMD） based signal denoising method. The proposed estimation method can effectively extract the candidate regions for the noise level estimation by measuring the correlation coefficient between noisy signal and a Gaussian filtered signal. For the improved EMD based method, the situation of decomposed intrinsic mode function（IMFs） which contains noise and signal simultaneously are taken into account. Experimental results from two simulated signals and an X-ray pulsar signal demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than the conventional EMD and wavelet transform（WT） based denoising methods.展开更多

To solve the questions, a blind denoising method basedon single-wavelet transform and multiwavelets transform was proposed. The method doesn’t depend onsize of image and deviation to determine threshold of wavelet coefficients, which is different from classicalsoft-threshold denoising in wavelet domain. Moreover, the method is good for many types of noise. Gibbseffect disappeared with this method, edges of image are preserved well, and noise is smoothed andrestrained effectively.展开更多

文摘Due to the complexity of marine environment,underwater acoustic signal will be affected by complex background noise during transmission.Underwater acoustic signal denoising is always a difficult problem in underwater acoustic signal processing.To obtain a better denoising effect,a new denoising method of underwater acoustic signal based on optimized variational mode decomposition by black widow optimization algorithm(BVMD),fluctuation-based dispersion entropy threshold improved by Otsu method(OFDE),cosine similarity stationary threshold(CSST),BVMD,fluctuation-based dispersion entropy(FDE),named BVMD-OFDE-CSST-BVMD-FDE,is proposed.In the first place,decompose the original signal into a series of intrinsic mode functions(IMFs)by BVMD.Afterwards,distinguish pure IMFs,mixed IMFs and noise IMFs by OFDE and CSST,and reconstruct pure IMFs and mixed IMFs to obtain primary denoised signal.In the end,decompose primary denoising signal into IMFs by BVMD again,use the FDE value to distinguish noise IMFs and pure IMFs,and reconstruct pure IMFs to obtain the final denoised signal.The proposed mothod has three advantages:(i)BVMD can adaptively select the decomposition layer and penalty factor of VMD.(ii)FDE and CS are used as double criteria to distinguish noise IMFs from useful IMFs,and Otsu algorithm and CSST algorithm can effectively avoid the error caused by manually selecting thresholds.(iii)Secondary decomposition can make up for the deficiency of primary decomposition and further remove a small amount of noise.The chaotic signal and real ship signal are denoised.The experiment result shows that the proposed method can effectively denoise.It improves the denoising effect after primary decomposition,and has good practical value.
文摘Deviation is essential to classic soft threshold denoising in wavelet domain. Texture features ofnoised image denoised by wavelet transform were weakened. Gibbs effect is distinct at edges of image.Image blurs comparing with original noised image. To solve the questions, a blind denoising method basedon single-wavelet transform and multiwavelets transform was proposed. The method doesn’t depend onsize of image and deviation to determine threshold of wavelet coefficients, which is different from classicalsoft-threshold denoising in wavelet domain. Moreover, the method is good for many types of noise. Gibbseffect disappeared with this method, edges of image are preserved well, and noise is smoothed andrestrained effectively.
文摘为解决风电机组故障诊断中故障样本不足而导致模型准确率不高的问题,将当下备受关注的数据增强方法-去噪扩散概率模型(denoising diffusion probability model,DDPM)引入到故障诊断领域以生成大量高质量的故障样本数据集。因此,结合Transformer网络,提出了一种DDPM-Transformer风电机组故障样本生成方法。首先,将用于计算机视觉图像生成领域的DDPM模型应用于风电机组故障诊断领域中,通过前向加噪过程将数据逐渐转化为噪声,再通过逆向去噪过程将噪声逐步恢复为原始数据,实现从噪声中生成故障数据,解决数据不平衡问题;其次,通过对原始DDPM中使用的U-net模块进行改进,使用Transformer模型替换U-net网络,利用扩散后的数据和添加的噪声训练Transformer模型,实现噪声预测,以提高故障数据的生成质量;最后,使用多种生成模型评价指标对生成的故障数据进行评价,在监督控制和数据采集系统(supervisory control and data acquisition,SCADA)故障数据生成中论证改进DDPM-Transformer模型的性能。通过试验证明,所提DDPM-Transformer模型与现有的生成模型相比,最大均值异(maximum mean discrepancy,MMD)最大提升0.13,峰值信噪比(peak signal to noise ratio,PSNR)最大提升7.8。所提模型可以有效地生成质量更高的风电机组故障样本,从而基于该样本集辅助训练基于深度学习的故障诊断模型,可以使诊断模型具有更高精度和良好的稳定性。
