Enhanced Industrial Machinery Condition Monitoring Methodology based on Novelty Detection and Multi-Modal Analysis
This paper presents a condition-based monitoring methodology based on novelty detection applied to industrial machinery. The proposed approach includes both, the classical classification of multiple a priori known scenarios, and the innovative detection capability of new operating modes not previously available. The development of condition-based monitoring methodologies considering the isolation capabilities of unexpected scenarios represents, nowadays, a trending topic able to answer the demanding requirements of the future industrial processes monitoring systems. First, the method is based on the temporal segmentation of the available physical magnitudes, and the estimation of a set of time-based statistical features. Then, a double feature reduction stage based on Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant Analysis is applied in order to optimize the classification and novelty detection performances. The posterior combination of a Feed-forward Neural Network and One-Class Support Vector Machine allows the proper interpretation of known and unknown operating conditions. The effectiveness of this novel condition monitoring scheme has been verified by experimental results obtained from an automotive industry machine.Postprint (published version
Joint cross-domain classification and subspace learning for unsupervised adaptation
Domain adaptation aims at adapting the knowledge acquired on a source domain
to a new different but related target domain. Several approaches have
beenproposed for classification tasks in the unsupervised scenario, where no
labeled target data are available. Most of the attention has been dedicated to
searching a new domain-invariant representation, leaving the definition of the
prediction function to a second stage. Here we propose to learn both jointly.
Specifically we learn the source subspace that best matches the target subspace
while at the same time minimizing a regularized misclassification loss. We
provide an alternating optimization technique based on stochastic sub-gradient
descent to solve the learning problem and we demonstrate its performance on
several domain adaptation tasks.Comment: Paper is under consideration at Pattern Recognition Letter
Unsupervised Understanding of Location and Illumination Changes in Egocentric Videos
Wearable cameras stand out as one of the most promising devices for the
upcoming years, and as a consequence, the demand of computer algorithms to
automatically understand the videos recorded with them is increasing quickly.
An automatic understanding of these videos is not an easy task, and its mobile
nature implies important challenges to be faced, such as the changing light
conditions and the unrestricted locations recorded. This paper proposes an
unsupervised strategy based on global features and manifold learning to endow
wearable cameras with contextual information regarding the light conditions and
the location captured. Results show that non-linear manifold methods can
capture contextual patterns from global features without compromising large
computational resources. The proposed strategy is used, as an application case,
as a switching mechanism to improve the hand-detection problem in egocentric
videos.Comment: Submitted for publicatio
Tile2Vec: Unsupervised representation learning for spatially distributed data
Geospatial analysis lacks methods like the word vector representations and
pre-trained networks that significantly boost performance across a wide range
of natural language and computer vision tasks. To fill this gap, we introduce
Tile2Vec, an unsupervised representation learning algorithm that extends the
distributional hypothesis from natural language -- words appearing in similar
contexts tend to have similar meanings -- to spatially distributed data. We
demonstrate empirically that Tile2Vec learns semantically meaningful
representations on three datasets. Our learned representations significantly
improve performance in downstream classification tasks and, similar to word
vectors, visual analogies can be obtained via simple arithmetic in the latent
space.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures in main text; 9 pages, 11 figures in appendi
