    The predictions for the original chaos patterns can be used to correct the distorted chaos pattern which has changed due to any changes whether from undesired disturbance or additional information which can hide under chaos pattern. This information can be recovered when the original chaos pattern is predicted. But unpredictability is most features of chaos, and time series prediction can be used based on the collection of past observations of a variable and analysis it to obtain the underlying relationships and then extrapolate future time series. The additional information often prunes away by several techniques. This paper shows how the chaotic time series prediction is difficult and distort even if Neuro-Fuzzy such as Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is used under any disturbance. The paper combined particle swarm (PSO) and (ANFIS) to exam the prediction model and predict the original chaos patterns which comes from the double scroll circuit. Changes in the bias of the nonlinear resistor were used as a disturbance. The predicted chaotic data is compared with data from the chaotic circuit

    Vodotok je važan za hidrološko proučavanje zato što određuje varijabilnost vode i magnitudu rijeke. Inženjerstvo vodnih resursa uvijek se bavi povijesnim podacima i pokušava procijeniti prognostičke podatke kako bi se osiguralo bolje predviđanje za primjenu kod bilo kojeg vodnog resursa, na pr. projektiranja vodnog potencijala brane hidroelektrana, procjene niskog protoka, i održavanja zalihe vode. U radu se predstavljaju tri računalna programa za primjenu kod rješavanja ovakvih sadržaja, tj. umjetne neuronske mreže - artificial neural networks (ANNs), prilagodljivi sustavi neuro-neizrazitog zaključivanja - adaptive-neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFISs), i support vector machines (SVMs). Za stvaranje procjene korištena je Rijeka Telom, smještena u Cameron Highlands distriktu Pahanga, Malaysia. Podaci o dnevnom prosječnom protoku rijeke Telom, kao što su količina padavina i podaci o vodostaju, koristili su se za period od ožujka 1984. do siječnja 2013. za podučavanje, ispitivanje i ocjenjivanje izabranih modela. SVM pristup je dao bolje rezultate nego ANFIS i ANNs kod procjenjivanja dnevne prosječne fluktuacije vodotoka.Stream flow is an important input for hydrology studies because it determines the water variability and magnitude of a river. Water resources engineering always deals with historical data and tries to estimate the forecasting records in order to give a better prediction for any water resources applications, such as designing the water potential of hydroelectric dams, estimating low flow, and maintaining the water supply. This paper presents three soft-computing approaches for dealing with these issues, i.e. artificial neural networks (ANNs), adaptive-neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFISs), and support vector machines (SVMs). Telom River, located in the Cameron Highlands district of Pahang, Malaysia, was used in making the estimation. The Telom River’s daily mean discharge records, such as rainfall and river-level data, were used for the period of March 1984 – January 2013 for training, testing, and validating the selected models. The SVM approach provided better results than ANFIS and ANNs in estimating the daily mean fluctuation of the stream’s flow

    Soft computing is a set of “inexact” computing techniques, which are able to model and analyze very complex problems. For these complex problems, more conventional methods have not been able to produce cost-effective, analytical, or complete solutions. Soft computing has been extensively studied and applied in the last three decades for scientific research and engineering computing. In agricultural and biological engineering, researchers and engineers have developed methods of fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms, decision trees, and support vector machines to study soil and water regimes related to crop growth, analyze the operation of food processing, and support decision-making in precision farming. This paper reviews the development of soft computing techniques. With the concepts and methods, applications of soft computing in the field of agricultural and biological engineering are presented, especially in the soil and water context for crop management and decision support in precision agriculture. The future of development and application of soft computing in agricultural and biological engineering is discussed

    Design of monitoring applications and prediction of key industrial metrics: IIoT + AI

    Get PDF
    The global industry has suffered deep changes in the last years because of the successful development and integration of new technologies. Industry 4.0 has emerged as a new standard for achieving efficiency and improving processes. Among the technologies used in Industry 4.0, Internet of Things applied to industry (IIoT) enable real-time, intelligent, and autonomous access, collection, analysis, communications, and exchange of process, product and/or service information, within the industrial environment, so as to optimize overall production value. Because of its importance, in this project, a methodology for extracting, analyzing and using the data gathered by IIoT devices is proposed in order to extract meaningful information and to predict industrial key metrics with Artificial Intelligence. In addition, for the complete validation of the proposed methodology, a practical implementation of all the mentioned aspects is carried out by developing a study of the industrial process in the wastewater treatment field using the data collected by an Industrial Internet of Things infrastructure and modelling key time series metrics, such as total organic carbon (TOC) and carbon removal performance (CRP) by using Machine Learning models XGBOOST Regressor, Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) Regressor and Support Vector Regressor (SVR) to implement a dashboard with an operational panel and a decision-making panel that helps anticipate possible deviations in the performance of the industrial process

    Application of Information-Geometric Support Vector Machine on Fault Diagnosis of Hydraulic Pump

    The growing demand for the safety and reliability in industries triggers the development of condition monitoring and fault diagnosis technologies. Hydraulic pump is the critical part of a hydraulic system. The diagnosis of hydraulic pump is very crucial for reliability. This paper presents a method based on information-geometric support vector machine (IG-SVM), which is employed for fault diagnosis of hydraulic pump. The IG-SVM, which uses information geometry to modify SVM, improves the performance in a data dependent way. To diagnose faults of hydraulic pump, a residual error generator is designed based on the IG-SVM. This residual error generator is firstly trained using data from normal state. Then, it can be used for fault clustering by analysis of the residual error. Its feasibility and efficiency has also been validated via a plunger pump test-bed

    Fault diagnosis of rotating machineries is becoming important because of the complexity of modern industrial systems and the increasing demands for quality, cost efficiency, reliability, and safety. In this study, an information-geometric support vector machine used in conjunction with chaos theory (chaotic IG-SVM) is presented and applied to practical fault diagnosis of hydraulic pumps, which are critical components of aircraft. First, the phase-space reconstruction of chaos theory is used to determine the dimensions of input vectors for IG-SVM, which uses information geometry to modify SVM and improves performance in a data-dependent manner without prior knowledge or manual intervention. Chaotic IG-SVM is trained by using the dataset from the normal state without fault, and a residual error generator is then designed to detect failures based on the trained chaotic IG-SVM. Failures can be diagnosed by analyzing residual error. Chaotic IG-SVM can then be used for fault clustering by analyzing residual error. Finally, two case studies are presented, and the performance and effectiveness of the proposed method are validated

    The strengths and weaknesses of popular pIc programming tools may be a common knowledge to the experienced but that contention alone lacks depth to the many others. Several studies have presented weighted comparisons but focused on only two approaches at a time. The first part of this paper presents qualitative comparisons among the 4 most popular approaches: relay ladder logic (RLL), state diagram, grafcet and ordinary Petri net. Each approach is weighted by their understandability, efficiency and flexibility. It is the intent of the second part of this study to formulate a mix and match LLD realization method based on the compared model strengths and weaknesses. The proposed model is then compared with the internationally accepted Grafcet approach in light of the same criteria as the first part. An analysis entails on what has been gained and lost in the proposed approach. From these comparisons ultimately, it is hoped that the pIc programmer is aware of the strengths and limitations of whichever programming approach chosen
