Multivariate Correlation Analysis for Supervised Feature Selection in High-Dimensional Data

The main theme of this dissertation focuses on multivariate correlation analysis on different data types and we identify and define various research gaps in the same. For the defined research gaps we develop novel techniques that address relevance of features to the target and redundancy of features amidst themselves. Our techniques aim at handling homogeneous data, i.e., only continuous or categorical features, mixed data, i.e., continuous and categorical features, and time serie

Building robust prediction models for defective sensor data using Artificial Neural Networks

Predicting the health of components in complex dynamic systems such as an automobile poses numerous challenges. The primary aim of such predictive systems is to use the high-dimensional data acquired from different sensors and predict the state-of-health of a particular component, e.g., brake pad. The classical approach involves selecting a smaller set of relevant sensor signals using feature selection and using them to train a machine learning algorithm. However, this fails to address two prominent problems: (1) sensors are susceptible to failure when exposed to extreme conditions over a long periods of time; (2) sensors are electrical devices that can be affected by noise or electrical interference. Using the failed and noisy sensor signals as inputs largely reduce the prediction accuracy. To tackle this problem, it is advantageous to use the information from all sensor signals, so that the failure of one sensor can be compensated by another. In this work, we propose an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based framework to exploit the information from a large number of signals. Secondly, our framework introduces a data augmentation approach to perform accurate predictions in spite of noisy signals. The plausibility of our framework is validated on real life industrial application from Robert Bosch GmbH.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figures. Currently under review.
