چکیده

This paper discusses the application of category theory as a unifying concept for formally developed information fusion systems. Category theory is a mathematically sound technique used to capture the commonalties and relationships between objects. This feature makes category theory a very elegant language for describing information fusion systems and the information fusion process itself. After an initial overview of category theory, the paper investigates the application of category theory to a wavelet based multisensor target recognition system, the Automatic Multisensor Feature-based Recognition System (AMFRS), which was originally developed using formal methods.

Application of Combined Local Object Based Features and Cluster Fusion for the Behaviors Recognition and Detection of Abnormal Behaviors

In this paper, we propose a novel framework for behaviors recognition and detection of certain types of abnormal behaviors, capable of achieving high detection rates on a variety of real-life scenes. The new proposed approach here is a combination of the location based methods and the object based ones. First, a novel approach is formulated to use optical flow and binary motion video as the loc...

A New Method for Multisensor Data Fusion Based on Wavelet Transform in a Chemical Plant

This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...

Fractal-wavelet-fusion-based re-ranking of joint roughness coefficients

Nowadays, Barton’s Joint Roughness Coefficients (JRC) are widely used as the index for roughness and as a challenging fracture property. When JRC ranking is the goal, deriving JRC from different fractal/wavelet procedures can be conflicting. Complexity increases when various rankings outcome from different calculation methods. Therefore, using Barton’s JRC, we cannot make a decision based on th...

AN INTELLIGENT FAULT DIAGNOSIS APPROACH FOR GEARS AND BEARINGS BASED ON WAVELET TRANSFORM AS A PREPROCESSOR AND ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS

In this paper, a fault diagnosis system based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) is designed to diagnose different types of fault in gears and bearings. DWT is an advanced signal-processing technique for fault detection and identification. Five features of wavelet transform RMS, crest factor, kurtosis, standard deviation and skewness of discrete wavelet co...

An Emotion Recognition Approach based on Wavelet Transform and Second-Order Difference Plot of ECG

Emotion, as a psychophysiological state, plays an important role in human communications and daily life. Emotion studies related to the physiological signals are recently the subject of many researches. In This study a hybrid feature based approach was proposed to examine affective states. To this effect, Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals of 47 students were recorded using pictorial emotion elici...
