An Anomaly Detection System for Advanced Maintenance Services

Tadashi Suzuki Tojiro Noda Hisae Shibuya, Dr. Info. Hideaki Suzuki OVERVIEW: Combining maintenance service expertise with data mining technology, Hitachi has developed an anomaly detection system to make appropriate diagnoses in accordance with equipment status changes. The system enables automation of equipment status diagnoses that previously required engineers with specialist knowledge. The ...

Research on Acquisition Probability of the Visible Light Reconnaissance Equipment to Ground Targets

The detection probability of visible light reconnaissance equipment is one of key indexes to assess the performance of the system. The detection probability is determined by many factors, such as atmospheric visibility, target-background contrast, target size and distance, solar elevation angle etc. Based on the detection probability model of the visible light reconnaissance equipment to gain t...

Equipment-Based Image-Enhanced Endoscopy for Differentiating Colorectal Polyps

The use of colonoscopy for the screening and surveillance of colorectal cancer has increased. However, the miss rate of advanced colorectal neoplasm is known to be 2% to 6%, which could be affected by the image intensity of colorectal lesions. Image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) is capable of highlighting lesions, which can improve the colorectal adenoma detection rate and diagnostic accuracy. Equip...

GAO-06-389 Combating Nuclear Smuggling: DHS Has Made Progress Deploying Radiation Detection Equipment at U.S. Ports-of-Entry, but Concerns Remain

Advanced exergy and exergoeconomic analysis of the integrated structure of simultaneous production of NGL recovery and liquefaction

Advanced exergoeconomic analysis is applied on process configurations for co-production of LNG and NGL. This analysis provides information on the origin of the irreversibility as well as the irreversibility value of the process. The exergy destruction, exergy destruction cost, and also investment cost, are divided into two available/unavailable and endogenous/exogenous parts. The results of adv...
