Abstract Ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission lines are an important part of China’s power grid and are often surrounded by a complex electromagnetic environment. The ground total electric field is considered a main electromagnetic environment indicator of UHV transmission lines and is currently employed for reliable long-term operation of the power grid. Yet, the accurate prediction of the ground total electric field remains a technical challenge. In this work, we collected the total electric field data from the Ningdong-Zhejiang ±800 kV UHVDC transmission project, as of the Ling Shao line, and perform an outlier analysis of the More >

Abstract The widespread adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed various sectors globally, making them more intelligent and connected. However, this advancement comes with challenges related to the effectiveness of IoT devices. These devices, present in offices, homes, industries, and more, need constant monitoring to ensure their proper functionality. The success of smart systems relies on their seamless operation and ability to handle faults. Sensors, crucial components of these systems, gather data and contribute to their functionality. Therefore, sensor faults can compromise the system’s reliability and undermine the trustworthiness of smart environments. To address… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The automatic detection of noisy channels in surface Electromyogram (sEMG) signals, at the time of recording, is very critical in making a noise-free EMG dataset. If an EMG signal contaminated by high-level noise is recorded, then it will be useless and can’t be used for any healthcare application. In this research work, a new machine learning-based paradigm is proposed to automate the detection of low-level and high-level noises occurring in different channels of high density and multi-channel sEMG signals. A modified version of mel frequency cepstral coefficients (mMFCC) is proposed for the extraction of features… More >

Abstract We introduce a new wavelet based procedure for detecting outliers in financial discrete time series. The procedure focuses on the analysis of residuals obtained from a model fit, and applied to the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) like model, but not limited to these models. We apply the Maximal-Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) to the residuals and compare their wavelet coefficients against quantile thresholds to detect outliers. Our methodology has several advantages over existing methods that make use of the standard Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The series sample size does not need to be a More >

Abstract In estimation theory, the researchers have put their efforts to develop some estimators of population mean which may give more precise results when adopting ordinary least squares (OLS) method or robust regression techniques for estimating regression coefficients. But when the correlation is negative and the outliers are presented, the results can be distorted and the OLS-type estimators may give misleading estimates or highly biased estimates. Hence, this paper mainly focuses on such issues through the use of non-conventional measures of dispersion and a robust estimation method. Precisely, we have proposed generalized estimators by using the… More >

Abstract In-loop filtering significantly helps detect and remove blocking artifacts across block boundaries in low bitrate coded High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) frames and improves its subjective visual quality in multimedia services over communication networks. However, on faster processing of the complex videos at a low bitrate, some visible artifacts considerably degrade the picture quality. In this paper, we proposed a four-step fuzzy based adaptive deblocking filter selection technique. The proposed method removes the quantization noise, blocking artifacts and corner outliers efficiently for HEVC coded videos even at low bit-rate. We have considered Y (luma), U… More >

Abstract The ordinary least square (OLS) method is commonly used in regression analysis. But in the presence of outlier in the data, its results are unreliable. Hence, the robust regression methods have been suggested for a long time as alternatives to the OLS to solve the outliers problem. In the present study, new ratio type estimators of finite population mean are suggested using simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR) utilizing the supplementary information in Bowley’s coefficient of skewness with quartiles. For these proposed estimators, we have used the OLS, Huber-M, Mallows GM-estimate, Schweppe GM-estimate, and SIS More >

Abstract This study presents a method for the detection of outliers based on the Variable Precision Rough Set Model (VPRSM). The basis of this model is the generalisation of the standard concept of a set inclusion relation on which the Rough Set Basic Model (RSBM) is based. The primary contribution of this study is the improvement in detection quality, which is achieved due to the generalisation allowed by the classification system that allows a certain degree of uncertainty. From this method, a computationally efficient algorithm is proposed. The experiments performed with a real scenario and a More >

Abstract Discontinuous weighted least--squares (DWLS) approximation is a modification of a standard weighted least-squares approach that nowadays is intensively exploited in computational aerodynamics. A DWLS method is often employed to approximate a solution function over an unstructured computational grid that results in an irregular local support for the approximation. While the properties of a weighted least-squares reconstruction are well known for regular geometries, the approximation over a non-uniform grid is not a well researched area so far. In our paper we demonstrate the difficulties related to the performance of a DWLS method on distorted grids and More >
