In this paper, simulations of a ship travelling on a given oceanic route were performed by a weather routing system to provide a large realistic navigation data set, which could represent a collection of data obtained on board a ship in operation. This data set was employed to train a neural network computing system in order to predict ship speed and fuel consumption. The model was trained using the Levenberg–Marquardt backpropagation scheme to establish the relation between the ship speed and the respective propulsion configuration for the existing sea conditions, i.e., the output torque of the main engine, the revolutions per minute of the propulsion shaft, the significant wave height, and the peak period of the waves, together with the relative angle of wave encounter. Additional results were obtained by also using the model to train the relationship between the same inputs used to determine the speed of the ship and the fuel consumption. A sensitivity analysis was performed to analyze the artificial neural network capability to forecast the ship speed and fuel oil consumption without information on the status of the engine (the revolutions per minute and torque) using as inputs only the information of the sea state. The results obtained with the neural network model show very good accuracy both in the prediction of the speed of the vessel and the fuel consumption.

A robotic system for combined thermal nondestructive testing of large-size parts, including data fusion, is described. The efficiency of combining results of infrared (IR) and ultrasonic IR thermographic inspection has been demonstrated on a complex-shape reference sample containing 18 surrogates of manufacture and in-service defects. The data fusion algorithms including IR image stitching in space and automated defect detection and characterization by using a neural network have demonstrated efficiency of the proposed approach in practical testing.

To solve the problem that it is difficult to identify the cutting rock wall hardness of the roadheader in coal mine, a recognition method of cutting rock wall hardness is proposed based on multi-source data fusion and optimized probabilistic neural network. In this method, all kinds of cutting signals (the vibration signal of cutting arm, the pressure signal of hydraulic cylinders and current signal of cutting motor) are analyzed by wavelet packet to extract the feature vector, and the multi feature signal sample database of rock cutting with different hardness is established. To solve the problems of uncertain spread and complex network structure of probabilistic neural network (PNN), a PNN optimization method based on differential evolution algorithm (DE) and QR decomposition was proposed, and the rock hardness was identified based on multi-source data fusion by optimizing PNN. Then, based on the ground test monitoring data of a heavy longitudinal roadheader, the method is applied to recognize the cutting rock hardness, and compared with other common pattern recognition methods. The experimental results show that the cutting rock hardness recognition based on multi-source data fusion and optimized PNN has higher recognition accuracy, and the overall recognition error is reduced to 6.8%. The recognition of random cutting rock hardness is highly close to the actual. The method provides theoretical basis and technical premise for realizing automatic and intelligent cutting of heading face.

The fault diagnosis of electrical control system of certain type mine sweeping vehicle is difficult due to its complex structure and advanced technique. So in the multi-sensor failure diagnosis process, as a result of various reasons, such as the existence of measurement noise, diagnosis knowledge incomplete and so on, it makes the fault diagnosis uncertainty and affects the reliability and the accuracy of the diagnosis result. This article according to the analysis of electrical control system's fault characteristic of the mine sweeping plough’s, proposes a technique based on data fusion fault diagnosis method. The diagnosis process is divided into the sub system and the system-level, the subsystem uses the BP neural network to classify the fault mode, the system-level uses the D-S evidence theory carries on the comprehensive decision judgment for the whole system's fault. Application shows if some sub-neural network diagnosis has error, using D-S evidence theory fusion can effectively improve the accuracy of diagnosis.

The importance of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and related electronic systems continues to increase in a range of environmental, engineering and navigation applications. However, civilian GPS signals are vulnerable to Radio Frequency (RF) interference. Spoofing is an intentional intervention that aims to force a GPS receiver to acquire and track invalid navigation data. Analysis of spoofing and authentic signal patterns represents the differences as phase, energy and imaginary components of the signal. In this paper, early-late phase, delta, and signal level as the three main features are extracted from the correlation output of the tracking loop. Using these features, spoofing detection can be performed by exploiting conventional machine learning algorithms such as K-Nearest Neighbourhood (KNN) and naive Bayesian classifier. A Neural Network (NN) as a learning machine is a modern computational method for collecting the required knowledge and predicting the output values in complicated systems. This paper presents a new approach for GPS spoofing detection based on multi-layer NN whose inputs are indices of features. Simulation results on a software GPS receiver showed adequate detection accuracy was obtained from NN with a short detection time.
