Satu aspek penting dalam penilaian kualiti kuasa adalah pengesanan dan pengkelasan gangguan kualiti kuasa secara automatik yang memerlukan penggunaan teknik kepintaran buatan. Kertas kerja ini membentangkan penggunaan sistem pakar-kabur untuk pengkelasan gangguan voltan jangka masa pendek yang termasuk lendut voltan, ampul dan sampukan. Untuk memperolehi sifat unik bagi gangguan voltan, analisis jelmaan Fourier pantas dan teknik purataan punca min kuasa dua digunakan untuk menentukan parameter gangguan seperti tempoh masa, magnitud voltan pmk maksimum dan minimum. Berasaskan pada parameter ini, sebuah sistem pakar–kabur telah dibangunkan dengan mengset aturan kabur yang menimbangkan lima masukan dan tiga keluaran. Sistem ini direka bentuk untuk mengesan dan mengkelaskan tiga jenis gangguan voltan tempoh masa pendek dengan menentukan sama ada gangguan adalah gangguan ketika, gangguan seketika dan bukan gangguan lendut, ampul dan sampukan. Untuk mengesahkan kejituan sistem yang dicadangkan, ia telah diuji dengan gangguan voltan yang diperolehi dari pengawasan. Keputusan ujian menunjukkan bahawa sistem pakar–kabur yang dibangunkan telah memberikan kadar pengkelasan yang betul sebanyak 98.4 %. Kata kunci: Kualiti kuasa, sistem pakar–kabur, lendut, ampul dan sampukan One of the important aspects in power quality assessment is automated detection and classification of power quality disturbances which requires the use of artificial intelligent techniques. This paper presents the application of fuzzy–expert system for classification of short duration voltage disturbances which include voltage sag, swell and interruption. To obtain unique features of the voltage disturbances, fast Fourier transform analysis and root mean square averaging technique are utilized so as to determine the disturbance parameters such as duration, maximum and minimum rms voltage magnitudes. Based on these parameters, a fuzzy-expert system has been developed to set the fuzzy rules incorporating five inputs and three outputs. The system is designed for detecting and classifying the three types of short duration voltage disturbances, so as to determine whether the disturbance is instantaneous, momentary and non sag, swell and interruption. To verify the accuracy of the proposed system, it has been tested with recorded voltage disturbances obtained from monitoring. Tests results showed that the developed fuzzy–expert system gives a correct classification rate of 98.4 %. Key words: Power quality, fuzzy–expert system, sag, swell and interruption.

Electric power quality, which is a current interest to several power utilities all over the world, is often severely affected by harmonics and transient disturbances. There is no unique model which can assess the power quality problem and to identify and classify them properly. Existing automatic recognition methods need improvement in terms of their versatility, reliability, and accuracy. The FUZZY LOGIC based tools have been applied for the PQ classification. This paper addresses Power quality problem classification by wavelet and fuzzy expert system. Major Key issues and challenges related to these advanced techniques in automatic classification of PQ problems are highlighted. New intelligent system technologies using DSP, expert systems, AI and machine learning provide some unique advantages in intelligent classification of PQ distortions

Background: In this study, we investigated the fusion of texture and morphometric features as a possible diagnostic biomarker for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Methods: In particular, we classified subjects with Alzheimer’s disease, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Normal Control (NC) based on texture and morphometric features. Currently, neuropsychiatric categorization provides the ground truth for AD and MCI diagnosis. This can then be supported by biological data such as the results of imaging studies. Cerebral atrophy has been shown to correlate strongly with cognitive symptoms. Hence, Magnetic Resonance (MR) images of the brain are important resources for AD diagnosis. In the proposed method, we used three different types of features identified from structural MR images: Gabor, hippocampus morphometric, and Two Dimensional (2D) and Three Dimensional (3D) Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM). The experimental results, obtained using a 5-fold cross-validated Support Vector Machine (SVM) with 2DGLCM and 3DGLCM multi-feature fusion approaches, indicate that we achieved 81.05% ±1.34, 86.61% ±1.25 correct classification rate with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) falls between (80.75-81.35) and (86.33-86.89) respectively, 83.33%±2.15, 84.21%±1.42 sensitivity and 80.95%±1.52, 85.00%±1.24 specificity in our classification of AD against NC subjects, thus outperforming recent works found in the literature. For the classification of MCI against AD, the SVM achieved a 76.31% ± 2.18, 78.95% ±2.26 correct classification rate, 75.00% ±1.34, 76.19%±1.84 sensitivity and 77.78% ±1.14, 82.35% ±1.34 specificity. Results and Conclusion: The results of the third experiment, with MCI against NC, also showed that the multiclass SVM provided highly accurate classification results. These findings suggest that this approach is efficient and may be a promising strategy for obtaining better AD, MCI and NC classification performance.

Detection and Classification of Power Quality Disturbancewaveform Using MRA Based Modified Wavelet Transfrom and Neural Networks In this paper, the modified wavelet based artificial neural network (ANN) is implemented and tested for power signal disturbances. The power signal is decomposed by using modified wavelet transform and the classification is carried by using ANN. Discrete modified wavelet transforms based signal decomposition technique is integrated with the back propagation artificial neural network model is proposed. Varieties of power quality events including voltage sag, swell, momentary interruption, harmonics, transient oscillation and voltage fluctuation are used to test the performance of the proposed approach. The simulation is carried out by using MATLAB software. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme offers superior detection and classification compared to the conventional approaches.
