Black rice is an important rice species in Southeast Asia. It is a common phenomenon to pass low-priced black rice off as high-priced ones for economic benefit, especially in some remote towns. There is increasing need for the development of fast, easy-to-use, and low-cost analytical methods for authenticity detection. The feasibility to utilize near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and support vector data description (SVDD) for such a goal is explored. Principal component analysis (PCA) is used for exploratory analysis and feature extraction. Another two data description methods, i.e., k-nearest neighbor data description (KNNDD) and GAUSS method, are used as the reference. A total of 142 samples from three brands were collected for spectral analysis. Each time, the samples of a brand serve as the target class whereas other samples serve as the outlier class. Based on both the first two principal components (PCs) and original variables, three types of data descriptions were constructed. On average, the optimized SVDD model achieves acceptable performance, i.e., a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 94.2% on the independent test set with tight boundary. It indicates that SVDD combined with NIR is feasible and effective for authenticity detection of black rice.

Pipelines are one of the most efficient and economical methods of transporting fluids, such as oil, natural gas, and water. However, pipelines are often subject to leakage due to pipe corrosion, pipe aging, pipe weld defects, or damage by a third-party, resulting in huge economic losses and environmental degradation. Therefore, effective pipeline leak detection methods are important research issues to ensure pipeline integrity management and accident prevention. The conventional methods for pipeline leak detection generally need to extract the features of leak signal to establish a leak detection model. However, it is difficult to obtain actual leakage signal data samples in most applications. In addition, the operating modes of pipeline fluid transportation process often have frequent changes, such as regulating valves and pump operation. Aiming at these issues, this paper proposes a hybrid intelligent method that integrates kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) and cascade support vector data description (Cas-SVDD) for pipeline leak detection with multiple operating modes, using data samples that are leak-free during pipeline operation. Firstly, the local mean decomposition method is used to denoise and reconstruct the measured signal to obtain the feature variables. Then, the feature dimension is reduced and the nonlinear principal component is extracted by the KPCA algorithm. Secondly, the K-means clustering algorithm is used to identify multiple operating modes and then obtain multiple support vector data description models to obtain the decision boundaries of the corresponding hyperspheres. Finally, pipeline leak is detected based on the Cas-SVDD method. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect small leaks and improve leak detection accuracy.

The classification of plastic waste before recycling is of great significance to achieve effective recycling. In order to achieve rapid, nondestructive, and on-site detection, a portable near-infrared spectrometer was used in this study to obtain the diffuse reflectance spectrum for both standard and commercial plastics made by ABS, PC, PE, PET, PP, PS, and PVC. After applying a series of pretreatments, the principal component analysis (PCA) was used to analyze the cluster trend. K-nearest neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and back propagation neural network (BPNN) classification models were developed and evaluated, respectively. The result showed that different plastics could be well separated in top three principal components space after pretreatment, and the classification models performed excellent classification results and high generalization capability. This study indicated that the portable NIR spectrometer, integrated with chemometrics, could achieve excellent performance and has great potential in the field of commercial plastic identification.

Background: Detecting DNA-binding proetins (DBPs) based on biological and chemical methods is time consuming and expensive. Objective: In recent years, the rise of computational biology methods based on Machine Learning (ML) has greatly improved the detection efficiency of DBPs. Method: In this study, Multiple Kernel-based Fuzzy SVM Model with Support Vector Data Description (MK-FSVM-SVDD) is proposed to predict DBPs. Firstly, sex features are extracted from protein sequence. Secondly, multiple kernels are constructed via these sequence feature. Than, multiple kernels are integrated by Centered Kernel Alignment-based Multiple Kernel Learning (CKA-MKL). Next, fuzzy membership scores of training samples are calculated with Support Vector Data Description (SVDD). FSVM is trained and employed to detect new DBPs. Results: Our model is test on several benchmark datasets. Compared with other methods, MK-FSVM-SVDD achieves best Matthew's Correlation Coefficient (MCC) on PDB186 (0.7250) and PDB2272 (0.5476). Conclusion: We can conclude that MK-FSVM-SVDD is more suitable than common SVM, as the classifier for DNA-binding proteins identification.
