High Impedance Fault

Photovoltaic (PV) monitoring and fault detection are very crucial to enhance the service life and reliability of PV systems. It is difficult to detect and classify the faults at the Direct Current (DC) side of PV arrays by common protection devices, especially Line-to-Line (LL) faults, because such faults are not detectable under high impedance fault and low mismatch conditions. If these faults are not diagnosed, they may significantly reduce the output power of PV systems and even cause fire catastrophe. Recently, many efforts have been devoted to detecting and classifying LL faults. However, these methods could not efficiently detect and classify the LL faults under high impedance and low mismatch. This paper proposes a novel fault diagnostic scheme in accordance with the two main stages. First, the key features are extracted via analyzing Current–Voltage (I–V) characteristics under various LL fault events and normal operation. Second, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used for parameter optimization of the kernel functions used in the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and feature selection in order to obtain higher performance in diagnosing the faults in PV systems. In contrast to previous studies, this method requires only a small dataset for the learning process and it has a higher accuracy in detecting and classifying the LL fault events under high impedance and low mismatch levels. The simulation results verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method in detecting and classifying of LL faults in PV arrays even under complex conditions. The proposed method detects and classifies the LL faults under any condition with an average accuracy of 96% and 97.5%, respectively.

A feature selection method based on mutual information and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed in order to eliminate redundant feature and improve classification accuracy. First, local correlation between features and overall correlation is calculated by mutual information. The correlation reflects the information inclusion relationship between features, so the features are evaluated and redundant features are eliminated with analyzing the correlation. Subsequently, the concept of mean impact value (MIV) is defined and the influence degree of input variables on output variables for SVM network based on MIV is calculated. The importance weights of the features described with MIV are sorted by descending order. Finally, the SVM classifier is used to implement feature selection according to the classification accuracy of feature combination which takes MIV order of feature as a reference. The simulation experiments are carried out with three standard data sets of UCI, and the results show that this method can not only effectively reduce the feature dimension and high classification accuracy, but also ensure good robustness.

This paper investigates feature selection methods based on hybrid architecture using feature selection algorithm called Adapted Fast Correlation Based Feature selection and Support Vector Machine Recursive Feature Elimination (AFCBF-SVMRFE). The AFCBF-SVMRFE has three stages and composed of SVMRFE embedded method with Correlation based Features Selection. The first stage is the relevance analysis, the second one is a redundancy analysis, and the third stage is a performance evaluation and features restoration stage. Experiments show that the proposed method tested on different classifiers: Support Vector Machine SVM and K nearest neighbors KNN provide a best accuracy on various dataset. The SVM classifier outperforms KNN classifier on these data. The AFCBF-SVMRFE outperforms FCBF multivariate filter, SVMRFE, Particle swarm optimization PSO and Artificial bees colony ABC.

An enhanced classification system for classification of MR images using association of kernels with support vector machine is developed and presented in this paper along with the design and development of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Content of image retrieval is the process of finding relevant image from large collection of image database using visual queries. Medical images have led to growth in large image collection. Oriented Rician Noise Reduction Anisotropic Diffusion filter is used for image denoising. A modified hybrid Otsu algorithm termed is used for image segmentation. The texture features are extracted using GLCM method. Genetic algorithm with Joint entropy is adopted for feature selection. The classification is done by support vector machine along with various kernels and the performance is validated. A classification accuracy of 98.83% is obtained using SVM with GRBF kernel. Various features have been extracted and these features are used to classify MR images into five different categories. Performance of the MC-SVM classifier is compared with different kernel functions. From the analysis and performance measures like classification accuracy, it is inferred that the brain and spinal cord MRI classification is best done using MC- SVM with Gaussian RBF kernel function than linear and polynomial kernel functions. The proposed system can provide best classification performance with high accuracy and low error rate.

Kidney Disease and kidney failure is the one of the complicated and challenging health issues regarding human health. Without having any symptoms few diseases are detected in later stages which results in dialysis. Advanced excavating technologies can always give various possibilities to deal with the situation by determining important realations and associations in drilling down health related data.   The prediction accuracy of classification algorithms depends upon appropriate Feature Selection (FS) algorithms decrease the number of features from collection of data. FS is the procedure of choosing the most relevant features, removing irrelevant features. To identify the Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), Hybrid Wrapper and Filter based FS (HWFFS) algorithm is proposed to reduce the dimension of CKD dataset.   Filter based FS algorithm is performed based on the three major functions: Information Gain (IG), Correlation Based Feature Selection (CFS) and Consistency Based Subset Evaluation (CS) algorithms respectively. Wrapper based FS algorithm is performed based on the Enhanced Immune Clonal Selection (EICS) algorithm to choose most important features from the CKD dataset.  The results from these FS algorithms are combined with new HWFFS algorithm using classification threshold value.  Finally Support Vector Machine (SVM) based prediction algorithm be proposed in order to predict CKD and being evaluated on the MATLAB platform. The results demonstrated with the purpose of the SVM classifier by using HWFFS algorithm provides higher prediction rate in the diagnosis of CKD when compared to other classification algorithms.
