ABSTRACT Background: A computer aided diagnosis system was established using the wavelet transform and neural network to differentiate malignant from benign in a   group of patients with histo-pathologically proved breast lesions based on the data derived independ­ently from time-intensity profile.   Materials and Methods: The per­formance of the artificial neural network (ANN) was evaluated u...

This paper presents the application of radial basis neural networks to the development of a novel method for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of synchronous generators. In the proposed scheme, flux linkage analysis is used to reach a decision. Probabilistic neural network (PNN) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) are used in design of fault diagnosis system. PNN as main part of thi...

in this paper, a fault diagnosis system based on discrete wavelet transform (dwt) and artificial neural networks (anns) is designed to diagnose different types of fault in gears. dwt is an advanced signal-processing technique for fault detection and identification. five features of wavelet transform rms, crest factor, kurtosis, standard deviation and skewness of discrete wavelet coefficients of...

correct estimation of suspended sediment transported by a river is an important practice in water structure design, environmental problems and water quality issues. conventionally, sediment rating curve used for suspended sediment estimation in rivers. in this method discharge and sediment discharge or concentration related using regression relation that generally is exponential model. respect ...

introduction: repetitive strain injuries are one of the most prevalent problems in occupational diseases. repetition, vibration and bad postures of the extremities are physical risk factors related to work that can cause chronic musculoskeletal disorders. repetitive work on a computer with low level contraction requires the posture to be maintained for a long time, which can cause muscle fatigu...

The goal of this research is to predict total stock market index of Tehran Stock Exchange, using the compound method of ARIMA and neural network in order for the active participations of finance market as well as macro decision makers to be able to predict trend of the market. First, the series of price index was decomposed by wavelet transform, then the smooth's series  predicted by using...

prediction of the waves’ specifications that is one of the key factors effective on transformation ofcoasts, production of renewable energies and design of marine structures, has always been importante.height of the waves is one of the most important and effective parameters of the wave. differentfactors are effective in variation of the waves’ height. in this research, variation in waves heigh...

Dielectric surfaces exposed to partial discharges (PD) undergo aging, which is reflected by changes in the discharge pulse form. An approach is described in which fuzzy logic and neural networks are used in conjunction with the wavelet transform to identify the parameters in the PD pulse form for the purpose of classifying the aging phenomena due to partial discharge degradation.

For seismic resistant design of critical structures, a dynamic analysis, based on either response spectrum or time history is frequently required. Due to the lack of recorded data and randomness of earthquake ground motion that might be experienced by the structure under probable future earthquakes, it is usually difficult to obtain recorded data which fit the necessary parameters (e.g. soil ty...
