Method for measuring non-stationary motion attitude based on MEMS-IMU array data fusion and adaptive filtering

The error characteristics of a typical commercial MEMS-IMU were analyzed. Using 15 ICM-42688 sensors, a 3*5 MEMS-IMU array was designed, and a weighted data fusion method based on Allan variance for the MEMS-IMU array was proposed. This effectively reduces the random measurement errors of the MEMS-IMU, providing a data foundation for the precise measurement of motion and attitude of robots, vehicles, aircraft, and other systems under low-cost conditions. The text describes a measurement method for non-stationary motion attitudes of sports vehicles based on adaptive Kalman-Mahony. Specifically, it first uses adaptive Kalman filter on array sensor data to calculate the measurement noise in real-time and adaptively adjust the filtering gain. Then, it determines the compensation coefficient of the accelerometer to the gyroscope angular velocity based on the motion state of the vehicle, and solves the attitude through complementary filtering to obtain the motion attitude quaternion. Finally, it converts it into the roll angle, pitch angle, and yaw angle of the sports vehicle. Experimental results show that the proposed MEMS-IMU array weighted data fusion method based on Allan variance has significant advantages over traditional single MEMS-IUM methods and traditional average weighting methods in reducing sensor angle random walk and zero drift instability. The proposed adaptive Kalman-Mahony attitude measurement method also shows a significant improvement in the accuracy of non-stationary motion attitude measurement compared to traditional methods.

Multivariate curve resolution-based data fusion approaches applied in 1H NMR metabolomic analysis of healthy cohorts

BackgroundMetabolomics plays a critical role in deciphering metabolic alterations within individuals, demanding the use of sophisticated analytical methodologies to navigate its intricate complexity. While many studies focus on single biofluid types, simultaneous analysis of multiple matrices enhances understanding of complex biological mechanisms. Consequently, the development of data fusion methods enabling multiblock analysis becomes essential for comprehensive insights into metabolic dynamics. ResultsThis study introduces a novel guideline for jointly analyzing diverse metabolomic datasets (serum, urine, metadata) with a focus on metabolic differences between groups within a healthy cohort. The guideline presents two fusion strategies, ‘Low-Level data fusion’ (LLDF) and ‘Mid-Level data fusion’ (MLDF), employing a sequential application of Multivariate Curve Resolution with Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS), linking the outcomes of successive analyses. MCR-ALS is a versatile method for analyzing mixed data, adaptable at various stages of data processing—encompassing resonance integration, data compression, and exploratory analysis. The LLDF and MLDF strategies were applied to 1H NMR spectral data extracted from urine and serum samples, coupled with biochemical metadata sourced from 145 healthy volunteers. SignificanceBoth methodologies effectively integrated and analysed multiblock datasets, unveiling the inherent data structure and variables associated with discernible factors among healthy cohorts. While both approaches successfully detected sex-related differences, the MLDF strategy uniquely revealed components linked to age. By applying this analysis, we aim to enhance the interpretation of intricate biological mechanisms and uncover variations that may not be easily discernible through individual data analysis.

Neural networks for intelligent multilevel control of artificial and natural objects based on data fusion: A survey

Today the tasks of complex artificial and natural objects control have come to the fore in the majority of subject domains. The efficiency and effectiveness of solving these tasks directly depends of the efficiency and effectiveness of data fusion (DF). Data fusion methods are designed to integrate data from multiple sources and transform it in order to produce more consistent, accurate, and useful information than that provided by any individual data source. Although DF has been extensively studied for a considerable period of time it is still hardly applicable in practice in the processes of the control of the real world objects with complex structure and behavior as the data produced by the objects is, in the majority of cases, heterogeneous, multimodal, and imperfect, has huge volume. To ensure proper response to the changes in the state and behavior of the controlled objects that can be caused by both internal and external influencing factors the data should be processed with high accuracy and with minimum delays. Despite the importance of the tasks of complex objects control till now there are no researches that clarify to what extent the DF problem has been solved from the perspective of its application in the processes of objects control based on the data received from the objects. In the survey we define the requirements to DF in the interests of the control of complex artificial and natural objects, consider the structure of the multilevel process of intelligent object control, identify the neural networks that can be used in the control process for data fusion. Despite the wide capabilities of the existing NN we reveal that they still do not meet all the requirements to DF for complex objects control. Based on the analysis of NN architectures, we define requirements for advanced NN architectures and discuss future research directions. To facilitate our literature analyses, we also perform conceptual exploration of collected papers with lattices of closed itemsets and implications from Formal Concept Analysis and Data Mining used for knowledge processing in similar large-scale studies.

Parameter Estimation of a Valve-Controlled Cylinder System Model Based on Bench Test and Operating Data Fusion

The accurate estimation of parameters is the premise for establishing a high-fidelity simulation model of a valve-controlled cylinder system. Bench test data are easily obtained, but it is challenging to emulate actual loads in the research on parameter estimation of valve-controlled cylinder system. Despite the actual load information contained in the operating data of the control valve, its acquisition remains challenging. This paper proposes a method that fuses bench test and operating data for parameter estimation to address the aforementioned problems. The proposed method is based on Bayesian theory, and its core is a pool fusion of prior information from bench test and operating data. Firstly, a system model is established, and the parameters in the model are analysed. Secondly, the bench and operating data of the system are collected. Then, the model parameters and weight coefficients are estimated using the data fusion method. Finally, the estimated effects of the data fusion method, Bayesian method, and particle swarm optimisation (PSO) algorithm on system model parameters are compared. The research shows that the weight coefficient represents the contribution of different prior information to the parameter estimation result. The effect of parameter estimation based on the data fusion method is better than that of the Bayesian method and the PSO algorithm. Increasing load complexity leads to a decrease in model accuracy, highlighting the crucial role of the data fusion method in parameter estimation studies.

Investigation on position and attitude estimation and control of manipulator based on machine vision

With the development of science and technology, people have higher and higher requirements for robots. The application of robots in industrial production is also increasing, and there are more applications in people’s lives. Therefore, robots must have a better ability to receive and process the external environment. Therefore, visual servo system appears. Pose estimation is a major problem in the current vision system. It has great application value in positioning and navigation, target tracking and recognition, virtual reality and motion estimation. Therefore, this paper put forward the research of robot arm pose estimation and control based on machine vision. This paper first analyzed the technology of machine vision, and then carried out experiments. The accuracy and stability of the two methods for robot arm pose estimation were compared. The experimental results showed that when the noise of Kalman’s centralized data fusion method was 1 pixel, the maximum error of the X-axis angle was only 0.55, and the average error was 0.02. In Kalman’s distributed data fusion method, the average error of X-axis displacement was 0.06, and the maximum value was 17.66. In terms of accuracy, Kalman’s centralized data fusion method was better. In terms of stability, Kalman’s centralized data fusion method was also better. However, in general, these two methods had very good results, and could accurately control the position and posture of the manipulator.

Research on classification methods for rubber based on terahertz time-domain spectroscopy with data fusion strategy

Rubber, an essential industrial product, plays a crucial role in industry and human life. However, some manufacturers of rubber use inferior, recycled or low-cost rubber materials to replace high-quality rubber products. Therefore, in order to ensure industrial production, protect natural environment and ensure personal safety, it is of great economic and social significance to enable rapid and non-destructive qualitative identification of rubber products. In this paper, eight different types of black rubber, including Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR), Choloroprene Rubber (CR) and Ethylen Propylen Diene Monomer (EPDM), were selected as research objects. Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy (THz-TDS) technology was utilized to get the absorption spectra, refractive index spectra and time-domain spectra of these samples for exploring the differences between different types of rubber in terahertz spectra. To reduce the data volume, three band selection algorithms were employed to extract features from the absorption spectra and refractive index spectra, and temporal features of time-domain spectra were extracted for subsequent data processing. In the selection of classification model algorithms, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Random Forest (RF) and Supervised Kohonen Neural Networks (S-Kohonen) were employed to recognize these spectral data. To fully exploit the latent information within these data and considering the possibility of the loss of partial information in single-type signal, a feature-level data fusion method was applied to different optical parameter signals to obtain more information about terahertz spectra during the process of data modeling. The results of the research indicated that the model with the highest prediction accuracy was the KNN model, with an accuracy of 97.37%, when refractive index spectra and time-domain spectra were fused as inputs, the F1-score reached 99.64. The performance of data fusion was noticeably better than that of a single-type signal. This study validates the feasibility of using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy for qualitative identification of different types of rubber.

Bearing fault diagnosis based on a multiple-constraint modal-invariant graph convolutional fusion network

Multisensor data fusion method can improve the accuracy of bearing fault diagnosis, in order to address the problems of single-sensor data types and the insufficient exploration of redundancy and complementarity between different modal data in most existing multisensor data fusion methods for bearing fault diagnosis, a bearing fault diagnosis method based on a Multiple-Constraint Modal-Invariant Graph Convolutional Fusion Network (MCMI-GCFN) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a Convolutional Autoencoder (CAE) and Squeeze-and-Excitation Block (SE block) are used to extract features of raw current and vibration signals. Secondly, the model introduces source domain classifiers and domain discriminators to capture modal invariance between different modal data based on domain adversarial training, making use of the redundancy and complementarity between multimodal data. Then, the spatial aggregation property of Graph Convolutional Neural Networks (GCN) is utilized to capture the dependency relationship between current and vibration modes with similar time step features for accurately fusing contextual semantic information. Finally, the validation is conducted on the public bearing damage current and vibration dataset from Paderborn University. The experimental results showed that the delivered fusion method achieved a bearing fault diagnosis accuracy of 99.6 %, which was about 9 %–11.4 % better than that with nonfusion methods.

Spatiotemporal characteristics analysis of multi-factorial air pollution in the Jing-Jin-Ji region based on improved sequential ICI method and novel grey spatiotemporal incidence models

Air pollution shares the attributes of multi-factorial influence and spatiotemporal complexity, leading to air pollution control assistance models easily falling into a state of failure. To address this issue, we design a framework containing improved data fusion method, novel grey incidence models and air pollution spatiotemporal analysis to analyze the complex characteristics of air pollution under the fusion of multiple factors. Firstly, we improve the existing data fusion method for multi-factor fusion. Subsequently, we construct two grey spatiotemporal incidence models to examine the spatiotemporal characteristics of multi-factorial air pollution in network relationships and changing trends. Furthermore, we propose two new properties that can manifest the performance of grey incidence analysis, and we provide detailed proof of the properties of the new models. Finally, in the Jing-Jin-Ji region, the novel models are used to study the network relationships and trend changes of air pollution. The findings are as follows: (1) Two highly polluted belts in the region require attention. (2) Although the air pollution network under multi-factorial fusion obeys the first law of geography, the network density and node density exhibit significant variations. (3) From 2013 to 2021, all pollutants except O3 show improvement. (4) Recommendations for responses are presented based on the above-mentioned results. (5) The parameter analyses, model comparisons, Monte Carlo experiments and model feature summaries illustrate that the proposed models are practical, interpretable and considerably outperform various prevailing competitors with remarkable universality.

Machine learning‐based data fusion method for wireless sensor networks

AbstractFor wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sensor nodes lose a certain amount of energy during the information collection and transmission process, and sensor nodes powered by non‐replaceable batteries have limited energy and need to be controlled for energy consumption. In the face of the energy consumption issue in WSN data transmission, research has been conducted to analyze data fusion methods in order to reduce energy consumption. Based on machine learning techniques, a Deep Stacked Auto‐Encoder (DSAE) model is constructed and trained using a layer‐wise greedy approach. By combining this model with WSN, an algorithm based on the DSAE model, called Deep Stacked Auto‐Encoder Data Fusion Algorithm (DSAEDFA), is obtained to do data fusion. The results show that compared to other algorithms, the proposed fusion algorithm has better fusion performance. When the number of iterations is set to 500, the DSAEDFA has 281 surviving nodes, which is 10 more than the Back‐Propagation Data Fusion Algorithm (BPDFA) and 144 more than the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) algorithm. When the number of failed nodes is 40, the DSAEDFA has a network survival time of 2562 rounds, which is 746 rounds longer than the LEACH algorithm. The research method effectively extends the lifespan of wireless sensor networks and reduces data transmission energy consumption. Compared to previous methods, the proposed method consider the factors of node residual energy and distance on the basis of traditional routing protocols, making the selection of cluster heads more reasonable. The proposed method can organically combine the DSAE model with the clustering model, optimize the data fusion method, and improve the performance of the algorithm. In addition, by combining the DSAE model, a machine learning technique with clustering models has been expanded in terms of the application scope.

Classification of diverse plastic samples by LIBS and Raman data fusion

The plastic production and usage in the world is steadily increasing. This leads to increased amounts of plastic waste. Most of the waste could be potentially recycled, but only 14 % of plastic waste is recycled. In order to increase the share of recycling in plastic waste management, the recycling process should be completely automated. The problematic part of sorting is being solved by either manual (labor-intensive) or spectroscopy-based (still in development) methods. In this work, we propose the data fusion of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and Raman spectroscopy as a fast, robust, and reliable way to sort/classify any potential polymer material. The sample set of this work consists of several types of polymers in clear, colored, and even mixture versions. So far, no LIBS/Raman classification works involved all these categories in one experiment. Additionally, the low and medium level of data fusion is discussed, and the performance is compared. By using LIBS and Raman data fusion method and both linear and nonlinear chemometric techniques, increased accuracy reaching more than 98 % in the classification of investigated plastic samples was achieved, which was a significant improvement when compared with singular methods classification accuracy.

An Integrated Deep Learning-Based Data Fusion and Degradation Modeling Method for Improving Prognostics

Accurate prognostics are crucially important to prevent unexpected failures in industrial and service systems. This process aims to monitor the degradation status of units and predict their remaining useful lifetime (RUL) by analyzing the data collected from multiple sensors. Existing studies for prognostics either focus on health index (HI)-based statistical fusion methods that are limited by restrictive assumptions or machine learning methods that model the HI and degradation status in two separate steps. However, the restrictive assumptions are often invalid in practice, and the intrinsic connection between the HI and degradation status is missing if the two parts are modeled separately, leading to poor prognostic results. This paper proposes an integrated deep learning-based data fusion and degradation modeling method by integrating a deep neural network (DNN) and a long short-term memory (LSTM) to characterize the nonlinear relationship between the HI and multiple sensor signals and to describe the underlying degradation status of units. In particular, our innovative idea is to develop an integrated backpropagation parameter estimation algorithm to solve the fusion procedure and the degradation modeling in an integrated manner by considering the properties of HI construction in the loss functions. Thus, the constructed HI is expected to better characterize the underlying degradation process and lead to a superior prognostic result. In the case study on the degradation of aircraft gas turbine engines, the proposed method achieves promising performance compared with the existing benchmarks of statistical models and other deep learning models. <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Note to Practitioners</i> —This paper develops an integrated deep learning-based data fusion and degradation modeling method for improving prognostics when multiple sensors are available to monitor the degradation status of a unit. There are four steps for implementing this method in practice: 1) collecting multiple sensor signals of historical units; 2) constructing the HI and modeling the degradation status of units by combining a DNN model and an LSTM model; 3) solving the fusion procedure and the degradation modeling in an integrated manner by developing an integrated backpropagation parameter estimation algorithm; and 4) making prognostics for in-service units. The novelty of the proposed method is that it conducts prognostics by combining a DNN fusion model and an LSTM degradation model, and seamlessly integrates the fusion procedure with the degradation modeling to construct the HI for better characterizing the status of a unit. As a result, the proposed method has two main advantages: (i) capable of characterizing various degradation processes of different engineering systems; and (ii) superior prognostic results by constructing more suitable HI for the degradation process.

Integration of electronic nose, electronic tongue, and colorimeter in combination with chemometrics for monitoring the fermentation process of Tremella fuciformis

This study proposes an efficient method for monitoring the submerged fermentation process of Tremella fuciformis (T. fuciformis) by integrating electronic nose (e-nose), electronic tongue (e-tongue), and colorimeter sensors using a data fusion strategy. Chemometrics was employed to establish qualitative identification and quantitative prediction models. The Pearson correlation analysis was applied to extract features from the e-nose and tongue sensor arrays. The optimal sensor arrays for monitoring the submerged fermentation process of T. fuciformis were obtained, and four different data fusion methods were developed by incorporating the colorimeter data features. To achieve qualitative identification, the physicochemical data and principal component analysis (PCA) results were utilized to determine three stages of the fermentation process. The fusion signal based on full features proved to be the optimal data fusion method, exhibiting the highest accuracy across different models. Notably, random forest (RF) was shown to be the most accurate pattern recognition method in this paper. For quantitative prediction, partial least squares regression (PLSR) and support vector regression (SVR) were employed to predict the sugar content and dry cell weight during fermentation. The best respective predictive R2 values for reducing sugar, tremella polysaccharide and dry cell weight were found to be 0.965, 0.988, and 0.970. Furthermore, due to its ability to capture nonlinear data relationships, SVR had superior performance in prediction modeling than PLSR. The results demonstrated that the combination of electronic sensor fusion signals and chemometrics provided a promising method for effectively monitoring T. fuciformis fermentation.

Error Compensation Method for Pedestrian Navigation System Based on Low-Cost Inertial Sensor Array.

In the pedestrian navigation system, researchers have reduced measurement errors and improved system navigation performance by fusing measurements from multiple low-cost inertial measurement unit (IMU) arrays. Unfortunately, the current data fusion methods for inertial sensor arrays ignore the system error compensation of individual IMUs and the correction of position information in the zero-velocity interval. Therefore, these methods cannot effectively reduce errors and improve accuracy. An error compensation method for pedestrian navigation systems based on a low-cost array of IMUs is proposed in this paper. The calibration method for multiple location-free IMUs is improved by using a sliding variance detector to segment the angular velocity magnitude into stationary and motion intervals, and each IMU is calibrated independently. Compensation is then applied to the velocity residuals in the zero-velocity interval after zero-velocity update (ZUPT). The experimental results show a significant improvement in the average noise performance of the calibrated IMU array, with a 3.01-fold increase in static noise performance. In the closed-loop walking experiment, the average horizontal position error of a single calibrated IMU is reduced by 27.52% compared to the uncalibrated IMU, while the calibrated IMU array shows a 2.98-fold reduction in average horizontal position error compared to a single calibrated IMU. After compensating for residual velocity, the average horizontal position error of a single IMU is reduced by 0.73 m, while that of the IMU array is reduced by 64.52%.

Wind resource assessment at mountainous wind farm: Fusion of RANS and vertical multi-point on-site measured wind field data

RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) has become one of the mainstream methods to determine the wind field in the wind resource assessment of the complex terrain. However, before the simulation of wind field by RANS, defining the inlet boundary condition often depends on user's experience, and lacks of theoretical guidance, which brings great uncertainties to the accuracy of simulation results. In this paper, based on the vertical multi-point wind speed data (including wind direction) obtained from the on-site measurement and the wind speed data simulated by RANS, a data fusion method called the RANS-VMM (Vertical Multi-point on-site Measurement) method is proposed. In this method, through the polar coordinate diagram (PCD) that can express the wind direction and wind profile index at the same time, the vertical multi-point measured wind speed of wind measurement tower and the RANS simulation results are fused via multiple iterations, which can reconstruct the wind field distribution with spatial variability in complex mountainous areas, thus improving the accuracy of wind resource assessment in the complex terrain. The evaluation and verification of the proposed method are conducted through an real wind farm with complex terrain, and the results indicate that the RANS-VMM method can improves the accuracy of wind resource assessment in the complex terrain.

Comparison of change-based and shape-based data fusion methods in fine-resolution land surface phenology monitoring with Landsat and Sentinel-2 data

Fine-resolution land surface phenology (LSP) is urgently required for applications on agriculture management and vegetation-climate interaction, especially over heterogeneous areas, such as agricultural lands and fragmented forests. The critical challenge of fine-resolution LSP monitoring is how to reconstruct the spatiotemporal continuous vegetation index time series. To solve this problem, various data fusion methods have been devised; however, the comprehensive inter-comparison is lacking across different spatial heterogeneity, data quality, and vegetation types. We divide these methods into two main categories: the change-based methods fusing satellite observations with different spatiotemporal resolutions, and the shape-based methods fusing prior knowledge of shape models and satellite observations. We selected four methods to rebuilt two-band enhanced vegetation index (EVI2) series based on the harmonized Landsat and Sentinel-2 (HLS) data, including two change-based methods, namely the Spatial and temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM), the Flexible Spatiotemporal DAta Fusion (FSDAF), and two shape-based methods, namely the Multiple-year Weighting Shape-Matching (MWSM), and the Spatiotemporal Shape-Matching Model (SSMM). Four phenological transition dates were extracted, evaluated with PhenoCam observations and the 500 m Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) phenology product. The 30 m transition dates show more spatial details and reveal more apparent intra-class and inter-class phenology variation compared with 500 m product. The four transition dates of SSMM and FSDAF (R2>0.74, MAD<15 days) show better agreement with PhenoCam-derived dates. The performance difference between fusion methods over various application scenarios are then analyzed. Fusion results are more robust when temporal frequency is higher than 15 observations per year. The shape-based methods are less sensitive to temporal sampling irregularity than change-based methods. Both change-based methods and shape-based methods cannot perform well when the region is heterogeneous. Among different vegetation types, SSMM-like methods have the highest overall accuracy. The findings in this paper can provide references for regional and global fine-resolution phenology monitoring.

A review of cancer data fusion methods based on deep learning

With advancements in modern medical technology, an increasing amount of cancer-related information can be acquired through various means, such as genomics, proteomics, imaging, and pathology. However, these datasets come from diverse sources and possess heterogeneity and complexity in terms of data types, formats, and quality, which pose challenges for cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis evaluation. Data fusion has emerged as an effective approach to address data heterogeneity and enhance data information value. Integrating cancer data of different origins and types can improve diagnostic accuracy and deepen our profound understanding of cancer. Currently, data fusion methods based on deep learning have gained considerable attention in cancer research. This study presents a comprehensive review of the most recent research and development trends of deep learning-based data fusion in cancer, with emphasis on the advancements of various data fusion methods based on heterogeneous data types (including specific methodologies, their pros, and cons), which offer substantial support for enhancing the precision of diagnosing and treating cancer. Furthermore, we present an overview of prevalent cancer data types and fusion approaches and analyze the general modeling methodologies based on deep learning. We further discuss the challenges and future directions, aiming to provide assistance and guidance for researchers endeavoring to devise deep learning solutions in the sphere of cancer research.

A novel federated multi-view clustering method for unaligned and incomplete data fusion

Recently, federated multi-view clustering (FedMVC) has emerged as a powerful tool to uncover complementary cluster structures across distributed clients, gaining significant attention in the realm of data fusion. While FedMVC methods have adeptly addressed the challenges of feature heterogeneity among various clients, achieving notable success in controlled environments. Their applicability often hinges on the assumptions of strict alignment and data completeness across multi-view clients. These assumptions, unfortunately, are not always consistent with real-world conditions. Specifically, practical applications often come with (1) unaligned multi-view data and (2) missing data. Current FedMVC methods struggle to effectively address these challenges. To bridge this gap, this paper presents FCUIF, a novel method that eliminates the need for data alignment and completeness assumptions. To tackle unaligned data, FCUIF leverages both sample commonality and view versatility to adaptively generate alignment matrices, ensuring effective cross-view alignment. For the challenge of missing data, FCUIF uses an unsupervised technique to evaluate and refine imputation quality, efficiently handling various scenarios of incomplete multi-view data. Our extensive experiments using four public datasets demonstrate FCUIF’s superior performance when dealing with unaligned and incomplete multi-view data. The code is available at https://github.com/5Martina5/FCUIF.
