Abstract In industrial production and engineering operations, the health state of complex systems is critical, and predicting it can ensure normal operation. Complex systems have many monitoring indicators, complex coupling structures, non-linear and time-varying characteristics, so it is a challenge to establish a reliable prediction model. The belief rule base (BRB) can fuse observed data and expert knowledge to establish a nonlinear relationship between input and output and has well modeling capabilities. Since each indicator of the complex system can reflect the health state to some extent, the BRB is built based on the causal relationship between system indicators and the… More >

Abstract Modulation signal classification in communication systems can be considered a pattern recognition problem. Earlier works have focused on several feature extraction approaches such as fractal feature, signal constellation reconstruction, etc. The recent advent of deep learning (DL) models makes it possible to proficiently classify the modulation signals. In this view, this study designs a chaotic oppositional satin bowerbird optimization (COSBO) with bidirectional long term memory (BiLSTM) model for modulation signal classification in communication systems. The proposed COSBO-BiLSTM technique aims to classify the different kinds of digitally modulated signals. In addition, the fractal feature extraction process takes place by the use… More >

Abstract Fault tolerant technology has greatly improved the reliability of modern systems on one hand and makes their failure mechanisms more complex on the other. The characteristics of dynamics of failure, diversity of distribution and epistemic uncertainty always exist in these systems, which increase the challenges in the reliability assessment of these systems significantly. This paper presents a novel reliability analysis framework for complex systems within which the failure rates of components are expressed in interval numbers. Specifically, it uses a dynamic fault tree (DFT) to model the dynamic fault behaviors and copes with the epistemic uncertainty using Dempster- Shafer (D-S)… More >
