Abstract The registration rate of freshmen has been a great concern at many colleges and universities, particularly private institutions. Traditionally, there are two inquiry methods: telephone and tuition-payment-status. Unfortunately, the former is not only time-consuming but also suffers from the fact that many students tend to keep their choices secret. On the other hand, the latter is not always feasible because only few students are willing to pay their university tuition fees in advance. It is often believed that it is impossible to predict incoming freshmen’s choice of university due to the large amount of subjectivity. However, if we look at… More >

Abstract Real world data consists of lot of impurities. Entropy measure will help to handle impurities in a better way. Here, data selection is done by using Naïve Bayes’ theorem. The sample which has posterior probability value greater than that of the threshold value is selected. C5.0 decision tree classifier is taken as base and modified the Gain calculation function using Tsallis entropy and Association function. The proposed classifier model provides more accuracy and smaller tree for general and Medical dataset. Precision value obtained for Medical dataset is more than that of existing method. More >

Abstract The state of cutting tool determines the quality of surface produced on the machined parts. A faulty tool produces poor surface, inaccurate geometry and non-economic production. Thus, it is necessary to monitor tool condition for a machining process to have superior quality and economic production. In the present study, fault classification of single point cutting tool for hard turning has been carried out by employing machine learning technique. Cutting force and vibration signals were acquired to monitor tool condition during machining. A set of four tooling conditions namely healthy, worn flank, broken insert and extended tool overhang have been considered… More >

Abstract With the development of the service-oriented computing (SOC), web service has an important and popular solution for the design of the application system to various enterprises. Nowadays, the numerous web services are provided by the service providers on the network, it becomes difficult for users to select the best reliable one from a large number of services with the same function. So it is necessary to design feasible selection strategies to provide users with the reliable services. Most existing methods attempt to select services according to accurate predictions for the quality of service (QoS) values. However, because the network and… More >

Abstract Hydraulic brakes in automobiles are an important control component used not only for the safety of the passenger but also for others moving on the road. Therefore, monitoring the condition of the brake components is inevitable. The brake elements can be monitored by studying the vibration characteristics obtained from the brake system using a proper signal processing technique through machine learning approaches. The vibration signals were captured using an accelerometer sensor under a various fault condition. The acquired vibration signals were processed for extracting meaningful information as features. The condition of the brake system can be predicted using a feature… More >

Abstract In automobile, brake system is an essential part responsible for control of the vehicle. Vibration signals of a rotating machine contain the dynamic information about its health condition. Many research papers have reported the suitability of vibration signals for fault diagnosis applications. Many of them are based on (Fast Fourier Transform) FFT, which have their own drawback with nonstationary signals. Hence, there is a need for development of new methodologies to infer diagnostic information from such non stationary signals. This paper uses vibration signals acquired from a hydraulic brake system under good and simulated faulty conditions for the purpose of… More >

Abstract Most of the machineries in small or large scale industry have rotating element supported by bearings for rigid support and accurate movement. For proper functioning of machinery, condition monitoring of the bearing is very important. In present study sound signal is used to continuously monitor bearing health as sound signals of rotating machineries carry dynamic information of components. There are numerous studies in literature that are reporting superiority of vibration signal of bearing fault diagnosis. However, there are very few studies done using sound signal. The cost associated with condition monitoring using sound signal (Microphone) is less than the cost… More >

Abstract In this paper, a data mining model for detecting financial and operational risk indicators by CHAID Decision Tree is presenting. The identification of the risk factors by clarifying the relationship between the variables defines the discovery of knowledge from the financial and operational variables. Automatic and estimation oriented information discovery process coincides the definition of data mining. During the formation of model; an easy to understand, easy to interpret and easy to apply utilitarian model that is far from the requirement of theoretical background is targeted by the discovery of the implicit relationships between the data and the identification of… More >

Abstract The productivity and quality in the turning process can be improved by utilizing the predicted performance of the cutting tools. This research incorporates condition monitoring of a non-carbide tool insert using vibration analysis along with machine learning and fuzzy logic approach. A non-carbide tool insert is considered for the process of cutting operation in a semi-automatic lathe, where the condition of tool is monitored using vibration characteristics. The vibration signals for conditions such as heathy, damaged, thermal and flank were acquired with the help of piezoelectric transducer and data acquisition system. The descriptive statistical features were extracted from the acquired… More >

Abstract This paper presents the fault diagnosis of face milling tool based on machine learning approach. While machining, spindle vibration signals in feed direction under healthy and faulty conditions of the milling tool are acquired. A set of discrete wavelet features is extracted from the vibration signals using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technique. The decision tree technique is used to select significant features out of all extracted wavelet features. C-support vector classification (C-SVC) and ν-support vector classification (ν-SVC) models with different kernel functions of support vector machine (SVM) are used to study and classify the tool condition based on selected features.… More >
