Anomaly Data Detection Structural Health Monitoring, SHM

Data anomaly detection for structural health monitoring by multi-view representation based on local binary patterns

by 唐志一|Published 2023年 12月 6日

Abstract: Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems provide opportunities to understand the structural behaviors remotely in real-time. However, anomalous measurement data are frequently collected from structures, which greatly affect the results of further analyses. Hence, detecting anomalous data is crucial for SHM systems. In this article, we present a simple yet efficient approach that incorporates complementary information obtained from multi-view local binary patterns (LBP) and random forests (RF) to distinguish data anomalies. Acceleration data are first converted into gray-scale image data. The LBP texture features are extracted in three different views from the converted images, which are further aggregated as the anomaly representation for the final RF prediction. Consequently, multiple types of data anomalies can be accurately identified. Extensive experiments validated on an acceleration dataset acquired on a long-span cable-stayed bridge highlight the advantages of the proposed method. State-of-the-art performances are achieved by the proposed method, demonstrating its effectiveness and generalization ability.

Compressive-sensing datareconstruction for structural healthmonitoring: a machine-learningapproach

Compressive sensing has been studied and applied in structural health monitoring for data acquisition and reconstruction, wireless data transmission, structural modal identification, and spare damage identification. The key issue in compressive sensing is finding the optimal solution for sparse optimization. In the past several years, many algorithms have been proposed in the field of applied mathematics. In this article, we propose a machine learning–based approach to solve the compressive-sensing data-reconstruction problem. By treating a computation process as a data flow, the solving process of compressive sensing–based data reconstruction is formalized into a standard supervised-learning task. The prior knowledge, i.e. the basis matrix and the compressive sensing–sampled signals, is used as the input and the target of the network; the basis coefficient matrix is embedded as the parameters of a certain …

Clarifying and quantifying the geometric correlation forprobability distributions of inter-sensor monitoring data: Afunctional data analytic methodology

In structural health monitoring (SHM), revealing the underlying correlations of monitoring data is of considerable significance, both theoretically and practically. In contrast to the traditional correlation analysis for numerical data, this study seeks to analyse the correlation of probability distributions of inter-sensor monitoring data. Due to induced by some commonly shared random excitations, many structural responses measured at different locations are usually correlated in distributions. Clarifying and quantifying such distributional correlations not only enables a more comprehensive understanding of the essential dependence properties of SHM data, but also has appealing application values; however, statistical methods pertinent to this topic are rare. To this end, this article proposes a novel approach using functional data analysis techniques. The monitoring data collected by each sensor are divided into time …

Group sparsity-aware convolutionalneural network for continuous missingdata recovery of structural healthmonitoring

In structural health monitoring, data quality is crucial to the performance of data-driven methods for structural damage identification, condition assessment, and safety warning. However, structural health monitoring systems often suffer from data imperfection, resulting in some entries being unusable in a data matrix. Discrete missing points are relatively easy to recover based on known adjacent points, whereas segments of continuous missing data are more common and also more challenging to recover in a practical scenario. Formulating the data recovery task as an optimization problem for matrix completion, we present a convolutional neural network to achieve simultaneous recovery for multi-channel data with the awareness of group sparsity. The data recovery process based on compressive sensing is formulated as a regression problem and achieved in the neural network. The basis matrix is utilized as the …

An interpretable deep learning method for identifying extreme events under faulty data interference

Structural health monitoring systems continuously monitor the operational state of structures, generating a large amount of monitoring data during the process. The structural responses of extreme events, such as earthquakes, ship collisions, or typhoons, could be captured and further analyzed. However, it is challenging to identify these extreme events due to the interference of faulty data. Real-world monitoring systems suffer from frequent misidentification and false alarms. Unfortunately, it is difficult to improve the system’s built-in algorithms, especially the deep neural networks, partly because the current neural networks only output results and do not provide an interpretable decision-making basis. In this study, a deep learning-based method with visual interpretability is proposed to identify seismic data under sensor faults interference. The transfer learning technique is employed to learn the features of seismic data and faulty data with efficiency. A post-hoc interpretation algorithm termed Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) is embedded into the neural networks to uncover the interest regions that support the output decision. The in-situ seismic responses of a cable-stayed long-span bridge are used for method verification. The results show that the proposed method can effectively identify seismic data mixed with various types of faulty data while providing good interpretability.
