In this paper, a diagnosis method for switch open-circuit faults in three-phase PWM inverters is proposed, which employs support vector machine (SVM) as classifying method. At first, a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used to detect a discontinuity of currents due to the fault, and then the features for fault diagnosis are extracted. Next, these features are employed as inputs for the SVM training. After training, the SVM produces an optimized boundary which is used identifying the fault. Finally, the fault classification is performed online with instantaneous features. The experimental results have verified the validity of the proposed estimation algorithm.

To enhance the fault diagnosis ability for the dissolved gas analysis(DGA) of the power transformer, this paper proposes a learning vector quantization(LVQ) for the incipient fault recognition. LVQ is suitable expecially for pattern recognition such as fault diagnosis of power transformer using DGA because it improves the performance of Kohonen neural network by placing emphasis on the classification around the decision boundary. The capabilities of the proposed diagnosis system for the transformer DGA decision support have been extensively verified through the practical test data collected from Korea Electrical Power Corporation.

In recent years, a pattern recognition method has been widely used by researchers for fault diagnoses of mechanical systems. A pattern recognition method determines the soundness of a mechanical system by detecting variations in the system's vibration characteristics. Hidden Markov model has recently been used as pattern recognition methods in various fields. In this study, a HMM method for the fault diagnosis of a mechanical system is introduced, and a rotating machine with mass unbalance is selected for fault diagnosis. Moreover, a diagnosis procedure to identity the size of a defect is proposed in this study.

The necessity of diagnosis of the rotating machinery which is widely used in the industry is increasing. Many research has been conducted to manipulate field vibration signal data for diagnosing the fault of designated machinery. As the pattern recognition tool of that signal, neural network which use usually back-propagation algorithm was used in the diagnosis of rotating machinery. In this paper, self-organizing feature map(SOFM) which is unsupervised learning algorithm is used in the abnormal vibration diagnosis of rotating machinery and then learning vector quantization(LVQ) which is supervised teaming algorithm is used to improve the quality of the classifier decision regions.

Fertilization increases the crop productivity and produces high quality seedlings for plantation. We quantitatively measured both physical performances and nutrient responses of Fraxinus rhynchophylla, Fraxinus mandshurica, Pinus koraiensis, and Abies holophylla seedlings, which are commercially planted species in Korea, to nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilization. We analyzed the growth performances by using Dickson's quality index (QI) and the nutrient status by using vector diagnosis. Nitrogen or phosphorus treatment increased height and root collar diameter growth of F. rhynchophylla and F. mandshurica, however, did not increase those of P. koraiensis and A. holophylla. The order of QI was N > P > K > control for F. rhynchophylla, P ${\geq}$ N > Control ${\geq}$ P for F. mandshurica, P > Control ${\geq}$ K > N for P. koraiensis and A. holophylla. In F. rhynchophylla, fertilization diluted N concentration in tissues by 5-25% because growth responses were higher than fertilization uptake. P. koraiensis and A. holophylla showed N excess showing "toxic accumulation". F. rhynchophylla and F. mandshurica showed P deficiency with P fertilization, however, P. koraiensis and A. holophylla showed "luxury accumulation". Vector diagnosis indicated that more fertilization was applicable for F. rhynchophylla and F. mandshurica, and high fertilization rates were inefficient for P. koraiensis and A. holophylla. Both QI and vector diagnosis can be applied to verify seedling quality in the light of growth responses and nutrient status in fertilization trials.

In this paper, we propose a method to use PV(Park's Vector) pattern for inductive motor stator fault diagnosis using CNN(Convolution Neural Network). The conventional CNN based fault diagnosis method was performed by imaging three-phase currents, but this method was troublesome to perform normalization by artificially setting the starting point and phase of current. However, when using PV pattern, the problem of normalization could be solved because the 3-phase current shows a certain circular pattern. In addition, the proposed method is proved to be superior in the accuracy of CNN by 18.18[%] compared to the previous current data image due to the autonomic normalization.

In this paper, we propose a new dataset for AI diagnosis and BLDC motor diagnosis in UAV. In the diagnosis of BLDC motor, PVA(Park's Vector Approach) is difficult to apply due to many ripples of frequency components. However, since the components of ripples are the third harmonics, we propose a method to utilize PVA as circle fitting by applying Savitzky-Golay filter which is excellent for the third harmonics. On the other hand, PVA, a technique to convert from three-phase to two-phase, is always based on the origin during the transformation process. This study demonstrates that the error of the origin and the measured center can be detected and diagnosed in the application process of Circle fitting, and that it can be used as a new data set of AI technology.

Induction motors are critical components in industrial processes since their failure usually lead to an unexpected interruption at the industrial plant. The studies of induction motor behavior during abnormal conditions and the possibility to diagnose different types of faults have been a challenging topic for many electrical machine researchers. In this regard, an efficient and new method to detect the induction motor-fault may be the application of the Time Synchronous Averaging (TSA) to the stator current Park's Vector. The aim of this paper is to present a methodology by which defects in a three-phase wound rotor induction motor can be diagnosed. By exploiting the cyclostationarity characteristics of electrical signals, the TSA method is applied to the stator current Park's Vector, allowing the monitoring of the induction motor operation. Simulation and experimental results are presented in order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. The obtained results are largely satisfactory, indicating a promising industrial application of the hybrid Park's Vector-TSA approach.

In this paper, an auto-diagnosis method of the stator winding fault for small induction motor is suggested. 3-phase stator currents are sampled, filtered, and transformed with Park's vector transformation. After then Park's vector patterns are obtained. To detect the stator winding fault automatically, a distortion ratio (id/iq) is newly defined and compared with the one of healthy motor, and the threshold levels are suggested. The 2-turn, 4-turn, 8-turn winding fault are tested with no load, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% rated load. The distortion ratio of the Park's vector patterns are increased as the increase of the faulted turns, but are same as the increase of the load.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to apply the machine and deep learning methodology on error terms which are continuously auto-generated on the sensors with specific time period and prove the improvement effects of power generator prediction diagnosis system by comparing detection ability. Methods: The SVM(Support Vector Machine) and MLP(Multi Layer Perception) learning procedures were applied for predicting the target values and sequentially producing the error terms for confirming the detection improvement effects of suggested application. For checking the effectiveness of suggested procedures, several detection methodologies such as Cusum and EWMA were used for the comparison. Results: The statistical analysis result shows that without noticing the sequential trivial changes on current diagnosis system, suggested approach based on the error term diagnosis is sensing the changes in the very early stages. Conclusion: Using pattern of error terms as a diagnosis tool for the safety control process with SVM and MLP learning procedure, unusual symptoms could be detected earlier than current prediction system. By combining the suggested error term management methodology with current process seems to be meaningful for sustainable safety condition by early detecting the symptoms.
