An Abnormal Signal Processing Method for Sensors Using Convolution Neural Network

The combination of sensor and neural network (NN) is an important development direction for intelligent sensors. This paper discusses the application of NN in sensor signal processing, introduces the basic principles, and illustrates the application method with examples. Based on the analysis of sensor's abnormal signal processing, a diagnostic scheme based on CNN is proposed. At each current moment, NN is trained by the latest historical dataset of fixed length to complete the forecast of the next moment. The confidence interval is determined by the model's residual of NN. Moreover, this paper proposes a signal noise reduction and compression method of multisensor system using the CNN. A multisensor sequence of noisy output signal and target's true value are used as samples for network training, and the trained network is tested with test samples. The effectiveness of this method is verified by simulation of several typical function approximations. The results strongly suggest the advantages of CNN method for sensor abnormal signal processing and provide a solid foundation for the reliable use of sensors in such type of problems.
