An Intelligent Signal Processing Data Denoising Method for Control Systems Protection in the Industrial Internet of Things

초록

The development of the industrial Internet of Things paradigm brings forth the possibility of a significant transformation within the manufacturing industry. This paradigm is based on sensing large amounts of data, so that it can be employed by intelligent control systems (i.e., artificial intelligence algorithms) eliciting optimal decisions in real time. Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the intelligent wireless sensing and control system pipeline is crucial toward achieving this goal. Nevertheless, the presence of noise in actual wireless transmission processes considerably affects the quality of the sensed data. Typically, noise and anomalies present in the data are very difficult to distinguish from each other. Conventional anomaly-detection techniques generate many error reports, which cause the control systems to issue incorrect responses that hinder the industrial production. In this article, a novel solution is proposed to denoise data while simultaneously preserving the actual anomalies. The proposed approach operates by measuring both the neighbor and background contrasts in computing a noise score. The trust level of each data point is then calculated through a correlation measure to purge spurious data. Extensive experiments on real datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach yields effective performance, as compared to existing methods, and it meets the requirements of low latency-facilitating the normal operation of the monitored control systems.
