  • Fault prediction model in wind turbines using deep learning structure with enhanced optimisation algorithm
    Mahendra Bhatu Gawali, Swapnali Sunil Gawali, Megharani Patil
    Journal of Control and Decision, 2025
    Digital Twin (DT) is used for lifetime monitoring of the drive train and can be a costly option. This proposal adopts the predictive modelling of wind turbines by digital twins by deep learning strategies. Initially, the data is acquired from publicly available wind turbine datasets. Next, the deep features and statistical features are extracted, and the autoencoder is adapted to get the deep features. Then, the Enhanced Marine Predators Algorithm (EMPA) is to select the optimal weighted fused features, where the EMPA would tune the weights used for fusion and the features selection. Finally, the predictive modelling is done via a newly recommended Adaptive Deep Temporal Convolution Network with an Attention Mechanism (ADTCN-AM). It is tuned for precise outcomes with the help of EMPA for forecasting the wind speed and predicting the generated power. The comparative performance analysis of the recently used wind prediction system model shows better efficient results.

    Nitin L. Shelake, Mahendra Gawali
    2024 3rd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Computational Electronics and Communication System Aicecs 2024, 2024
    Class imbalance is a significant obstacle in machine learning, causing biased model results and constraining generalization abilities. This systematic survey reviews machine learning classifier systems designed to mitigate class imbalance challenges. The objective is to analyze the effectiveness of various techniques in overcoming imbalance hurdles. The survey defines class imbalance and its implications for model training and evaluation. It categorizes approaches into data-level, algorithm-level, and hybrid methods, including oversampling, undersampling, cost-sensitive learning, ensembles, and deep learning. Each category is explored to provide insights into strengths, limitations, and applicability. Evaluation metrics tailored for imbalanced datasets are scrutinized, emphasizing the importance of metrics prioritizing minority class performance. Challenges in evaluating classifier systems in imbalanced settings are discussed, with guidance on metric selection. Recent advancements and trends in handling class imbalance, such as active learning and interpretable methods, are highlighted. Key challenges like scalability, interpretability, and algorithmic robustness are identified, with discussions on open research directions. This survey aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of classifier systems for class imbalance, aiding researchers and practitioners. By synthesizing recent literature and analyzing imbalance challenges, this study contributes to advancing knowledge in this vital area of machine learning
  • Advancing Offshore Wind Turbine Energy Generation Prediction Through Comparative Analysis and Novel Machine Learning Techniques
    Chaitanya P. Kale, Mahendra B. Gawali
    2024 IEEE International Conference on Smart Power Control and Renewable Energy Icspcre 2024, 2024
    The necessity for this work arises from the critical need to accurately predict energy generation from offshore wind turbines, pivotal in ensuring efficient energy management and grid integration process. While existing studies have made strides, they are often limited by their reliance on simplistic models or a lack of comprehensive comparative analyses. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel approach integrating advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms with state-of-the-art techniques. The proposed model leverages a comprehensive comparative analysis of ML algorithms, including Linear Regression, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, Support Vector Machines (SVM), and Neural Networks (NN), to identify the most effective predictive model. By considering parameters such as tower height and blade length, the model achieves superior accuracy and robustness in energy generation prediction. Furthermore, this study introduces novel methodologies, including ensemble learning, transfer learning, explainable AI (XAI), ML techniques to enhance predictive performance and interpretability sets. By incorporating advanced time-series analysis and Bayesian optimization, the model captures temporal dependencies and efficiently optimizes hyperparameters, respectively, elevating its predictive capabilities. The impact of this work extends beyond academia, with implications for industry stakeholders involved in offshore wind energy production. Accurate energy generation predictions empower decision-makers to optimize turbine design and placement, ultimately advancing the transition towards sustainable energy solutions. Moreover, the integration of XAI techniques fosters trust and usability in real-world applications, bridging the gap between predictive accuracy and interpretability sets.
  • A novel human-to-robot interaction model based on transfer expert reinforcement learning with recurrent neural network
    Mahendra Bhatu Gawali, Swapnali Sunil Gawali, Megharani Patil, Anand Khandare
    Journal of Autonomous Intelligence, 2024
    <p>The control tasks related to interaction tracking are mainly limited in robot manipulators-based traditional applications. In this, the desired motivations are specified based on the trajectories and the desired positions. The robots are programmed by using the teach-and-playback method in such applications that are assumed to be more convenient. Moreover, the advancements in sensing and robotic methodologies fulfill the satisfactory requirements of more demanding tasks. Several instructions are provided for interacting robots with humans in order to perform a sequence of more difficult tasks. It does not require learning the motions, but it only requires learning the positions of the motions in such applications, and this position is learned by using the robot controller. The major aim of this research work is to develop a new Transfer Expert Reinforcement Learning (TERL) method to offer efficient interaction between humans and computers. In this developed model, Reinforcement Learning (RL) is utilized to observe the movement of the robotic arm. Then, robot movement is considered with the help of a deep learning approach named Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) along with inputs of kinematic movement. Finally, the proposed model achieves a superior rate than conventional approaches in human to human-to-robot interaction model.</p>
  • Intelligent Model for Smart Waste Detection and Segmentation using YOLO v8

    International Conference on Intelligent and Innovative Practices in Engineering and Management 2024 Iipem 2024, 2024
    Object detection is a crucial domain with applications across multiple disciplines. It has demonstrated a significant impact on predicting objects in videos and images. Presently, the majority of cities face the challenge of garbage disposal, making it difficult for humans to segregate waste by category. To tackle this enduring challenge, we propose implementing smart waste detection and segmentation using the YOLOv8 model. Our research focuses on adding categories such as paper, metal, plastic, and others, utilizing the advanced object detection algorithm YOLOv8 for this purpose.
