Purpose The purpose of this paper is to recognize and label the faults in wind turbines with a new density-based clustering algorithm, named contour density scanning clustering (CDSC) algorithm. Design/methodology/approach The algorithm includes four components: (1) computation of neighborhood...

Artificial neural network (ANN) models are designed for suspended sediment estimation using statistical pre-processing of the data. Statistical properties such as cross-, auto- and partial auto-correlation of the data series are used for identifying a unique input vector to the ANN that best...
