“…This issue motivated academics to develop artificial expert systems capable of working with databases and extracting useful information using data mining approaches. Generally, to achieve PD source identification, a knowledge base is derived from raw data by feature extraction methods like PRPD patterns [11,12], FFT [13], statistical analysis [14], cepstral features [15], or wavelet patterns [16,17], and then a decision making system such as neural networks [18,19], SVM [20], PSO [19,21], the Bayes theorem, ANFIS [22], k-means and fuzzy c-means [23], or SOM [24] interprets the knowledge base in a meaningful way to discriminate different PD sources. Methodologies depend on the application and equipment under monitoring; introduction of a new knowledge base still helps experts to make decisions with greater reliability.…”
