Abstract
Interpretation of IE data have been carried out by analyzing IE signals in frequency domain to determine the maximum frequency. However, the current peak frequency method can be inaccurate. The purpose of this research is to introduce features in IE signals that can be used for effective classification and interpretation for bridge deck evaluation through statistical analysis and Naive Bayes classifiers. The dataset contained IE data collected from eight slabs created at Advanced Sensing Technology FAST NDE laboratory (FHWA). A set of statistical features in time domain, normalized peak values, and length of preprocessed signals were used to classify the IE data, statistically. Then, Naive Bayes classifiers was employed to recognize defect area. Finally, the result of statistical classification was compared with frequency approach. The result shows that 19 and 21% of the IE signals collected from the defect area have multiple peaks, respectively. However, 85% of the IE signals collected from the sound set had only one peak. A probability classifier was used to find the relationship between the result of the frequency method and statistical analysis. The result shows that 10% of the IE signals were usable for estimating the thickness in the sound group.
