A Novel Feature Selection Based on VMD and Information Gain for Pipe Blockages

Targeting the challenge of determining the degree of blockage in buried pipelines and the difficulty of effectively extracting blockage features, a blockage detection method integrating variational mode decomposition (VMD) and information gain is proposed. Acoustic impulse response signals were obta...
