A Fault Diagnosis Method of Rotating Machinery Based on One-Dimensional, Self-Normalizing Convolutional Neural Networks

Research on fault diagnosis of rolling bearing based on improved convolutional neural network with sparrow search algorithm

Traditional approaches to the intelligent fault diagnosis of rolling bearings have predominantly relied on manual expertise for feature extraction, a practice that compromises robustness. In addition, the existing convolutional neural network (CNN) is characterized by an overabundance of parameters and a substantial requirement for training samples. To address these limitations, this study introduces a novel fault diagnosis algorithm for rolling bearings, integrating a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1DCNN) with a support vector machine (SVM) to form an enhanced 1DCNN-SVM model. This model is further refined using the sparrow search algorithm (SSA) for the optimal adjustment of the parameters of 1DCNN-SVM. Specifically, by substituting the CNN's final softmax layer with an SVM, the model becomes better suited for processing limited data volumes. In addition, the incorporation of batch normalization and dropout layers within the CNN framework significantly augments its fault classification accuracy for rolling bearings, concurrently mitigating the risk of overfitting. The SSA is subsequently applied to refine three principal hyper-parameters: batch size, initial learning rate, and the L2 regularization coefficient, thereby overcoming the challenges associated with manually adjusting parameters, such as extended processing times and unpredictable outcomes. Empirical tests on Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) datasets revealed the model's superior performance, with the SSA-optimized 1DCNN-SVM showcasing diagnostic accuracies over 98%, marked improvements over conventional models, and a significant reduction in processing times. This method not only marks a significant advancement in intelligent fault diagnosis for rolling bearings but also demonstrates the potential of integrating machine learning for more precise and efficient diagnostics. The SSA-1DCNN-SVM model, optimized for accuracy and minimal data use, sets a new standard in fault diagnosis, relevant for machinery health monitoring and maintenance strategies across various industries.

Rolling Bearing Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Eigenvalue Selection and Dimension Reduction Algorithm

The bearings used in the mechanical equipment that bear and transfer the load are vulnerable parts. In this paper, a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method based on eigenvalue selection and dimensionality reduction is presented. This is suitable for analyzing fault signals with nonstationary characteristics, and it has a good recognition rate. The characteristic quantity of vibration signals in the time domain and the frequency domain is calculated, and the characteristic quantity is selected by calculating the degree of difference. A dimension reduction algorithm is proposed, which is based on a neural network and ISOMAP. Its performance is compared using PCA, LTSA, and ISOMAP algorithms. Fault diagnosis is carried out by using KNN and SVM classification algorithms, and good recognition results are obtained.

Recognition of Abnormal Chest Compression Depth Using One-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks

When the displacement of an object is evaluated using sensor data, its movement back to the starting point can be used to correct the measurement error of the sensor. In medicine, the movements of chest compressions also involve a reciprocating movement back to the starting point. The traditional method of evaluating the effects of chest compression depth (CCD) is to use an acceleration sensor or gyroscope to obtain chest compression movement data; from these data, the displacement value can be calculated and the CCD effect evaluated. However, this evaluation procedure suffers from sensor errors and environmental interference, limiting its applicability. Our objective is to reduce the auxiliary computing devices employed for CCD effectiveness evaluation and improve the accuracy of the evaluation results. To this end, we propose a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) classification method. First, we use the chest compression evaluation criterion to classify the pre-collected sensor signal data, from which the proposed 1D-CNN model learns classification features. After training, the model is used to classify and evaluate sensor signal data instead of distance measurements; this effectively avoids the influence of pressure occlusion and electromagnetic waves. We collect and label 937 valid CCD results from an emergency care simulator. In addition, the proposed 1D-CNN structure is experimentally evaluated and compared against other CNN models and support vector machines. The results show that after sufficient training, the proposed 1D-CNN model can recognize the CCD results with an accuracy rate of more than 95%. The execution time suggests that the model balances accuracy and hardware requirements and can be embedded in portable devices.
