Fault diagnosis of gearbox based on ant colony algorithm optimized support vector machine
Abstract The kernel function parameter g and penalty factor c in Support Vector Machine (SVM) will have an important impact on the fault classification and performance of the support vector machine. Based on this, a fault analysis and diagnosis model using ant colony algorithm to optimize support vector machine is proposed to improve the accuracy of gearbox fault diagnosis. First, the collected original vibration signal is decomposed by EEMD to obtain the modal function component IMF, and then the energy entropy of the IMF component is calculated as the feature vector of the original vibration signal. Finally, the feature vector is input to the support vector optimized by the ant colony algorithm identify and classify in the machine, and finally get the diagnosis result. Comparing ACO-SVM with SVM, the experimental results prove that the ACO-SVM model has a higher fault diagnosis rate, stronger optimization ability, and faster convergence speed.
