Abstract
Intelligent fault diagnosis achieves tremendous success in machine fault diagnosis because of the outstanding data-driven capability. However, the severe imbalanced dataset in practical scenarios of industrial rotating machinery is still a big challenge for the development of intelligent fault diagnosis method. In this paper, we solve this issue by constructing a novel deep learning model incorporated with a transfer learning method based on the Time-GAN and Efficient-Net models. Firstly, the proposed model so called Time-GAN-TL extends the imbalanced fault diagnosis of rolling bearings by using time series generative adversarial network. Secondly, balanced vibration signals are converted into two-dimensional images for training and classification by implementing the Efficient-Net into the transfer learning method. Finally, the proposed method is validated using two-types of rolling bearing experimental data. The high-precision diagnosis results of the transfer learning experiments and the comparison with other representative fault diagnosis classification methods reveal the efficiency, reliability, and generalization performance of the presented model.
