Although some traditional autoencoders and their extensions have been widely used in the research of intelligent fault diagnosis of rotating parts, their feature extraction capabilities are limited without label information. In response to this problem, this research proposes a hierarchical sparse discriminant autoencoder (HSDAE) method for fault diagnosis of rotating components, which is a new semi-supervised autoencoder structure. By considering the sparsity of autoencoders, a hierarchical sparsity strategy was proposed to improve the stacked sparsity autoencoders, and the particle swarm optimization algorithm was used to obtain the optimal sparsity parameters to improve network performance. In order to enhance the classification of the autoencoder, a class aggregation and class separability strategy was used, which is an additional discriminative distance that was added as a penalty term in the loss function to enhance the feature extraction ability of the network. Finally, the reliability of the proposed method was verified on the bearing data set of Case Western Reserve University and the bearing data set of the laboratory test platform. The results of comparison with other methods show that the HSDAE method can enhance the feature extraction ability of the network and has reliability and stability for different data sets.

The bearing is a component of the support shaft that guides the rotational movement of the shaft, widely used in the mechanical industry and also called a mechanical joint. In bearing fault diagnosis, the accuracy much depends on the feature extraction, which always needs a lot of training samples and classification in the commonly used methods. Neural networks are good at latent feature extraction and fault classification, however, they have problems with instability and over-fitting, and more labeled samples must be trained. Switchable normalization and semi-supervised learning are introduced to solve the above obstacles in this paper, which proposes a novel bearing fault diagnosis method based on switchable normalization semi-supervised generative adversarial networks (SN-SSGAN) with 1-dimensional representation of vibration signals as input. Experimental results showed that the proposed method has a desirable 99.93% classification accuracy in the case of less labeled data from the public data set of West Reserve University, which is better than the state-of-the-art methods.

Fault diagnosis of rolling bearings is of great significance to ensure the production efficiency of rotating machinery as well as personal safety. In recent years, machine learning has shown great potential in signal feature extraction and pattern recognition, and it is superior to traditional fault diagnosis methods in dealing with big data. However, most of the current intelligent diagnostic methods are based on the ideal conditions that bearing data set and label information are sufficient, which are often not always available in engineering practice. In response to this problem, this paper proposes to use probabilistic mixture model (PMM) to approximate the data distribution of the bearing signal, and then use Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm to sample the probabilistic model to expand the fault data set. In addition, Semi-supervised Ladder Network (SSLN) can achieve the effect of supervised learning classifier with only a few labeled samples. Based on Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) Bearing Database, the recognition accuracy of the proposed PMM-SSLN model can reach 99.5%, and the experimental results show that this model is applicable to the case where both bearing data set and label information are insufficient.

AbstractAlthough convolutional neural networks have achieved success in the field of image classification, there are still challenges in the field of agricultural product quality sorting such as machine vision-based jujube defects detection. The performance of jujube defect detection mainly depends on the feature extraction and the classifier used. Due to the diversity of the jujube materials and the variability of the testing environment, the traditional method of manually extracting the features often fails to meet the requirements of practical application. In this paper, a jujube sorting model in small data sets based on convolutional neural network and transfer learning is proposed to meet the actual demand of jujube defects detection. Firstly, the original images collected from the actual jujube sorting production line were pre-processed, and the data were augmented to establish a data set of five categories of jujube defects. The original CNN model is then improved by embedding the SE module and using the triplet loss function and the center loss function to replace the softmax loss function. Finally, the depth pre-training model on the ImageNet image data set was used to conduct training on the jujube defects data set, so that the parameters of the pre-training model could fit the parameter distribution of the jujube defects image, and the parameter distribution was transferred to the jujube defects data set to complete the transfer of the model and realize the detection and classification of the jujube defects. The classification results are visualized by heatmap through the analysis of classification accuracy and confusion matrix compared with the comparison models. The experimental results show that the SE-ResNet50-CL model optimizes the fine-grained classification problem of jujube defect recognition, and the test accuracy reaches 94.15%. The model has good stability and high recognition accuracy in complex environments.

The field of mechanical fault diagnosis has entered the era of “big data”. However, existing diagnostic algorithms, relying on artificial feature extraction and expert knowledge are of poor extraction ability and lack self-adaptability in the mass data. In the fault diagnosis of rotating machinery, due to the accidental occurrence of equipment faults, the proportion of fault samples is small, the samples are imbalanced, and available data are scarce, which leads to the low accuracy rate of the intelligent diagnosis model trained to identify the equipment state. To solve the above problems, an end-to-end diagnosis model is first proposed, which is an intelligent fault diagnosis method based on one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN). That is to say, the original vibration signal is directly input into the model for identification. After that, through combining the convolutional neural network with the generative adversarial networks, a data expansion method based on the one-dimensional deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (1D-DCGAN) is constructed to generate small sample size fault samples and construct the balanced data set. Meanwhile, in order to solve the problem that the network is difficult to optimize, gradient penalty and Wasserstein distance are introduced. Through the test of bearing database and hydraulic pump, it shows that the one-dimensional convolution operation has strong feature extraction ability for vibration signals. The proposed method is very accurate for fault diagnosis of the two kinds of equipment, and high-quality expansion of the original data can be achieved.

Bearing Fault Diagnosis

Feature extraction is one of the most difficult aspects of mechanical fault diagnosis, and it is directly related to the accuracy of bearing fault diagnosis. In this study, improved permutation entropy (IPE) is defined as the feature for bearing fault diagnosis. In this method, ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), a self-adaptive time-frequency analysis method, is used to process the vibration signals, and a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) can thus be obtained. A feature extraction strategy based on statistical analysis is then presented for IPE, where the so-called optimal number of permutation entropy (PE) values used for an IPE is adaptively selected. The obtained IPE-based samples are then input to a support vector machine (SVM) model. Subsequently, a trained SVM can be constructed as the classifier for bearing fault diagnosis. Finally, experimental vibration signals are applied to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, and the results show that the proposed method can effectively and accurately diagnose bearing faults, such as inner race faults, outer race faults, and ball faults.

Sequential sampling models for estimation and classification of the incidence of powdery mildew (caused by Podosphaera macularis) on hop (Humulus lupulus) cones were developed using parameter estimates of the binary power law derived from the analysis of 221 transect data sets (model construction data set) collected from 41 hop yards sampled in Oregon and Washington from 2000 to 2005. Stop lines, models that determine when sufficient information has been collected to estimate mean disease incidence and stop sampling, for sequential estimation were validated by bootstrap simulation using a subset of 21 model construction data sets and simulated sampling of an additional 13 model construction data sets. Achieved coefficient of variation (C) approached the prespecified C as the estimated disease incidence, [Formula: see text], increased, although achieving a C of 0.1 was not possible for data sets in which [Formula: see text] < 0.03 with the number of sampling units evaluated in this study. The 95% confidence interval of the median difference between [Formula: see text] of each yard (achieved by sequential sampling) and the true p of the original data set included 0 for all 21 data sets evaluated at levels of C of 0.1 and 0.2. For sequential classification, operating characteristic (OC) and average sample number (ASN) curves of the sequential sampling plans obtained by bootstrap analysis and simulated sampling were similar to the OC and ASN values determined by Monte Carlo simulation. Correct decisions of whether disease incidence was above or below prespecified thresholds (pt) were made for 84.6 or 100% of the data sets during simulated sampling when stop lines were determined assuming a binomial or beta-binomial distribution of disease incidence, respectively. However, the higher proportion of correct decisions obtained by assuming a beta-binomial distribution of disease incidence required, on average, sampling 3.9 more plants per sampling round to classify disease incidence compared with the binomial distribution. Use of these sequential sampling plans may aid growers in deciding the order in which to harvest hop yards to minimize the risk of a condition called “cone early maturity” caused by late-season infection of cones by P. macularis. Also, sequential sampling could aid in research efforts, such as efficacy trials, where many hop cones are assessed to determine disease incidence.

Bearing Fault Diagnosis

There are mainly two problems with the current feature extraction methods used in the electrostatic monitoring of rolling bearings, which affect their abilities to identify early faults: (1) since noises are mixed in the electrostatic signals, it is difficult to extract weak early fault features; (2) traditional time and frequency domain features have limited ability to provide a quantitative indicator of degradation state. With regard to these two problems, a new feature extraction method for rolling bearing fault diagnosis by electrostatic monitoring sensors is proposed in this paper. First, the spectrum interpolation is adopted to suppress the power-frequency interference in the electrostatic signal. Then the resultant signal is used to construct Hankel matrix, the number of useful components is automatically selected based on the difference spectrum of singular values, after that the signal is reconstructed to remove background noises and random pulses. Finally, the permutation entropy of the denoised signal is calculated and smoothed using the exponential weighted moving average method, which is used to be a quantitative indicator of bearing performance state. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively remove noises and significantly bring forward the time when early faults are detected.
