In this paper, an explainable AI-based fault diagnosis model for bearings is proposed with five stages, i.e., (1) a data preprocessing method based on the Stockwell Transformation Coefficient (STC) is proposed to analyze the vibration signals for variable speed and load conditions, (2) a statistical feature extraction method is introduced to capture the significance from the invariant pattern of the analyzed data by STC, (3) an explainable feature selection process is proposed by introducing a wrapper-based feature selector—Boruta, (4) a feature filtration method is considered on the top of the feature selector to avoid the multicollinearity problem, and finally, (5) an additive Shapley explanation followed by k-NN is proposed to diagnose and to explain the individual decision of the k-NN classifier for debugging the performance of the diagnosis model. Thus, the idea of explainability is introduced for the first time in the field of bearing fault diagnosis in two steps: (a) incorporating explainability to the feature selection process, and (b) interpretation of the classifier performance with respect to the selected features. The effectiveness of the proposed model is demonstrated on two different datasets obtained from separate bearing testbeds. Lastly, an assessment of several state-of-the-art fault diagnosis algorithms in rotating machinery is included.

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.

Fault Feature Extraction

Fault diagnosis of rolling bearings is not a trivial task because fault-induced periodic transient impulses are always submerged in environmental noise as well as large accidental impulses and attenuated by transmission path. In most hybrid diagnostic methods available for rolling bearings, the problems lie in twofolds. First, most optimization indices used in the individual signal processing stage do not take the periodical characteristic of fault transient impulses into consideration. Second, the individual stages make use of different optimization indices resulting in inconsistent optimization directions and possibly an unsatisfied diagnosis. To solve these problems, a multistage fault feature extraction method of consistent optimization for rolling bearings based on correlated kurtosis (CK) is proposed where maximum correlated kurtosis deconvolution (MCKD) is employed to attenuate the influence of transmission path followed by tunable Q factor wavelet transform (TQWT) to further enhance fault features by decomposing the preprocessed signals into multiple subbands under different Q values. The major contribution of the proposed approach is to consistently use CK as an optimization index of both MCKD and TQWT. The subband signal with the maximum CK which is an index being able to measure the periodical transient impulses in vibration signal yields an envelope spectrum, from which fault diagnosis is implemented. Simulated and experimental signals verified the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.

To improve the accuracy of rolling-bearing fault diagnosis and solve the problem of incomplete information about the feature-evaluation method of the single-measurement model, this paper combines the advantages of various measurement models and proposes a fault-diagnosis method based on multi-measurement hybrid-feature evaluation. In this study, an original feature set was first obtained through analyzing a collected vibration signal. The feature set included time- and frequency-domain features, and also, based on the empirical-mode decomposition (EMD)-obtained time-frequency domain, energy and Lempel–Ziv complexity features. Second, a feature-evaluation framework of multiplicative hybrid models was constructed based on correlation, distance, information, and other measures. The framework was used to rank features and obtain rank weights. Then the weights were multiplied by the features to obtain a new feature set. Finally, the fault-feature set was used as the input of the category-divergence fault-diagnosis model based on kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), and the fault-diagnosis model was based on a support vector machine (SVM). The clustering effect of different fault categories was more obvious and classification accuracy was improved.

To increase fault classification performance and reduce computational complexity,the feature selection process has been used for fault diagnosis.In this paper, we proposed a sparse representation based feature selection method and gave detailed procedure of the algorithm. Traditional selecting methods based on wavelet package decomposition and Bhattacharyya distance methods,and sparse methods, including sparse representation classifier, sparsity preserving projection and sparse principal component analysis,were compared to the proposed method.Simulations showed the proposed selecting method gave better performance on fault diagnosis with Tennessee Eastman Process data.
