Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) is a new noise-assisted data analysis (NADA) method. The effect of EEMD depends on two key parameters which are the amplitude of white noise and the ensemble times. However, the shortcoming of EEMD is that it lacks adaptability and reliability because these two key important parameters are obtained by experience and human intervention. An Improved Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition method is proposed in this paper, by adding white noise and ascertaining ensemble number adaptively. The criterion of adding white noise in Improved EEMD is established, by which a composite simulation signal could be adaptively and accurately decomposed into IMFs without mode mixing. The proposed method is applied to a gear fault detection of hot strip finishing mills. The result shows that Improved EEMD method successfully extracts the gear fault feature with high precise diagnosis results.

A new method on fault diagnosis for gear based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition and slice bi-spectrum is proposed. Firstly, fault signal was decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode function components of different frequency bands by EEMD, and then calculated the envelope signal of IMF component by Hilbert demodulation method. Finally, analyzed the envelope signal by slice bi-spectrum and extracted the fault characteristic frequency. The anti-alias decomposition capacity of EEMD and capabilities of noise suppression and non-quadratic phase coupling harmonic components elimination of slice bi-spectrum were verified by analyzing the simulation signal. The analysis results of gear pitting failure signal and gear wear fault signal showed that this method could judge gear fault type accurately and has a certainly degree reliability.

Focus on the nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics of gear box vibration signal, the method of gear fault diagnosis based on Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) and multiscale entropy (MSE) was proposed . The complicated signal can be decomposed into several stationary IMF components with reality meanings by EEMD which has the advantages of eliminating aliasing state of vibration signal, and the MSE can extract the fault feature from the signals effectively. The concepts of EEMD and MSE are introduced firstly, and then they are applied to measure the complexity of gearbox signals. Through the engineering application of the diagnosis on gear typical fault of different wearing degree demonstrated that the proposed method can extracting the fault feature of gear fault effectively and realize the gear fault diagnosis.

Photoplethysmography (PPG) has been widely used in noninvasive blood volume and blood flow detection since its first appearance. However, its noninvasiveness also makes the PPG signals vulnerable to noise interference and thus exhibits nonlinear and nonstationary characteristics, which have brought difficulties for the denoising of PPG signals. Ensemble empirical mode decomposition known as EEMD, which has made great progress in noise processing, is a noise-assisted nonlinear and nonstationary time series analysis method based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD). The EEMD method solves the “mode mixing” problem in EMD effectively, but it can do nothing about the “end effect,” another problem in the decomposition process. In response to this problem, an improved EEMD method based on support vector regression extension (SVR-EEMD) is proposed and verified by simulated data and real-world PPG data. Experiments show that the SVR-EEMD method can solve the “end effect” efficiently to get a better decomposition performance than the traditional EEMD method and bring more benefits to the noise processing of PPG signals.

Vibration signals of rotating machinery on the base are very weak and always buried in noisy noise; the common denoising methods have become powerless. It presents an ensemble empirical mode decomposition method (EEMD) that is used to denoise for the base vibration signal, which not only to overcome the problem of mode mixing, but also to avoid the selection of wavelet basis function and decomposition level of the problem. Experimental results of simulation and measured data show that EEMD method can effectively reduce the base vibration signal noise, which is better than the wavelet and EMD denoising method.

Condition monitoring and fault diagnosis for rolling element bearings is an imperative part for preventive maintenance procedures and reliability improvement of rotating machines. When a localized fault occurs at the early stage of real bearing failures, the impulses generated by the defect are relatively weak and usually overwhelmed by large noise and other higher-level macro-structural vibrations generated by adjacent machine components and machines. To indicate the bearing faulty state as early as possible, it is necessary to develop an effective signal processing method for extracting the weak bearing signal from a vibration signal containing multiple vibration sources. The ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method inherits the advantage of the popular empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method and can adaptively decompose a multi-component signal into a number of different bands of simple signal components. However, the energy dispersion and many redundant components make the decomposition result obtained by the EEMD losing the physical significance. In this paper, to enhance the decomposition performance of the EEMD method, the similarity criterion and the corresponding combination technique are proposed to determine the similar signal components and then generate the real mono-component signals. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, it is applied to analyze raw vibration signals collected from two faulty bearings, each of which involves more than one vibration sources. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can accurately extract the bearing feature signal; meanwhile, it makes the physical meaning of each IMF clear.
