In this paper, a new method for time-varying machine condition monitoring is proposed. By Choi-Williams distribution, the interference terms produced by the bilinear time-frequency transform are reduced and the fault signal is processed by the correlation analysis of the Choi-Williams distribution. For machine fault diagnosis, both the feature extractor and classifier are combined to make a decision. It is particularly suited to those who are not experts in the field. Satisfactory results have been obtained from a real example and the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated.

Two signal classification approaches, based on Wigner-Ville distribution and extended symmetric Itakura distance, are proposed to post-process the time-frequency representations (TFRs) of vibration signatures, with the final aim to arrive at an automated procedure of machine condition monitoring. Three synthetical signals are used to evaluate and compare the classification performance of these techniques. Some related computation issues, such as characters of different TFRs and weighted window length, are discussed. Experimental case studies, joint fault diagnosis, are realized.

Acoustic Emission technique is a successful method in machinery condition monitoring and fault diagnosis due to its high sensitivity on locating micro cracks in high frequency domain. A recently developed method is by using artificial intelligence techniques as tools for routine maintenance. This paper presents a review of recent literature in the field of acoustic emission signal analysis through artificial intelligence in machine conditioning monitoring and fault diagnosis. Many different methods have been previously developed on the basis of intelligent systems such as artificial neural network, fuzzy logic system, Genetic Algorithms, and Support Vector Machine. However, the use of Acoustic Emission signal analysis and artificial intelligence techniques for machine condition monitoring and fault diagnosis is still rare. Although many papers have been written in area of artificial intelligence methods, this paper puts emphasis on Acoustic Emission signal analysis and limits the scope to artificial intelligence methods. In the future, the applications of artificial intelligence in machine condition monitoring and fault diagnosis still need more encouragement and attention due to the gap in the literature.
