SVM parameters have serious effects on the accuracy rate of classification result. Tuning SVM parameters is always a challenge for scientists. In this paper, a SVM parameter optimization method based on Adaptive Elitist Differential Evolution (AeDE-SVM) is proposed. Furthermore, AeDE-SVM is applied to diagnose roller bearing fault by using complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) and singular value decomposition (SVD) techniques. First, original acceleration vibration signals are decomposed into Intrinsic Mode Function (IMFs) by using CEEMD method. Second, initial feature matrices are extracted from (IMFs) by singular value decomposition (SVD) techniques to obtain single values. Third, these values serve as input vector for AeDE-SVM classifier. The results show that the combination of AeDE-SVM classifiers and the CEEMD-SVD method obtains higher classification accuracy and lower cost time compared to other methods. In this paper, the roller bearing vibration signals were used to evaluate the proposed method. The experimental results showed that the superior performance compared to other SVM parameter optimization techniques and successfully recognized different fault types of roller bearing during its operation.
