Abstract Electric motor-driven systems are core components across industries, yet they’re susceptible to bearing faults. Manual fault diagnosis poses safety risks and economic instability, necessitating an automated approach. This study proposes FTCNNLSTM (Fine-Tuned TabNet Convolutional Neural Network Long Short-Term Memory), an algorithm combining Convolutional Neural Networks, Long Short-Term Memory Networks, and Attentive Interpretable Tabular Learning. The model preprocesses the CWRU (Case Western Reserve University) bearing dataset using segmentation, normalization, feature scaling, and label encoding. Its architecture comprises multiple 1D Convolutional layers, batch normalization, max-pooling, and LSTM blocks with dropout, followed by batch normalization, dense layers, and More >

Abstract Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are materials used to connect components to one another to form a working circuit. PCBs play a crucial role in modern electronics by connecting various components. The trend of integrating more components onto PCBs is becoming increasingly common, which presents significant challenges for quality control processes. Given the potential impact that even minute defects can have on signal traces, the surface inspection of PCB remains pivotal in ensuring the overall system integrity. To address the limitations associated with manual inspection, this research endeavors to automate the inspection process using the YOLOv8… More >

Abstract Electrolysis tanks are used to smelt metals based on electrochemical principles, and the short-circuiting of the pole plates in the tanks in the production process will lead to high temperatures, thus affecting normal production. Aiming at the problems of time-consuming and poor accuracy of existing infrared methods for high-temperature detection of dense pole plates in electrolysis tanks, an infrared dense pole plate anomalous target detection network YOLOv5-RMF based on You Only Look Once version 5 (YOLOv5) is proposed. Firstly, we modified the Real-Time Enhanced Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (Real-ESRGAN) by changing the U-shaped network (U-Net)… More >

Abstract Accurate and reliable fault detection is essential for the safe operation of electric vehicles. Support vector data description (SVDD) has been widely used in the field of fault detection. However, constructing the hypersphere boundary only describes the distribution of unlabeled samples, while the distribution of faulty samples cannot be effectively described and easily misses detecting faulty data due to the imbalance of sample distribution. Meanwhile, selecting parameters is critical to the detection performance, and empirical parameterization is generally time-consuming and laborious and may not result in finding the optimal parameters. Therefore, this paper proposes a… More >

Abstract Deep learning has emerged in many practical applications, such as image classification, fault diagnosis, and object detection. More recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), representative models of deep learning, have been used to solve fault detection. However, the current design of CNNs for fault detection of wind turbine blades is highly dependent on domain knowledge and requires a large amount of trial and error. For this reason, an evolutionary YOLOv8 network has been developed to automatically find the network architecture for wind turbine blade-based fault detection. YOLOv8 is a CNN-backed object detection model. Specifically, to reduce… More >

Abstract Recently, to build a smart factory, research has been conducted to perform fault diagnosis and defect detection based on vibration and noise signals generated when a mechanical system is driven using deep-learning technology, a field of artificial intelligence. Most of the related studies apply various audio-feature extraction techniques to one-dimensional raw data to extract sound-specific features and then classify the sound by using the derived spectral image as a training dataset. However, compared to numerical raw data, learning based on image data has the disadvantage that creating a training dataset is very time-consuming. Therefore, we… More >
