Abstract A bearing fault diagnosis method based on the Markov transition field (MTF) and SEnet (SE)-IShufflenetV2 model is proposed in this paper due to the problems of complex working conditions, low fault diagnosis accuracy, and poor generalization of rolling bearing. Firstly, MTF is used to encode one-dimensional time series vibration signals and convert them into time-dependent and unique two-dimensional feature images. Then, the generated two-dimensional dataset is fed into the SE-IShufflenetV2 model for training to achieve fault feature extraction and classification. This paper selects the bearing fault datasets from Case Western Reserve University and Paderborn University… More >

Abstract Imbalanced data classification is the task of classifying datasets where there is a significant disparity in the number of samples between different classes. This task is prevalent in practical scenarios such as industrial fault diagnosis, network intrusion detection, cancer detection, etc. In imbalanced classification tasks, the focus is typically on achieving high recognition accuracy for the minority class. However, due to the challenges presented by imbalanced multi-class datasets, such as the scarcity of samples in minority classes and complex inter-class relationships with overlapping boundaries, existing methods often do not perform well in multi-class imbalanced data… More >

Abstract Network fault diagnosis methods play a vital role in maintaining network service quality and enhancing user experience as an integral component of intelligent network management. Considering the unique characteristics of edge networks, such as limited resources, complex network faults, and the need for high real-time performance, enhancing and optimizing existing network fault diagnosis methods is necessary. Therefore, this paper proposes the lightweight edge-side fault diagnosis approach based on a spiking neural network (LSNN). Firstly, we use the Izhikevich neurons model to replace the Leaky Integrate and Fire (LIF) neurons model in the LSNN model. Izhikevich… More >

Abstract Deep neural networks have been widely applied to bearing fault diagnosis systems and achieved impressive success recently. To address the problem that the insufficient fault feature extraction ability of traditional fault diagnosis methods results in poor diagnosis effect under variable load and noise interference scenarios, a rolling bearing fault diagnosis model combining Multi-Scale Convolutional Neural Network (MSCNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) fused with attention mechanism is proposed. To adaptively extract the essential spatial feature information of various sizes, the model creates a multi-scale feature extraction module using the convolutional neural network (CNN) learning process.… More >
