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 >

Abstract Railway switch machine is essential for maintaining the safety and punctuality of train operations. A data-driven fault diagnosis scheme for railway switch machine using tensor machine and multi-representation monitoring data is developed herein. Unlike existing methods, this approach takes into account the spatial information of the time series monitoring data, aligning with the domain expertise of on-site manual monitoring. Besides, a multi-sensor fusion tensor machine is designed to improve single signal data’s limitations in insufficient information. First, one-dimensional signal data is preprocessed and transformed into two-dimensional images. Afterward, the fusion feature tensor is created by More >

Abstract Aiming at the problem of energy storage unit failure in the spring operating mechanism of low voltage circuit breakers (LVCBs). A fault diagnosis algorithm based on an improved Sparrow Search Algorithm (ISSA) optimized Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) is proposed to improve the operational safety of LVCB. Taking the 1.5kV/4000A/75kA LVCB as an example. According to the current operating characteristics of the energy storage motor, fault characteristics are extracted based on Empirical Wavelet Transform (EWT). Traditional BPNN has problems such as difficulty adjusting network weights and thresholds, being sensitive to initial weights, and quickly falling into More >

Abstract The vibration signals of rolling bearings exhibit nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics under the influence of noise. In intelligent fault diagnosis, unprocessed signals will lead to weak fault characteristics and low diagnostic accuracy. To solve the above problem, a fault diagnosis method based on parameter optimization feature mode decomposition and improved deep belief networks is proposed. The feature mode decomposition is used to decompose the vibration signals. The parameter adaptation of feature mode decomposition is implemented by improved whale optimization algorithm including Levy flight strategy and adaptive weight. The selection of activation function and parameters is More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Recent research in cross-domain intelligence fault diagnosis of machinery still has some problems, such as relatively ideal speed conditions and sample conditions. In engineering practice, the rotational speed of the machine is often transient and time-varying, which makes the sample annotation increasingly expensive. Meanwhile, the number of samples collected from different health states is often unbalanced. To deal with the above challenges, a complementary-label (CL) adversarial domain adaptation fault diagnosis network (CLADAN) is proposed under time-varying rotational speed and weakly-supervised conditions. In the weakly supervised learning condition, machine prior information is used for sample annotation More >

Abstract Stirred reactors are key equipment in production, and unpredictable failures will result in significant economic losses and safety issues. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor its health state. To achieve this goal, in this study, five states of the stirred reactor were firstly preset: normal, shaft bending, blade eccentricity, bearing wear, and bolt looseness. Vibration signals along x, y and z axes were collected and analyzed in both the time domain and frequency domain. Secondly, 93 statistical features were extracted and evaluated by ReliefF, Maximal Information Coefficient (MIC) and XGBoost. The above evaluation results were More >

Abstract Due to their robust learning and expression ability for complex features, the deep learning (DL) model plays a vital role in bearing fault diagnosis. However, since there are fewer labeled samples in fault diagnosis, the depth of DL models in fault diagnosis is generally shallower than that of DL models in other fields, which limits the diagnostic performance. To solve this problem, a novel transfer residual Swin Transformer (RST) is proposed for rolling bearings in this paper. RST has 24 residual self-attention layers, which use the hierarchical design and the shifted window-based residual self-attention. Combined More >

Abstract The visions of Industry 4.0 and 5.0 have reinforced the industrial environment. They have also made artificial intelligence incorporated as a major facilitator. Diagnosing machine faults has become a solid foundation for automatically recognizing machine failure, and thus timely maintenance can ensure safe operations. Transfer learning is a promising solution that can enhance the machine fault diagnosis model by borrowing pre-trained knowledge from the source model and applying it to the target model, which typically involves two datasets. In response to the availability of multiple datasets, this paper proposes using selective and adaptive incremental transfer… More >

Abstract Incomplete fault signal characteristics and ease of noise contamination are issues with the current rolling bearing early fault diagnostic methods, making it challenging to ensure the fault diagnosis accuracy and reliability. A novel approach integrating enhanced Symplectic geometry mode decomposition with cosine difference limitation and calculus operator (ESGMD-CC) and artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA) optimized extreme learning machine (ELM) is proposed in this paper to enhance the extraction capability of fault features and thus improve the accuracy of fault diagnosis. Firstly, SGMD decomposes the raw vibration signal into multiple Symplectic geometry components (SGCs). Secondly, the More >
