Application of correlation matching for automatic bearing fault diagnosis

This paper introduces an automatic feature extraction algorithm for bearing fault diagnosis using correlation filtering-based matching pursuit. This algorithm is described and investigated in theory and practice on both simulated and real bearing vibration signals. First, the vibration model for rolling bearing with fault is derived. Then, the numerical simulation signal being taken as an example, the principle of matching pursuit is mathematically explained and its drawbacks are analyzed. Afterward, to enhance the similarity of model related to the bearing faulty impulses, the model shape parameters are optimized using spectrum kurtosis and smoothing index. After that, the model with optimum shape and period parameters is taken as a template to approximate the impulses in faulty bearing signal. Finally, based on maximizing correlation principle, the optimized cycle parameter being as impuls e repetition period is matched up. The proposed method has been successfully applied in actual vibration signals of rolling element bearing with different faults.     

A Bearing Fault Diagnosis Method Based on PAVME and MEDE

When rolling bearings have a local fault, the real bearing vibration signal related to the local fault is characterized by the properties of nonlinear and nonstationary. To extract the useful fault features from the collected nonlinear and nonstationary bearing vibration signals and improve diagnostic accuracy, this paper proposes a new bearing fault diagnosis method based on parameter adaptive variational mode extraction (PAVME) and multiscale envelope dispersion entropy (MEDE). Firstly, a new method hailed as parameter adaptive variational mode extraction (PAVME) is presented to process the collected original bearing vibration signal and obtain the frequency components related to bearing faults, where its two important parameters (i.e., the penalty factor and mode center-frequency) are automatically determined by whale optimization algorithm. Subsequently, based on the processed bearing vibration signal, an effective complexity evaluation approach named multiscale envelope dispersion entropy (MEDE) is calculated for conducting bearing fault feature extraction. Finally, the extracted fault features are fed into the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) to automatically identify different health conditions of rolling bearing. Case studies and contrastive analysis are performed to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed method can not only effectively extract bearing fault features, but also obtain a high identification accuracy for bearing fault patterns under single or variable speed.     

Adaptive data acquisition in MRI

We propose an adaptive data acquisition technique that depends on the object to be imaged in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. In this paper, we employed a matching pursuit (MP) algorithm to achieve the adaptive data acquisition. Since the matching pursuit is a greedy algorithm to find RF and gradient waveforms which are the best match for an object-signal, the signal can be decomposed with a few iterations and thereby lead reduction of imaging time in MR. To adopt the matching pursuit algorithm to the adaptive data acquisition in MRI, we have designed a dictionary which contains a windowed Fourier basis set. Because the basis set is localized spatially, the image signal could be divided into segmented signals so that matching pursuit with the segmented signals could lead to effective and object-dependent data acquisition. To verify the proposed technique, computer simulations and experiments are performed with a 1.0 T whole body MRI system.

Deceptive Chinese speech detection based on sparse decomposition of cepstral feature

In order to improve the performance of deception detection based on Chinese speech signals, a method of sparse decomposition on spectral feature is proposed. First, the wavelet packet transform is applied to divide the speech signal into multiple sub-bands. Band cepstral features of wavelet packets are obtained by operating the discrete cosine transform on loga?rithmic energy of each sub-band. The cepstral feature is generated by combing Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient and Wavelet Packet Band Cepstral Coefficient. Second, K-singular value decomposition algorithm is employed to achieve the training of an over-complete mixture dictionary based on both the truth and deceptive feature sets, and an orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm is used for sparse coding according to the mixture dictionary to get sparse feature.Finally, recognition experiments axe performed with various classified modules. Experimental results show that the sparse decomposition method has better performance comparied with con?ventional dimension reduced methods. The recognition accuracy of the method proposed in this paper is 78.34%, which is higher than methods using other features, improving the recognition ability of deception detection system significantly.

Identification of multiple transient faults based on the adaptive spectral kurtosis method

This paper proposes a multi-fault detection method based on the adaptive spectral kurtosis (ASK) analysis of the vibration signal from single sensor. A theoretical model of multiple bearing faults is established in this paper. Compared with the kurtogram and protrugram techniques, the proposed method can more effectively extract signatures of multiple bearing faults even in the presence of strong background noise. The performance of the proposed method in fault detection of the rolling element bearings is validated using simulation data and experimental signals from a bearing with multiple faults and two faulty bearings.     

Research on Fault Diagnosis of Rolling Bearings Based on Variational Mode Decomposition Improved by the Niche Genetic Algorithm

Due to the influence of signal-to-noise ratio in the early failure stage of rolling bearings in rotating machinery, it is difficult to effectively extract feature information. Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) has been widely used to decompose vibration signals which can reflect more fault omens. In order to improve the efficiency and accuracy, a method to optimize VMD by using the Niche Genetic Algorithm (NGA) is proposed in this paper. In this method, the optimal Shannon entropy of modal components in a VMD algorithm is taken as the optimization objective, by using the NGA to constantly update and optimize the combination of influencing parameters composed of α and K so as to minimize the local minimum entropy. According to the obtained optimization results, the optimal input parameters of the VMD algorithm were set. The method mentioned is applied to the fault extraction of a simulated signal and a measured signal of a rolling bearing. The decomposition process of the rolling-bearing fault signal was transferred to the variational frame by the NGA-VMD algorithm, and several eigenmode function components were obtained. The energy feature extracted from the modal component containing the main fault information was used as the input vector of a particle swarm optimized support vector machine (PSO-SVM) and used to identify the fault type of the rolling bearing. The analysis results of the simulation signal and measured signal show that: the NGA-VMD algorithm can decompose the vibration signal of a rolling bearing accurately and has a better robust performance and correct recognition rate than the VMD algorithm. It can highlight the local characteristics of the original sample data and reduce the interference of the parameters selected artificially in the VMD algorithm on the processing results, improving the fault-diagnosis efficiency of rolling bearings.     

Intrinsic Dimension Estimation-Based Feature Selection and Multinomial Logistic Regression for Classification of Bearing Faults Using Compressively Sampled Vibration Signals

As failures of rolling bearings lead to major failures in rotating machines, recent vibration-based rolling bearing fault diagnosis techniques are focused on obtaining useful fault features from the huge collection of raw data. However, too many features reduce the classification accuracy and increase the computation time. This paper proposes an effective feature selection technique based on intrinsic dimension estimation of compressively sampled vibration signals. First, compressive sampling (CS) is used to get compressed measurements from the collected raw vibration signals. Then, a global dimension estimator, the geodesic minimal spanning tree (GMST), is employed to compute the minimal number of features needed to represent efficiently the compressively sampled signals. Finally, a feature selection process, combining the stochastic proximity embedding (SPE) and the neighbourhood component analysis (NCA), is used to select fewer features for bearing fault diagnosis. With regression analysis-based predictive modelling technique and the multinomial logistic regression (MLR) classifier, the selected features are assessed in two case studies of rolling bearings vibration signals under different working loads. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can successfully select fewer features, with which the MLR-based trained model achieves high classification accuracy and significantly reduced computation times compared to published research.

基于匹配追踪的拉曼光谱信号重构算法

拉曼光谱技术是一种高灵敏度、无损伤、振动分子光谱技术,在医药、生物、分析化学等诸多领域有着重要的作用。然而,由于拉曼散射强度低,实际测得的拉曼信号容易被噪声所污染。特别是在较短的曝光时间,收集到的拉曼光谱的信噪比很低。因此,提出了一种基于匹配追踪算法的信号重构方法,用于提取低信噪比的拉曼信号。该方法首先通过阈值循环迭代的方法在平均谱上找出特征峰的位置、估计峰的区间。根据峰的位置区间等信息,用高斯密度函数生成字典。在噪声谱上,根据特征峰位置和区间,将其区分为有信号区间和无信号区间,在有信号区间上利用匹配追踪算法重构被噪声所掩盖的拉曼信号。该算法不仅能够很好的逼近掩盖在噪声中的拉曼信号,且在重构信号的过程中也会对基线进行扣除,无须作基线校正处理。在仿真和实验中对该算法与常规算法进行了比较,结果证明,该算法在低信噪比条件下能够较好的恢复拉曼信号。该算法不同于传统光谱去噪算法,能同时对拉曼光谱进行了基线扣除以及噪声的处理,且能取得较为理想的结果,不需要使用不同的算法对基线和噪声分别处理。其次,在算法上我们创造性地将匹配追踪算法用于拉曼光谱信号的稀疏逼近求解。     

A novel adaptive wavelet stripping algorithm for extracting the transients caused by bearing localized faults

Rolling element bearings are widely used in rotating machinery. Its unexpected failure may result in machine breakdown. Whenever a bearing suffers a localized fault, the transients with a potential cyclic characteristic are generated by the rollers striking the localized fault. This phenomenon is an early bearing fault feature. Therefore, the extraction of the transients is beneficial to the identification of the early bearing fault. In this paper, a novel adaptive wavelet stripping algorithm (AWSA) is proposed to extract the simulated transients from an original bearing fault signal. Firstly, the parametric model of anti-symmetric real Laplace wavelet (ARLW) or impulse response wavelet (IRW) is built to approximate the real transients. Then, with the aid of wavelet correlation filtering analysis, the simulated transients with the optimal frequency, damping coefficient and delay time are adaptively peeled from the original bearing fault signal. The spatial reconstruction of the simulated transients reflects the random occurrence of the real transients. In order to boost the computing time of the AWSA, an enhanced AWSA is developed. At last, the bearing fault signals collected from an experimental machine and an industrial machine are used to validate the effectiveness of the AWSA. The results show that the AWSA can adaptively peel the simulated transients from the original bearing fault signals. A comparison with a periodic multi-transient model is conducted to show that the AWSA is better to extract the random characteristics of the real transients.

Three-dimensional sound source localization using distributed microphone arrays

To improve the performance of sound source localization based on distributed microphone arrays in noisy and reverberant environments,a sound source localization method was proposed.This method exploited the inherent spatial sparsity to convert the localization problem into a sparse recovery problem based on the compressive sensing(CS) theory.In this method two-step discrete cosine transform(DCT)-based feature extraction was utilized to cover both short-time and long-time properties of the signal and reduce the dimensions of the sparse model.Moreover,an online dictionary learning(DL) method was used to dynamically adjust the dictionary for matching the changes of audio signals,and then the sparse solution could better represent location estimations.In addition,we proposed an improved approximate l_0norm minimization algorithm to enhance reconstruction performance for sparse signals in low signal-noise ratio(SNR).The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by simulation results where the locations of multiple sources can be obtained in the noisy and reverberant conditions.     

Maximum cross-correlated kurtosis-based unsaturated stochastic resonance and its application to bearing fault diagnosis

Considering the random impulses of mechanical noise and the limitations involved while identifying mechanical fault impulse signals via traditional measurement indices of signal-to-noise ratio, which require the characteristic frequency to be known in advance, this study proposes an adaptive unsaturated stochastic resonance method employing maximum cross-correlated kurtosis as the signal detection index. The proposed method combines the features of a cross-correlated coefficient to indicate periodic fault transients and those of spectrum kurtosis to locate these transients in the frequency domain. Actual vibration signals collected from motor and gear bearings subjected to heavy noise are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Through a coarse tree-based machine learning method, the proposed method is verified to be more suitable for explaining the periodic impulse components of bearing signals, as compared to the ensemble empirical mode decomposition denoising method and unsaturated stochastic resonance using the kurtosis-intercorrelation index.     

An infrared image super-resolution reconstruction method based on compressive sensing

Limited by the properties of infrared detector and camera lens, infrared images are often detail missing and indistinct in vision. The spatial resolution needs to be improved to satisfy the requirements of practical application. Based on compressive sensing (CS) theory, this thesis presents a single image super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) method. With synthetically adopting image degradation model, difference operation-based sparse transformation method and orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm, the image SRR problem is transformed into a sparse signal reconstruction issue in CS theory. In our work, the sparse transformation matrix is obtained through difference operation to image, and, the measurement matrix is achieved analytically from the imaging principle of infrared camera. Therefore, the time consumption can be decreased compared with the redundant dictionary obtained by sample training such as K-SVD. The experimental results show that our method can achieve favorable performance and good stability with low algorithm complexity.
