Selective and Adaptive Incremental Transfer Learning with Multiple Datasets for Machine Fault Diagnosis

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 learning(SA-ITL),which fuses three algorithms,namely,the hybrid selective algorithm,the transferability enhancement algorithm,and the incremental transfer learning algorithm.It is a selective algorithm that enables selecting and ordering appropriate datasets for transfer learning and selecting useful knowledge to avoid negative transfer.The algorithm also adaptively adjusts the portion of training data to balance the learning rate and training time.The proposed algorithm is evaluated and analyzed using ten benchmark datasets.Compared with other algorithms from existing works,SA-ITL improves the accuracy of all datasets.Ablation studies present the accuracy enhancements of the SA-ITL,including the hybrid selective algorithm(1.22%-3.82%),transferability enhancement algorithm(1.91%-4.15%),and incremental transfer learning algorithm(0.605%-2.68%).These also show the benefits of enhancing the target model with heterogeneous image datasets that widen the range of domain selection between source and target domains.

Label Recovery and Trajectory Designable Network for Transfer Fault Diagnosis of Machines With Incorrect Annotation

The success of deep transfer learning in fault diagnosis is attributed to the collection of high-quality labeled data from the source domain.However,in engineering scenarios,achieving such high-quality label annotation is difficult and expensive.The incorrect label annotation produces two negative effects:1)the complex decision boundary of diagnosis models lowers the generalization performance on the target domain,and2)the distribution of target domain samples becomes misaligned with the false-labeled samples.To overcome these negative effects,this article proposes a solution called the label recovery and trajectory designable network(LRTDN).LRTDN consists of three parts.First,a residual network with dual classifiers is to learn features from cross-domain samples.Second,an annotation check module is constructed to generate a label anomaly indicator that could modify the abnormal labels of false-labeled samples in the source domain.With the training of relabeled samples,the complexity of diagnosis model is reduced via semi-supervised learning.Third,the adaptation trajectories are designed for sample distributions across domains.This ensures that the target domain samples are only adapted with the pure-labeled samples.The LRTDN is verified by two case studies,in which the diagnosis knowledge of bearings is transferred across different working conditions as well as different yet related machines.The results show that LRTDN offers a high diagnosis accuracy even in the presence of incorrect annotation.

Diagnosis of multiple faults using a double parallel two-hidden-layer extreme learning machine

Multiple faults are easily confused with single faults.In order to identify multiple faults more accurately,a highly efficient learning method is proposed based on a double parallel two-hidden-layer extreme learning machine,called DPTELM.The DPT-ELM method is a variant of an extreme learning machine(ELM).There are some issues with ELM.First,achieving a high accuracy requires too many hidden nodes;second,the direct connection between the input layer and the output layer is ignored.Accordingly,to deal with the above-mentioned problems,DPT-ELM extends the single-hidden-layer ELM to a two-hidden-layer ELM,which can achieve a desired performance with fewer hidden nodes.In addition,a direct connection is built between the input layer and the output layer.Since the input layer weights and the thresholds of the two hidden layers are determined randomly,this simplifies the improved model and shortens the calculation time.Additionally,to improve the signal to noise ratio(SNR),an adaptive waveform decomposition(AWD)algorithm is used to denoise the vibration signal.Then,the denoised signal is used to extract the eigenvalues by the time-domain and frequency-domain methods.Finally,the eigenvalues are input to the DPT-ELM classifier.In this paper,two groups of rolling bearing data at different speeds,which were collected from a real experimental platform,are used to test the method.Each set of data includes three single fault states,two complex fault states and a healthy state.The experimental results demonstrate that the DPT-ELM method achieves fast learning speed and a high accuracy.Moreover,based on 10-fold cross-validation,it proves to be an effective method to improve the accuracy with fewer hidden nodes.
