KERNEL NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVING EMBEDDING FOR CLASSIFICATION

The Neighborhood Preserving Embedding(NPE) algorithm is recently proposed as a new dimensionality reduction method.However, it is confined to linear transforms in the data space.For this, based on the NPE algorithm, a new nonlinear dimensionality reduction method is proposed, which can preserve the local structures of the data in the feature space.First, combined with the Mercer kernel, the solution to the weight matrix in the feature space is gotten and then the corresponding eigenvalue problem of the Kernel NPE(KNPE) method is deduced.Finally, the KNPE algorithm is resolved through a transformed optimization problem and QR decomposition.The experimental results on three real-world data sets show that the new method is better than NPE, Kernel PCA(KPCA) and Kernel LDA(KLDA) in performance.

Rolling bearing performance degradation evaluation by VMD and embedding selection-based NPE

In order to improve the incipient fault sensitivity and stability of degradation index in the rolling bearing performance degradation evaluation process,an embedding selection-based neighborhood preserving embedding(ESNPE)method is proposed.Firstly,the acquired vibration signals are decomposed by variational mode decomposition(VMD),and the singular value and relative energy of each intrinsic mode function(IMF)are extracted to form a high-dimensional feature set.Then,the NPE manifold learning method is used to extract the embedded features in the feature space.Considering the problem that useful embedding information is easily suppressed in NPE,an embedding selection strategy is built based on the Spearman correlation coefficient.The effectiveness of embeddings is measured by the coefficient absolute value,and useful embeddings are preserved in the early stage of bearing degradation by using the first-order difference method.Finally,the degradation index is established using the support vector data description(SVDD)model and bearing performance degradation evaluation is achieved.The proposed method was tested with the whole life experiment data of a rolling bearing,and the result was compared with the feature extraction methods of traditional principal component analysis(PCA)and NPE.The results show that the proposed method is superior in improving the incipient fault sensitivity and stability of the degradation index.
