TL;DR: Four machine learning tools are applied to address the challenge in the IFDI of cutting arms and the experimental results show that the support vector machines based on dynamic cuckoo outperform the other methods.
Abstract: Incipient fault detection and identification (IFDI) of cutting arms is a crucial guarantee for the smooth operation of a roadheader. However, the shortage of fault samples restricts the application of the fault diagnosis technique, and the data analysis tools should be optimized efficiently. In this study, four machine learning tools (the back-propagation neural network based on genetic algorithm optimization, the naive Bayes based on genetic algorithm optimization, the support vector machines based on particle swarm optimization, and the support vector machines based on dynamic cuckoo) are applied to address the challenge in the IFDI of cutting arms. The commonly measured current and vibration data cutting arms are used in the IFDI. The experimental results show that the support vector machines based on dynamic cuckoo outperform the other methods. Besides, the performance of the four methods under different operating conditions is compared. The fault cause of cutting arms of the roadheader is analyzed and the design improvement scheme for cutting arms is provided. This study provides a reference for improving the fault diagnosis of the roadheader.

TL;DR: This paper presents a specific design and development for an actual big and diverse ecosystem of equipment, proposing an semi-unsupervised predictive maintenance system, and depicts the solution deployment, test and technological adoption of real-world military operative environments and validates the applicability.
Abstract: Predictive maintenance has lately proved to be a useful tool for optimizing costs, performance and systems availability. Furthermore, the greater and more complex the system, the higher the benefit but also the less applied: Architectural, computational and complexity limitations have historically ballasted the adoption of predictive maintenance on the biggest systems. This has been especially true in military systems where the security and criticality of the operations do not accept uncertainty. This paper describes the work conducted in addressing these challenges, aiming to evaluate its applicability in a real scenario: It presents a specific design and development for an actual big and diverse ecosystem of equipment, proposing an semi-unsupervised predictive maintenance system. In addition, it depicts the solution deployment, test and technological adoption of real-world military operative environments and validates the applicability.

TL;DR: In this article, a health state analysis method based on reference manifold learning and improved K-means clustering analysis was proposed; the method was verified by using the real-time collected roadheader cutting reducer fault signal.
Abstract: The safe and stable operation of roadheader is of great significance to the efficient and rapid production of a coal mine. Health diagnosis based on vibration signals has been studied in bearings and motors. Complex geological conditions and bad working environment lead to the characteristics of nonlinear and time-varying vibration signals of a roadheader. In this paper, a health state analysis method based on reference manifold (RM) learning and improved K-means clustering analysis was proposed; the method was verified by using the real-time collected roadheader cutting reducer fault signal. Firstly, the comparison signal and analysis signal were extracted from the actual collected vibration data of the roadheader, and the referential analysis samples were constructed through time domain and wavelet packet energy analysis. Then, the characteristic structure of the low-dimensional space of the referential analysis samples is obtained by Locally Linear Embedding (LLE), which is a method of manifold learning. Through the improved K-means clustering analysis method, the low-dimensional structure parameters were analyzed and the clustering effect index was obtained, which was used as the health evaluation index (HEI). Finally, the normal distribution model of the health evaluation index is established, and the confidence interval of the health evaluation index is determined, so as to realize the health state analysis of the roadheader and realize the fault warning function. Through the analysis of data of three sensors, the results show that the roadheader failed on the 15th day, which is consistent with the actual working condition. Through practical analysis, the effectiveness of the method was verified and provided a kind of fault analysis idea and method for equipment working under complex working conditions and the theoretical basis for fault type analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper , a fault diagnosis strategy that combines variational mode decomposition and a domain adaptive convolutional neural network is proposed to solve the problem of the different distributions of vibration data for roadheader bearings under variable working conditions.
Abstract: The roadheader is a core piece of equipment for underground mining. The roadheader bearing, as its key component, often works under complex working conditions and bears large radial and axial forces. Its health is critical to efficient and safe underground operation. The early failure of a roadheader bearing has weak impact characteristics and is often submerged in complex and strong background noise. Therefore, a fault diagnosis strategy that combines variational mode decomposition and a domain adaptive convolutional neural network is proposed in this paper. To start with, VMD is utilized to decompose the collected vibration signals to obtain the sub-component IMF. Then, the kurtosis index of IMF is calculated, with the maximum index value chosen as the input of the neural network. A deep transfer learning strategy is introduced to solve the problem of the different distributions of vibration data for roadheader bearings under variable working conditions. This method was implemented in the actual bearing fault diagnosis of a roadheader. The experimental results indicate that the method is superior in terms of diagnostic accuracy and has practical engineering application value.

TL;DR: Six learning algorithms including biogeography-based optimization, particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, evolutionary strategy, and population-based incremental learning are used to train a new dendritic neuron model (DNM) and are suggested to make DNM more powerful in solving classification, approximation, and prediction problems.
Abstract: An artificial neural network (ANN) that mimics the information processing mechanisms and procedures of neurons in human brains has achieved a great success in many fields, e.g., classification, prediction, and control. However, traditional ANNs suffer from many problems, such as the hard understanding problem, the slow and difficult training problems, and the difficulty to scale them up. These problems motivate us to develop a new dendritic neuron model (DNM) by considering the nonlinearity of synapses, not only for a better understanding of a biological neuronal system, but also for providing a more useful method for solving practical problems. To achieve its better performance for solving problems, six learning algorithms including biogeography-based optimization, particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, evolutionary strategy, and population-based incremental learning are for the first time used to train it. The best combination of its user-defined parameters has been systemically investigated by using the Taguchi’s experimental design method. The experiments on 14 different problems involving classification, approximation, and prediction are conducted by using a multilayer perceptron and the proposed DNM. The results suggest that the proposed learning algorithms are effective and promising for training DNM and thus make DNM more powerful in solving classification, approximation, and prediction problems.

TL;DR: Effectiveness and feasibility of the 1D CNN based fault diagnosis method is validated by applying it to two commonly used benchmark real vibration data sets and comparing the results with the other competing intelligent fault diagnosis methods.
Abstract: Timely and accurate bearing fault detection and diagnosis is important for reliable and safe operation of industrial systems. In this study, performance of a generic real-time induction bearing fault diagnosis system employing compact adaptive 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifier is extensively studied. In the literature, although many studies have developed highly accurate algorithms for detecting bearing faults, their results have generally been limited to relatively small train/test data sets. As opposed to conventional intelligent fault diagnosis systems that usually encapsulate feature extraction, feature selection and classification as distinct blocks, the proposed system takes directly raw time-series sensor data as input and it can efficiently learn optimal features with the proper training. The main advantages of the 1D CNN based approach are 1) its compact architecture configuration (rather than the complex deep architectures) which performs only 1D convolutions making it suitable for real-time fault detection and monitoring, 2) its cost effective and practical real-time hardware implementation, 3) its ability to work without any pre-determined transformation (such as FFT or DWT), hand-crafted feature extraction and feature selection, and 4) its capability to provide efficient training of the classifier with limited size of training data set and limited number of BP iterations. Effectiveness and feasibility of the 1D CNN based fault diagnosis method is validated by applying it to two commonly used benchmark real vibration data sets and comparing the results with the other competing intelligent fault diagnosis methods.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the EMMSIQDE is significantly better than the DE, QDE, QGA, and MSIQDE, and has better optimization ability, scalability, efficiency, and stability.
Abstract: Quantum-inspired differential evolution (QDE) is an evolutionary algorithm, which can effectively solve complex optimization problems. However, sometimes, it easily leads to premature convergence and low search ability and falls to local optima. To overcome these problems, based on the MSIQDE (improved QDE with multistrategies) algorithm, an enhanced MSIQDE algorithm based on mixing multiple strategies, namely, EMMSIQDE is proposed in this article. In the EMMSIQDE, a new differential mutation strategy of a difference vector is proposed to enhance the search ability and descent ability. Then, a new multipopulation mutation evolution mechanism is designed to ensure the relative independence of each subpopulation and the population diversity. The feasible solution space transformation strategy is used to achieve the optimal solution by mapping the quantum chromosome from a unit space to solution space. Finally, some multidimensional unimodal and multimodal functions are selected to demonstrate the optimization performance of EMMSIQDE. The results demonstrate that the EMMSIQDE is significantly better than the DE, QDE, QGA, and MSIQDE, and has better optimization ability, scalability, efficiency, and stability.

TL;DR: The proposed PCA-EPFs method for HSI classification sharply improves the accuracy of the SVM classifier with respect to the standard edge-preserving filtering-based feature extraction method, and other widely used spectral-spatial classifiers.
Abstract: Edge-preserving features (EPFs) obtained by the application of edge-preserving filters to hyperspectral images (HSIs) have been found very effective in characterizing significant spectral and spatial structures of objects in a scene. However, a direct use of the EPFs can be insufficient to provide a complete characterization of spatial information when objects of different scales are present in the considered images. Furthermore, the edge-preserving smoothing operation unavoidably decreases the spectral differences among objects of different classes, which may affect the following classification. To overcome these problems, in this paper, a novel principal component analysis (PCA)-based EPFs (PCA-EPFs) method for HSI classification is proposed, which consists of the following steps. First, the standard EPFs are constructed by applying edge-preserving filters with different parameter settings to the considered image, and the resulting EPFs are stacked together. Next, the spectral dimension of the stacked EPFs is reduced with the PCA, which not only can represent the EPFs in the mean square sense but also highlight the separability of pixels in the EPFs. Finally, the resulting PCA-EPFs are classified by a support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Experiments performed on several real hyperspectral data sets show the effectiveness of the proposed PCA-EPFs, which sharply improves the accuracy of the SVM classifier with respect to the standard edge-preserving filtering-based feature extraction method, and other widely used spectral-spatial classifiers.
