A novel bearing fault diagnosis method based on multi-scale transfer symbolic dynamic entropy and support vector machine

Abstract

In view of the problem that the generalization ability of traditional data-driven fault diagnosis model declines or even fails in mechanical system diagnosis, a fault diagnosis method based on multi-scale transfer symbolic dynamic entropy and support vector machine is proposed based on the idea of transfer learning. Firstly, multi-scale symbolic dynamic entropy is used to extract fault features from measured vibration signals. And then a feature projection technique based on transfer learning is proposed, which reduces the data distribution difference. Secondly, the parameters of the multi-scale transfer symbol dynamic entropy method are optimized to improve the final fault identification rate. Then, the support vector machine can implement the fault identification. Finally, through the test of bearing fault experimental signals, the rolling bearing diagnosis method based on multi-scale transfer symbol dynamic entropy can effectively improve the generalization ability of data-driven model and realize accurate identification of different fault types of rolling bearing under a small number of samples.
