A hybrid deep learning model for fault diagnosis of rolling bearings using raw vibration signals

Abstract

The fault symptoms of rolling bearings are subject to various interferences in complex industrial environments, so achieving accurate, robust, and generalized fault diagnosis has become a key research direction. This article proposes a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method based on 1D-Inception-SE, which combines the 1D-Inception network model with Squeeze and Excitation Attention and can directly use the original vibration signals for fault diagnosis. The method incorporates the Adaptive Batch Normalization algorithm to enhance the model's generalization performance in the presence of noise interference and cross-load diagnostics. Performance tests on Paderborn University Bearing and Case Western Reserve University datasets show that our approach achieves superior recognition accuracy compared to other models under similar and varied loads, as well as different signal to noise ratio. Ablation and visualization tests confirm the rationality and effectiveness of the model structure.

“…Furthermore, Chen et al [24] used two vibration sensors to detect vibration signals from bearings and proposed a stacked denoising auto-encoder (SDAE) based on structural adaptation to handle noise in the vibration signals. Gong et al [25] and Jiang et al [26] combined deep learning with photovoltaic array fault diagnosis and rolling bearing vibration fault diagnosis, respectively. Deep learningbased fault diagnosis often requires a substantial amount of monitoring data.…”
